DJ N, Angela Yee and Charlamagne Tha God. The Breakfast Club bitches. The voice of the culture. People watch The Breakfast Club for light news and really be tuned in. It's one of my favorite shows to do just because y'all always keep it 100 y'all keep it real. They might not watch the news but they're on Twitter, they're on Facebook

they're, you know, they're listening to The Breakfast Club. Get your ass up. Good morning, Angela Yee. Good morning, DJ Envy. Charlamagne Tha God. Peace to the planet. It's Tuesday. Yes, it's Tuesday. Yes, indeed. How was everybody's date last night?

Would y'all do anything? Well, I'm just trying not to get sick because everybody's been sick around me. I've been doing a lot of traveling and I started feeling a little under the weather. And whenever I travel a lot, I'm off schedule. Like, when I'm here, I'm always having juices, everything I need. But whenever I'm running around, it's not as easy to stay in my routine. So I'm just trying not to be sick. So I slept a

lot. Okay. Alright. I might have just happened to watch The Bachelor last night. My wife was watching it. Oh, good. My eye was over a little bit. You know who came back? You watched The Bachelor over the national championship game between LSU and Clemson? Yes. Okay.

I watched it with my wife. I respect it. Listen, I love gender fluidity, man. I don't think that, you know, just because you're a man, you have to watch football. Just because you're a woman, you have to watch The Bachelor. If you chose The Bachelor over football, that's your prerogative, and you have the right to choose. Drop one of the clues, Bonds, with DJ Enby. Well, I didn't choose The Bachelor.

My wife was watching The Bachelor. I wanted to spend some time with my wife, so we both watched The Bachelor. But did you know Hannah's back? You don't know who Hannah is. Who's Hannah? We're not a part of Bachelor Nation like you. Hannah was the girl that won last year. And the guy that she picked, it didn't work out.

So then she picked number two. It didn't work out. And then she said her heart was really for number three, which is The Bachelor, this season. So she came back to see if she could get in. She's like, I'm getting on this TV. That's right, but it didn't work. He kind of played it. He was like, nah, you played me last season so you can hop out of here. Listen, it's cute that you're a part of Bachelor

Nation, man. You know what? I respect it. Somebody out there is like, word, NB, I seen it. That was great, man. It was deep last night. Yeah, listen, ladies love The Bachelor. I'm sure there's millions of women who heard you just now and they absolutely agree with you. I'm sure some men watch The women who heard you just now and they absolutely agree with you. I'm sure some men watch The Bachelor too. Watch it with their

wives and their spouses. Salute to Trav. You know what I'm saying? Not just gay men, man. I didn't say anything about gay. It's kind of like watching Flavor of Love.

Right? Yeah. Flavor of Flavor was The Bachelor. Yeah, I guess you're right. Yeah, absolutely. And everybody watched that? Yeah, I guess you're right.

I'm sure. Just not when the national championship game was on. That's all. LSU versus Clemson. Well, my wife wanted to cuddle, so I said let's cuddle. Okay.

All right. Well, let's get this show cracking. Oh, Styles P and Adjua Styles will be joining us this morning. Yes, they're going to be on marriage boot camp together, but Adjua has a book out right now called The Ethereal Hike. And if you guys remember, they were on the show previously. Their daughter actually ended up committing suicide. And the first time they ever addressed it publicly was up

here on The Breakfast Club. Then they did Black Love. Now they're doing Marriage Boot Camp. And now she has a book dedicated to the memory of her daughter and just explaining everything that happened that led to that unfortunate situation, tragic situation. Yeah, we'll talk to them in a little bit. I mean, the book is a great book, great read. All right, but let's get the show cracking. Front page news, what are we talking about? Well, another person has suspended their 2020 presidential run.

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 Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. Let's get in some front page news.

Now, last night, the college national championship, LSU beat Clemson 42-25. Mm-hmm. You seen the game? I watched some of it. You know, I'm a University of South Carolina Gamecock fan, so I don't really care for Clemson like that. It's just an in-state rivalry that's been going on forever. So I watch it, but I wasn't invested in it.

Matter of fact, last time when I tuned in, LSU was up 28-25. What are you doing? I'm scratching my goddamn ears. I got to take my headphones off to do that. That's weird. What else are we talking about you? All right, now let's talk about Bernie Sanders versus Elizabeth Warren. The two of them are longtime friends, but now they're having a disagreement over what was said at a conversation in Elizabeth Warren's apartment back in D.C. one evening in December of 2018.

Now, apparently they both knew they'd be running against each other. So they did say that they would not attack each other. They would remain civil. They didn't want to hurt the progressive movement. So they also were discussing how to best take on President Donald Trump. And that's when Elizabeth Warren said that she would be a strong candidate, she believed, and get a lot of support from female voters. And she said that Bernie Sanders responded, he did not believe a woman could win.

He is denying having ever said that, though. And the description of that meeting, there's four people who are weighing in on it. There's two people that Elizabeth Warren spoke with directly after the encounter, and two other people familiar with the meeting. So she did say in a statement, I thought a woman could win. He disagreed. And Bernie Sanders is saying that

is completely untrue. He said it's ludicrous to believe at the same meeting where Elizabeth Warren told me she was going to run for president, I would tell her that a woman couldn't win. Why is she bringing that up now? She must be behind in the polls a little bit. I haven't checked this week. Well, there was some reports that showed some of the notes that Bernie Sanders had, and some of them were not too flattering toward Elizabeth Warren.

So his explanation for that was he has hundreds of people working on his campaign. If somebody wrote that, that doesn't mean that it was his words. And does that make you sexist because you make a statement like that? I mean, you all know America's a sexist country, so to say, look, man,

I don't think a woman can win, that don't necessarily mean it's sexist. That's just the state of the country. It's kind of sexist if you don't think a woman can win.

Why? Because that's something that we can... Why wouldn't a woman be able to win? Because we talk about electability all the time. So if you know America's

a sexist country and you say, you know what, out of all the candidates, I don't think a woman could win right now. I don't know if that's necessarily sexist. I think that's sexist. Just like if there's a black person running and they say, well, I don't think a black person could win. That's right. And he did. And a lot of people didn't believe that. Absolutely.

And that's just based off the country that we live in. Nah, that's sexist. Yeah. So anyway, moving on. Speaking of the campaign, Cory Booker has suspended his 2020 presidential run. And here's what he had to say. Today I'm suspending my campaign for president with the same spirit with which it began. I can't wait to get back on the campaign trail and campaign as hard as I can

for whoever is the eventual nominee and for candidates up and down the ballot. But for now, I want to say thank you. Campaigning over this last year has been one of the most meaningful experiences of my life. Meeting you, meeting people across this country who believe, who know that we may have challenges right now in our nation, but together we will rise. Yeah, a lot of people said Cory Booker couldn't win early on and guess what? Those people were right. Does that make the race? He didn't make it to the next debate stage. That's not because he's black. It's because he's

Cory Booker. Because he's Cory Booker. Listen, it sucks that there's more billionaires running in the Democratic presidential race than black people. Three years and some change since the first black president and not one black presidential candidate. I guess Deval Patrick, is he still in it? Does he count? I think there's a one, yeah. Deval Patrick, does he count?

I don't know. I don't even know if he's really still in it. I don't know if he's in it either. And you can't say that they're not diverse because you got Yang, you got Warren, you got Buttigieg, but it's damn sure no melanin to choose from. Alright, now of course Donald Trump took this opportunity to send out a tweet. Really big breaking news, Kidding.

Booker, who was in zero polling territory, just dropped out the Democratic presidential primary race. Now I can rest easy tonight. I was so concerned that I would someday have to go head to head with him. Trump will close mouth with Donald Trump. Donald Trump don't care. His sarcasm is on a thousand. The fact that he, you know, was never a politician and that he's a celebrity, it just gives him an advantage over everybody because he really speaks the language of majority

of people on social media. He's a Twitter nigga. He should have other things to worry about, I would think, right now. He just is. He is. All right, well,

that is your front page news. All right, get it off your chest. 800-585-1051. If you need to vent, hit us up right now. Maybe you had a bad night, bad morning, or maybe you feel blessed

and want to spread some positivity. Don't worry. 800-585-1051. Hit us up right now. Get it off your chest. Vent a little bit. It's The Breakfast Club.

Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Is your country falling apart? Feeling tired? 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. There are 55 gallons of water, 500 pounds of concrete. Everybody's doing it. I am King Ernest Emmanuel. I am the Queen of Ladonia. I'm Jackson I, King of Capraburg. I am the Supreme Leader of the Grand Republic of Mentonia. Be part of a great colonial tradition. Well, why can't I create my own country? My forefathers did that themselves. What could go wrong? No country willingly gives up

their territory. I was making rockets with black powder, you know, with explosive warheads. Oh my god. What is that? Bullets. Bullets. We need help! We still have the off-road portion to go. Listen to Escape from Zakistan.

And we're losing daylight fast. That's Escape from Z-A-Q-istan on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. 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.

So if you love hearing real, inspiring stories from the people you know, follow, and admire, join me every week for Post Run High. It's where we take the conversation beyond the run and get into the heart of it all. It's lighthearted, pretty crazy, and very fun. Listen to Post Run High on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. 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, 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. You're trying your best. And you're going to figure out the rhythm of this thing. Alicia Keys, like you've never heard her before. Listen to On Purpose with Jay Shetty on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. This is your time to get it off your chest, whether you're mad or blessed.

So you better have the same energy. We want to hear from you on The Breakfast Club. Hello, who's this? Good morning, Envy. Good morning, Charlamagne. Good morning, Angelique. It's Rick from Brooklyn. What up, King?

I found my wallet. Uh-oh, yesterday Rick called. He couldn't find his wallet. Congratulations. Where was your wallet? I have a problem for Rick, man. First of all, I want to apologize to my three-year-old because I thought he hid it, and he didn't hide it.

Falsely accused already at the age of three. But he's one of them people. He's done it before, so that's why he was the first offender. Three! He's done it before like he's a criminal. He's a repeat offender. He hides keys, he hides wallets, all that stuff. Anyway. Is the trip booked? The trip is booked, repeat offender. He hides keys. He hides wallets. All that stuff. Anyway.

