I figured it out.
Voice of reason.
The solid, hold it down.
The beige rage.
And the agitator.
And the agitator.
The breakfast club. Everyone just kept telling me to prep for this. One word to beige rage and the agitator. The Breakfast Club.
Everyone just kept telling me to prep for this.
One word to describe the Breakfast Club would be clap.
Impacting the culture.
People watch the Breakfast Club for like news and really be tuned in, man.
I don't even know what to call the Breakfast Club.
It's like brunch.
Envy, Yee, and Charlamagne.
Wake that ass up, get out of bed, and listen to The Breakfast Club.
I'm waking up.
Good morning, USA! Yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo.
Hey, fam.
What's up, Charlamagne?
Happy Super Bowl Monday.
Good morning, Angela Yee.
Peace to the planet.
It's Monday.
What's happening?
What's happening?
I know you were up watching the Super Bowl.
I was watching the Super Bowl yesterday.
Thoroughly enjoyed it.
You know, I just like watching greatness, man.
Tom Brady got to be the greatest white man that ever lived.
He got to be on the Mount Rushmore.
And I ain't talking about the Mount Rushmore of sports.
I'm talking about Mount Rushmore, period.
Let's put him up there with the founding fathers.
Name a better white man.
Who?
I don't know.
You can't even name a better white man than Tom Brady.
He's got to be the greatest white man that ever lived.
I just respect greatness. I can't even name a better white man than Tom Brady. He's got to be the greatest white man to ever live, man. I just respect greatness.
I like seeing greatness in action.
And for him to have won seven Super Bowls, been to the Super Bowl ten times at 43 years old
after leaving the team that he played for for, what, 20 years, I think it was?
Maybe more than 20?
And then go to another team and win another Super Bowl a year after leaving?
Drop on a clothesline for Tom Brady.
I mean, that's just... I mean,
Jesus, that's...
And he's not retiring.
He'll be back next year.
Actually, I said Jesus. That might be
the only other greater
white man, white Jesus, okay? Even though
we know Jesus is black, but white Jesus, in theory,
is probably the only white man better
than Tom Brady ever in the history of life.
Yeah, and I mean, that's legendary because he's playing for Tampa Bay.
The actual Super Bowl was in Tampa.
When has that ever happened?
I'm telling you.
It's the first time a team won a Super Bowl in their home stadium.
That's never happened before.
And another reason I want to salute the Tampa Bay Buccaneers
is because they have one of the most diverse coaching staff.
Probably the most, no, yeah, without a one of the most diverse coaching staff. Probably the most. No.
Yeah.
Without a doubt.
The most diverse coaching staff in the NFL.
They got four black coordinators.
The offensive coordinator, the black defensive coordinator,
and they got two women coaches.
So, you know, drop one of those balls.
And so, wasn't it the first time they ever had a woman referee at the game, too?
Yes.
Yesterday.
Yep.
All kinds of firsts.
Hey, man. You know, it's sad that we live in that country Yesterday. Yep. All kinds of firsts.
Hey, man.
You know, it's sad that we live in that country where we still having these kind of firsts,
but whatever.
But I salute the Tampa Bay
and everybody out in Tampa Bay.
I know a lot of cocaine was snorted last night.
Right?
Mm-hmm.
I don't know what goes on.
I do know this, though.
Another shout out to everybody
who won big on some bets
that they placed on the Super Bowl.
I know a lot of people was betting money on the game.
So there were some winners and some losers today.
So I know some of y'all will call in this morning.
Yeah, I would like to know if y'all won some big money.
What was the line?
Was it that was Kansas City predicted to win by that much?
I don't know.
I don't know what the line on the game was.
And then drama.
They had all kinds of things.
They had that rocket mortgage Super Bowl squares thing.
Two people were winning like $50,000 throughout the game,
and two people won $500,000.
Wow.
And Ramos is such a fake Tampa Bay Buccaneers fan.
He's been screaming about being a Bucs fan all year long,
but he ain't here with a Bulls hat on this morning.
I'm moving.
All my stuff is in storage.
All my clothing is in storage.
You knew the Super Bowl was like yesterday.
I messed up, but yes, when I was packing.
I know.
I bet you Will Packer got on all his Tampa Bay
Buccaneers stuff today because he's a real fan.
He's not moving. Oh, man. Did you see the guy
that they were making fun of that had on a fake
Bulls jersey at the game? I did.
That was wrong. I didn't like that.
That was so mean. I felt so bad.
But the Bulls did send him some
gear after that. That was so mean.
I didn't like that. I'm not going to lie.
You don't know what that man can afford. That might have been the best he can afford. You know what I mean? I didn't like that. I didn't like that. I'm not going to lie. You don't know what that man can afford. That might have been the best
he can afford. You know what I mean? I didn't like that.
I didn't like that. But let's get this show
started. I don't think we got any guests
this morning, but we got front page news up next, right?
Well, no. Actually, we have
Get It Off Your Chest. Oh, no. We do have front page news
and then Get It Off Your Chest. I don't know. Envy's not here.
Okay. We'll figure it out. What's going on? It's Monday.
It's the Breakfast Club.
Hey, hey, hey. It's the world's most dangerous morning show, the Breakfast Club.
Charlamagne Tha God, Angela Yee, DJ Envy.
I guess he's still in Tampa.
He was at the Super Bowl yesterday from what I saw on the ground.
Yes, he was at the game.
He did a billion parties, too, while he was out there.
Well, he needed to quarantine for 20 days then.
He's been doing a billion parties in Florida.
All right, it's time for front page news.
What we got, Yee?
Well, let's talk about the Super Bowl first,
and let's talk about some performances that happened before Tampa Bay won.
Now, one person who performed that everybody was going crazy over
was her, who did America the Beautiful.
And found I could with brotherhood Brotherhood From sea
To shining sea Sounds good.
Yeah, I missed that.
Sounds good to me.
I missed her.
I missed her and Jasmine Sullivan.
We're going to get to that.
Alicia Keys also did a prerecorded version of Lift Every Voice and Sing that was actually originally aired last September.
And then Jasmine Sullivan. It was a duo aired last September. And then Jasmine Sullivan.
It was a duo, actually. She
wasn't by herself. They said this is the first time there's
been a duo that did
the national anthem since Aretha Franklin and
Aaron Neville did it back in 2006.
So she was paired up with Eric Church.
And here's what that sounded like.
Oh, the land
of the free
and the home of the brave. That's good.
They need to have duos sing the national anthem from now on
because it's definitely two Americas, okay?
So one of the words in the anthem applies to one person,
but it doesn't apply to the other.
Guess what race it is!
Now, Eric Church had said he was reluctant
to sing the national anthem at all
until Jasmine Sullivan signed on.
And then when she signed on,
he said he was all for it.
For what?
Jasmine Sullivan watched him.
