Starting point is 00:00:00 Hey guys, I'm Kate Max. You might know me from my popular online series, The Running Interview Show, where I run with celebrities, athletes, entrepreneurs, and more. After those runs, the conversations keep going. That's what my podcast, Post Run High, is all about. It's a chance to sit down with my guests and dive even deeper into their stories, their journeys, and the thoughts that arise once we've hit the pavement together. Listen to Post Run High on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.
Starting point is 00:00:36 Hey y'all, Nimany here. I'm the host of a brand new history podcast for kids and families called Historical Records. Executive produced by Questlove, The Story Pirates, and John Glickman, Historical Records brings history to life through hip-hop. Flash, slam, another one gone. Bash, bam, another one gone. The crack of the bat and another one gone. The tip of the cap, there's another one gone. Each episode is about a different inspiring figure from history.
Starting point is 00:01:06 Like this one about Claudette Colvin, a 15-year-old girl in Alabama who refused to give up her seat on the city bus nine whole months before Rosa Parks did the same thing. Check it. And it began with me. Did you know, did you know? I wouldn't give up my seat. Nine months before Rosa, it was Claudette Colvin. Get the kids in your life excited about history by tuning in to Historical Records.
Starting point is 00:01:31 Because in order to make history, you have to make some noise. Listen to Historical Records on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Hi, I'm Dani Shapiro, host of the hit podcast, Family Secrets. How would you feel if when you met your biological father for the first time, he didn't even say hello?

Starting point is 00:03:30 were up last night watching the Senate runoff. You gotta salute everybody from Stacey Abrams and Fair Fight to the New Georgia Project. Reading articles like the one Rolling Stone wrote about Atlanta rappers reigniting their role as political kingmakers.
Starting point is 00:03:46 Like, it's really a beautiful thing to see black political culture grow and thrive and become a real thing in Georgia. That's right. And one citizen has been confirmed, right? Reverend Raphael. So far, the projected winner, yes, is Warnock. And he'll be the first black man to be a senator in Georgia. And they say John Ossoff has a shot at winning, right?
Starting point is 00:04:08 He's in the lead right now. He was in the lead when I went to bed, yeah. Yeah, so he still is, but we'll get all into that in Front Page News. It's exciting. Yeah, I was watching that last night and then I turned and I had to catch up on Power, man. Power Book 2.

But, man, I really like Power Goes To, Book Two, whatever it's called. I really enjoy that show. Power Book Two. Power Book Two, yeah. I really enjoy the cast of that show.

And you know, what you'll like about Bridgerton is the way that it looks. You can tell they spent a crazy amount of money and even just the costumes and the setting. They're definitely going to win some type of Oscars for that show because it is over the top. I'm going to start watching it today, actually.
Starting point is 00:05:37 I'm going to check it out today. Alright, well, what else we got in front page news? What else we talking about? Well, let's talk about since we're discussing first, we'll talk about the first black woman to coach a professional baseball team. Okay. All right. We'll get into that next. Keep it locked.
Starting point is 00:05:51 It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. Hey, Roddy Rich said don't play his record anymore. Even he's tired of hearing it. Good morning, everybody. It's DJ, MG, Angela Yee, Charlamagne, the guy we are, the Breakfast Club. Let's get into some front page news. Where we starting, Yee? Well, the Bostona Guy, We Are The Breakfast Club. Let's get in some front page news.
Starting point is 00:06:05 Where we starting, Yee? Well, the Boston Red Sox have hired Bianca Smith. She is the first black woman to coach a professional baseball team. So congratulations to her. Wow, that's dope. That's amazing. Now, the Red Sox posted on Instagram, Bianca Smith will be joining the Red Sox organization this season, making her the first black woman to coach in professional baseball history.
Starting point is 00:06:27 She did work as director of baseball operations at Case Western Reserve University from 2013 to 2017. And as an assistant coach at the University of Dallas in 2018. She also interned with the Texas Rangers and Cincinnati Reds in their baseball operations department. That's got to piss off those white people in Boston. You know what I mean? But they'll be okay once you start winning. All right. Now let's discuss these Georgia Senate runoff elections.
Starting point is 00:06:56 So according to projections, they do project that Democrat Raphael Warnock will win the special Senate runoff election against Kelly Loeffler. And as far as David Perdue and John Ossoff, Ossoff is a Democrat, that is still up in the air. They are still counting ballots. They'll continue to tabulate those votes throughout this morning. And so it's still Ossoff in the lead, but it's not a race they can call yet. Hey, man, if he won, he won, he won.
Starting point is 00:07:26 Yeah, so here is his speech where he is the projected winner. Like we said, some people have already declared him the winner. Here's what he said. We were told that we couldn't win this election, but tonight we prove that with hope, hard work, and the people by our side, anything is possible. May my story be an inspiration to some young person who is trying to grasp and grab hold of the American dream. And so Georgia, I am honored by the faith that you have shown in me. And I promise you this tonight, I am going to the Senate
Starting point is 00:08:01 to work for all of Georgia. Wow. Listen, if Ralph Warnock said he won, he won. Drop one of Clues' bombs for black political supporters driving in Georgia. And regardless of how it goes for John Ossoff, black people in Georgia did that. And as our board op drama couldn't wait to tell us this morning, Latinos showed up as well. Yep. First of all, my name is Dramos. But yes, we did show up. What did I say?
Starting point is 00:08:26 You said drama. You did drama. It doesn't work on this show. You know why? No, no, no, no, no. You know why? You know why? Because I was literally talking to drama.
Starting point is 00:08:32 I was talking to drama last night. That's literally why I said that. You're right. I forgot your name. Well, Warnock will be the first black U.S. senator from Georgia. Also the first Georgia Democrat elected to the Senate in 20 years. So it just shows you that change can be slow, but it can happen. So for everybody out there pushing.
Starting point is 00:08:52 Now, Kelly Loeffler has not conceded this election yet. And here is what she told her supporters. We're going to make sure every vote is counted. That's right. Every legal vote will be counted. And I'm not going to stop working in the morning. In fact, I'm going to be heading to Washington, D.C. to keep fighting. We're going to fight for this president. So I'm asking for every single Georgian, every single American stay in the fight with us. Kelly Loeffler campaigned with a Klansman.
Starting point is 00:09:28 I have no idea if that's true. I saw John also say that yesterday, and it sounded amazing. It sounded amazing when he was in front of that bus and he said that. He said, Kelly Loeffler campaigned with a Klansman. I don't know if it's the alliteration of the case, but it sounded amazing. My goodness. All right. Well, they are still counting those absentee ballots,
Starting point is 00:09:46 and then they do have to manually scan some ballots in DeKalb County, so that is still going into the total vote count. So we'll keep you updated. All right.

Starting point is 00:16:03 So I had a random question. It's January right now, but Target is celebrating Black History Month like a whole month early. They have a bunch of merch out right now. Some of the shirts say like super cute stuff like black is beautiful. There's hoodies and everything like that. I just want to know how it would be. Okay, literally, I was like, I don't know how it would be perceived. Like, would it be weird if, like, some white girl just had, like, a hoodie that said black is beautiful or, like. Nah, you can wear that. Okay.
Starting point is 00:16:33 I'm going to tell you something else. I wanted to ask you more. Yeah. I'm going to tell you something. Why not create, I mean, I think you should wear that stuff, too, but why not create your own line of, like, ally clothing? Like, you know, affirmations that white people can say and show their support. Some of my best friends are black.
Starting point is 00:16:49 No, don't listen to her. Don't listen to me. I love black people, you know, black, black, black. I wear a shirt that says black lives matter. Black people's lives matter. Black people's lives matter. Things like that. I'm currently using a project as an uber eats and door dash driver i came up with these little like homeless kids and downtown jacksonville happens to have like a ton of homeless people
Starting point is 00:17:14 and so i've been using the hashtag kindness in motion just to help people like spread the word but i've also been using that as like a black lives matter thing too because a lot of the homeless population happens to be black downtown. So I'm just like, you know, I didn't know if wearing the hoodie would be overkill or not, but I'm glad to know that I can wear it. All right. Show your support in any way that you can.

You probably forgot away. I don't know. No, I'm home. I cannot hang up on anybody at home. That is Dramos.
Starting point is 00:19:38 Dramos is going to cry in the car when he realizes he hung up on a fellow Latino to show his rap dreams. That was a Latino man. No, that was an African-American, sir. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. You got to claim it.

Yes, and so much happened yesterday, but let's start off with Dr. Dre. He had a brain aneurysm, and he has already commented.
Starting point is 00:20:35 We'll tell you what he said. All right, we'll get into that next. Oh, and by the way, by the way, by the way, for the record, Latino Tyrones are Tito's. Okay, I drink Tito's. Just make some stuff up, boy. You're right. Y'all are racist, man. Oh, we racist? I heard Latino Tyrone's Artitos. Okay. I drink Tito's. Make some stuff up, boy. All right. Y'all are racist, man.
Starting point is 00:20:49 Oh, we racist? But you hang up on the black guy? You hung up on the man. He said Envy be hanging up on people. Shut up. All right. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning.