Is the trip booked? The trip is booked, sir. King. I like that. All right. He couldn't find his wallet, so he couldn't book this trip he was planning for him and his wife. Perfect.

Where was the wallet? In my trunk. The trunk of my car. How'd it get in the trunk of your car? You know what? I don't even want to know, bro. I don't know what you do. That sounds suspicious.

The three-year-old got the keys to the car and put the wallet in the trunk. Could be. Nah. What happened is we were going to the supermarket and I was clearing out the trunk. I had stuff in my trunk and I had on my hoodie because I had one of those athletic sweats that don't have the back pocket. Yep. I put the

wallet in my hoodie and I guess when I leaned into the back of the trunk, the wallet fell in there. So yesterday, now I'm clearing it out because I'm taking some stuff to go to the gym, and lo and behold, there is my wallet. I already canceled some of the cards, though, but I put the cards that I needed on hold. So all I had to do was take it off hold.

Hey, you know what, my brother? People don't understand that no-back-pocket athletic pants struggle. You know me, I like to wear a lot of athletic pants, and sometimes they don't have that back pocket, so you got to put your wallet in your hoodie or your book bag. Boy, you'd be so paranoid. Absolutely. Thinking you're going to lose.

The Breakfast Club. 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? Happy birthday to you.

Whose birthday is it? Happy birthday, dear Angela. It's Snack Man. Happy birthday to you. Well, thank you very much, Snack Man. My birthday was actually January 3rd. Yeah, yeah. But you said you celebrated all month, and. My birthday was actually January 3rd. Yeah, yeah. But you said you celebrated all month, and you weren't there on the 3rd.

You're right. I would have called. So, you know, better late than never. Happy Belated. Thank you for that beautiful song. You have a joke for us, our resident comedian? Oh, boy. Okay, I didn't realize, but this became one of my better jokes.

So, yeah, so I went to the dentist for a checkup, and he said he had a cavity to fill. So I pulled down my pants and said, get to work. So you gave him consent. Alright, snack man. A different type of cavity. Listen, Dr. Bill's a high.

You gotta do what you gotta do to keep them Dr. Bill's low, bro. My goodness. Hello, who's this? Hey, this is Reese. Hey, Reese, get it off your chest, Reese. Oh, good morning, first of all, to everybody. Good morning. Good morning.

Charlamagne. Yes, ma'am. Oh, my goodness. I just wanted to talk to you. There's this girl. I don't know her name, but she calls y'all all the time, wanting to audition over the phone. And then every time y'all give her an opportunity,

she comes with excuses. It's the same girl every morning, and I'll be waiting for her to call again so that you can do the one, two, three, one, two, three, boo! Hang up there. I don't know who you're talking about.

It's a girl. I think she's blind. That's not blind beauty? No. It's a girl that calls every call. Why does your phone keep dimming out? It's an opportunity to showcase her talent. Well, I'm glad other people's misfortune makes you feel good in the morning, baby.

Well, it's not. It's not. What is up with your phone? Stay on the phone. We're going to go to another caller, mama. Hello, who's this? Hey, get it off your chest.

It's crazy, nasty, cloudy. I can't see a thing, but I got to go pick up these kids. That's what I do. Make sure to get to school and such, you know? Okay. True, you're doing your job as a father. Are you a bus driver?

Yeah, I'm a driver. Personal driver for kids between houses and such. They may be homeless. Go pick them up and such. You take care of them kids, man. We trust you. Hey, I trust listening to y'all. Y'all doing a good job, man. I appreciate y'all.

All right, but you're doing some important work, too. We appreciate you. All right, thank you. Thank you, Miss E. Love you. Y'all be good. All right, you too. Hello, who's this?

Yo, good morning. This is Jermaine with Bombay Vodka. What's going on, y'all? Jermaine, what up? Get it off your chest. Hey, man, I just want to big y'all up, man. Just an interview with Will Smith and Maureen Lawrence, man. That's a testament to how far The Breakfast Club has come.

That's one of them benchmark interviews, man, for the books. So, man, big up to y'all. Angela Yee. Yes, sir. I want to big you up, too, man. Your humor is very underrated, yo. It's very quick. It's very smart at the same time.

And I think it's very underrated. So, big up to you, miss. Well, thank you, sir. One more thing, Envy. I need one of them doorbell cameras, yo. I know you only giving 40 away, but I need one of those. You giving away cameras? No, no, that's through Sloman Shield.

Oh, I was like, you giving away cameras? No, no, no, it's through Sloman Shield. They had a thing where they gave away a certain amount of tickets, a certain amount of doorbell rings or something like that, cameras for doorbells. Oh, that's nice. Yeah, I hear it every day, so I was wondering if you still had any on deck. Nah, we ain't got no more on deck, brother.

Hello, who's this? Yo, it's Quest. What's good? Quest, what up? Get it off your chest. Hey, man. How y'all doing? What's up, man? What's going on, Charlotte, man? What up, King? Good morning. I don't know if I should feel a certain kind of way

about this, but so I got this trip playing with my girl or whatever, and, you know, she kind of, you know, stepped out on me or whatever.

Oh. But her friend, her friend is going to be there, you know, and she kind of, like, tells her all my business and whatnot, and I kind of feel

like a certain kind of way. Or should I feel a certain kind of way about that? You can't be worried about what other people think. That's how you really mess up your relationship, letting outside people affect it. Yeah, you can't, can't be worried about what other people think. That's how you really mess up your relationship,

letting outside people affect it. Yeah, you can't. No, you should care what other people think, but don't let other people, what other people think control you. It's a difference. Right, right, right, right. Yeah, yeah, I mean, because, yeah, I don't know,

like, she be telling her all my business from, like, ever since we started talking. So, yeah. No, y'all right, though. Y'all right, though. I'm going to just try to keep a positive mind.

We are The Breakfast Club. Let's get to the rumors. Let's talk Will Smith and Martin Lawrence. It's time. She's spilling the tea. This is The Rumor Report with Angela Yee on The Breakfast Club. Well, congratulations to Will Smith and Martin Lawrence. They also were named honorary officers of the Miami Police Department.

So all of that right before Bad Boys for Life comes out. That's fun. That means they can arrest people? I don't know if they can necessarily do that. What comes with that? Didn't Shaq have that at one time? Shaq was like a volunteer police officer or something. Yeah, but Shaq used to actually go on raids and stuff like that.

So can Martin and Will actually lock people up in Miami if they want to? Maybe if they see somebody doing something wrong, they should. That's dope. I really would like to know what kind of privileges and benefits come with being an honorary police officer. But they also got the key to the city of Miami, so congratulations to them. Now for everybody making fun

of Trick Daddy, he wants you to know that he has lupus as he's expressed on many different occasions and that's why his hairline looks the way that it does. And here's his message. Let me get this right. You lie on me, make fun of the fact that I have lupus and all this just for likes. Thank God I'm strong. Everything is funny until it hits close to home. My feelings don't hurt easily. I'm too worried about waking up tomorrow. I understand him totally, but social media don't care. You'll never get sympathy or empathy from social media.

And the problem with social media, once the joke starts, it's not like they're going to put that toothpaste back in the tube. Back in the day, you would say,

your mama jokes to somebody and that person would be like, man, my mama dead. But then it's over after that. Now? Not on social media. Your mama dead. Then they're going to start

making jokes about your mama being dead. All right, now Spike Lee has made history. He is the first black filmmaker to preside over the Cannes Film Festival jury. So congratulations to him.

He said, in response to that role, he said that this is his biggest blessings, and they have happened out of nowhere. He said, I'm honored to be the first person to be named president of the Cannes, or first African diaspora of a main film festival. He said, to me, the Cannes Film Festival,

besides being the most important film festival in the world, no disrespect to anybody, has had a great impact on my film career. You could easily say Cannes changed the trajectory of who I became in world cinema. So congratulations. Congratulations to Spike. Now let's talk about Oscar nominations. And as you know, Issa Rae was on hand to help actually announce who was nominated.

And let's discuss numbers. Joker got the most nominations with 11, including Best Actor nominee Joaquin Phoenix. And then there were three movies that got 10 nominations. That was Martin Scorsese's The Irishman. Also 1970's Sam Mendes. Quentin Tarantino's Once Upon a Time in Hollywood also was nominated. So those were the highest nominations. I still haven't seen Joke yet, and everybody tells me I would enjoy it.

It's a great movie. Because it's a movie about, it says there's a lot of symbols about mental health in there. Absolutely. Did you see The Irishman? Did y'all see The Irishman? Yes. Too long. Three and a half hours. I don't have that kind of time. The Irishman was pretty good too. And I saw Once Upon a Time in Hollywood. I haven't seen that yet either. And I love Quentin Tarantino

but I haven't watched it. Alright, now in addition to that, Netflix got the most nominations with 24. And I think that's a record also that actually makes history too because that's the first time a streaming service has gotten the most nominations as far as the Oscars. So that's a big deal.

Now, when actually announcing the Best Director nominations, here's what Issa Rae had to say during those announcements. The Irishman, Martin Scorsese. Joker, Todd Phillips. 1917, Sam Mendes. Once Upon a Time in Hollywood, Quentin Tarantino. And Parasite, Bong Joon-ho. I did it? I did it? Thank you so much. Congratulations to those men.

To those men, because it was all men, so people were having issues with that. Now let's talk about who wasn't nominated, and people look at this as snubs. Jennifer Lopez in Hustlers. A lot of people thought that this was a shoo-in and at least be nominated, right? I haven't even seen it, and I feel she got snubbed. How do you say that if you haven't seen it?

Don't argue with me. She got snubbed, God damn it. Did you see it? Yes, I saw it. How was it? I enjoyed it. I watched that. Look, you know I see every movie on the plane.

I didn't see that one. I haven't seen that. I watched that on the plane also. I just know that if everybody's saying J-Lo, who notoriously has not been known for being a good actress, should be nominated for an Oscar, then that means she should have been nominated for an Oscar because that role must have been phenomenal.