Yeah, he said that.
Well, because he said he doesn't consider himself
to be a vocalist.
He considers himself more of a stylist.
But when she signed on,
he felt like, okay,
she's one of the best singers I've ever heard.
And so he wanted to be there.
That's a fact.
So it wasn't a duet then.
He was a background singer, basically.
It was a duo.
Okay.
All right.
Now let's talk about Super Bowl commercials,
because of course that's what we all watch for as well, right?
We care about what these commercials are like.
And one commercial people were talking about was the State Farm commercial
because Drake was starring in it as Drake from State Farm.
Look, guys, I don't even have a stand-in. Of course you do. Hold on. Is that Drake? That's right as Drake from State Farm. Look, guys, I don't even have a stand-in.
Of course you do.
Hold on. Is that Drake?
That's right. Drake from State Farm.
Like a good neighbor.
Like a good neighbor.
Stand-ins don't have lines.
Oh, okay.
Like a good neighbor, State Farm is there.
I love the fact that they reinforced the stereotype
that all beige brothers look alike,
because that is very true
I couldn't tell the difference
I didn't even realize that was Drake
until somebody said it to me in the group chat
I'm lying
yeah you knew that was Drake
why you always hitting on Drake?
I'm not
we know we actually
you didn't do anything
the State Farm commercial
we immediately started counting Drake's pockets
like yo and how much Drake got paid for that
we was in the group chat
a lot
yeah at least a couple of M's. Easily.
Easily.
All right.
And I also want to tell you guys that Google has launched a new feature that will make it easier to find and support Black-owned businesses.
So in honor of the start of Black History Month, they announced they're launching a new shopping feature that will help you find and purchase products from Black-owned businesses a lot easier. They said that black owned businesses, a search has increased by 600% and
people are looking for recommendations for everything
from restaurants to bookstores, beauty products
and more. Okay.
Thank you, Google.
All right. Well, that
is your front page news. That's right. And listen,

Hey, I just wanted to tell you about last week.
You shouldn't feel bad about your penis size.
Okay.
Well, thank you.
I appreciate that.
And then she laughed at you.
I appreciate that.
Thank you very much. Hey, remember the episode of Girlfriends when he was talking about Big Willie?
Yeah, Big Willie.
When he was overly endowed.
Lynn said,
just because a man got an AK-47
don't mean he know how to use it.
That's a fact.
You ain't got to tell me.
Why are you trying to make him feel better about it?
Well, I appreciate you.
I just felt bad about it last week.

Thank you very much.
Yes.
If you like Rhapsody, you would love me.
They call me Reezy Peace.
Can I finish my bars for you real quick?
Now, Rhapsody is very, very special.
For you to compare yourself to Rhapsody,
that means that you really got something.
So let me hear a little something.
Okay, okay.
Well, unlike her, I'm a little more ignorant.
Okay. All right, yo, I'm a little more ignorant. Okay.
All right, yo, this is Keith for the game.
And, yo, it's all about who you ride for.
It's all about who you fly for when I know.
Don't ever walk around blind for.
Like a sleeping woman's game when the game's mine for.
People pout for you.
Can't count it down.
Leaves you out and no one out in town.
Walking the right mile, really want to count.
When I get the mic in the
crowd or around? You best hold me if we
gonna say something delicious.
Rhapsody will be okay.
I better take a seat
and we get on the money.
What the crowd really wanna hear is real shit.
Alright, alright, alright.
Excuse me, I'm tapping you on the shoulder right now. Hey, could you stop?
Listen, you're no
Rhapsody, okay? And I probably gotta hear you on the shoulder right now. Hey, could you stop? Listen, you're no Rhapsody, okay?
And I probably got to hear you on an instrumental or something,
because honestly, that just didn't sound appealing to my ears just now.
It just didn't.
Oh, I'm sorry.
Yeah, it just sounded kind of crazy, because you was like going up and down.
The rap phone, the high phone, the slide phone.
Yeah, yeah.
It probably would have sounded better on the beat.
Yeah, yeah.
You're not on Tidal.
You must be Tidal.
There you go. I'm sure you hear something a little more interesting. What's your name on the beat. Yeah, yeah. You're not on title. You must be title. There you go.
I'm going to tell you something a little more interesting.
What's your name on title?
Reezy Peace.
R-E-E-Z-Y.
Two words.
P-A-C-E.
Okay.
All right, Reezy Peace.
Who cares what these little penis guys think anyway, right?
I know.
Right, right.
Yeah, I got an average penis.
Called Still Reezy.
Thank you, Still Reezy.
We appreciate you.
Get it off your chest.
Who's this?
Hey, what's going on, Charlamagne?
This is DJ, calling from North Carolina.
DJ from North Carolina.
What part of North Carolina, brother?
Raleigh.
Raleigh.
I love Raleigh.
I used to be in Raleigh a lot.
Sleutham, I do a big text.
He's on the supper club out there.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
But I got a question.
Yes, sir.
I have a 20-year-old daughter.
Every time, like for the last couple of times I've went to her car, it's full of, it smells just like weed. And I'm asking her like, yo, are you smoking weed? And she's like, no, she's a type two diabetic. Like, and I know what weed smells like. Like I can open up the trunk and and it was like something. It just was stinking. So how do you get through to the millennium kids now?
I mean, how do you get them to understand that, you know, it's not cool?
Well, I don't have a 20-year-old.
My oldest is 12.
But, you know, one thing that we think about our parents when growing up,
our parents didn't ask us questions.
They already knew.
You know she's smoking weed.
So stop asking her and tell her that she needs to cut asking her and tell her why did you bring up the why'd you bring up the diabetes is something wrong
if you smoke marijuana and you have diabetes that's not i don't know because like last night
like this is this is why i'm irritated is because her levels were so high last night and it's been
high all night long and so my wife has to take off work with her to take her to the doctor today.
So what you're doing is affecting, not only is this affecting your health,
but it's also affecting my household.
Like if my wife has got to take off and go with you to the doctor because of
the choice that you're making to not do the right thing because of your health,
then we have an issue.
You know, it's going to be strange. It's going to be strange, though? It's going to be strange
to tell kids, you know, that
marijuana is not good now because, I mean,
marijuana is legalized damn near across
the country, whether recreational or for
medicinal purposes.
Yeah, and it does have a lot of benefits. Yeah, it's going to
be hard to have that conversation. You know, back
in the day, people could tell, weed messes up your brain
and yada, yada, yada, but now you know that's not
really the case, so I don't know, brother.
I really don't know what to tell you other than to tell her, man, she got to be careful.
You say y'all live in North Carolina.
Marijuana ain't legal in North Carolina.
So she can still catch a case.
No, it's not.
Yeah.
And she works for a pharmacy.
Like, if something was to happen, she loses her job.