Starting point is 00:20:58 The Breakfast Club. 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 Dr. Dre. Listen up. It's just in.
Starting point is 00:21:12 All the gossip. Gossip. The rumor report. Gossip. Gossip. With Angela Yee. It's the rumor report. The Breakfast Club. Well, in the midst of all the divorce drama that he's having,
Starting point is 00:21:24 Dr. Dre has suffered a brain aneurysm. He was rushed by ambulance to the hospital, taken directly to ICU. They said he remains there. He's stable and lucid. But doctors don't know what caused the bleeding. They are doing a bunch of different tests right now. So he did post on his account, just to let people know on his Instagram, thanks to my family, friends, and fans for their interest and well wishes.
Starting point is 00:21:48 I'm doing great and getting excellent care from my medical team. I will be out of the hospital and back home soon. Shout out to all the great medical professionals at Cedars One Love. Question. Amen. Does anybody know how they figured it out? Was it headaches? Was it, you know, how they, because I'm the type of person that I want to know.
Starting point is 00:22:07 So if I ever have any of those feelings of pains or something that seems strange that I'd be like, okay, I'm going to the doctor right now. Do we know? Well, no. We don't know what happened in his particular case. Okay. But it's usually headaches, man. And God bless that brother because brain aneurysms are scary. I've definitely been to the doctor for headaches and had them do the MRI, making sure everything was good.
Starting point is 00:22:27 And I didn't have an aneurysm because from what I've always been told, they come out of nowhere. Right. I wouldn't wish that on you. And you know what's crazy is Coach Jessie, who's been on the show before from the detox now, she actually had an aneurysm during this pandemic and was in the hospital. And she had these really bad headaches. She said the only reason she made them keep her in the hospital because she's very aware of her body and she knows a lot about that. And they tried to send her home.
Starting point is 00:22:57 And later on, if she would have went home, she would have died because she ended up having an aneurysm. But fortunately, she knew enough to know that this was not an ordinary headache and stayed in the hospital. And also salute to Dr. Dre for surviving Cedars-Sinai Hospital, because for whatever reason, rappers go to Cedars-Sinai, and they don't always come out. Remember when Ice Cube was on Breakfast Club, and he told us that Biggie, Eazy-E, Heavy D, all passed away in Cedars-Sinai Hospital. All right, now let's discuss voting in Georgia.
Starting point is 00:23:23 We told you before, Tyler Perry was having some issues, and we discussed this with Stacey Abrams. He never got his absentee ballot. He waited for more than a month for it, so he ended up having to fly back and vote in person in Georgia. Now, another person who also voted is Boosie. Here's what he had to say. I'm looking for a change.
Starting point is 00:23:43 I'm looking for a change. If I'm voting, everybody needs to vote. I've been watching that runoff. I'm fin for a change. I'm looking for a change. If I'm voting everybody need to vote. I've been watching that runoff. I'm finna vote, man. That man finna change some s***. I'm telling y'all, I'm voting for Warnock. Alright. Hey, man. I love to see black political culture thrive in Georgia, man. And I'm telling you, the only people
Starting point is 00:24:00 who can ruin the enthusiasm that black people have for politics in Georgia is the Democrats. Because if they get control of the Senate and they don't keep these promises to black people, the way that they say that they're going to do, boy, it's going to be a lot of people who are heartbroken after these past couple elections. Presidential and... Right.
Starting point is 00:24:21 But as like Stacey Abrams said, that's why it is so important right now, because we know how difficult it's been, like when Obama was in office, to get things voted through in the Senate because even just because if you have a majority, that still doesn't mean things will pass. Correct. So it does take a collective effort.
Starting point is 00:24:36 In this case, it will because if they get the majority, the tiebreaker is Senator Kamala Harris. Kamala Harris is correct. That's right. So in this case, it absolutely will. Well, yeah, so everybody just has to be on board. Everybody.
Starting point is 00:24:49 Now, Joy Behar and Meghan McCain were arguing on The View, and this is all over politics. Listen to this. The Republican Party is in much more trouble right now because you have really traitors. You have AOC saying she's going to primary judge tomorrow. Excuse me, am I done? I'm not done.
Starting point is 00:25:04 I know what you're saying. I'm talking about, I'm talking about. You missed me so much, Joy. You missed me so much when I was on maternity leave. You missed me so much. You missed fighting with me. I did not. Don't act like you missed fighting with me.
Starting point is 00:25:15 I did not miss you. Okay, somebody answer the question. You know what, that's so nasty. Wow. Hey, listen. One thing I'm not doing in 2021 Is arguing over politics Whatever your politics are that's on you I'm not into changing minds
Starting point is 00:25:32 I'm into changing who's in those positions of power in politics If I don't like what a politician is doing I would just actively support a politician I do Not arguing with people about their politics Don't ever argue with people about their politics Their religion or their hip hop Let them do their thing Alright the Grammys have been rescheduled from until March 14th, and that's because of coronavirus related concerns. So, you know,
Starting point is 00:25:55 LA has been having a really difficult time and they said right now hospital services are overwhelmed. ICUs have reached capacity and now new guidance from state and local governments have led them to believe that postponing the show was the right thing to do. It was supposed to be on January 31st, hosted by Trevor Noah, but now they are actually going to postpone that.
Starting point is 00:26:17 The Grammys didn't learn anything from other award shows? They didn't learn how to execute an award show by watching other award shows. I mean, because clearly they weren't affected last year because, you know, they're in February. So they were on TV last year. They did it regular, normal. Right.
Starting point is 00:26:35 Right. So they said they also are not sure what they're doing with the audience. They said we're going to determine as we get a little bit closer what we're going to do with our audience. But we have some really cool and special things that are coming together for our show. I think part of it is also, though, they've shut down production period in L.A. And a lot of people live in L.A. So even if you want to send people to different locations,
Starting point is 00:26:55 everything is shut down. So maybe they didn't have to see that happening. Easy fix, Grammys. Just have it in Atlanta. Okay? Everything else is open in Atlanta. Allys. Just have it in Atlanta. Okay? Everything else is open in Atlanta. Alright? Just have it in Atlanta. Or Miami. Go to these places that are wide open.
Starting point is 00:27:14 But a lot of these actors live there, so they might have been doing things from different locations, and if you don't want to have, you know, a crew around, that might be kind of difficult right now to get everybody to go somewhere else to film. So I'm not sure, you know, what their plans were. But right now, you got to wait till March to find out. All right. Well, that is your rumor report. I'm Angela Yee.
Starting point is 00:27:33 All right. Now we got front page news coming up. What are we talking about? Yes, we are going to be talking about Jacob Blake. And we'll tell you what's happening with the police officer who shot Jacob Blake. All right. We'll get into that next. Keep it locked. This is The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club.

Mountain Dew is partnering with HBCUs in an effort to uplift the next generation of badass black innovators and entrepreneurs with the Real Change Opportunity Fund Pitch Competition, empowering students to go out and do. Visit MountainDew.com slash real change to enter jnv angela yee charlamagne the guy we are the breakfast club and we got a shout out to our newest family member 97.3 the beat springfields hip-hop and r&b good morning good morning how's everybody's 2021 going so far? All right, good.
Starting point is 00:28:25 Now let's get in some front page news. Where we starting, Ye? Well, let's start with talking about Jacob Blake. Now there are going to be no charges against the Kenosha police officer in the Jacob Blake shooting. Rustin Escheski is his name. Now here is the Kenosha County District Attorney discussing why this is happening. An exhaustive investigation was done and it is my decision now that I announce today before you that no Kenosha law enforcement officer in this case will be charged with any criminal
Starting point is 00:28:59 offense based on the facts and the laws as I will describe them to you now. I'm going to also tell you that no charge will be filed against Jacob Blake in regards to this incident as well. All right, now just to give you guys a reminder of what happened, they said that Blake had a felony warrant. They said that Blake had a felony warrant out for sexual assault. They said that the mother of Blake's children called the police and said that he was about to drive off in her car. They arrived to find him placing their three children in the backseat of the SUV. According to the district attorney, they said officers had no choice but to arrest him since he was wanted.
Starting point is 00:29:39 They said that Blake resisted, fought with the officers as they tried to handcuff him. They used a stun gun on him. It didn't work. And that's when they said that Blake had a knife that fell to the ground during the struggle, picked it up. And that's when officers drew their guns. And they said Blake then tried to get into the SUV. And that's when Chesky, the officer who's not being charged, grabbed the back of Blake's shirt. And Blake turned and moved with the knife toward Chesky. And they said that the officer believed that his life was in danger. grabbed the back of Blake's shirt and Blake turned and moved with the knife toward Chesky.
Starting point is 00:30:08 And they said that the officer believed that his life was in danger. Now, there were no body cameras. So mind you, this is just what they are saying. The police officers are saying happened. Now, on his behalf, a lot of people are saying they did not see a knife. And according to Ben Crump, they said that this is who's their attorney, the family's attorney. Jacob Blake's family's attorney said that this further destroys trust trust in our system and he would proceed with a lawsuit. They're planning to take this to the highest court right now.