No, she did a great job in that movie. And remember, I told you they're supposedly going to make that into a Broadway play. They're in the beginning stages of that. She got robbed. Also, Uncut Gems, I told you they're supposedly going to make that into a Broadway play. They're in the beginning stages of that. She got robbed. Also, Uncut Gems. I've never seen that. But Adam Sandler

wasn't too happy about not getting nominated also for anything for that. Eddie Murphy, Dolomite is my name. I saw that. Definitely got robbed. I saw that too.

Lupita for Us. Oh, yes. A lot of people felt like she got robbed because, I mean, let's keep it real, she played two different people in that movie

and that was a lot of skill. I love us. A lot of people said they didn't like us. I actually loved us. I thought it was great. All right. Also, Robert De Niro for The Irishman. A lot of people feel like he should have gotten nominated also.

What about Awkwafina for The Farewell? Awkwafina should have been nominated too. That too. After she made history at the Golden Globes for The Farewell, they thought that she would at least get a nomination. That movie would at least get a nomination, because that movie didn't. They even thought that a Best Director nomination should have been possible, and Best Actress for Awkwafina also.

I thought the Golden Globes were like a prerequisite for the Oscars. I thought once you get nominated for the Golden Globe or win a Golden Globe, you're automatically qualified. It's not automatic, but people use that as a predictor. We can predict who's gonna be nominated or who will win an Oscar based off of that, but it doesn't mean it's shoo-in. It just means that's how they can

predict. Well, I don't know how y'all fronted on Awkwafina, but you know. And Ava DuVernay, and When They See Us, and the cast of When They See Us, no nominations. But that wasn't a movie, though. And a lot of people had issues with that also. Nah, because it's not a movie. Like, it was a limited series. I don't think limited series get nominated for Oscars.

Oscars are for films. All right, well. So they couldn't have been nominated. That is your rumor report. I'm Angela Yee. All right, we got front page news. What are we talking about? Yes, we are going to talk about

who just dropped out of the presidential campaign. 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 Guy. We's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. Morning, everybody. It's DJ, MV, Angela

Yee, Charlamagne Tha God. We are the Breakfast Club. Let's get some front page news. Now, last night in the college national championship game, LSU beat Clemson 42-25. What else are we talking about, Yee? Well, Cory Booker, he has dropped out of the 2020 presidential campaign, and here's

what he had to say. Today, I'm suspending my campaign for president with the same spirit with which it began. I can't wait to get back on the campaign trail and campaign as hard as I can for whoever is the eventual nominee and for candidates up and down the ballot. But for now, I want to say thank you. Campaigning over this last year has been one of the most meaningful experiences of my life. Meeting you, meeting people across this country who believe, who know that we may have challenges right now in our nation. But together, we will rise.

It sucks that there's more billionaires running in the Democratic presidential race than black people right now, especially three years after having the first black president. I guess of all, Patrick's still in it, but not really. Now, Rosario Dawson, his girlfriend, said, Corey, you continue to inspire me every day on this journey.

You and your remarkable team have represented the best in us, and I know you will continue to. Thank you. I see you. I love you.

All right. Corey was starting to grow on me, though. I liked him, especially in the debates. Even though he had a lot of canned, rehearsed lines,

he was still good in the debates. All right. Now, a library in Pittsburgh found out that it was missing $8 million of its rarest items. How could something like this happen? Well, three years later, a man who worked there admitted that he sold those items to a local bookstore. These two men have pleaded guilty to theft, one of them, and for receiving stolen property for the person who owned the bookstore after receiving those books. Now, Gregory Piore is a former archivist at the Carnegie Library of Pittsburgh.

He was originally charged with 10 counts, but pleaded down to theft of unlawful taking and receiving stolen property. Both counts are felonies. And John Shulman was the owner of the Caliban Bookshop. He received 20 charges and pleaded guilty to a forgery charge in addition to theft by deception and receiving

stolen property. Man, what the hell is in a public library that's worth $8 million? Man, they have all kinds of rare stuff. Now, you know, I go to the library

all the time as an ambassador and they have like first edition of books. For instance, one item that he had was a 1787 first edition signed copy

of Thomas Jefferson's book. So imagine how rare something like that is. Somebody that's a collector could do that. So the guy paid for it. He has to give it back and he loses his money and he goes to jail. Well, some of those I don't think they can actually get back. They did get back. They determined that there were 320 items missing and 16 additional items were diminished,

which means they were damaged beyond the original condition so badly and didn't have the complete work. So they did retrieve back some of those items, but not all of them. Some of them have been sold. Some of them were damaged. They did search a warehouse. They found 42 items. 18 were damaged, and it detracts from their initial value.

So a lot of stuff is just still missing. I would love to know where he went to go sell those things. Like, where do you go Just to sell off books Signed by Thomas Jefferson Damn sure ain't the hood You know why Nevermind

Why Well these items Were sold to different vendors To individuals And things like that Over the years And mind you They've been doing this

For like 25 years So it took that long For somebody who was Going through the inventory And doing an audit To realize that That many things were missing. You want to say it? Why?

All niggas don't read. But it's N-words that don't read. Black people absolutely do read. But N-words don't read. It's the difference between black people and N-words. That's what I want to say. So if you steal those books from the public library, it's not like you're going to go in the hood with those books and be like, yo, I got these books. You know what I'm saying?

It's time to check the sun. Somebody going to hit you with the, my son can't eat no books. Oh, my goodness. DMX, belly. All right. Well, that is your front page news. Now, when we come back, let's talk Young Jock. Now, Young Jock, a clip of Young Jock was all circulating online a couple of days ago because he is now Uber or a ride share driver, right, E?

Yes, it's not Uber. it's not Lyft, it's like a different, what's it called? Pull up. I gotta look up the name of it. Pull up and go, something like that. I think it's pull up and go. I know, pull up something. Alright, so we're asking $800, $585, $105, $105. By the way, great marketing for this company. Absolutely.

I would hope Young Jock has some equity in this company. I would hope he invested in it. It's a good marketing scheme. We're asking $-585-1051. People were talking about why he did it. He had his hood on like he didn't want people to see him driving. So we're asking, are there any side hustles that you were ashamed of? 800-585-1051. Are there any side hustles you were ashamed of?

I wouldn't call it a side hustle, but I definitely had a job I was ashamed of. Which one? I used to work at the Flower Garden in Moncks Corner, South Carolina. What is the Flower Garden? It used to be like this big, just acres and acres and acres of flowers and different plants. And it was just like me and a whole bunch of Mexicans working out there. So you would pick flowers? Yeah, because I had just gotten kicked out of school.

So I was like, you would have to stand by the side of the road sometimes. You would want to be in the middle or way off because if you had to

stand by the side of the road people could see you and the bus would come by and people could see me out there working with the Mexicans. So you would pick

flowers all day? I mean flowers, it was all kinds of plants. It was just plants, a bunch of potted plants. How long did you do that for? A week. Got fired by a dude named Dominique. How long did you do that for? A week. Got fired by a dude named Dominique.

How did you get fired? Because you can't steal flowers? Dominique said, you don't fit in here. He was absolutely right, God damn it. All right? Goodness gracious. All right. 800-585-1051.

We're talking side hustles you're ashamed of. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. Pull out your phone. Call in right now. Call me. Add your opinion to The Breakfast Club topic. Break it down.

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, 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. You're trying your best and you're going to figure out the rhythm of this thing. Alicia Keys, like you've never heard her before. Listen to On Purpose with Jay Shetty on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. Now, if you just joined us, we were talking about Young Jock. Now, he was spotted around being a rideshare driver, and people were talking about him driving and the fact that, you know, did he feel a way about driving?

Young Jockey came out and he said he wasn't ashamed of his job. But we're asking 805-85-1051, are there any side hustles that you are ashamed of? I did. I mean, I was a ball boy at the U.S. Open. I was a telemarketer. Hi, this is Sean from Pelco Fuel. But there's nothing that I'm ashamed of. I'm not ashamed of any of those jobs.

I definitely was ashamed when I used to work at the Flower Garden in Moncks Corner, South Carolina off Highway 52. Only because I was still relatively young and I was out there working with all the Mexicans. And when the bus would come by, people that I actually was in school with would see me. I definitely was ashamed when I used to work at Taco Bell and the reason I was ashamed when I used to work at Taco Bell is because this is right after I was, you know, selling crack and went to jail for selling crack and so I still would try to pull up on the

block and see what's popping and I remember one time my man Tony said I had on the purple Taco Bell shirt with the dickies and he said, look at this mother******. He used to have a real **** job. Now he works at Taco Bell. Then he tried to speak some like,

Cotello Taco, Cotello Taco Bell. Not your bell, God damn, God damn. He was just making all these like, random, like whatever noises he thought, whatever race he thought ate tacos, he was just talking like that. That was embarrassing.

What about you, Yee? Any side jobs? Any side hustles? I actually never had a job that I was ashamed of. I worked at the supermarket on campus. Okay. But I enjoyed it. I stole a lot of things while I was there.

Great, great. And that actually helped me get through college. Yeah. And I worked at, there's a job I hated. I did, I worked for an agency, a temp agency, and I had to just open envelopes all day, and I quit after two days. It was terrible. There was no windows, no phones, nothing. My wife had to sell mattresses door to door.

I know that would suck. Oh, I wouldn't want to go door to door. She had to go to the hood and the projects and go sell mattresses to people. Yeah, that's got to suck. Especially when you're a woman, going in the hood, door to door, that's like a Bang Bros pornoes to people. Yeah, that's got to suck. Yeah, that was... Especially when you're a woman going in the hood, door to door. That's like a Bang Bros porno waiting to happen. That is a good opening scene

for a porno. Pretty woman comes to your door. Hi, I'm selling mattresses. Me and her mother, you just have to go with her to make sure that she was okay. Wow, and a mom? Yo, this right here

is a great porno. Bang Bros, highlight us. Hello, who's this? We got a storyline. Hello, who's this? This is your boy, Juha, calling from out of the Carolinas. Ju, what job did you, what's your name? Ju, J-U-H-A-N-G.

All right, I just want to make sure I'm saying it right. Now, Ju, what job did you have that you were ashamed of? Taking big women for money. How much you got paid? Man, you know, I got paid at least a hundred every week. You know what I'm saying? She take me out, buy me shoes,

you know, pay some bills, you know. You know, she do a couple of things for me, you know, but that was just my little side hustle,

you know. You know what the baby say? I'm a fat bitch and the fat bitch ought to get some money. Oh, excuse my language. I forgot this. Excuse your language now.