She works for a pharmacy.
Well, that's the conversation you got to have with her.
You got to tell her the consequences of her actions.
You got to let her know why
she shouldn't be smoking marijuana
at this point in her life. Tell her that.
Let her know all the consequences she's faced.
I appreciate it. Hey, I'm gonna tell you what else
would hurt my heart, too, if you find out she's just smoking weed
in the car to cover up the smell of sex.
Man, yo.
I mean, she's 20.
She's 20. I'm sure she's, you know, she's
an adult. That don't mean nothing. It don't, because you still live in my household. I still pay she's 20. She's 20. I'm sure she's, you know, she's an adult. That don't mean nothing.
It don't because you still live in my household.
I still pay the car tax.
That's right.
And you heard daddy.
You don't want to think about her having sex?
No.
Like, I would say.
Well, sir, how old were you when you lost your virginity?
19.
There you go.
That's your story?
I respect it.
Hey, I'm praying for you, my brother.
The only thing you can do with your daughter is be honest with her, man.
Tell her your concerns, man.
That's all.
Tell her your concerns and tell her what the consequences of her actions could lead to.
That's it, brother.
10-4.
Appreciate it.
All right, King.
Peace.
Lord have mercy, boy.
I'm telling you, man. Raising daughters is...
I know I was in hand phone. saw chloe bailey's video i
said to myself i got three daughters that's all i said to myself over and over when i saw that
video i got three daughters we got a rumor report coming you yes and we'll talk about sierra what
she had to say about her husband russell wilson winning the nfl man of the year honor and we'll
talk more about the super bowl how much do you think it costs for the weekend's halftime show we'll give you those numbers all right let's talk about it it's the
world's most dangerous morning show the breakfast club the breakfast club
listen up it's just in holocaust the rumor report
it's the rumoror Report. The Breakfast Club.
All right.
Well, let's start off with Amanda Gorman and her Super Bowl poem.
She's the first poet to ever perform for the Super Bowl.
We all know her from Inauguration Day.
And she was the youngest to be a youth laureate poet.
So she performed, and it was called Chorus of the Captains.
And she was playing that ahead of the Three Heroes introduction on the field.
So these honorary captains include educator Tremaine Davis, ICU nurse manager Susie Dorner and veteran James Martin.
Here is that poem.
Let us walk with these warriors, charge on with these champions and carry forth the call of our captains. We celebrate them by acting with courage and compassion,
by doing what is right and just.
For while we honor them today, it is they who every day honor us.
Her price really went up, huh?
I love to see people make the most of their moments.
She definitely is making the most of hers.
And she's only 22 years old, by the way.
Hmm.
All right.
Now, other things that happen.
Let's talk about the commercials.
Cardi B was in a commercial.
She was with Mike Myers and Dana Carvey from Wayne's World,
the characters from Wayne's World.
It was an Uber Eats commercial.
And here's how it happened.
We'd never shamelessly rely on a celebrity cameo.
Right, Cardi B?
Yeah, eat local.
Or jump on the latest trend.
Eat local.
Local.
Local.
Local.
Local.
Local eats.
Wings whirl.
Yuppie time.
Excellent.
I can't wait to see Cardi B flourish in Hollywood.
That's what she's going to really shine.
Music is just the rung on the ladder of her success.
TV and movies are where she's going to really prosper, and I can't wait to see it.
They said she was lovely and so funny and so beautiful and came to play.
I loved working with her.
That's according to Mike Myers from Wayne's World.
Yeah, she seems like she'd be a lot of fun to work with.
Like, you know, sometimes you have be a lot of fun to work with.
Like, you know, sometimes you have choices on who you want to work with.
Sometimes you don't.
But it's nice when somebody can be really fun and friendly while you got to do what you got to do. I'm shocked they got Mike Myers to work.
Mike Myers, that's a...
Who played Shrek?
Yeah.
That's Mike Myers, right?
Mike Myers.
Yeah, he don't be having to work because of Shrek.
Because, you know, he makes so much money off the Merchandise and toys and all of that stuff
Like that
But people really enjoy doing these Super Bowl commercials too I think
If you have the opportunity
Now the weekend how much did his
Halftime performance cost
Well the way it works the NFL does not
Pay you for the halftime show but they do help
Cover production costs and
According to
Reports because those production costs They have about $10 million that they give you.
He had to add an additional $7 million into the performance.
So you can estimate that cost about $17 million for him to do the Super Bowl halftime show.
$17 million?
Mm-hmm.
Jesus Christ.
$17 million?
See, I'm listening to the room in here
Behind the scenes at the breakfast club
Y'all didn't love the weekend's performance did ya
Average
Yeah I didn't think it was
I mean it wasn't like exciting
I thought it was cool
I mean it felt good to see all those folks on the field wearing masks
You haven't seen that in Florida at all during the pandemic
When's the last time you seen a bunch of people in masks in Florida like that
That was good
But 17 million
And you know he didn't have any special guests or anything. Sometimes
we look forward to that too. Like who he's going to
bring out. What did y'all expect from the
weekend though? I don't know. He's not
like, yeah, I mean,
you know, I'm not like a huge weekend
person. I know it's not a popular thing to say
so I wasn't like, I can't wait to
see the weekend perform. It's better than Shakira's
performance. You better watch it. That is a fact.
That's not a fact.
It depends.
I mean, excitement level wise, I don't know.
All right.
Now let's talk about the mayor in Florida, since you're talking about masks.
The mayor was calling out 50 Cent for having a maskless Super Bowl party.
Oh, shut up.
He said, this isn't how we should be celebrating the Super Bowl.
It's not safe or smart.
It's stupid.
Shut up.
And they said they're going to take a close look at this
and it may end up costing someone a lot more than 50 cents.
Nobody in Florida can chastise anybody for not wearing masks,
especially a local official.
Mayor of what city?
This was in St. Petersburg.
I don't know.
I got to see the restrictions in St. Petersburg.
But it looks like Florida is very, very loose.
So how are you going to hold one person accountable for having a massless
party?
All I saw was a bunch of massless stuff in Florida all weekend long from
Tampa.
That's where everybody was at, right?
In Tampa.
In St.
Petersburg and Tampa?
I don't know.
We don't know.
But the mayor is Rick Christman.
And I will say this.
A lot of locals were upset at him from putting out that statement because they're like, yeah, you encourage people to come here for the Super Bowl.
You wanted people to come.
And what did you think was going to happen?
People haven't been wearing masks in general and you haven't enforced that.
So you kind of set the stage.
Yeah, you're standing on some really shaky moral ground right now.
The point to figure out 50 cent in this party.
Florida is very well. Tampa was very good. That point to think you have 50 cent in this party. Florida's very loose.
Tampa was very loose this weekend.
That is your rumor report.
I'm Angela Yee.