Starting point is 00:30:31 And he also questioned whether Blake did threaten Chesky with a knife. They said nowhere does video footage show a knife extended and aimed to establish the requisite intent. Yeah, the video shows Jacob Blake getting shot in his back. I mean, that's the video that I saw, you know. Was there a knife found? They said there, you know. Was there a knife found? They said there was no knife. Was there a knife found?
Starting point is 00:30:49 I think there was a knife found in the car, but they can't prove that he had it. Gotcha. I believe. All right, now here's what the district attorney had to say about self-defense. Remember, these are police officers who are uniformed officers. They're called to the scene on a designated domestic abuse call. When they get there, they know there is an arrest warrant for Jacob Blake, and they take actions at that time.
Starting point is 00:31:12 And the question, really the only issue in this case, would be do they have a right to the privilege of self-defense? Hey man, listen, the judicial system worked to perfection again for the people it's designed to work for You can never expect a system built on white supremacy To serve justice to black people So for me it's not about the individual case It's about dismantling the whole system of white supremacy Is that possible? I don't know
Starting point is 00:31:37 The system also tells me that all things are possible Through white Jesus who strengthens me So I doubt it I doubt it Alright, well while Jacob Blake is alive, in case you don't know this, he is paralyzed. And so obviously that affects him
Starting point is 00:31:50 for the rest of his life. All right. Now, it's a rollout disaster for the vaccines for COVID-19. They said more than 70% of the COVID-19 vaccines are sitting in freezers in the United States
Starting point is 00:32:04 because the rollout has been so awful. And Florida, in Florida, senior citizens have been camping out overnight trying to get their shot. So they did get more than 1.1 million vaccines, but they've only administered about 260,000 in Florida. And nationwide, only 4.8 million people have gotten their first dose out of the more than 17 million delivered. So that only about 28 percent yeah because i was uh i was actually talking to some people in jersey yesterday some ogs in jersey and um they were telling me that what they were debating about whether or not health care workers were the only people that could get the vaccine and one of the
Starting point is 00:32:37 guys said no you can get it now because if you if they don't distribute it it spoils like it's no good so it has to be in a freezer it has to be it depends which one it is whether it's pfizer or the other one i know one has to be like colder than usual and the other one is more just a regular fridge a regular freezer so they have to definitely get them out yeah i think they might have tricked me into the vaccine when i was out the country i'm not gonna lie because on on New Year's Day, they had these IVs. Because, you know, people are mad. People are drinking on New Year's Eve and having a good time. So they had these IVs that they said were like vitamin, the drip.
Starting point is 00:33:13 So me and my wife went to get one. And I'm sitting there like, yo, what if just that vaccine and we don't know it, yo? But I don't have time. You're bugging, yo. What's wrong with you? I don't know. What is wrong with you, man? That's where my mind went, yo. We were sitting there getting the IV drip. And I'm like. You don't know time. You're bugging, yo. What's wrong with you? I don't know. What is wrong with you, man? That's where my mind went, y'all.
Starting point is 00:33:26 We were sitting there getting the IV drip, and I'm like... You don't know what's in that drip. What if it's the vaccine and we don't know it? It's possible. Well, you're safe then. Maybe. I'm getting the vaccine.
Starting point is 00:33:37 I'm just waiting to see what happens. Who's available for me? I'm going to get that vaccine. Listen, you might have to get it if you want to travel out of the country. If you want to go to school, they're saying they might make all kinds of regulations to concerts. They might force you to have to get that vaccine. I'm getting it first.
Starting point is 00:33:53 As soon as I can, I'm getting it. You allegedly can get it in Jersey now from what they were telling me yesterday. You got to go like one in the morning or something like that. No, I thought they said only healthcare and elderly people at first. Yeah, I thought it was only at first because it's so few. But they're saying that if they don't give it out, then it spoils. So basically, they're encouraging people. Cite your sources, bro.
Starting point is 00:34:17 Who said this? Who can I call? Cite your sources, man. My dude at the Chevy dealership. My dude at the Chevy dealership. My dude. He Chevy dealership My dude at the Chevy dealership My dude He is man Why you laughing at the OG man I'm looking on NJ

Pull up where you do the oil change? Just give me some oil change and a vaccine to go? Oh, my goodness. I'm just telling you what the screen is saying.

Now, if you just joined us, we're talking about women in hip hop. Now, Kamiya, who's an artist from the Bay Area, was signed to YG.
Starting point is 00:41:15 I don't know if she's signed to YG anymore. She's independent. Yeah, she's independent. Now, let's play a little clip of her record if you don't know who Kamiya is. Please, please tell me why you always leave. Why you wait? Please tell me why you always leave. Please, please tell me why you always leave. Why you wait? Okamiya is. All right. That's YG and Drake?
Starting point is 00:41:35 Yes, that's YG and Drake. That's not her biggest record. Her biggest record is her single. It was called How Does It Feel, which is the record that was spinning across the country. How does a record with Drake not be her biggest record? Well, that was actually YG's record featuring Drake. It's YG's record. And she was on it.
Starting point is 00:41:49 Oh. And she also was really cool with Kehlani, remember? And then they had like a falling out. They were supposed to do an album together, I believe. But anyway, this is what she said. Y'all put these unrealistic standards on women, right? Well, y'all try to force us to f***ing kumbaya whole hands. Y'all not telling all the men that they gotta form
Starting point is 00:42:05 f***ing brother circles. All not gonna like each other and that's just realistic. You feel me? And then you get the people who gonna pretend like they like people because they feel like
Starting point is 00:42:12 that's what they have to do. I don't never wanna be that type of person because I feel like if I don't f***ing like you, I don't f***ing like you. And that's why I told them because it's like,
Starting point is 00:42:19 y'all can't keep forcing that on women. A lot of people don't like each other but they're not gonna come out and be like, I don't f*** with her. Because if they say they don't f*** with her, guess what? Now she's a hater. Now she's this. Now she's f***ing up the unity amongst everybody.
Starting point is 00:42:31 So we're asking 800-585-1051. What are your thoughts on what she said? Let's start with you, Yee. So it's interesting because we had a whole conversation about this on lip service the other day with Renny Rucciucci and she was discussing the same thing she was saying all these people try to act all these women act like they support you but then as soon as there's an opportunity for them to drag you down they do and that's how they really feel in real life now I can't say what it's like to be a female rapper because I'm sure there's a lot going on but you know I am working on this documentary with these female rappers from Detroit and all the things that they go through.
Starting point is 00:43:05 And I will say it's a lot harder for women. They always do pit women against each other. And a lot of times it's a lack of communication. Like this person said this about you. Then the fans jump in and they escalate things and then people don't end up communicating with each other. I do feel like you don't have to be friends with people, but at least try to be cordial. And sometimes, you know, even just work wise, they might not be your friend, but that's somebody that you could support and like work with. And so, you know, it's just harder. I just feel like it's harder. It's so much more difficult because there's so many there's so fewer women that are actually doing it that you have to feel like you're out there by yourself. It just makes it so much more difficult. So I would love for women to get along. I've been watching these women arguing on social media over the holidays.
Starting point is 00:43:49 And it's a lot of trauma that's associated with being a woman in this business, with guys trying you, with people not believing in you, with people accusing you of not writing your own lyrics. It's just a lot. So I would love for women to get along more. You know what? And maybe I'm different, but I came from a place where hip hop was about
Starting point is 00:44:05 competitiveness and you battled everybody. And it wasn't about beef and shooting people, but everybody battled. We can go back to, you know, Kairos One and the Juice Crew, or we can go to Common and West Side Connection or Kool Moe D and LL Cool J. And we can bring it up to closer to Cannabis and LL Cool J and Tupac and Biggie, Jay-Z and Nas. It was always about competing. We didn't have to, you know, shoot each other and stab each other. But hip hop was always about who was the best, who was the hottest. You know, we could go back to Lil' Kim and Foxy Brown.
Starting point is 00:44:35 That's what I thought hip hop was about. Not necessarily. But you could be competitive and get along with each other, right? Not really. No. Not really. No. I mean, it's just work. you don't have to you you don't
Starting point is 00:44:47 have to like drag it you can still be competitive i mean there's friendly competition but for the most part it's not and you know as far as what she said i reserve the right to not deal with anyone i don't vibe with i don't care if they black uh i don't care if they men i don't care if they from south carolina i don't care if we the same age, if we in the same business. Whatever things we have in common doesn't matter to me if I don't vibe with your energy. So I don't think she's wrong. I mean, unity and group operation is great,
Starting point is 00:45:14 but you have to be unified and move as a group with folks you actually vibe with. It's always been cruise. It's always been competition. That's hip hop. That's life. I don't see a problem with her saying that. I just think for women too, they always act like there's only one woman that could be on top at a time. And every
Starting point is 00:45:30 woman is like, oh, now she's coming to take you down. Now she's coming to take you down. When y'all could be successful together. That's why I love seeing like Cardi working with Meg Thee Stallion and Nicki working with Meg Thee Stallion. I think that is a great example. But I think that's in men too. I think at one time like Jay-Z was on
Starting point is 00:45:46 top and everybody tried to take his crown off and now it's, you know, we have a conversation with Drake the Bass or the little baby or Kendrick. I mean, I think we have those conversations for men and women. We just I think people play to be the best. Not to be the second best, not to be the third best. They play to be the best, in my opinion. And we're
Starting point is 00:46:01 always going to pit the two people who are at the top at any given moment. The two or three people who are at the top at any given moment, it's always going to be, well, this person's better. This person sold more records. This person got more radio hits. It's always going to be that.