Christ. Goodness gracious. What do you apologize for, the fat or the bitch? Hello, who's this? Stephanie. Hey? Stephanie. Hey, Stephanie. We're talking about side hustles you're ashamed of.

I used to go door to door selling Kirby. Vacuums. Yeah. I hate a job, man. We wouldn't open the door for y'all. We'd let you keep ringing. I hate a job. These are all some good porno storylines.

Because you selling vacuums as a woman, you you're like, yo, how good does this suck? You know what? You suck better than the vacuum. You were kinky this morning, bro. It's called a storyline. Honestly, though, it's funny that he says that, because I encountered stuff like that. I know you did.

And they actually did let me in and stuff like that. I went through that, so yeah. It was a lot. And then I was in my neighborhood where I live, so. What's the nastiest line a guy told you? What's the nastiest line a guy told you? What's the nastiest line a guy told you? He was trying to something similar to what you just said. Like, you know, how good is this stuff?

Or are you going to get on your knees and show me how good it is or something like that? See what I'm saying? Wow, now that's crazy. No, what's crazy is y'all think I'm crazy when I say stuff like this. Y'all did demos? Oh, my goodness. Yeah, we would have to get on our knees and do the carpet and stuff like that. We did demos. Y'all did demos? Oh, my goodness. Yeah, we would have to get on our knees and do the carpet and stuff like that.

You cannot tell me this would not be a great storyline for a porno. 800- Y'all remember porno with the storylines? 585-1051. Yes. This is how it starts. This is how it starts.

Goodness gracious. We're asking, are there any side hustles you're ashamed of? Call us now. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. I know it. I know it. I know it. I know it. I know it. I know it. I know it. I know it. I know it. I know it. I know it. I know it. I know it. I know it. I know it. I know it. I know it. I know it. I know it. I know it. I know it. I know it. I know.

We are The Breakfast Club. Now, if you just joined us, we're talking about side hustles you are ashamed of. All right? 800-585-1051. Charlamagne used to pick flowers. I used to work at a flower garden in Moncks Corner, South Carolina. It was right off of Highway 52. It's not there no more.

All the land is there. I don't know what it's about to be. Did you have to sell the flowers like on the side of the road? No, we used to just have to like take them because they would be potted and we would just have to

put them on like this cart and I don't know where they would go after that. I literally worked there for like four or five days because I quit because my pride could not take it. I was too embarrassed.

I thought you said you got fired. Well, it saved difference. I got fired. Dominique fired me. But I was sitting on the side of the road and like they would like ride by on the bus and be looking at me and laughing fired me. But I was sitting on the side of the road and they would ride by on the bus and be looking at me

and laughing at me. I was larried in. Hello? What's up, guys? What's your name? My name is Bob. Okay, Bob. Hey, Bob. Sounds fake to me. Alright, Bob. That's my real name, Bob. I got an embarrassing style

so I massage old ladies' feet. Bob, are you a man or a woman? I'm a man. Okay. I respect your side hustle. He said he massages old ladies' feet. Go. Tell me more.

I make good money doing it. Sometimes I enjoy it. Sometimes I don't. Now, why do you think this is an embarrassing side hustle? I used to love rubbing my grandma's feet when she used to soak them in Epsom salt. I wish she was still here for me to do that. What's the problem?

Because it's old ladies. I don't know. Sometimes I'm massaging 90-year-old ladies. You like to massage your 90-year-old lady's feet? Yes, if it's bringing her joy. And guess what?

When you get 90 years old, you're going to want somebody to rub your old feet, too. I feel you. I feel you, bro. I just want an embarrassing side hustle, man. Tay!

Yes? Are there some side hust hustle, man. Tay. Yes. Are there some side hustles you're ashamed of? Yes. Delivering pizzas. What's wrong with delivering pizzas? Because I was already working, you know, in the hospital. So doing the side hustle and delivering pizzas, I was being left out of certain, you know? How was they looking at you?

You're just delivering pizza. I don't look at the pizza delivery person anyway. I was a female too. In the hood? Yeah. Tell me more about this great porno storyline. So you was a young woman delivering pizza in the hood. Go.

What was the nastiest thing somebody said to you? You seen that one? I think I've seen that one too. Really? Well, how'd you know though? How'd you know? So what, you pull up and they be like, yo, Dama Holes is here. What they would say.

No, definitely not. She's like. I'm going to just give my money. Thank you. Goodness gracious. So you didn't do it? No, definitely not. She's like, I'm not here for that.

Hello, who's this? This is Danny. Danny, we're talking. What's up, bro? We're talking. Are there any side hustles you're ashamed of, Danny? Yeah, they are. First of all, Charlamagne and Angel Adi.

MB, what's up? What's up, K? Yeah, there was two side hustles, actually. One was selling drugs. I was never proud of that. It was hard. Okay. The one that really messed with me was my man had a kennel for breeding pit bulls.

And when they came trying to mate them, I kind of had to arouse the dog and help him out to mate. What? Now, this porno storyline is amazing. Now you got to explain, how did you arouse the dog and help him out to me. What? Now this porno storyline is amazing. Now you gotta explain, how did you arouse the dog, man? Well, you kinda gotta get them, you know, to smell the female

part, and then you kinda like, you know. So you take the dog's head and force it into the dog's vagina. We don't know, tell us. You kinda help him up, you kinda f*** him up a like, you know. So you take the dog's head and force it into the dog's vagina. We don't know. Tell us. You kind of help him up. You kind of help him up.

You kind of **** him up a little, you know. You had to **** that up. Oh, come on. You pleasure the pit bull. It's real. You got to **** him up a little bit and then you help him get in. So how do you know when he's pleasured? When that little pink thing just comes out? Yes.

Yeah, it pops up. But you know what's crazy? Yeah. That sometimes the dogs are like premature ejaculators. Oh, I've seen it a million times. What? A million times? They don't even got to put it in, and they'll just start s***ing all over the place.

So you got some on you? Yes. I used to, well, I wore gloves, but yeah, he used to s*** off on me sometimes. The pit bulls s*** off in your face. That is crazy. You know what's crazy? Imagine sometimes. The pitbulls f***ed off in your face. That is crazy. You know what's crazy? Imagine the conversations the pitbulls having with each other. You all f***ed off in that drug dealer's face.

Goodness gracious. A pitbull gave you a f***. All right. What's the moral of the story? There's nothing wrong with working. I don't think anybody should have a job that they're ashamed of other than doing something that they shouldn't be doing in the first place to make some money. Like, you know't think anybody should have a job that they're ashamed of other than, you know, doing something that they shouldn't be doing

in the first place to make some money. Like, you know, I used to sell crack. You know, or this guy was... I don't think there's nothing wrong

with f***ing off pit bulls, though. Yeah. And now if he's doing it for the process of breeding them so they, you know, get bought to go fight, that's wrong.

I think that's one job I don't think I could do. Yeah, I don't think I want to do that one. I don't think I could do that. Nah, I think I'll pass on that one. Yeah, yeah. But honest living is honest living,

so it's nothing that you should be ashamed of. You're right. But Yee, we got rumors on the way? Let's talk about Antonio Brown. Apparently, he threw a bag of penises. These porno storylines are amazing. Goodness gracious. What happens when you catch the bag of penises?

I know what we're doing for Freaky Freaky on Friday, my goodness. What happens after that? We when you catch the bag of penises? I know what we're doing for Freaky Freaky. You eat that. My goodness. What happens after that? We'll talk about the bag of penises when we come back. Don't move. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning.

Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God. We are the Breakfast Club. Good morning. What's happening? Let's get to these rumors. Let's talk Roddy Ricch. Listen up.

It's just in. All the gossip. Gossip. The rumor report. Gossip. With Angela Yee. It's thedy Rich. The box is the number one song in the country. Congratulations, man. Congratulations, man. Clues bomb for Roddy Rich. The white people tried to box Roddy Rich out. They was trying to manipulate the system to get Justin Bieber at number one. The coaches said, nah. Well, Justin Bieber obviously was trying to get that number one slot.

He actually came in at number two with Yummy. He posted, thanks, everyone. So thankful. Hashtag Yummy. Roddy Ricch, you had to go and make a banger. SMH, ha ha, you're the man. Love the song. Congrats on your first number one.

Everyone go stream the box. And I love how Roddy Ricch tweeted out Ghostream Justin Bieber's yummy. Yeah, because Justin Bieber actually tried to put out some instructions on how to make yummy number one. And he was telling people to buy it twice, to go and stream it, so on and so forth. And Roddy Ricch's response was just Ghostream yummy.

I like that young man, Roddy Ricch, man. He's got a good head on his shoulders and he makes really good music. I think he's going to be around for a while. All right, now shout out to Akon. He has announced the finalization of Akon City in Senegal. Come on now. This is dope.

Come on now. Let me put some chaps to go on for this one, god damn it. He said, looking forward to hosting you there in the future. Lord have mercy. Yes, he said it's a 10-year building block, so we're doing it in stages. We started construction in March and stage two is going to be 2025. Dropping a clues bar for Akonon. I love it.

These are the kind of moves that inspire me. I got to put lotion on because I don't even want to remote. This story makes me feel ashy. It makes me feel like I'm not doing enough with my life. Yeah, that's what makes me feel like I'm not doing enough. I bought a couple little houses. He bought a whole city out here. Jeez.

Dropping a Clues Bomb for Akon again. That's amazing. That's different, by the way. You got to make that trip to Akon City. We have all these conversations about building our own and building our own communities. Akon don't even be talking about it. He just be out there doing it. He just did.

God, they want my face lotion. Where is my Cetaphil? There you go. All right. Now, R. Kelly's ex-girlfriend, Azriel Clary, has been reunited with her family. Well, they live at Akon City? No. So, she was only 17, by the way,

when she went to go live with R. Kelly and Joycelyn Savage. She's now 22 years old. And so she put up some pictures of herself with her family and she captioned it, Surprise, let the healing process begin. Love y'all and thank y'all.