Yeah, so we got front page news coming up.
Yee, what we got?
Yes, and let's talk about these inmates that took over a section of a St. Louis jail.
Jesus Christ.
It's the Breakfast Club.
Yes, it's the world's most dangerous morning show, the Breakfast Club.
Charlemagne Tha God, Angela Yee, DJ Envy is off
because he went to the Super Bowl yesterday, so
he has to quarantine for the next 25 days.
For two weeks. I say 25.
I say at least a whole month. Yeah, because look, he was at
a lot of parties. He was at that 50 Cent
party that the mayor was talking about with no masks.
Exactly. And then he was at the Super Bowl.
That was not no socially distanced Super Bowl.
I saw people right behind him and right in front of him.
He got to quarantine for
25 days and take every test,
including the anal swab. The anal swab
is the one they say is the most
prolific.
Prolific? Accurate.
There you go. That's the word I meant to use.
I couldn't think of the word. It's Monday.
Prolific anal.
You got front page news, G. What we got?
Well, House Democrat leaders are going to unveil legislation today that would give millions of families at least three thousand dollars per child and that's
part of joe biden's 1.9 trillion dollar covid 19 relief package so could be some relief coming soon
now the legislation would give 3600 dollars per child under the age of six and three thousand
dollars per child age six through 17 for a single year. That benefit is available to single parents who
make up to $75,000 annually and for couples earning up to 150,000. And then those payments
would phase out after those thresholds. So if I got five kids between the ages of six and 17,
I get three grand a kid. Yeah. If you make less than 75 than 75 000 that's a lot of people that's actually a
pretty good deal yeah and it's a one-time thing but yes right now i'm sure everybody can use it
so you used to borrow kids for your taxes i wonder if you can borrow kids for this like
people that got like 10 kids is there a cap on it because they phase out i don't know it doesn't say
anything about a cap but yeah that makes sense it they phase out. I don't know. It doesn't say anything about a cap. But yeah, that makes sense. It should phase out.
I need to borrow some kids.
Well, you have to make less than $75,000.
All right.
Now, 117 inmates took over a section of a jail in downtown St. Louis.
So the incident started because one inmate got into a fight with the CO and other prisoners then jumped in.
They said more than 100 inmates took over.
It started at 2.30 a.m. Saturday.
They said the inmate was very, very upset,
got into a fight with the CO,
and then the officer was jumped by other inmates in the unit.
So during the fight, they said some of the detainees
were able to jimmy the locks on their cells,
open them, and get into the unit.
Jail employees were then trying to get
the corrections officer to safety.
That's when the inmates accessed a lock panel system, and everybody else was released from their cells into the unit.
COs don't carry guns?
I guess not, huh?
That could be dangerous too, though.
Imagine you have a gun and then they get a hold of that.
Well, they can't get a hold of it if you start clapping as soon as they walk through the door.
Right, so they said there were chairs and other items scattered across the street
because they started throwing items out of broken windows.
And they also started small fires inside of the jail.
So they have not identified the injured corrections officer yet,
but they said he's in the hospital and expected to recover.
Yeah, boredom definitely set in for those inmates
because it's just like taking over the jail for what?
What are you doing with that?
Well, they said that jail is understaffed.
And the issue with the cell locks is something they've been trying to fix since December.
That seems like a big issue.
If they can jimmy the locks that easily, that's something you should have fixed immediately.
That's the whole point of jail.
That's why they say we lock you up and throw away the key.
The whole point of jail is that the locks should work.
The one thing that should work in a jail is the locks.
We know we had some issues for the past couple of months.
We were getting to it.
All right.
And the woman who went viral for using Gorilla Glue in her hair is now getting treatment at a hospital.
She's from Louisiana.
Tessica Brown is her name.
Now, she posted a few days ago that her hair was stuck in place for a month after she ran out of her usual hair product.
And she decided to use this Gorilla Glue and it didn't move.
She said her hair wasn't moving
and you can see she had to seek medical treatment
after trying to get some solutions.
And the makers of Gorilla Glue even responded,
you know, you're not supposed to put that in your hair.
I thought all of that stuff wears off
after a certain time though.
Gorilla Glue?
It don't?
No, I don't think so.
That's the good stuff.
Yeah, that's like an extra strong glue.
You use that to like glue something permanently.
So what are they going to do with her?
Are they going to just shave her hair off or what are they going to do?
I saw a lot of people talking about potential solutions like using acetone to break up the molecules.
And they were talking about using, you know, that stuff you use to get stuff off your car, the goo.
What is it called?
Goo gun?
It's like a yeah something
like that they were talking about a possible solution so i'm not sure what they're doing but
she's had that in her hair she said she washed her hair 15 times her hair still wasn't moving
it's been a month and her hair is still super in place well god bless her man i mean what she she
she definitely made a a permanent decision based off of a temporary feeling, right?
Because she just wanted that hair to be in place for whatever that moment was.
Now she's stuck with it.
Well, she didn't mean to use Gorilla Glue.
She actually ran out of hairspray.
And they have this stuff called Gorilla Snot that's a gel.
So she thought it was the Gorilla Snot, and it kind of looks similar to the Gorilla Glue.
And so she thought she was using that gel in her hair, but she ended up using this gorilla glue. And that was a tragic mistake.
It's not a bad hairstyle to live the rest of your life with, right, though?
It was simple, right?
I can't imagine that you can, though, because think what happens when your hair starts growing out in the front.
And then, you know, there's probably it could be like mold under it.
I don't know if you ever seen people that had to weave in too long and it gets moldy underneath.
Anything could happen. So she does
have to handle that.
Well, I wish her the best.
Me too, man. I'm really praying for her because that's
awful. Why do these hair care products sound
so disgusting though? Like gorilla snot?
Why would you want to put
gorilla snot in your hair?
I don't know. It works though.
Alright, well that is your
rumor report. I mean front page news.
You know uh we were
sitting around i was sitting around this morning and i was saying that tom brady is the greatest
white man to ever live you know what i mean and nobody in the room can seem to dispute me on that
you can't name a better white man than tom brady well are you talking about as an athlete or as a
person i don't know him as a person i just know that tom brady that's why it's hard to say
at what he does if you're saying he's the greatest athlete at what he does, right.
First of all, we act like white men have such a great track record in this country.
It doesn't matter.
Who cares?
He's the greatest white man to ever live.
The only white man people will point to and say they're better is the founding fathers.
But keep in mind, the founding fathers were slave owners who didn't believe black people were even all humans.
So who's a better white man than Tom Brady?
I want to hear from white people this morning.
Maybe I'm not up on my white history knowledge
the way I need to be.
Because Tom Brady is the greatest white man that ever lived.
Who do you think?
You got anybody?
I mean, I'm not understanding this category.
Is it like, because there's people who do philanthropy
who I might say, okay, this person's donated
hundreds of millions of dollars.