Starting point is 00:46:15 I just like when people take people under their wing. Like, if you're an older artist, and then you can help out a younger artist, and I like to see that. I just like to see it happen. As a woman, I enjoy that. Yeah, but that has nothing to do with the battle of the two people.
Starting point is 00:46:27 Like, you know, when they pitted Ricky versus Cardi, you know what I mean? That was who was the hottest, who was the best. Like, that's who it was. I mean... I don't think you can't not be the hottest, but as far as like dissing each other
Starting point is 00:46:38 and not getting along, like personally... That's always been hip-hop. I think you got to leave. That just doesn't stay to women. That's been since The beginning of hip hop But let's go to the phone lines 800-585-1051
Starting point is 00:46:50 Hello who's this? Y'all this is City T-Shit What's up T-Shit I don't think he said City I think he said City No it's City City
Starting point is 00:46:58 City not T-Shit City Oh City City Okay my bad Morning brother What's your comment On what Kamiya said?
Starting point is 00:47:06 Well, hey, I mean, a lot of these females are trash. Excuse me. Oh, my gosh. And here we go. In fact, Megan Stallion is one of the trash rappers. She is not a trash rapper. And a lot of these guys are trash rappers, too. There's a lot more of them.
Starting point is 00:47:21 She's not trash. Trash rapper, definitely. Her, definitely. So there's just not enough unity and never will be with the females and there never should be because there's too many different lanes. You see what I mean?
Starting point is 00:47:33 Somebody might want to be a thot. Where you from, bro? Conscious rapper. You just sound like a disgusting, misogynistic person. Where you from? No, I'm just from down south. You know what I mean? I just love a good music ear and Meg the Stallion, again, is trash. So I'm just from down south. You know what I mean? But I just love a good music ear.
Starting point is 00:47:45 And Meg the Stallion, again, is trash. So I'm throwing it out there. Who's your favorite female rapper? I'm going to say Missy Elliott. No, I'm going to go there. We only want that smoke, Angela Lee. So Missy Elliott. Who is Angela Lee?
Starting point is 00:48:02 You know what I meant to say. Angela Yee, Yee Lee. You know what I meant to say. Angela Lee. By the way, that's a great example. But, you know, somebody like Missy, you know, back in the day, I guess they had a better vibe with each other. That's why you get records like Ladies Night, you know. Yeah, that's true too. When they would all collaborate together.
Starting point is 00:48:24 Right. But thank you, brother. 800-585-1051. What are your thoughts with what Kamiya said? Call us now. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. I know it now.

Let's hear what she said. Y'all put these unrealistic standards on women, right? Well, y'all try to force us to f***ing kumbaya, y'all hold hands. Y'all not telling all the men that they got to form f***ing brother circles.
Starting point is 00:49:16 All not going to like each other, and that's just realistic. You feel me? And then you get the people who are going to pretend like they like people because they feel like that's what they have to do. I don't never want to be that type of person because I feel like if I don't f***ing like you,
Starting point is 00:49:26 I don't f***ing like you. And that's why I told them because it's like y'all can't keep forcing that on women. A lot of people don't like each other, but they're not going to come out and be like, I don't f*** with her. Because if they say they don't f*** with her, guess what?
Starting point is 00:49:37 Now she's a hater. Now she's this. Now she's f***ing up the unity amongst everybody. Now also, Yeeby, we're talking about another female rapper, right? Yes, Rennie Rucci, and she was discussing a similar topic on lip service. Here's what she said. I want females
Starting point is 00:49:50 on it, but you know everybody be online kicking that whole girl power and we need to work together. It's unity and we need I'm happy for everybody. That should be on the internet. Bitches really don't be trying to work for real, but I'll be on some organic. I've reached out to everybody. I've supported everybody. So don't be trying to work for real. But I'll be on some organic.
Starting point is 00:50:06 I've reached out to everybody. I've supported everybody. So whoever organically want to work, then we'll have some female features and collabs on there. But if it don't happen like that, I ain't present. Now, I get it. I know hip hop is a competitive sport, of course. But I also see like a lot of people teaming up,
Starting point is 00:50:23 doing joint collabs together. I don't see it as much with women as I see it with the men. They do it all the time. They might be competing with each other, but they also work together because they know it's a job. So I just think it would be great for them to be able to call each other, get some support, because I do think it's a lot harder for women rappers from what I've seen. I mean, Megan Thee Stallion and City Girls got a record together on Megan's new album. I mean, Cardi B and Megan teamed up last year for the number one song in the country, WAP.
Starting point is 00:50:47 Like, I mean, we see women collaborate a lot. Yeah, Megan did something with Nicki and- And I enjoy when that happens. I love it. It's just not realistic to think you're going to get along with everyone. And you should really just rock with people that you vibe with.
Starting point is 00:51:02 Like, you can't force chemistry. You can't force, you know, me to actually dig a person, get along with a person. I just may not dig their energy. Yeah. I mean, I definitely don't think there's any way everybody will get along with everyone else, but I also do feel like it would be great
Starting point is 00:51:17 if women could just work together some more, and I do feel like they do pit women against each other more than they do anybody else. All right, well, let's go to the phone lines. Yo, yo. Hey, what's up? What's your name, bro? Yo, this is Tyler. What's going on, Breakfast Club? What's up, Tyler? We're asking 800-585-1051.
Starting point is 00:51:34 You know, what are your thoughts about what Kamiya said, bro? Honestly, this is hip-hop, man. You don't have to have friends if you don't have to have friends. You don't have to force relationships. You don't have to force them. They shouldn't hold women to a different You don't have to force relationships. You don't have to force them. They shouldn't hold women to a different standard. I mean, they're all doing the same thing.
Starting point is 00:51:49 We're rapping, right? That's what it is. It's hip-hop. So, honestly, they shouldn't be held to a different standard. I think Kamaya spoke with facts. Yeah, and I agree with you. I think hip-hop is a competitive sport. We've seen it competitive since it started.
Starting point is 00:52:02 I don't have to get along with you. We don't have to get along. I want to be the best, and that's anything that I want to to do now. There's other people that want to be the best and fight for that spot, but you don't have to stab and shoot and kill each other. It's competitive as far as rap is concerned. That's what I thought. But by the way, it's not just hip hop. It's literally in every genre. They do it in sports. It's always LeBron versus Jordan. You know what I mean? Kobe versus LeBron, whoever it is at the time. They do it in R&B. They do it in every single
Starting point is 00:52:30 genre where it's multiple individuals that are winning. And I want to quote something that Remy Ma said when she was discussing this. She said, there's strength in numbers. If I'm doing good and this girl here is doing good, people will take it more seriously. We all bring something different to the table. And once people realize that, stop fighting each other, work together and help build each other up we'll
Starting point is 00:52:47 grow even more and she did a whole uh thing i mean a lot of women have to talk about that and deal with it and i've heard a lot of women who are artists discuss this i love remy but uh have you heard remy maz this record have you have you also heard you have to get along with every person but it's just saying even just being supportive of the community, not every single individual. If I'm not mistaken, Remy Ma had balls for Foxy Brown too, right? Sure did. She had balls for Foxy.
Starting point is 00:53:14 She had balls for Nicky. And Lil' Kim too, right? She did a song with Lil' Kim. I think her and Kim is cool. I think her and Kim is cool. Okay, him and cool. Definitely Foxy. Definitely Foxy and Nicky.
Starting point is 00:53:22 She gave some balls. But then again, you know, Remy gave balls to dudes, too. Remy wanted to be the best. She didn't care women or men. She wanted to be the best. Yeah, that's true. Yeah, she gave balls to dudes and women. You know what I like?
Starting point is 00:53:34 I like when I see Trina. Like, Trina just was performing with Mulatto, and I feel like Trina is one artist who's always trying to reach out to younger artists and other artists, other women in particular, because she knows it's not easy to try to help them out. I think Trina gave some balls to somebody too, a female rapper too. I'm not saying that everyone has to get along with everybody. What I'm saying is it is competitive,
Starting point is 00:53:57 but I do think that in general she's very supportive, just knowing that it's harder for women. I think everybody's supportive of people that they choose to support. Like, once again, you can only vibe with people who you actually vibe with. That's it. It's just hard to be alone and be the only person. All right, let's go to... Like, I don't need nobody's help.
Starting point is 00:54:17 I don't like nobody. I don't get along with anyone. That's a difficult way to be. Yeah, it was Trina and Kaya. That's who Trina and Kaya had issues back when. Trina might have given somebody else some balls, too. But anyway, let's go to... We got a woman on the line. Yeah, it was Trina and Kaya. That's who Trina and Kaya had issues back when. Trina might have given somebody else some balls, too. But anyway, let's go on to, we got a woman on the line. Hello, who's this?