I even thank everyone who follows me because you all believed in me when I could not believe for myself. And then she put the hashtag moving on to better days. So hopefully now she can do some healing because that had to be traumatic being with R. Kelly since she was 17 years old.

Man. Not being around her family and now she can get back to where she needs to be. Hope she gets some therapy. I just want to tell you guys, all that breathing and all that smacking of the mic and all that Charlamagne lotion in his face. I'll put lotion on. You should see my daughter. My daughter loves imitating me. I put lotion on. You should see my daughter. My daughter loves imitating me when I put lotion on.

I felt ashy. I'm not going to lie. That Akon story made me feel ashy as hell. All right. Now let's talk about Antonio Brown. There was a very bizarre incident that happened at his house in Florida. Cops responded he was having a dispute with his children's mother, and it got pretty bad.

And they said that Antonio Brown repeatedly told the officers that he had evicted this woman from his home and allowed her on the property so she could pick up the kids, take them to school, and she tried to steal one of his cars during this time and he wasn't having it and, you know, things got a little

crazy. Here's Antonio Brown. She came in to take the kids to school. The kids not getting to school. She don't have no car. This bitch is a baser. She have two other kids. She stay at a hotel. Look at her. She's a lost cause. Look at her. This white versus black right here. Your face right here. The NFL.

This is real life. White people trying to get over basers and the police not helping. Trying to finesse a Bentley. Bitch, you don't drive Billings. This is not your life. The bag of dicks. Hey, Charles, here go the bag of d***s. I'm confused. He threw a bag of

penises. Isn't that his baby mother? Yes. If she doesn't have a car, how is the kids going to get to school? Listen, I was going to ask why is Antonio Brown, you know, walking around with a bag of penises, but, you know, I got a whole... It's gummy candies, by the way,

for people who didn't see it. So you just throw those in your mouth? It's just something that you want? I mean, I would, but, you know, I got a whole mold in my ass behind me, so who am I to just talk about random things that people have, okay? But why do people with the last name Brown double down on everything that people don't like about them?

What you mean? Like who? Like Bobby, Chris, Antonio. Like, it's like when they get labeled something and people think they're this terrible person, why do they double down on that? You know what I mean? We saw Chris Brown do that back in the day. We saw Bobby do that back in the day. Why is Antonio doing that now?

Why do you just become this rebel thug, F everybody instead of actually maybe listening to what people are saying about you and like cleaning it up a little bit. All right. Now, Lori Harvey has been charged in hit and run case.

And that's over the situation where her car flipped over. She had the G wagon and now she's being officially charged with one count of resisting, delaying, obstructing a police officer and one count of hit and run resulting in property damage.

Both of them are misdemeanors, but she is officially being charged now. When did this happen? This happened earlier. So this was, what month was this? They just charged her now? Yeah, they just charged her. Because she's on vacation. She's living her best life.

Wow. Why y'all ruining her vacation, man? The worst thing in the world is when you're on vacation and you're having a great time and then you got to come back home to reality and deal with stupid stuff like that. Why? Why y'all ruining that? She said life is good. She's having a great time. So they're both misdemeanors. Why y'all ruining that? She said life is good. She's having a great time.

So they're both misdemeanors. Why y'all ruining that young lady's piece? You know what it is? Somebody saw her this weekend with Future and got mad and was like, let's hit her with these charges today. Yeah, I mean... I wonder where does that hit and run stand from?

They said she was texting and driving. And so the crash was pretty bad. I mean, if my car flipped over... She allegedly smashed into another car, tried to leave the scene. They found her walking down the street, not far from the accident. And so now she's being charged. And they said it's because she was texting. All right.

Now we got a shout out to Miss Anita. She worked here for how long did Miss Anita work here at iHeart? I think 19 years, 19 and a half years. More than that. I thought it was like 19 and a half. She said almost 20 years. No, 19 and a half years. I thought it was think 19 years, 19 and a half years. Nah, more than that. I thought it was like... 19 and a half. Yeah, she said almost 20 years. No, 19 and a half years. I thought it was 25.

No, 19 and a half. Right, and Will Smith was up here with Martin Lawrence, as y'all know, the other day. And he did a post. He said, my favorite moments on the road are the ones when I connect with people like Anita. I met her at the front desk before one of my very first interviews of my career. And yesterday, I was lucky enough to see her off into retirement 30 years later. She said I made her day. Y'all, she made mine.

Enjoy yourself, mama, and keep spreading that love and light wherever you go. We're going to miss her so much up here. Absolutely. But here is Will Smith with Anita. Oh, my God. Oh, my God! Oh my God! Oh my God! Oh my God! Oh my God!

Oh my God! I can't believe it! I'm retiring sweetheart! Yeah my God! Will I met you like 30 years ago when you were at Westwood One you came in, you were just getting started and I met you then

for the first time and now to have you back again. It's full circle. God, I love you. You're amazing. Oh my God. You're going to miss mama. You're going to miss mama up here, man. Dropping the clues bombs for Mrs. Nita Scipio.

One of the purest souls in the universe. Always say if Sage was an actual person, it would be her. Sweetest person. Always had a big smile on her face. Made everybody feel so welcome to be up here. She makes Chick-fil-A workers look like Satan worshipers, god damn it. That's how sweet Miss Anita is. Nicest person ever.

I don't know who's going to fill those shoes. Nobody. That's impossible. I feel sorry for the person who's the next receptionist here at iHeart because, let's be honest with you, we'll never love you the way we love Miss Anita. Not at all. It's really how you start your day. You walk in, the first face you see is Miss Anita.

She's always smiling, pleasant, cheerful, always got a great greeting. I love her. Because it's not just about manners and being nice. It's a spirit. It's a spirit. It's an energy. It's a very rare energy. Like, everybody don't have that. And I've never seen her upset.

I've never seen her in a bad mood. Never. She warned me about one person one time, and she was absolutely right. And she didn't even say it in a bad way. God bless Miss Anita Scipio. Yes, but we will miss you so much, Miss Anita. And let the record show I know

Donkey of the day for Tuesday, January 14th goes to four young men from Cleveland Heights, Ohio. Now, two of the men aren't named because they are only 17, but I do have two names because they are 19 and 18, and their names are Jeremy Perry and Isaiah Welch. Salute to everybody who listened to us on Real 106.1 in Cleveland.

What's happening? Drop one of Clues bombs for Real 106.1 in Cleveland, please. Now, this morning, as I was riding in the work, the energy I was on was my guy, Stephen Furtick. And he gave a sermon titled Kingdom Clout. And he talked about how when you attach your significance to status, it's never enough. And I think about that when it comes to social media, people who do things for social media status, regardless of how many likes they get, regardless of how many followers they get, it's never enough. And when you do things for likes and followers, you will always be doing things for likes and followers. And the more likes and followers you get, the more you get rewarded for whatever it is you're doing on social media to get those likes and followers. And you will continue to do it, not just do it, but turn up

on whatever it is. All right. Look, we've all been there. Even if you are a grown ass man like myself, at some point in your life, there was some type of ignorant, bad behavior you were being rewarded for. And that reward felt good good so you turned up on whatever the ignorance was and eventually you cannibalize yourself because you were doing whatever you're doing for the wrong reasons and usually that reason is this thing this era calls clout okay in our day we called it the juice you know i'm saying you got the juice all right mainstream america calls it popularity whatever it is it a drug. And this generation wants that drug. They want that drug called clout. They want that juice, that popularity more than they want anything else.

OK, more than they want money, more than they want sex, more than they want peace of mind. They want those likes and followers and they don't care who they traumatize in the process to get it. OK, in this case, this young 17 old uh unnamed young man from cleveland heights ohio traumatized his mother yes the vagina from which he came let me put this in context for you this teenager is a youtuber a youtuber who plays pranks for views all right well this kid decided to pull a prank on his mother not just any kind of prank though let's go to wjw fox 8 for the report please 9-1-1 where's your emergency, I'm in Cleveland Heights. I just did a fake robbery prank on my mom and she ran and I know she called the police. She's nowhere to be found.

Cleveland Heights police say a 17-year-old boy's idea of playing a prank on his mother was to conspire with three of his friends who covered their faces and confronted the 40-year-old woman in her driveway and ordered her into her house where they pointed a gun at her head, told her to get on the floor and demanded her money. When the 17-year-old staged a fight with the intruders, his terrified mother ran out of the house. At the same time, a homeowner on a neighboring street called 911 to report a woman in distress was hiding on his porch and asking for help. The teenager told investigators that he actually videotaped his mom being terrorized as entertainment for his YouTube channel. All right, can you explain to me what happened and why you did that to your

mother? I do YouTube, so I did a YouTube prank. The 17-year-old and one of his friends are facing juvenile charges. The two adults who took part in the stunt, 19-year-old Isaiah Welch and 18-year-old Jeremy Perry, are facing charges that include inducing panic. Yep, yep, yep, yep, yep. So you mean to tell me that you traumatized your mother, gave her anxiety probably for the rest of her life because you wanted YouTube views? You know how your mama said, my nerve's bad? Her nerves are going to be bad forever because of this. What if your mother would have had a pistol and shot one of y'all what if a neighbor would have saw the commotion and grabbed their pistol and came over and shot y'all fools what if your mother would have had a heart attack in the midst of this fake robbery these are the kinds

of stunts you do when you are seeking more and more of something that doesn't mean anything and social media status truly doesn't mean anything and social media status truly doesn't mean anything and as my man steven furtick said when you attach your significance to status social media status whatever kind of status it is it's never enough all right this is what happens when you let what other people think control you okay because you're only doing this to please a bunch of people who don't know you you went through the motions of fake robbing your mother because you wanted these digital D heads online that you're never going to meet to like you. Once again, this is what happens when you let what other people think control you.