They don't got seven Super Bowl rings, though.
So that's what's important.
So we're talking about...
Alright, well, you guys
call us up. I'm going to think about it.
I just want to hear from y'all. Who do y'all think the greatest white man to ever live is?
Because I can't name nobody better than Tom Brady.
If you can, I'd love to hear from you.

call 800-585-1051 to join into the discussion with the breakfast club
let's talk about it yep it's the world's most dangerous morning show the breakfast club
charlemagne the god angela yee dj envy is not here because he uh went to the super bowl yesterday
he went to tampa bay to watch the greatest white man to ever live tom brady win another super bowl
and i said logan looked like he was scared to sit next to Envy.
Why?
After Envy was DJing at all those parties.
Oh, that is true.
At least Logan is young, so he got a strong immune system.
But you know how people talk about Bill Russell winning 11 rings in the NBA?
And it seems unbelievable because we didn't witness it.
That's how we're going to sound in future generations when we discuss Tom Brady winning seven rings in the NFL.
Because of the degree of difficulty of football, going to ten Super Bowls is unbelievable.
Winning seven sounds like something that doesn't even come out of a person's mouth.
Like, Tom Brady has more Super Bowl rings than teams.
Like, I think the other teams are, let me see, the Patriots have won six rings,
Steelers have won six,
Cowboys have won five,
49ers have won five.
Tom Brady has more Super Bowls
than all of those franchises.
That's how unreal this statistic is.
But that stat and that stat alone,
he's got to be the greatest white man to ever live.
You can't name a better white man.
Angelique, would you like to try?
I mean, this is hard for me
because we're just talking about football here, right? What else do we need? Or sports. What else is like to try? I mean, this is hard for me because we're just talking about football here, right?
What else do we need?
What else is there to discuss?
I mean, philanthropy, people who donated money.
All of that is great.
That's a big deal.
All of that is great.
But anybody with money can do that.
I think that's what makes you great when you actually make a lot of money and you actually
do good for other people.
No, what makes you great, that makes you people that. No, what makes you great?
That makes you great too.
But what also makes you great when you do things that nobody else has ever
done ever in the history of life and probably will never do again.
That's what Tom Brady has accomplished with these seven Superbowl rings.
I don't know a better white man.
Dramos,
do you know any better white men than Tom Brady?
I mean,
I'm going to go Tom Brady,
but I'm,
I'm,
I got two that I think I could challenge you with.
Who?
Abraham Lincoln.
No.
I'm going to throw that out there.
No.
And Phil Jackson is my other one.
Oh, please.
So we're only talking about sports here.
Abraham Lincoln didn't play ball.
By the way, all three of those people you just named
are great because of black people.
Phil Jackson's great because of black people.
Abraham Lincoln's great because of black people.
And Tom Brady is great because of black people. But he's still the of black people. And Tom Brady is great because of black people.
But he's still the greatest white man to ever live because he makes people around him better.
Let's go to the phones.
Hello.
Who's this?
Hey, what's going on, Charlamagne?
It's your boy Todd Matthews from Lansing, Michigan, a.k.a. Tuck.
I didn't hear nothing you said after Todd Matthews, but good morning, Todd.
He's somebody, though.
He's somebody.
What's going on, man?
They call me Tuck.
I'm from Lansing, though. He's somebody. What's going on, man? They call me Tug. I'm from Lansing, Michigan.
I'm out here in ground zero of all the COVID, square one business and stuff.
Okay.
Well, tell me, is Tom Brady the greatest white man to ever live?
I have a different person I want to bring up. And it's still in sports, but it's in a different version of sports.
Okay.
And I really want to say this because like he's like just retired recently too and he's had such an amazing
career and he's done so many like hey man get to it the suspense is killing me come on get to it
the suspense is killing me who the undertaker the undertaker oh stop okay i can see that stop
i'm serious that's like theaker's huge, great theme song
You gotta look at like literally
His history and stuff
You are right, nobody
Nobody done that Super Bowl thing
He does got them 10 rings
I'm amazed by that
Did you say 7?
Yeah, 7 rings, 10 Super Bowl appearances, 7 rings
I swear you said 10 earlier on the radio
10 Super Bowls I think 7. Ten Super Bowls and I think
seven rings. I don't know. Oh, ten Super
Bowls. That's right. Ten Super Bowls. That's right.
Okay. Yep. I'm wrong. The fact
that you had to find a dead white man
to try to dispute me proves my
point that Tom Brady is the greatest white man
to ever live, mind you. I say
it ever lives. I was just thinking of
his, you know, through his career,
what he's, like, you know, went through and the struggles he he's like, you know, went through and like the struggles he went through.
And also at the same time, like all the good things, like he's like been like king of the ring more than anybody.
Yeah. He's got a really good background with like, you know, endorsements and good place, good crowds.
And, you know, he's never been I'm going to say this right now. He's not like Vince.
He's not like Vince.
Hey, I'm going to tell you something.
The bar is very low for white men, baby,
when the best you can pick is the undertaker
to go against Tom Brady.
Let's go to the phones.
Good morning.
Yes, it's Kevin.
Kevin, what's happening, my brother?
Is Tom Brady the greatest white man to ever live?
No, man.
Christopher Columbus.
Christopher Columbus?
What?
That rapist.
I didn't... That bigot. That Columbus? What? That rapist. I didn't.
That bigot.
That colonizer.
Oh, my gosh.
Christopher Columbus.
I would have loved to hear what else he had to say to back that up.
Why'd you hang up on him, Dramos?
I want to hear more.
I want to support that.
What else do we need to hear?
The bar is very low for white men, baby.
This is why Tom Brady's the greatest white man to ever live.
Okay, so far we got Christopher Columbus and
The Undertaker. Alright?
Call us right now. 1-800-585-1051.
It's Tom Brady, the greatest white
man to ever live. If you can name a better
white man, let us know. It to the Breakfast Club top
Come on
800-585-1051
Yeah, it's the world's most dangerous morning show
The Breakfast Club
Charlemagne Tha God
Angela Yee
DJ Envy is off
Because he went to Tampa
To go to the Super Bowl
To watch the greatest white man to ever live
Now, I say Tom Brady is the greatest white man to ever live
I don't think people can name
a better white man. So far, the only people
that we've heard is The Undertaker
from WWF,
WWE, and Christopher Columbus,
a racist, rapist, robber, and
genocidal maniac. Okay?
What about Warren Buffett? He don't got
seven rings, bro.
He donated almost $40 billion.
That's cool, but he don't got seven rings. His car is whack, bro. He donated almost $40 billion. That's cool.
He don't got seven rings.
His car is whack, too.
His car that he drives is whack.
He still drives a beater.
And I'm sure Warren Buffett
worships at the altar of Tom Brady.