Starting point is 00:54:29 Hi, this is Stephanie. Hey, Stephanie, good morning. What are your thoughts on what Kamiya said? I agree and I disagree with her. I feel like it's deeply rooted. Like, if women don't start with a good foundation at home, like get along with their sisters, get along with their mothers, they develop that type of standoffish attitude with other women where it reflects everywhere else.
Starting point is 00:54:54 So I think most definitely that women should at least be cordial and respectful towards each other. But if they didn't have that growing up, then you can't expect that when they start making money and they start getting full of themselves and they start kind of like, you know, losing, losing their, you know, drive and just get a little egotistic, I guess. Okay. Okay. All right. Thank you, mama.
Starting point is 00:55:15 So what's the moral of the story, guys? Listen, I get it. People aren't always going to get along with each other, but if you do see an opportunity to help out another woman or, and I think sometimes it takes a little bit more effort, there's nothing wrong with that. Yes. Hip hop is very competitive, but women, as far as numbers wise, you know, there's not a lot of us. So if there's ways that we can support each other and actually get along, and it doesn't mean that you have to like every single person or you have to be best friends with people, but I just even think work wise, you know, just maybe just make a little
Starting point is 00:55:45 bit of effort. That's all. Alright, well, we got rumors on the way? Yes, and let's talk about Kim and Kanye. This was the hottest topic yesterday along with Dr. Dre and his brain aneurysm, which we are praying for his recovery. And we'll discuss this upcoming
Starting point is 00:56:01 divorce, allegedly. Alright, 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 the guy. We are the Breakfast Club. Oh, my goodness. You ever look at your charge card and you realize
Starting point is 00:56:17 you didn't charge that, so somebody probably got your number? And you know when it happened? Right when I came back from Atlanta. Whoop! There you go. You know, I had to actually, because I had so many issues with that, I had to sign up for Experian just so I could put like a tracking thing on it. So nobody could charge or open anything without them calling me. My credit card. Cause I seen Dyson. I was like, I didn't order a Dyson vacuum. Why is a Dyson vacuum on there? See, you always go too far.
Starting point is 00:56:51 Let's get to the rumors. Let's talk Kanye and Kim, man. This is the rumor report with Angela Yee. Rumor has it. On The Breakfast Club. So listen up. Alright, well it looks like Kim and Kanye had been in marriage counseling. But of course, this whole topic of divorce has been coming up.
Starting point is 00:57:10 We've been hearing a lot of rumbles about it. But now multiple sources did tell TMZ that the marriage was in deep trouble for the last half of 2020. And we also saw that they did not spend the holidays together. There was a family vacation. Kim Kardashian was seen separate from Kanye West and she also wasn't wearing her ring in any of the pictures with the kids. So they do have four small children and they said everything was put on hold for Christmas holidays, but now the issue of divorce is front and center according to these sources.
Starting point is 00:57:42 And I could tell some of these sources are coming from the Kardashian-Jenner side of things just from the way the story is framed in page six they said Kim hasn't been wearing her wedding ring Kanye remained at his Wyoming ranch over the holidays instead of spending it with the Kardashian clan they said Kim got Kanye to go to Wyoming so they could live separate lives and quietly get things sorted out to separate and divorce she's done they said that Kim has done much in the past to protect and help Kanye deal with his mental health struggles. But now this divorce is happening because she's grown up a lot. She's serious about taking the bar exam and becoming a lawyer.
Starting point is 00:58:15 And she's serious about her prison reform campaign. Meanwhile, Kanye is talking about running for president and saying other crazy ish. And she's just had enough of it. Hey, man, divorce sucks. Wouldn't wish that on anybody. Kids need their father and mother, but if things don't work out, they just don't work out. And as far as them trying to control the narrative,
Starting point is 00:58:35 you know, I think we can all see how. That's a Kardashian-Jenner thing. Yeah, but I think we could all see how exhausting that relationship could possibly be for all parties. Kim and Kanye. I think we could all see how exhausting that relationship could possibly be for all parties. Kim and Kanye. I think we see that. Now, a separate source says Kanye has been increasingly uncomfortable and irritated by the Kardashians with their over-the-top reality star lives. And he's completely over the entire family.
Starting point is 00:58:57 He wants nothing to do with them. If y'all recall, he was on social media even discussing this. And he called Kris Jenner, I think Kris Jong Un or something like that. Damn. Yeah. I'm sure this will play out on the new Hulu show, the new Keeping Up With The Kardashians
Starting point is 00:59:16 that's coming out on Hulu, the reality show. Yeah, I think so too. And you know, they have that house that they put a lot of money into, so we'll see who ends up taking control of that now. Kim Kardashian, though, is not short on. What's that? I want to ask Ebony K. Williams about that.
Starting point is 00:59:32 You know, she has a great podcast, Holding Court, on the Black Effect iHeartRadio podcast network, where she breaks things like this down. Because they say Kim owns the land, but Kanye owns the house. Yeah. He owns the actual house, and she owns the land and all the lots around the house. And they both have put a lot of money into renovating the home. So I don't know how you do handle that.
Starting point is 00:59:52 You know, it could be a situation where maybe one of them is ready to just cash out and just get the money. Who knows? I don't know what their prenup is like or if they have one either. Because I don't even know how they could sell that house. Because that house is particularly for them. Like their furniture and how it looks. That's like kim and kanye i've been to that house actually i've been in a part of the house okay the bedroom but actually i did see their bedroom actually but it was just um i mean because he was showing me a toy house but it's just
Starting point is 01:00:20 yeah it's a very interesting house it's not a house that just anybody would buy. You know what I mean? That's what I'm saying. Yeah, it's custom renovated to their liking. Right. Alright, well, Kim also just sold 20% of her Kim Kardashian West beauty for $200 million to Cody, so she's got a lot
Starting point is 01:00:40 of money, as we all know. Let's go, Ye! Let's get half, baby! Shut up, man. Is Ye entitled to half of that? How'd that work? Or they got pre-nubs? I don't know what Let's go, Ye. Let's get half, baby. Shut up, man. Is Ye entitled to half of that? How'd that work? Or they got prenup? I don't know what their prenup. We don't know what their prenup looks like,
Starting point is 01:00:51 or we don't know any of that. But they both worth a lot of money, so I don't see how that's going to... They both good. Yeah, they both rich. They good. Yeah. All right, well, that is your rumor report.
Starting point is 01:01:01 All right, thank you, Miss Ye. Shut up, man. Yes, sir. Who you giving that dog a do? You know, this is your rumor report. All right. Thank you, Miss Yee. Shalabang! Yes, sir. Who you giving that dog a do? You know, this is a teachable moment. We need the young brother, Y.K. Osiris, to come to the front of the congregation. We'd like to have a word with him, but it's bigger than him. Okay?
Starting point is 01:01:16 It's about barbers. All right. Okay. Let's discuss. All right. We'll get into that next. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning.

A Florida man attacked an ATM for a very strange reason. It gave him too much money. Florida man is arrested after deputies say he rigged the door to his home in an attempt to electrocute his pregnant wife. Police arrested an Orlando man for attacking a flamingo. Put the breakfast club, bitchy.
Starting point is 01:05:19 Donkey of the Day with Charlemagne the guy. I don't know why y'all keep getting me to hit y'all like this. Well, Donkey of the Day for Wednesday, January 6th goes to a young, talented brother by the name of Y.K. Osiris. Now, always remember, Donkey of the Day is all about giving people the credit they deserve for doing stupid things. I don't think Y.K. Osiris is personally stupid at all, but he is from Florida. And what did your Uncle Charla always say about Florida?
Starting point is 01:05:44 The craziest people in America come from the Bronx and all of Florida, and Y.K. Osiris is from Jacksonville. Okay, and from what I saw on Say Cheese TV this week, I must say he highly disappointed your Uncle Charlotte. Now, for all the old heads like me who may not have a clue who the hell Y.K. Osiris is, I'm sure you heard his record on the radio before. It's called, Werford came out a couple of years ago,
Starting point is 01:06:08 but it's probably still in heavy rotation on local radio stations across the country, simply because that's just how radio works. Is Werford still playing on the radio, even though it came out January 2019? Is it? Anybody? No, not like that.
Starting point is 01:06:20 Okay, well play a clip of it. Yeah, but give you the world, baby girl, you just gotta be worthy. Yeah, yeah. But you don't gotta be perfect. Yes. Oh, oh, oh. Yes, worth it. All right?
Starting point is 01:06:34 The irony of that being his biggest record at radio, because the reason this young brother is getting donkier day to day is because what he is doing is absolutely not worth it. Let's discuss. First of all, I have to give YK Osiris respect, props, credit, whatever you want to call it, for something I saw him do on Instagram Live. I thought this was a very positive message that he delivered because he told his IG followers he was over-stunting for the gram.
Starting point is 01:06:57 Let's listen to what he had to say. Yes, man, I sold my Lamborghini. I sold my Rolls Royce. I sold my Cadillacs. I ain't going to lie. This thing humble yourself. I love this Hyundai. I got a floss for you. That's what's wrong with you.