So please gather around as I share with you some words from my Mount's Corner brethren, pastor of Elevation Church in Charlotte, Carolina Stephen Furtick he has a word for you this is from his sermon Kingdom clout part one when Elijah started talking to me about clout clout chasers and how people do anything for clout I think he was quoting offset or one of the other theologians from those three apostles, but he was saying how these days kids are really obsessed with popularity. It's different than it was when we were kids. We were focused on serving God and making a difference in our world. These days, kids will do anything for clout. They're driven and obsessed by what people think about them. They spend their time trying to prove stuff to people who aren't even paying

attention. It's okay to care what people think about you. It is not okay to be controlled by what people think about you. That's right. Kids, it's okay controlled by what people think about you. That's right. Kids, it's okay to care what people think, but don't let what people think control you or you'll end up doing dumbass stunts like these folks. Please let Remy Ma give Isaiah Welch, Jeremy Perry, and the two unnamed 17-year-old kids the biggest hee-haw. Hee-haw, hee-haw.

You stupid motherfucker. You dumb mother******, you dumb. All right. All right. Listen, we have to play a game of Guess What? Race It Is! All right. Let me give you your clues. I'm listening.

Four kids from Cleveland Heights, Ohio, 19, 18 to 17-year-olds, staged a fake robbery on his mother for YouTube views. Angelina, guess what race it is. That's a tough one. At first, I initially thought African-American. Why? Then I thought Caucasian. I don't know. It could be anybody because kids are just dumb.

They could be a mixture of things. Yeah. So I don't know. I'm going to say Caucasian. DJ Envy? Yes. I have to say. Four kids, Cleveland Heights, Ohio, 19, 18, 217-year-oldsolds fake robbed their mom for YouTube views.

I got to go with white. I got to go with white. Black kids usually don't play like that because they can get shot or stabbed. Yeah. I tell the story all the time. When I came home late at night in my house, I used to have to yell, so my dad would hear me and didn't think I was sneaking in the house. So I would have to go with white.

And we love our moms very, very much. We don't play that. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Well, Angela, you said black, right? No, I said Caucasian. Caucasian. I said initially I thought that. White.

DJ Envy says Caucasian. I'm going to be honest with you. I don't know if you guys are right or not, but I know that the two people who actually got arrested, that they showed their mug shots, they were niggers. Powerful niggers. Young and words.

Okay. Now, the other two unnamed minors could possibly be white or some other race. I don't know. They haven't put their pictures out there. They haven't put their faces out there. But we don't play with our mamas like that, though. Isaiah Welch and Jeremy Parame, they are absolutely black. This generation different.

You know, we come from the generation where we would look at white kids and how they used to talk to their moms and be like, boy, I would never. My mom would kill me. This generation, they don't care because it's all about those YouTube views. You know what this generation cares about? What? They care about what people think about them. And more importantly, they let what people think about them control them, and it causes them to do stuff like this. Yes. So Isaiah Welch and Jeremy Perry are definitely a Negro of African descent.

I don't know what the others are. All right, well, thank you for that donkey of the day. I feel like that could have been any race. Yeah, true, but, you know. Because it's kids. I don't play with my mom and dad like that. But for you, but for YouTube, it's different. You didn't have YouTube growing up.

Yeah, but still, my kids know that if they play with me like that, they have a chance of getting shot. I would have loved to see Envy on YouTube. Eaten up by a dog. Yeah. I know Envy was ridiculous on YouTube. Envy would have been ridiculous on YouTube growing up. All right.

Well, thank you for that, Dawg, for today. When we come back, we have Adjua and Styles P will be joining us. That's Styles P and his wife. And are we going to talk to them when we come back? They're going to be on this season of Marriage Boot Camp also. And you saw them on Black Love. So we'll talk to them when we come back.

It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. Good morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. We got some special guests in the building. We have Adjua and Styles P. Welcome, guys.

Hello, hello, hello. What up, what up, what up, what up? Good morning. This is your second time on here together. Mm-hmm. And this time, Adua, your book is finally ready, The Ethereal Hike. Yes. So explain to us, first of all, do you know what ethereal means, Envy?

Nope, but all I know is I read that book, and goodness gracious, that was a, they know I don't really read that much. Really? I don't have the time. No, I don't either. I have five kids. I don't either. I got so many businesses. But I started reading that book, and I don't really read that much because I don't have the time I had five kids I got so many businesses but I started reading

that book and I was like goodness gracious that's why I gave you a hug so long out there like I felt your pain really and you two

that's my problem so now that you've read it correct the title do you think it means what's the correlation between the two I honestly don't know

no really I just want to tell you not to talk about well we'll get into it longer but when you talked about everything that happened Do you think it means, what's the correlation between the two? I honestly don't know. No? Really? I just want to tell you, not to talk about, well, we'll get into it longer, but when you talked about everything that happened, and you talked about when the officers came to your door, and then you stopped, and then it went to somewhere else and broke down the whole, oh, man. Yeah. You had me.

I was at home, 2 in the morning, reading a book. My wife's like, come upstairs. Really? That's great. That's great. That's great. That's great. Well, it's basically a light. It means of light, heavenly,

spiritual word. So my daughter and I, we always went hiking. So I tried to make sure everything was embodied, be it the content, the title, the artwork. So basically,

I'm on a light hike to get to a spiritual, light, better, positive, better place as much as possible. So I've tried to use the pain in a positive way and basically just connect and heal with grace, so to speak. And also show the synchronizations in between just having to speak, you know, and also show the synchronizations in between just having time to, you know, there's a whirlwind of emotions you go through throughout the time.

So I'm able to connect the synchronizations. And now for people who don't know the story, because last time you guys were on here, we talked about it. And I know it was your first time publicly speaking on it, but your daughter passed away. Yes. And so you had been working on this kind of as a memoir or something for your daughter. Well, I mean, initially I wanted to honor her. I mean, that's obvious. But just I started writing.

And in writing, I showed, well, anyway, in writing, I just realized how, you know, our lives are parallel, you know. And also within that time that she passed, I've got I've had a lot of people that's divulged a lot of things to me. Right. And I've come to notice that we're all more similar than, you know, more alike than we are not alike. So just to highlight some things that show us being more common in the book. Now, the anniversary of her passing was like a week ago, I believe. No, that's January 25th.

Her birthday is January 6th. When it came out January 6th. And as a, you know, I have five kids. Yes. And that's one of my biggest fears. I know. Not knowing what's going on in your child's life. And there's no way of possibly understanding.

But that's my biggest fear as a parent that you don't know what's affecting them or your child's life. And there's no way of possibly understanding. But that's my biggest fear as a parent, that you don't know what's affecting them or how it's bothering them because they can come home and they're cool and this, that, and the other. But when they leave, you just don't know. I mean, you could just be the best person you can. You know what I mean?

Just try to be open, honest. Allow them to communicate. Allow them a space to communicate, allow them a space to communicate, non-judgmental, unconditional love. Once you demonstrate those things, I think that you'll, you know, you'll feel good about your parenting.

You'll see that. You'll see the reflection. With your son, anything differently? You know, do you do anything differently? Other, any different maneuver, any different conversations? No, exactly the same. I'm still the same. Still unconditional love,

a thousand percent support of fame. And that's interesting because if I felt like I needed to, I totally would alter. You know what I mean? But I'm still the same. And some things that you can't change is the circumstances. Like you can't

change what her biological father, the impact of her not having contact with that side of the family. You don't even know. And she probably would not have even known how much that does. Right. Exactly. Oh, I mean, like as adults, we don't really start to grasp or start to reflect until we get older for the most part.

So as being 20, she's just going through the motions, so to speak. You know what I'm saying? She's not really identifying with what's happening and why what's happening, so to speak. Well, she did have therapy for some, you know, but again, you're young. So if it's not a consistent and you're not totally invested,

you're not really getting, you know, what you need out of it. Why does she feel like you wanted to put her in therapy? Why does she feel like you needed therapy? Well, I mean, I went when I was younger. And I mean, she was acting out of it. Why does she feel like you wanted to put her in therapy? Why does she feel like you need therapy? Well, I mean, I went when I was younger. And, I mean, she was acting out in school. There were just typical hormonal things that, you know, I just felt like I didn't have the patience to deal with.

But I still wanted to allow her space to express herself. You know what I mean? And then I also know about the impact of her biological father in the absence of that. So there could be lingering feelings regarding that she just didn't feel comfortable with. You know what I mean? So I just wanted to make sure every rock was left unturned in terms of making sure she

was covered, you know, and supported. Now being raised as a kid, I mean, you guys were raised pretty much like we were all raised. You know, you're from Brooklyn. You raised yourself. Do you feel like we hold our kids, like we try to protect our kids too much? Yes. Like, think about it. Like, my son will never know what carnival in Brooklyn is and be out there with his friends.

He'll never do that. This is true. But the times have changed. So whereas we had more leniency and we were able to do things, it was still safer to a degree. You know what I mean? Or do we see it more because of these phones? Because they were still shooting, still stabbing. This is true.

People getting robbed. It was dead. But now you have to worry about kids hooking up on social media with random predators. Yeah, this is true. Right. And there's no way to be safe from that, really. Right.

Exactly. So, I mean, it's just a different day and age, so you have to be more. I mean, I would be, it's just that my son's a homebody, so I'm lucky. Right. So, but every time he goes out and like he drives or I'm like a nervous wreck you know what I mean and not so much because of him because he's super responsible

but everyone else right you know now Stiles you wrote the foreword to the book and obviously you guys have been together such a long time are there things that you didn't even know from reading this yeah her period like after i read the book i was like i don't even know you like i was like whoa right um he was serious too yeah serious i mean you know when you when we've been together almost 25 years so i know how intelligent she is and all of that but that was like real writer's work so as i was reading i was like nah this is real this is serious and i was like but you don't be looking up writing on how to write and none of that like where do you just remember so just to see that and for me you know i'm an artist so i look at the detail

of the story like as an artist so i was looking at the story knowing the story looking at the detail of it look how she put it together um it was very impressive to me to say the least and it um it brought me to a spot of just thinking about stuff in my life. And that's why I said that's what a good author does when you read the book and you start reflecting on where your life is going or things you happen. So she did marvelous work. All right, we have more with Styles P and his wife, Adjua Styles. When we come back, don't move.

It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. Good morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God. We are The Breakfast Club. We have Adjua and Styles P in the building. Yee? It was nice to hear about you guys' relationship, too, in the early days and what an influence you had.

Like, we ain't sitting on this stoop no more. I know. But, I mean, that's all fact. I was super, still am, super ghetto, super loud, super, like, so we both are very, two young adults making a way. Like, we got some money. We bought a condo. We like 22, 21 with a condo. We trying to be, like, live suburbia responsibility, but that childhood thing is still there.