I mean, worships.
Probably got a picture of Tom Brady
in his house next to white Jesus.
I'm sure he does.
Let's go to the phones.
Good morning.
Who's this?
Good morning.
It's Anton from the 305.
Anton from the 305.
M-I-A-O.
What's happening?
Who's a greater white man than Tom Brady?
I have to go with Peyton Manning, man.
Stop it.
Ha!
Stop it.
That's disrespectful.
Yeah, I don't know about that one.
Peyton Manning didn't have all the robberies that Tom Brady had.
So he...
The defense feared Peyton Manning.
Tom Brady has played with two great wide receivers period, Peyton Manning. Tom Brady has played
with two great wide receivers
in his life.
This is the best time,
this receiver core
he had this year in Tampa
is the best receiver core
he's ever played with.
Prior to that,
he had Gronk and Randy Moss.
Can't deny that.
Yes,
you can't even mention,
don't even mention
any other quarterback
with Tom Brady.
That's disrespectful.
So you're backing down
off of Peyton Manning already.
No,
I'm still going Peyton Manning.
Well, you're wrong. We're all allowed to be wrong.
Good morning. Good morning.
Hi, it's the world's most dangerous morning show, The Breakfast Club.
Shalameen the God, Angel E, DJ Envy
is off today. Who are you, sir? What's your name?
Oh my God, my name is Sean. I can't believe
I'm talking to you guys. Sean, you're clearly white.
Yes, sir. So you have a
lot of experience and expertise
in this question I'm about to ask
you. Is Tom Brady the greatest white man to ever live? Hell no, man. Hell no. Abraham Lincoln is
the greatest white man to ever live. Why? And I know that y'all was going to go to the founding
fathers. I knew that. I said that earlier. Why Abraham Lincoln? Because he did so much for
everybody, man. He woke the world up. He got everybody aware of what was going on.
He changed the world.
Tom Brady's the change of football, man.
You know, I mean, I think
Frederick Douglass should get more credit than
Abraham Lincoln because Frederick Douglass was
the person in Abraham Lincoln's ear all of those
years. You know what I mean? So I can't
really give Abraham Lincoln all of that credit.
You said white guy, man.
And it's rumored that Abraham Lincoln all of that credit. You said white guy, man. And it's rumored that Abraham Lincoln
might have been black.
I don't know. I knew that y'all was going to go
to the founding fathers. I actually think they should put Tom
Brady on Mount Rushmore with those
founding fathers, to be honest with you.
For sure, man.
If it's got to be somebody today,
I'm going to say Adam Sandler.
Man, shut up. You know what?
The bar for white men is so low.
All y'all do is sports and entertainment and be colonizers.
Just think about that.
Every white person that they've called up here to dispute Tom Brady
has been a colonizer like Christopher Columbus, a sports figure,
Peyton Manning in The Undertaker.
And who else was it?
Warren Buffett.
Come on. Comeett. Come on.
Come on.
Come on.
We'll go take another call.
Good morning.
Good morning.
Who is this?
My name is Al from Dunmore, New Jersey.
Hey, Al.
Are you white?
Yes, sir.
Okay.
I respect your opinion on this.
Is Tom Brady the greatest white man to ever live?
No.
The greatest white person to ever live is going to be Keanu Reeves, sir.
Keanu Reeves?
Okay.
I do like Keanu Reeves. I think I like that.
Yes, Keanu Reeves is amazing.
I think I would...
I'm going to be out of a job.
Keanu's top five.
He's top five because The Devil's Advocate
is one of my favorite movies ever, and the first
Matrix is one of my favorite movies.
All the money he made from the Matrix comes back
to the people who have worked for the film.
He has helped out his family.
I'm telling you, philanthropy matters so much.
Well, I'm going to be honest with you.
I don't think you could be the greatest.
Philanthropy to me.
I don't think you could be one of the greatest.
You've seen him on the subway.
The man doesn't take his fancy cars to go everywhere.
He lives like a normal person.
Got you. And people always talk about the great run-ins they've had with
Keanu Reeves, just random run-ins and
how cool he is. So I can see that.
He's a touched soul among men.
Alright, listen. I got Keanu in my top
five. Right now it's Tom Brady, Keanu
Reeves, The Undertaker, Christopher Columbus
and Abe Lincoln, according to White America.
What about Jim Carrey? Oh, Jim
Carrey's up there. Jim Carrey's up there. Jim Carrey
might be top five white men of all time, too.
You want to take one more call? That's it.
Let me go to acting. So listen, does it matter
that Tom Brady is a Trump supporter? Is he still a Trump supporter?
Is that put a blemish
or an asterisk? Not to me.
It's just politics. I don't care. Like in America,
white men? Come on.
Not to me. We're talking about the founding fathers.
I care about philanthropy more than just. I care about philanthropy more than just
I care about philanthropy more than rings.
Listen, if you're going to compare
Tom Brady to the founding fathers, him
being a Trump supporter sounds right on brand
to me. That's it.
It doesn't sound very progressive.
Okay, so right now, our top
five, based off the white people that we polled
this morning, the top five white men
of all time, Tom Brady, Keanu Reeves,
The Undertaker, Christopher Columbus,
and Abe Lincoln.
No, not Christopher Columbus.
That's according to white people.
I'm going to put Keanu Reeves above Tom Brady.
No way.
No way.
All right.
We got a rumor report coming?
Yes, and Angela Bassett talks about
the most difficult role she's ever had to done
in her career.
And guess what that is?
Can't wait to hear.
I think I know what it is.
It's the world's most dangerous morning show, The Breakfast Club.
This is The Rumor Report with Angela Yee.
Rumor has it.
On The Breakfast Club.
Listen up.
All right.
Well, Cardi B has had to talk about these allegations that she plagiarized her new single Up.
And there's two other rappers who came forward saying that they had that song first,
Mayor Fontaine and Mayor Pesos.
Now, I first want to preface it by saying I thought if it's up, then it's stuck was like a common phrase.
So I don't know that she's ever heard this
song but we'll tell you what happened anyway here is cardi b
now they posted to cardi b we want my money Then it's stuck. Yeah. Then it's stuck. Then it's stuck. Hey.
Now, they posted to Cardi B, we want my money.
And Cardi B said. We want my money.
And Cardi B said, nah, I'm the type of person that avoids problems and court days.
If I get inspired by a song, I wouldn't mind giving a percentage or a couple of thousand.
But I never heard of this man.
I'm glad while I was recording this song in Augustust i was playing with the hook on this live and she then posted an instagram live video that she previewed the
song up back on august 7th thank you thank you and thank you to you too
i mean listen no ideas original nothing new under the. This is kind of what happens when you make records out of, you know,
common phrases or whatever the latest slang is.
Right.
I saw like two other people say that they did an up in its duck song this
weekend.