Starting point is 01:07:10 Y'all got a floss for the Instagram, man. them, man. Y'all don't need a floss for no dumb ass Instagram. They gonna think what the they wanna think. I had to sit back, I had to relax and look at the world like Osiris. You forgot who the you are. You forgot where the you came from.
Starting point is 01:07:24 the Lambo, the Rolls Roy where the f*** you came from. F*** Limbo, f*** Rosewoods. Remember where you came from. Round of applause for that, man. He got rid of his fleet of luxury cars, so he says, so he can get that new Hyundai, okay? Personally, I can't wait to get that new 2021 Hyundai Sonata. I've been looking at that Sonata for real. I'm going to get me one fully loaded for sure, okay?
Starting point is 01:07:43 But I respect everything Y.K. Osiris is saying there because we live in an era where people would rather look like they have money than actually have money. Okay. See, when you really got it, you don't care if people think you don't. Not to mention, I'm frugal Vandross. Quick story. When I was out the country last week, there was this really expensive tequila. It was $300 a glass. Do you think I bought that? Hell no. But you know what I did do? I told my much richer friend, who happens to be my financial advisor, who I know likes to stun a little bit.
Starting point is 01:08:14 And when I told him, he couldn't wait to buy us both a glass drop on the clues bombs for my man Humble. All right? Love you for that. And that's one of my top three financial rules. Never, ever spend money when you are out with people who got more than you. It's disrespectful to them. But YK Osiris made that whole statement null and void.
Starting point is 01:08:32 When he got back on his IG a few days later, this is after saying, you know, the thing about getting rid of the Lambos for the Hyundai. He said this. This is what a $1,000 cut look like. Sheesh! A $1,000 cut look like. Sheesh! A $1,000 haircut. Young King Osiris, listen to me, sir. Must be a full closure.
Starting point is 01:08:54 A what? A sewing. Oh. That's how much they cost. Oh, okay. Listen, YK Osiris, there's absolutely positively no reason to spend $1,000 on a haircut, not knocking any barber's hustle. Barbers, if you find someone who is willing to pay a $1,000 haircut, get your lick. Take full advantage of that whole fool market.
Starting point is 01:09:16 But I don't care what's in your bank account, $1,000 for one haircut? No. Now, don't get me wrong. It's people who will travel across country to go cut some of their high-profile clients. It's barbers who will get on a plane and travel anywhere to cut certain folks. Those individuals should be rewarded. You can drive to or who can drive to you, 10-mile radius, $1,000 a haircut? Absolutely not. Now, Y.K. Osiris elaborated a little more on this topic. It's not exactly $1,000 per haircut. Well, let's listen. I do not pay $1,000 for one haircut. I pay $1,000 monthly for a haircut. That means I can call my barber when I want to.
Starting point is 01:09:56 I can skip y'all dumbass. I pay for my barber's time. Stop telling me $1,000 is a lot. No, it's not. I get a haircut every three days. thousand dollars is absolutely a lot especially when people are waiting on six hundred dollar stimulus checks okay especially when people want uh the two thousand dollar stimulus check that's yes that's half of that thousand dollars is a lot listen man i tell everyone out there to act your wage okay but i don't care if you're a billionaire a thousand dollars a month for haircuts is ridiculous all right most i ever paid for a
Starting point is 01:10:29 haircut was 150 i think i did that once in la that's because the brother came to my room and cut me i wish i would have asked him how much it cost before he got there okay i think i might have paid that once when i was in a rush uh and needed someone to come to the station to cut me real quick too. In those moments, I can understand a little better. Still a lot of money, okay? Yes, YK Osiris, you are paying for your barber's time because when he's traveling to cut you, he could have cut a few heads in the barber shop, so I get it.
Starting point is 01:10:59 But $1,000 a month? YK Osiris said he gets his hair cut every three days. I did the math. Every three days. I did the math. Every three days. Let's just say at $100, you know, a cut equals about $1,000 a month. Yeah, and about 30 days in a month on average, yeah, that's about $1,000, $100 every three days. Okay, YK, I can't tell you how to spend your money.
Starting point is 01:11:20 Brothers like to be fresh. Barbers are as important as doctors, therapists, dentists, and dermatologists to me, so I understand. But as your unofficial financial advisor, let me give you some advice that you did not ask for. The one thing I would advise you to trim, pun intended, is your haircut budget, okay? It's just pointless. I get a haircut once a week on the regular, all right? Dropping the clues bombs for my brother Ty. Up. Personally, which- How much is a haircut once a week on the regular. All right, dropping the clues bombs for my brother Ty. Up. Personally, which tip is beauty? How much is a haircut? Yeah.
Starting point is 01:11:50 How much you pay a week, Envy? When you go get your haircut, how much you pay? $40 to $50. Yeah, that's me. I'm in that same range, okay? That's about, let's just say $160, $200 a month. Granted, I just get a baldy in my beard trimmed but it's still 160 to 200 a month i would really think that on average that's what most of us men
Starting point is 01:12:13 regardless of financial status are paying in haircuts young king osiris if you are truly in 2021 trying to be better with finances the moral of the story is live like a poor man with lots of money, okay? I know what y'all saying. Stop being cheap, Uncle Sharla. No, it's not about being cheap, okay? People who are frugal understand the value of a dollar and make informed and thoughtful decisions. People who are cheap try to spend as little money as possible. That might be the same thing. But is donkey of the day finished or is it done? I would say for the day I'm done. Please give the young brother, YK Osiris, the biggest hee-haw.
Starting point is 01:13:00 I disagree. I disagree. I know we ain't got time. So I'm going to tell you why I disagree right fast. One, we talk about these artists, how these artists shouldn't be in trouble. So he can't go to the barbershop. He doesn't want to go to the barbershop. He doesn't want to get in trouble.
Starting point is 01:13:12 He doesn't want to be around people. He doesn't want to get robbed. He doesn't want to get shot or stabbed. So the barber has to come to his house. For a barber to come to your house, any barber that comes to your house that leaves their barbershop charges you $100. Right? If he gets two haircuts a day, be two haircuts a week, that's two, four, six, that's 800. He gets three. So that's $300 a week.
Starting point is 01:13:31 You times that by four, that's $1,200 a month. He's actually saving $200 and he writes it off at the end of the year. So I think that young man is smart. He's not going to the barbershop, especially where he's from in Florida. Why go there, put yourself in danger when the barber could come to your house, cut you, and you're safe. I think what that young man is doing is smart. See, and as a woman,
Starting point is 01:13:53 that doesn't sound like a lot to me because it costs so much to get our hair done. A thousand dollars is like what you pay to get your, you know, your sewing and the bundles and all of that. If my barber wasn't so packed all the time, I wouldn't go to the shop. Come here. I want to be safe. I want to make sure there's nobody following me. I want to be away from people. Cut me at the crib. I'm not mad at that young man. Listen, I didn't say he shouldn't get cut at the crib. All I'm
Starting point is 01:14:17 simply saying is a thousand dollars a month is ridiculous. Maybe he shouldn't get haircuts. Maybe he shouldn't get haircuts every three days. Maybe he should cut it to once a week. If you cut it to once a week and you're spending that a hundred dollars, as Envy just said, now you're only paying $300 a month. Shut up. Once a week is $400 a month, you non-calculating ass. Okay, whatever. It's still $600 less than a thousand. All right. And I agree with him, what he said about getting rid of all his cars to get the Hyundai. The moral of the story is don't buy things you can't afford with money you don't have to impress people you don't like. And trust me, getting $1,000 haircuts and posting it on Instagram and bragging about it,
Starting point is 01:14:56 you're literally trying to impress people who don't like you anyway. And that's why they're so quick to slander you about $1,000 a month. It's not really a stack of haircuts. It's a stack a month. And he writes that off at the end of the year, I'm sure. That's why he pays them $1,000. month. It's not really a stack of haircut. It's a stack a month. And he writes that off at the end of the year, I'm sure. That's why he pays him $1,000. I'm sure he pays him a check. Why spend $1,000 if you can only spend $400 a month?
Starting point is 01:15:12 Based off your logic, I can just buy and get a haircut every week. Because he has hair. You don't understand this thing. He has hair. You got to cut his hair, make it trim, and get a trim. Do you really think his hair grows that fast that he need to cut every three days? I don't know. My hair hasn't grown like that since I was about 19, 20, so I don't know.
Starting point is 01:15:28 But I don't remember mine growing like that every three days when I was a kid either. Okay, I don't remember that one. Goodness gracious. But you're talking to somebody whose hairline looks like a Robocop with his mask off, so don't listen. That is true. Alright, well up next, Ask Ye. 800-585-1051

Starting point is 01:16:04 Need relationship advice? Need personal advice? Just need real advice. Call up now for Ask Ye. Keep it real. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Ye, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club.
Starting point is 01:16:19 Now it's time for Ask Ye, 800-585-1051. Hello, who's this? Hi, this is Tiara. Hey, Tiara, what's your question for Yee? Why isn't anyone committed anymore? Why doesn't anyone want to give it a shot? They just are here for a good time, and they can never really commit or even want to commit.