So it's like you go back and forth with a lot. But the problem is the anger when we have a problem. She don't like me today. You don't have to communicate. No. You want to tell them why? She don't like me today, but that's love. Do you want to tell them why?

I love this. I love this conversation. Do you want to tell them why? I can't wait to share this story. I swear to God, I can't wait to share this story. This is like my wife right now. I cannot wait to share this story. No, okay.

No, I'm going to go in. So what happened is yesterday morning. Enjoy yourself. Yes, yesterday morning. We're I'm going to go in. So what happened is yesterday morning. Enjoy yourself. Yes, yesterday morning. We're still on it 24 hours later. I was making, I'm West Indian, obviously. It's in the book.

I was making porridge for myself. That's soup for all the white people out there, porridge. It's breakfast. It's porridge. It's hot cereal. So anyway, so as I was stirring it

and it was getting thick, I grabbed the kettle to add some water, you know, to thin it out. Brown liquid comes out. The full brown liquid. So now, my normal reaction maybe five years ago, what the f***?

What was it? So I was just like, okay, so what's going on here? So he comes out and goes, oh, oh s***, I was making tea. You know what I'm saying? You gotta stop cursing. Excuse me. Sorry. I was making oh, I was making tea. You know what I'm saying? I'm making tea. You got to stop cursing. Excuse me. Sorry.

I'm like that. I was making tea. I was making tea. And you neglected to tell me that you put it in the tea kettle. Who tells everybody that, Envy? Like, think about this. We live together. We live together.

No man's going to do that. Just making the tea. See what I'm saying? This is what I can't use. A tea kettle that everybody uses and expects water to be in there. I didn't know you put the teabag in the tea kettle. I thought you poured it out onto the teabag. Nah, but look what happened.

I ain't going to lie. I was hot. I was thirsty. Boom. I tried to take care of the whole family. You know what I mean? I was like, iced tea. I usually would have juice.

We just juiced all the fruits and veggies. We ran out of juice. Okay, but we can get to that later. What about the situation I'm in with the brown liquid? Because I made her tea. Tea for the household the night before. Who's going to go to anybody? In the house?

Let me communicate with the household that I put tea in the kettle. Who does that? But why would you leave it overnight? Because I meant to drink it late night. See that? I meant to drink it late night, and I didn't, but I made tea for everybody. As long as she tells me I'm good. So you messed up the porridge.

Totally. Breakfast is ruined. It's got all over. So what happened? When he came out? He laughed and made it. It was a laugh. Yes.

It was a laugh. Yes. It's not funny. It's not funny. It wasn't funny. You poured the tea in the porridge. I would have giggled that first two. It's not funny. It wasn't funny. You poured the tea in the pours. I had to giggle that first two. It was light.

I was, you know. You know what I mean? Since y'all talking about it. This could last in a marriage. This is what people don't understand. The regular listener out there doesn't kind of know. It's the small things. It's not even the big things.

It's the very small things that could go not even the big things. Very true. It's those very small things that could go for three days and two days and then you over the porridge, then something else happens, then the porridge thing is back. We got over the porridge. No, it led to something else. You know, but that's marriage. You know, I think we I think we've

back to, I think our passion is always, until you get older and understand your passion, it can lead either way. Right. Like, you know what I mean? It could kind of go left or it could kind of go right. And especially we come from, a lot of us come from broken homes or one-parent homes or a poor neighborhood. So you don't really get to see that many family structures or so-and-so.

Like, you know what I mean? So we're growing up like I often say like and it sounds funny but like growing up if I didn't make it a rap if I didn't make it a rap I always used to you know before we was years deep in a relationship I was like I would have never even got a lady like her all these other ladies so you when you're a young fella that's what's kind of on your mind. Because the guy who... But the thing about it is also when you have anger problems and they land you into enough bad situations,

then you start to reflect. It's just that simple. You know what I mean? So with both of us, we've had enough situations where we've had to be like, all right, we're good. We're so good here, but we're so bad here. And this is all based off of lack of communication and anger issues that we're both, you know, individually.

And the fact that, you know what it is too, in most relationships, I notice that people like to win. Yes. Instead of solve the... He's so competitive. I've never won. You can't even point to me if I've never won. That doesn't even make sense.

He's competitive overall. You see how she pointed fast? Ask her how many times have I won. I say the same thing. I always lose. What's losing to you? What's losing to you? I can explain for Ambie what losing is

for his wife. Sometimes you want to get your point across and it to be heard without drama or conflict and just to go, hey, this was just my point. Not that I'm trying to beat your point. Not that I'm trying to prove your point wrong. You know, women are. See, I'm a guy that would say women are smarter than men.

Absolutely. I have no problem admitting that. That's clear as day. But, you guys, the emotions, it makes the arguments irrational sometimes. You're right. I will say a lot of times I don't listen to the other point of view. Like, I have my point of view. See? And that's the thing.

Let me just get my point across. But I'm humble about it. And I'll tell him. That's looking funny. I'll say, you know what? I should have listened here. I apologize. There you go.

He'll never say it. That's true. He said halfway. He'll never give me. You were right. He about to choke. I'm not going to. That's true. He said halfway. He'll never give me, you were right. He about to choke. He'll always say you were right. Wow.

You guys are on marriage boot camp. Exactly. You guys are on marriage boot camp, so we're going to see some of this play out. Yes. O-M-G. How many times do you say he's right? Well, when he's right. When he's right.

Yeah. What is that? When he's right. Like, he's been wrong for the last, like, four times, so he's not right right now. He doesn't have a good's right. Yeah. What is that? When he's right. Like he's been wrong for the last like four times so he's not right right now. He doesn't have a good track record.

Yeah. So no. What made you guys decide to do marriage boot camp? Because I need therapy. Well I mean it's a

combination of things. I wish Dr. Ish could live with me. He's so good. Yeah. That's so real. He's so authentic. He's so genuine.

I really wish I could live with Dr. Ish Or I could see him once a week He likes him in his closet He's so great We think when people go on marriage boot camp We feel like their relationship is in danger What's happening

So what made you guys say this is what we're doing Well for us it was more strength Everything is strengthening at this point Every relationship is in danger When you don't continue to learn and grow. We don't, but you know what he made very clear to us, which we couldn't articulate, but I think we understood it, was that we're on our third marriage.

First marriage was our marriage. Our second marriage was when he stepped out of the marriage. Our third marriage was when we lost our child. So we're on our third marriage. So forget about the other two marriages and realize we're in a new clean slate. What we need to focus on is not where we were. You understand? We have a whole new game plan.

Being the present. Yeah. So with that clarity, you know, bringing that concept, you know, so. People expect to really see. It just snapped. It just clicked. People really expect to really see it just snapped, it just clicked. People really expect to see the best out of relationships all the time, like, you know what I mean? And out of people.

Somebody, I guess, said to us, to me, rather, the other day, you guys portray to have the perfect relationship. I said, I've never even heard of that. A relationship really takes a lot of lot of lot of work. That's what people don't really say, especially, I'm pretty sure for

women it's probably easier for y'all because y'all are smarter. No, I'm just saying. You know what I mean? For a man to work himself up to be emotionally vulnerable, balanced, try to figure out things, communicate, that's not really my cup of tea. Right. Like, you know what I mean?

That makes it harder for us. Yeah, that makes it hard to describe some days that that's not really my cup of tea. Right. Like, you know what I mean? It's hard to describe. But that makes it harder for us to have to. Yeah, that makes it hard to describe some days that that's not what I'm really, that's not my thing, but I'm going to do it and willing to do it for the thing, which is probably most guys in general, at least. It's the truth. No, you play. I just need somebody to co-sign and say it when I'm not around. Don't mess up your credit co-signing this.

No, it's the truth. Right, right, Envy. You got to learn, though. No, it's the truth. You got to learn. You got to learn, though. No, it's the truth. You got to learn. You spent all these years in this industry being tough and being this, and then when you go back home, you think you're that person. But when you realize it's not doing anything for your relationship.

Yeah. You got to do the work. You got to do the work. But we appreciate you for joining us. Thank you so much. The Ethel Real Hike. And the book is available. And we also have the book club happening at Juices for Life in Brooklyn at 277 Malcolm X Boulevard in Brooklyn.

Thanks for having us. Thank you for having us. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. This is The Rumor Report with Angela Yee. Rumor has it. On The Breakfast Club. So listen up.

Well, it looks like rappers Pop Smoke and Casanova are going in on each other. Now, Casanova had posted on social media, nobody runs New York, it's too much outside, and we're so front like one, and we're has those power to control the whole bitty. Most of these and we're screaming, they outside is another word for vagina. And then he also wants people to stop using his phrase, we outside.

He said that is his phrase, because y'all not outside, we know who's outside. Who said that? Casanova? This is Casanova speaking. All right, now Pop Smoke then went to the Gram and he put up a new song. And his song is this. And then he said, Y'all old N-Words better pack it up. This ain't no Trashanova-ish, no Scary L-ish. Y'all know the woos run the city. Y'all N-Words could never be me. So I don't know why they're beefing with each other.

But Meek Mill then commented, And then somebody said to Meek Mills, same with y'all, Philly and words. He said, who am I to talk right? I beef with every rapper in my city before except a few. He said, facts though, let me mind minds. I'm from Philly. I try to be Meek Luther King some days. Yeah, but the beautiful thing about Meek, man, Meek was pretty established when he was beefing with a lot of those guys from Philly.

Like I think that Pop Smoke and Casanova still got a lot of work to do. You know what I mean? As far as establishing themselves. I mean, they both on their way. So when I see things like that, I say to myself, like, damn, two black men from Brooklyn, they should be coming together. Because collectively, they can definitely do more

than beefing with each other. I mean, I would hope so. And the fact that, you know, it can get sticky. I mean, Pop Smoke runs with a lot of dudes. Casanova runs with a lot of dudes. So I'd hope somebody would step in, maybe Steven Victor or somebody in between them That's cool with all of them

Bleak, they might have to make the OG call a bleak Just to make sure things are okay We don't need a situation where the clubs are shut down They don't want to let certain people in They both have big records that rock off in the club So I hope they squash this Yeah, come on Brooklyn You know we be in these Brooklyn streets

We want to see a lot of positivity, peace We don't want to feel like anything could happen And we want all y'all in the building every time something happens in New York. And I could be missing something, but I don't even see when this is over. Well, we might just not know. Yeah. It might be something that happened. Might be some Brooklyn-ish. We don't even know about.