Yeah.
It just shows you how popular it is.
Right.
Yeah.
And then they also posted a screenshot that shows that their video
premiered on August 6th, even though YouTube has it at September 15th.
But I doubt that she could have done that in one night
and saw their post and then the next day previewed her song
that she was doing the very next day.
I don't know.
By the way, both those songs could exist, though.
We're not going to sit here and act like there wasn't two
whoomp-dare-it-is's at one point.
I was just thinking about that.
It was whoop and whoop.
There it is.
Oh, it was whoop and whoop?
Wasn't it? I don't know. I thought woot and whoop. There it is. Oh, it was woot and whoop? Wasn't it?
I don't know.
I thought it was all whoop.
Whoop.
This is an aunt and uncle conversation, by the way.
It was tag team, right?
Tag team and 95.
I was about to say 85 soft boys.
95 soft boys.
Yeah, so let me see.
Was it woot and whoop?
But yeah, so those things do tend to happen.
But yes. All right. Now, Angela Bassett, she was talking about what the toughest role she's ever had to play is and she said tina turner and what's love got to do with this this was on people every
day she said definitely nothing has been as difficult as tina turner nothing as difficult
physically emotionally spiritually vocally nothing absolutely nothing she should have won an oscar for
that role
she absolutely positively got robbed i don't think there's ever been a greater robbery uh at the
academy tina turner i mean angela bassett should have absolutely positively won an oscar for uh
tina turner what's love got to do with it well she did win a golden globe for best actress
motion picture musical or comedy in 1994 and she also won an na NAACP Image Award for Outstanding Actress in a
Motion Picture. Well, they got it right.
Oscars got it all the way wrong.
Now, she did add that her children
have not seen the movie, but really
enjoyed her latest movie, Soul. She said
let them discover it. Let their friends discover it.
Maybe then I get some more respect around
here. Drop on the clues, Bob.
Angela Bassett. That is a queen.
Boy, when we talk about queens, Lord have mercyett that is a queen boy when we talk about queens lord have
mercy that is a queen let me tell you something to that to this day there's not a lot of movies
that stand the test of time like what's love got to do with it did but that movie to this day you
could watch it and it feels current oh it's a classic yeah i mean when you when you think
yeah when you think of like biopics and you think of like how you would want to be immortalized in a movie, it's only a few people who've gotten it really, really right.
Like Ray got it right, of course. Ray Charles and What's Love got to do with it.
I think I would put Malcolm X in that category, too. Denzel Washington.
Right. Well, and if you haven't seen the play Tina on Broadway, whenever Broadway comes back, that was an amazing play, too.
So just shout out to Tina Turner. I love some Tina Turner. I read her autobiography and everything.
All right. Now, Morgan Wallen, he's a country singer and his sales increased after he got some backlash for saying the N word.
TMZ actually got some footage of him. He appears to be drunk.
He's telling one of his friends to help somebody else in the group. And you can hear him on the video footage.
So you can hear him using the N word.
Yeah. So let me explain what happened. He did issue an apology after that video leaked. He
said, I'm embarrassed and sorry. I use an unacceptable and inappropriate racial slur that I wish I could take back. There are no excuses to use this type of language ever. I want to longer eligible for consideration of any awards at the Country Music Awards this year.
But his fans have made his sales increase.
His sales have increased 1,220% this week.
Also, streaming.
His streaming numbers have increased, they said, by something crazy like 511% or something like that.
Well, listen, the word nigga sells records okay i guarantee the
only other word that is sold as much as uh as much as nigga is is love and maybe sex records that
have love and sex in them but the word the n-word in any context sells a lot of records imagine if
they pulled songs from our playlist for use of the word and of the n-word please don't well bmi did
ask gospel singer bb wyans to reach out to morgan and help him um
become more exclusive more inclusive and empathetic person and bb wyans uh statement was i ain't got
no time for that nigga that's what he said he don't got time to be talking to that man
why bb why i think he's like a i think he's like a spokesperson or something like that so
that's why they yeah they
didn't just randomly say i'm gonna tell you exactly what his title is i read that and i was
like why bb wine is i know he's a god-fearing man but why bb like this is why randomly bb wine is
go talk to this person yeah i think he has some type of role or something like that but i don't
know if he said that he's going to talk to him or not but you know by the way he's there he's a diversity advisor for bmi if i have to explain to a white
person why they shouldn't use the n-word like yeah like where have you been come on man like
come on he knows he shouldn't be using that word that's why you've never heard him use it publicly
you know what i mean like that that that recorded. I'm sure he's used it
behind the scenes plenty of times, but he's never done it publicly
because he's smart enough to know he's not supposed to.
That's a waste of a phone call, BB.
BB got other things to do.
Alright, now Ciara says she is proud to call
Russell Wilson her husband because he
did win the NFL Man of the Year
honor, and here's what his speech
sounded like. Dad, I wish you were here to see my kids.
I wish you were here to see my wife and the woman Ciara is, and you're here to see me hold up a Lombardi trophy, but also And here's what award, this moment.
Dad, I can remember you telling me in the car one day,
son, love changes things.
Well, Dad, you were right.
I wish you were here to tell the world that in the toughest of times.
Man, dropping the clues bombs for Russell Wilson.
That's a good guy.
Now, Sierra posted,
you're the most selfless, loving, and caring person I know.
Your heart, dedication, and commitment to taking care of others is truly what sets you apart.
It's one of the most beautiful and attractive things about you.
I'm so proud of you and to be a part of your great mission to impact others.
Proud to call you my husband.
Proud of the father you are to our children.
Proud of the man you are to our family.
I love you so much.
Congrats on the Walter Payton Man of the Year Award, babe.
You really are that man.
All right.
It's a beautiful thing.
All right.
Well, I'm Angela Yee,
and that's your rumor report.
Now, Charlamagne, coming up,
you are giving your donkey to somebody
who's getting that donkey of the day.
You know, I hate to give donkey of the day
to another dead person,
but if I don't give donkey of the day
to dead people,
then how will we live?
You know what I mean?
Sometimes you got to call out the dead in order for other people to live.
And this is a teachable moment.
So we'll talk about it for after the hour.
Okay.
Don't give the day next to the breakfast club.
You don't get a date.
You don't ask.
You get don't get a date.
You don't ask.
You are a donkey.
It's time for Donkey of the Day.
Donkey of the Day, huh?
I'm going to fatten all that shit around your eyes.
They want this man to throw them blows, man.
They wait for Charlamagne to tap them gloves.
Let's go.
They had to make a judgment of who was going to be on the Donkey of the Day.
They chose you.
It's a breakfast club, bitches.
Who's Donkey of the Day today?
Yes, Donkey of the Day for Tuesday, February 8th goes to a 20-year-old man named Timothy Wilkes.