Starting point is 01:16:35 Well, give me some examples. First of all, where are you meeting these guys? And secondly, what's happening to you? Friends, I guess mutual friends and dating apps, a little bit of everything, but I gave someone six months of my time and I'm a successful woman and I got two kids.
Starting point is 01:16:52 I got everything that a man could want. I don't understand why after six months he can't commit or even offer me loyalty. I think sometimes we act like we're in relationships and give guys those relationship benefits and perks without actually being in one. Very true. act like we're in relationships and give guys those relationship benefits and perks without actually being in one. Very true. And so sometimes guys don't feel like they need to commit because
Starting point is 01:17:11 they're getting everything that they want and need from you without that. And so, yes, there is a period of time that you're dating and you're trying to see if this is going to work out. But then after a certain amount of time, if you feel like he wants to go this way and I want to go that way, you know, it is what it is. But that's why I do believe that you can't give a guy everything that you would give him if you were in a relationship, if you're not committed, which means that you can't focus on just one person for six months and act like that's your man if he's not your man. Sometimes we prioritize these men and we choose them over our friends and our family. We go all out and he's not going all out.
Starting point is 01:17:49 Yeah, understood. So I need to change my vibe a little bit. Right. And I think it is important. Sometimes we don't want to say that we want to be in a relationship or say that we're looking for that because we don't want a guy to feel pressured. But it is important to be upfront about intentions if things do get to that point. So if you decide you really like somebody and this is what you want,
Starting point is 01:18:10 it shouldn't take six months to be like, look, this is, you know, what I'm striving toward. What are you striving toward? What are your plans? We got to have those conversations. Yeah, awesome. Thank you, Angela. All right, Tiara, good luck.
Starting point is 01:18:22 All right, we got more with Yee when we come back. If you need relationship advice or any type of advice, hit Yee right now. It's The Tiara. Good luck. All right, we got more with Ye when we come back. If you need relationship advice or any type of advice, hit Ye right now. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. Get some real advice with Angela Ye. It's Ask Ye. Morning, everybody. It's DJ NV, Angela Ye,
Starting point is 01:18:39 Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. We're in the middle of Ask Ye. Hello, who's this hi this is jasmine from jersey hey jasmine from jersey what's your question for you hi ye first of all congratulations you guys are doing an awesome job i watch this every day i work for amazon and i watch it i mean i listen to it every single day before my morning it gives me a lot of laughs so big ups to you guys on that um hi ye okay so. Okay, so I'm calling because I've been with my partner for, and I call him partner because I don't like saying my man or my boyfriend.
Starting point is 01:19:10 So I've been with my partner for about seven years now, and we have two kids. Now, before we started having kids, I let him know, like, marriage is important to me. Like, it really is. Like, I told him, and he said he understood. Okay? Now, it's been two, like been two kids and seven years down now, and I've given him an ultimatum at the end of this year, the middle of this year, that, you know, it's done for me.
Starting point is 01:19:31 Like, if it doesn't happen or if you feel like still, for some reason, that you can't make this final step with me. Now, I'm a woman that I don't, like, money is not big for me. Like, if you put a ring together, like if you cut a newspaper out and fold it up and give it to me because I understand how times are and stuff like that, it would mean a lot to me that you actually got down on your knee and say, you know what, this is what I want to do with you.
Starting point is 01:19:57 This is, this is, I really, I'm really feeling this and it's really important to me. Well, he hasn't even, you know, done that. And for me, like I'm really thinking about going through with the ultimatum because I feel like you're really dragging your feet. And I know that I'm a queen and I'm a prize. And I think I've done my due diligence.
Starting point is 01:20:15 Jasmine, it seems like you already know what you want to do. You did give him an ultimatum. You let him know this is what I want. I want to be married. It's been seven years and you guys do have two kids. And the problem with giving an ultimatum is if you don't follow through, is he going to take it seriously? Exactly. Yeah. Yeah. And sometimes, sometimes actually following through with that is what might push him to be like, damn, I might really lose what I have. It's like, it's crazy
Starting point is 01:20:42 because, you know, I mean, we've been through a lot like any other relationship has. And it's crazy that you will have to go to that extent for somebody to understand. Like, I literally sat down, like we were both sitting down on his bed. And I told him before we, because I knew the next stage, because he's Jamaican, okay? So, and the next stage, he's going to want kids. And I went to his mom's house. And before the even discussion about anything else, everyone wants to talk about kids. And I understand that part.
Starting point is 01:21:10 Okay. I understand that. But my whole thing was that, you know, no one wants to discuss the marriage part, but everyone wants to discuss kids. Right. I agree with you. And that's another topic about, I believe, like a Caribbean, as far as relationship is concerned. I think it's really deep- as far as relationship is concerned, I think it's really deep-rooted in some other things, but that's beyond the point.
Starting point is 01:21:34 But I was like, okay, I can deal with that, but as long as you can follow through on what you're supposed to. And I've always gotten yeah, and it's like, damn, like I try so hard not to be a part of the statistic because you don't want to be that, and that stuff does go through your mind. Well, Jasmine, I want to say don't want to be that. And that stuff does go through your mind. Jasmine, I want to say, don't you, don't worry about what other people think. Don't worry about statistics. Worry about what it is that you want. That is, has nothing to do with anything. We can't be concerned about these realistic or unrealistic expectations that people have.
Starting point is 01:22:00 Does he believe in marriage? And is he saying that he's open to it? Yeah, he believes in marriage. Yeah, he believes in marriage. Yeah, he believes in marriage. He does believe in marriage. So my advice to you, Jasmine, is you've given him this ultimatum. And I think the worst thing you can do is keep bringing it up all the time and talking about it with him constantly. And doing that, I think you just got to let him know what it is and be like, I'm going to give you your time. This is the deadline for when this is going to happen.
Starting point is 01:22:24 If you still don't know what you want to do, then, you know, perhaps we need to take a break until you can figure it out. Because sometimes, again, you guys are living together. He's getting everything he wants. He's got his family. He doesn't feel like that's being threatened. But it's not everything that you want. And sometimes in order for you to get what you want,
Starting point is 01:22:41 you have to really be serious about it. Yeah. But also not be always have to really be serious about it. Yeah. But also not be always, always, always talking about it. Like, just enjoy your relationship, enjoy your children, but know that if this doesn't happen. I definitely, like, we've had so many great moments. I definitely enjoy him. He's a great man.
Starting point is 01:23:00 First of all, big ups to him. He's a great man. He's a great provider. You know, he does everything across the board great. It's just that this one little small thing, it's not small, but this one thing that I just feel like, you know, it's not small, but it's just, it's like. It means a lot to you. Yeah, it does. It means a lot to you.
Starting point is 01:23:21 And he's got to respect that and know that if he doesn't have these intentions and you've given him plenty of time, so just follow through with what it is you said you're going to do. He knows you love him, and it's on him now. Yeah. Big ups to all the Jamaican men out there. Are you Jamaican? Big up! No, I'm not Jamaican.
Starting point is 01:23:41 He's Jamaican, though. He's Jamaican. Okay. They're great lovers. She said big ups like five times. I'm not Jamaican. He's Jamaican, though. He's Jamaican. Yeah. Okay. All right. They're great lovers. She said big ups like five times. I'm not saying. No, I'm not. They don't eat the poom poom, though.
Starting point is 01:23:52 Huh? That's a lie. They definitely do. They don't eat the poom poom, though. That's what they say. Okay. That's what you guys want to say, but trust me. They definitely do.
Starting point is 01:24:00 If you get the right woman and the right foreign woman, you guys get what? Yeah, y'all going to **** that. Don't worry about it. Goodness gracious. Yeah, they just don't talk about it. All right, that was Ask Yee, 800-585-1051. Now we got rumors on the way, Yee. Yes, and can calling somebody a sexy-ass looking cockroach ever be a compliment?
Starting point is 01:24:17 We'll talk about it. Feels like somebody might have called Charlamagne that before. But anyway, we'll talk about it when we come back. They've never said I look like a cockroach. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. It's like a cockroach. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. It's the one and only. It's the Breakfast Club.
Starting point is 01:24:29 Morning, everybody. It's D.J. Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are the Breakfast Club. Let's get to the rumors. Let's talk Vivica Fox. It's about time. What's going on? Rumor Report.
Starting point is 01:24:42 Rumor Report. This is the Rumor Report. Talk to them. With Angela. This is the rumor report. Talk to him. With Angela Yee on The Breakfast Club. Well, on Fox Soul Show Cocktails with Queens, Vivica Fox is under fire. And that is because she said that young Thug is a sexy-ass looking cockroach. Listen. Vivica, do you think he's attractive?
Starting point is 01:25:02 You know, he's just like a good, sexy ass looking cockroach. I don't mean that mean, like I don't, like you know what I mean? Like he looks like, he looks like, you know what I mean? Cause it's like the little the hair and everything like that, but he's very, he's got rock star quality. Like he would be a great
Starting point is 01:25:20 animation character. I don't know how I would take that. Call me a sexy-ass roach. Is there a sexy-ass roach? There's a bad history of people calling black people cockroaches, too, as an insult. That's what the real issue was. Well, beauty is in the eyes of the beholder.