And that's why, you know, I don't care about being outside. I'm being honest with you. I like being inside. And that sounds stupid to me. I have a beautiful house, you know what I'm saying? I have friends and family that have beautiful houses. And when we are outside.... I have a beautiful house. You know what I'm saying? I have friends and family that have beautiful houses. And when we are outside. We're in our backyards. In our backyards.

In front of the fire pit making s'mores. Well, I feel like I'm outside. I always do try to go out and support whenever I can for different artists and different people doing things. So I do want to be able to feel like it's cool to go out and show support. So I want to feel safe to do that. All right. Just don't go to Casanova or I want to feel safe to do that. All right. Just don't go to Casanova or Pop Smoke Convention. You'll be fine.

All right. Now, Blac Chyna is denying the claims that Rob Kardashian has made that she's a bad parent. And he said that she's drunk all day. She's abusing drugs. She's chasing people with knives, making violent threats, teaching their daughter Dream different sexual positions. And she's denying all of those things. She said she's never done drugs in front of her kids. She only drinks on occasion when her kids are not around,

and that Dream is always clean and has great hygiene and has more than 100 nice outfits at home. So that's her defense. All right, congratulations to Cardi B. Invasion of Privacy is the longest-charting debut album from a female rapper ever. Bardi! Congrats. That's right. So congratulations to her.

She's passed the miseducation of Lauryn Hill, which is 92 weeks. And ESPN, here's another groundbreaking deal. They're offering Tony Romo a deal that would make him the highest paid sportscaster in TV history. He deserves it.

So they're trying to get him to get away from CBS, and that's why they're offering between $10 and $14 million annually for him to join the ESPN team. Wow. The problem that bothers me about Tony Romo, because I'm a lifelong Dallas Cowboys fan, is when I watch him call these games on CBS, he knows exactly what's about to happen.

Why didn't you know that on the field? Okay? It might be a little different when you see it from a different angle and a different view. But you're not in it. about to happen. Why didn't you know that on the field? Okay? When you were seeing from a different angle and a different view. But you're not in it. I'm just like, he's calling plays that the team is going to run. He's calling when defenses get sacked

with interceptions. Why didn't you know this when you were on the field, Tony? Maybe he was on the above-match team. What team was yours? He couldn't see it from that view. Stephen A. Smith, who was one of the most popular sports talk personalities, has announced on Twitter he is going to still be contributing a lot and there'll be a first take presence, but this will be my last week officially hosting

the Stephen A. Smith Show on ESPN Radio. Some come holler at me all week long. 1 to 3 p.m., we start roaring in less than 10 minutes. So that was his last post for his last run of shows for his radio show. Basically, ESPN's paying him $8 million a year.

We want you on TV more than we want you on that goddamn radio. They don't want to oversaturate and feel like you can get them anywhere. You got to come to the first take.

That's right. All right. Well, I'm Angela Yee and that is your Rumor Report. I also want to say, too, I'm in a movie with Pop Smoke. It's actually a pretty significant film.

Okay. That'll be out pretty significant film. Okay. That'll be out later this year. We didn't do no scenes together, but I know he's one of the stars of the movie. Okay. Yeah. All right.

You know what I'm saying? That's what I do That's what my passion is You know what I'm saying? That's what the whole focus is Some people be thinking Things that, like they say, you and Meg Thee Stallion, when y'all dated, that you actually were in a long-term relationship

that whole time, and that whole thing was just for the tabloids. Nah, it's cap. I've been new, shout out to, like, 2017. I've been going through Houston, getting money, you know what I'm saying? Shout out to T-Fair, 1501, all of them. You know what I'm saying?

I've been coming through here, so we've been off and on, you know what I'm saying? Texas, we just came to a point to where, like, we're like, alright, we're gonna go and do this. We're gonna go and lock in for sure, you know what I'm saying? And then the time situation, like, with us being together and Huggs doing shows and getting

money and me doing shows and getting money, that's the whole reason why I bought the dog for. You know what I'm saying? So I feel like it's always a part of me right there. You feel what I'm saying? You bought the what? The dog for. You know what I'm saying? That's better than having a baby. Yeah. You know what I'm saying? Back in the day, a man would have just took the condom off, shot the club up.

Well, yeah, so they gonna take it and do whatever they want to with it, but it's love, though, for sure. Like, shout out to her. I'm proud of her. You know what I'm saying? Now they on your ass. Now I see something that they allegedly with Ari now. Is that true? Yeah, yeah.

Yes. No. No. You said yes to Ari. Yeah, you said yes. I'm an old ass. I'm an old ass. Sure.

Okay. Now on the song Federal Fed, you said as soon as she met me, requested a rollie. Yeah. How often do you come across women who as soon as they meet you, they want song Federal Fed, you said, as soon as she met me, requested a rollie. Yeah. How often do you come across women who, as soon as they meet you, they want you to trick off? See, it happened a lot, but then you didn't see what I made, like a tweet.

I see the tweet. I made a tweet about this situation. It was about a bag, you know what I'm saying? But they can fall in that situation, too, with a watch. It's just like, why are you asking for material stuff when you can ask for some money? Hey, put this in my business. Yeah.

What you gonna put in the purse? Yeah. You know what I'm saying? I remember I saw that tweet. You said like, why a girl want a purse but she don't have $100,000 to put in it?

Now, the problem I had is $100,000 is a lot. Yeah, exactly. Most of them have $100,000. I'm just saying. That's a lot. That's a huge number. To just throw out there.

And they go back to show like, you need to be thinking bigger. What you just said, like, there's too much for certain people. They need to be thinking like that. They need to be thinking big. You need to be thinking like, I need to go do this and invest. Like me right now, I'm doing real estate. I'm through buying jewelry right now. Mm-hmm.

Please. You have enough. I'm through. I'm through buying jewelry. I told you to leave it. Let me change you guys on right now. One have enough. I'm a dude. I think you dropped one. I told you to leave it. How many chains you got on right now? One, two. It's probably like, I don't know this chain right here, but I still want 50. Jesus Christ.

My earring is 150. You got a million chains, three rings. No, no, but I'm slowing down for sure. I'm trying to get it. How many cars you got? Black Young, you told me you got a load of cars. Yeah, I got about five, six cars. How many daughters do you have?

You got three girls. You can put out a son. You can't. But you got to think about it like, you know what I'm saying? I feel like God blessed me, put me in this beautiful situation. You know what I'm saying? Because all my baby mamas took care of. You know what I'm saying?

All the kids want to have no problems, I ain't on no child support. Everything just float. Everything good. Are the moms all good with each other? They all do it like Diddy. Like Christmas Day. They're cool. They're cool.

How many baby mamas you got? Everybody cool. Both? Yeah. Now, you know, people always talk. You can't name the dog four when you got four baby mamas. Boy, you a player. I'm telling you.

F***, boy. Jesus Christ. People always talk about signing to an artist. They say, never sign to an artist. But I noticed with Gotti, black youngsters straight and you're straight. So how was it signing to an artist and how does he help with your business? When I first was going to do the deal with Gotti, like, everybody from Memphis was like, nah, don't do it, don't do it, don't do this.

Ain't gonna sign to a rapper, do this and that. But I was looking at it like he was already telling me, like, bro, like I just told y'all at the beginning of the interview, like, it's on you what you do. Because they were like, look at this situation he had. Look at this situation he had. You might be like this. I'm like, nah, because I know what my head is. I know my hustle.

I know my goals. So, they ain't got it. Like, he's small. Like, he's super small. you know what I'm saying? He leave it up to you. But he going to tell you, I'll do this, boom, boom, boom. But it's your career. You can go this way if you want to.

But I think the best way is over here. You know what I'm saying? So it's just all love. It's everybody, it's just family. And I think Gotti understand business. And Gotti not tripping off still wanting to be the man. You know what I'm saying? Yeah, exactly.

He want other artists to pop up. Exactly, most definitely. Now, somebody told me you was big on fitness. Yeah, yeah. That's what I'm doing. Getting myself together right now. Word? Is that like a New Year's resolution?

No, I've been doing it. As soon as I had got out the tool, Wiz. I actually was doing it on tool, Wiz. Wiz brings all his equipment on the road with him. Oh, yeah. He ready at all times. He ready. You know what I'm saying?

And then I just took it, like, way more serious. I don't like feeling, like, sluggish downstage. Because I was on drink real bad. That lean? Yeah, on lean real bad. Keep off of it now? Yeah, he's gone. What made you quit?

How did you quit that cold turkey? Because, like, I was just saying, like, when I'm on stage, performance, like, you can't hardly breathe. Like, it was too much. Did you go to rehab or something? You just know I'm just like like I said like I'm Muslim so I'm disciplined anyway You know I said so I could just easily I could stop like I'm strong man. I know you was Muslim. Yeah I'm like, oh, yeah, so what you pray for time today and everything. Yeah, yeah, I just pray before I come up here. Wow, that's interesting. Who got you into Islam?

It's just like, it's the right way. It's the right way. I ain't going to tell nobody else whatever they believe in. You know what I'm saying? I'm against it, but I just feel how I feel. You think the lifestyle of hip-hop contradicts Islam? You say you heard me talk about it, talking about songs and stuff? No, no, I'm saying, yeah, I'm saying, like, and they say the lifestyle contradicts.

The lifestyle of hip-hop can contradict the lifestyle of Islam. You think so? Uh, not really. You know what I'm saying? You just got to be on point. Like, I know people like Kevin Gates. You know what I'm saying? There's always discipline.

We talk all the time. You know what I'm saying? We go back and forth. We converse about the situation. And, you know, it is what it is. That's good to have that connection to a higher power, though. Exactly. Most definitely. All right, well, shout out to Moneybagg Yo for joining us's good to have that connection to a higher power, though. Exactly, most definitely.