Starting point is 01:25:35 And, you know, who said cockroaches are cosmetically challenged? You never looked at a cockroach. That's disgusting. Cockroaches are disgusting. Not for you, not for everybody. I'm sure there's somebody out there. Cockroaches might have handsome faces. When have you ever looked at a cockroach's face? When have you ever been face to face with a cockroach?
Starting point is 01:25:54 Exactly. You step on it from the top. You ain't never looked at a cockroach's face. Cockroaches might have handsome faces. We don't know. Let's pull it up. Let's look and see. None of y'all have ever seen a cockroach's face.
Starting point is 01:26:06 You're liars. So you think a cockroach is going to be cute? Maybe. I don't know. I've never looked at a cockroach's face. We always just step on them from the top. All right. Now, Lauryn Hill recently did an interview with Rolling Stone, and she talked about why she never did a second album.
Starting point is 01:26:21 She said, the wild thing is no one from my label has ever called me and asked, how can we help you make another album ever? Did I say ever? Ever. She said, with the miseducation, there was no precedent. I was for the most part free to explore, experiment and express. After the miseducation, there were scores of tentacled obstructionist
Starting point is 01:26:38 politics, repressing agendas, unrealistic expectations and saboteurs everywhere. People had me included, had included me in their own narratives of their success as it pertained to my album, and if this contradicted my experience, I was considered an enemy. So that's why she's never done a second album. I highly doubt that after the success of the miseducation of Lauryn Hill
Starting point is 01:27:03 that no one from the record label reached out and attempted to get her to do a second album? Yeah, that sounds crazy. I'm not gonna say she's a liar, but that just sounds like a lie. I'm not gonna say she's a liar, but I just know these record label people, after the success of the miseducation of Lauryn Hill,
Starting point is 01:27:19 that album was huge. Nobody reached out to try to get her to do a second album? Right, doesn't make sense. I know reached out to try to get her to do a second album. Right, doesn't make sense. I know they definitely were trying to get her to do a Fugees album, though, really hard. And then she had a lot of legal issues after that first album came out. But I don't know what happened behind the scenes, if it was a breakdown between management and the label or what. All right, now let's talk about Boosie.
Starting point is 01:27:42 He was discussing being in jail and how some people hooked him up with some cash. Here's what he had to say. That cat Williams gave me $10,000 cash, all hundreds. I'll never forget. I thank you for that cat, bro. And I really appreciate it, bro. You helped me put a down payment on the lease in New Orleans, bro. Thank you, cat.
Starting point is 01:28:01 You need that 10 back? I got you. I got it in pliers. Gave my mama like 5K a piece when i was for my trial jesus ain't give me no money jesus gave me motivation you know when you're in jail you just need motivation you need somebody to talk to you know what that's interesting that he said he would no he didn't um envy was about it, but we didn't play it. But anyway, I was going to say, he said he's got that money for Cat Williams. If people do give you money like that when you're down,
Starting point is 01:28:31 should you pay them back when you back up? I mean, Cat Williams didn't give it to him for that reason. Cat Williams didn't give it to him and say, hey, I'm paying you back. But if you feel like you want to repay that person, why not? Or pay it for them. Would y'all do that? Would you be like, hey, here's that money you gave me. Like, would y'all do that?
Starting point is 01:28:51 I would pay it back or I would ask the person, do you mind if I pay it for it? Give it to somebody else that might need that same help or same opportunity. Yeah, and like I said yesterday about this story, Cat Williams does stuff like this all the time for people. If you talk to a lot of different people, not even just entertainers, just regular people on the street, they tell stories. Cat Williams does stuff like this all the time for people. If you talk to a lot of different people, not even just entertainers, just regular people on the street, they tell stories of Cat Williams
Starting point is 01:29:09 just randomly giving them money. All right. And The Queen's Gambit, that show is actually the highest ranked show on Netflix. They said the only other Netflix show to get more views was Tiger King. So The Queen's Gambit,
Starting point is 01:29:26 they are saying, according to reports, the chess master, Beth Harmon, who was played by Anya Taylor-Joy, she actually gets to keep the clothes that she wore on the show. Did you know that? No, I didn't even think about that, actually.
Starting point is 01:29:37 I just know that it's a dope show. You know, I look at stuff like that all the time because those outfits were pretty amazing that she had. So when she was asked if she got to keep them, she said because she worked so closely with the person that was in charge of all of that with the fashion
Starting point is 01:29:51 and the stylist, they said, you know what? We found these together. The line is very blurry, so you should just take them home. So she gets to keep that. I don't think there's going to be a season two of Queen's Gambit, though. No? Nah. It has to be. I mean, it's a great be a season two of Queen's Gambit, though. No? Nah. It has to be.
Starting point is 01:30:06 I mean, it's a great show. I mean, it's very entertaining, and I thought it was dope. I mean, they got to bring back the next season, I think, anyway. All right. Well, that is your rumor report. I'm Angela Yee. All right. Thank you, Miss Yee.
Starting point is 01:30:21 All right. Now, for everybody else, Revolt will be back next week. If you're looking for Revolt, they'll be back next week. So shout out to Revolt and the People's Choice Mix is up next. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy.
Starting point is 01:30:35 We are the Breakfast Club. Now, Charlamagne gave Donkey the day to YK Osiris, right, for spending $1,000 a month on haircuts. And what I was saying was. That's not why he got Donkey of the day. I mean, I think $1,000 a month on haircuts. And what I was saying was... That's not why he got donkey of the day. I mean, I think $1,000 on haircuts is stupid, but that's his money. But also, if you're going to get on the gram
Starting point is 01:30:52 and say you're getting rid of all your luxury cars to buy a Hyundai because you're tired of stunting and you're tired of flossing and you don't care what people know you got, and how you turn around a couple days later and you're flossing a $1,000 haircut. Now, see, the reason I say that is a thousand dollar haircut, though. It's a thousand dollars a month.
Starting point is 01:31:10 But the thing is, is we talk about these artists all the time about being safe and making sure they're out the way and not getting caught up in a lot of the craziness. And I think the fact that he's not going to the barbershop where he can, where he's open to the public and he's driving around and people know where he is going to be for an hour while he gets that haircut and have the barber come to his house is smart. Now for the barber to come to your house, anybody, when the barber comes to your house is usually anywhere from 75 to $150 when the barber leaves his shop to come to your house. And if he gets a haircut twice a week, let's say, and it's a hundred, over a hundred dollars a week, a hundred dollars a cut, that's $1,000.
Starting point is 01:31:45 That makes sense. You write him a check every month, and then you write it off at the end of the year. I don't think that's stupid. Let me poke holes in all your logic. If you're paying $1,000 a month in haircuts, you can afford to take security with you to the barbershop. If you don't want to go to the barbershop, just don't get a haircut every three days. Every three days is what's making it get to $1,000 a month.
Starting point is 01:32:03 You can get a haircut once a week, and that'll be like $400 a month. So that's saving you $600. Paying for security is the same as getting a $1,000 haircut. Well, forget the security. Well, forget the security. Get a haircut once a week, $100 a month. That's $400. I mean, yeah, that's $100 a week, $400 a month.
Starting point is 01:32:24 You're saving yourself $600 And if you tell me it's because he's an artist I'll simply tell you What are artists doing during the pandemic? Paying ballers to come to the house, I'm sure Some of them are performing Yeah, you're right A lot of them are performing
Starting point is 01:32:38 A lot of them are I saw some of them in the club with Envy in Atlanta Was Wyclef Cyrus one of them? That is a good question. Come on, man. $1,000 a month in haircuts is ridiculous for any human. I don't care how much money they're making. You can easily cut that in half.
Starting point is 01:32:54 You don't have to get a haircut every three days. That's overkill. Your barber will tell you that. Your barber will tell you you don't get a haircut every three days. Let your hair breathe a little bit. His barber didn't tell him that. I wouldn't either. Your barber will tell you you don't get a haircut every three days. Let your hair breathe a little bit. His barber didn't tell him that. His barber's taking a month. I wouldn't either.
Starting point is 01:33:10 I wouldn't either if I was getting $1,000 a month. His barber would say, hey, I didn't get a haircut. Now, let me ask you this. If a woman says she spent $1,000 a month on her hair, would y'all think that was ridiculous? Yes. I think so, yeah. I don't know anything about women's hair. You got a wife.
Starting point is 01:33:23 Your wife don't spend $1,000 to get her hair done a month, or does she? I really don't know how much. Yeah, I don't know either about women's hair. You got a wife. Your wife don't spend $1,000 to get her hair done a month, or does she? I really don't know how much. Yeah, I don't know either. I'm lying. I know she goes, but I don't know how much she spend. You're right. I have no idea. I would assume it's not $1,000, though, right?
Starting point is 01:33:35 I don't know. Could be for some people. All right. But when we come back, we got the positive note. Don't move. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. Morning, everybody.