Now, on Friday, I had to give Donk here today to three dead people.
Okay, James and Lisa Goy and James Spade, respectfully.
I used it as a teachable moment to just say that, hey, you have to be kind to everyone you meet because people are fighting hard battles that you know nothing about.
Stop pushing people because you don't know what can make a person snap well today's donkey today
is also a teachable moment because timothy wilkes is dead okay he's no longer with us in this
dimension and the reason i have to give donkey today to dead people sometimes is because it
will help others to live see timothy is dead dead, ladies and gentlemen. Shot and killed in a Nashville parking lot Friday night.
Why did he get shot and killed?
Let's go to WSMV NBC4 for the report, please.
No charges have been filed yet following a deadly shooting
that police say stemmed from a prank.
Police say Timothy Wilkes and a friend were participating
in a prank robbery for a YouTube video.
Well, investigators say when the pair approached a group of people with butcher knives,
David Starnes says he was unaware of the prank and he shot Wilkes in self-defense of himself and others.
Timothy Wilkes is dead because of YouTube.
Because of a YouTube robbery prank gone wrong.
I haven't heard about this one. I haven't heard about this challenge or whatever this is.
But I do know, Timothy, in this climate, when we know people are starving, hungry, ribs touching, folks is really out here sticking people up.
Folks is breaking into Chanel stores in broad daylight. You know, talk about not reading a room.
How could robbery ever be a prank when folks is out here unemployed waiting on stimulus checks?
Y'all may not realize this, but people are fully aware folks are starving and folks are hurting and everyone is trying to protect whatever it is they have.
Not to mention in this era of vanilla ISIS and our cracker, a young white boy roll up on me with a weapon threatening to harm me.
I shall defend myself. I really, really, really, really, really feel sorry for this generation.
This generation is technologically advanced, but this generation lacks good old fashioned
common sense.
Because growing up in the environment I grew up in, I knew not to play like this.
Y'all know where I'm from.
I tell you 10 times a week.
Monk's Corner, South Carolina, the 843.
Drop on the clues, moms, for the 843.
Okay?
More importantly than that, it's the country.
And in the country, in those backwoods, what do old people say?
My nerves are bad.
I can't be playing with people like that when their nerves are bad, when they always on edge.
Okay?
But this don't have anything to do with the people getting pranked.
This has to do with the prankster.
Kids, listen to me.
I don't know what this robbery prank is, but I know this ain't going to end well for a bunch of y'all.
All right. Knives or weapons. You approach me with a butcher knife.
I'm not sitting around to let you get your little joke off.
OK. And this brother, David Starnes Jr., he's the shooter.
He better not get a day in jail for this because he reacted the way majority of gun owners in America would react if they were in this same situation.
It pains me that kids are
dying over YouTube views. Like, can you imagine being Timothy Wilkes in the afterlife this morning?
You sitting around in the waiting room with an afterlife, waiting to have your meeting with God.
And you got a bunch of people in there talking about how they died. You know, some died from
COVID folks in there talking about dying from cancer, car accidents, you know, the usual.
And here goes young Timothy. When they ask him how he got here he has to explain that he got killed over a
youtube robbery prank not to mention there's probably people in that afterlife waiting room
who actually really got killed because a robbery's gone wrong either got robbed and killed during the
robbery or committing a robbery and got killed and they all wish they could take that moment back.
Meanwhile, Timothy, you playing.
But guess what?
You playing, but the world around you isn't.
Next time any of you kids want to do something for likes, retweets, reposts, whatever,
just ask yourself, is this worth my life?
It's really a simple question to answer.
I know some of y'all think the internet and social media is your life,
but are you really ready to die for it?
If so, carry on.
If not, sit your dumb ass down and stop playing before you get your stupid ass killed.
Please give Timothy Wilkes the biggest e-haw.
Those two words don't even sound right together.
Robbery.
Prank.
Yeah, not a good idea.
Especially with guns illegal and legally you own a gun and somebody comes up to you and you're protecting yourself.
I mean, how do you even pretend to rob somebody and think that's going to go?
OK, where's the joke in it?
Where is it?
That's what I want to know.
Somebody got to explain.
Nothing funny about that.
That somebody should have been like, that is too dangerous.
My condolences to his family. Yes.
But that was definitely something
gone wrong. Definitely condolences to his
family, but Jesus Christ, man.
Why is this considered a prank?
And somebody please inform me of
what the joke is, because I don't get it.
And anybody that's doing these pranks for YouTube
that's listening right now, do
not do anything that could put you in any
type of danger or get
you killed because you see what just happened here so please uh take that from this that is
the moral of the story that's the moral of the story now when we come back uh we get to talk
to a few of my favorite people man from the big facts podcast we got baby jade big banks and dj
scream okay if you listen to the big facts like I do, then you've heard them interview everybody
from T.I. to Mike Will to 21 Savage
to a host of other people.
But we'll be talking to them when we come back.
It's The Breakfast Club.

Bullets. We need help!

I thought you about to tell me you done, you

but I'm getting my situation or something.
Situation.
You sound like a n***a.
Jay sound like a n***a
talking about situation.
What if your situation don't get you something
because it's just a situation?
We're going to have to have a conversation about that.
Yeah.
Conversation about the situation.
All right.
We'll be back with more of the Big Facts Podcast.
Baby J, Big Banks, and DJ Scream when we come back.
It's the world's most dangerous morning show, The Breakfast Club.
Why do you think there hasn't been more Big Facts Podcast out of Atlanta?
And what I mean by that is
atlanta has been the mecca and hip-hop for so long but sometimes it feels like the media there
doesn't reflect that why do you think that is it's just somebody had to just break the ice it's coming
it's a lot of you know i'm saying like my dude uh pie and uh poly they just started um
og talk you know i'm saying it's a couple dudes they coming trust me somebody you know what I'm saying? It's a couple dudes. They coming, trust me.
You know, you got to break the ice. Somebody had to break the ice.
I see y'all put out that kite to try to get
Jay-Z on. Has he responded, or
is there any communication about that yet?
Nah, Ruggs hit me and said he's going to get us
some Ace of Spades
down, though.
They say Jay-Z on a bunker
somewhere, man. He ain't doing no interview.
Nah, he ain't doing no interview.
I'm sure he watches, though.
He may not acknowledge a lot, but he's aware of everything.
I'm sure he watches.
Because y'all have some great conversations.
Appreciate that, my brother.
I really like the one with 21.
Because it just feels like them guys get up there with y'all, man.
And it's like they let their guard down in a different way.
Yeah, that's my brother.
So you know how they go like,
Ah, s***.
We get them in there,
we get the smoke.
You know what I'm saying?
I go to blow on that smoke
and they fade,
they get that contact.
It's up.
Absolutely.
And Scream,
you got a foundation too, right?
The Scream Foundation.
Didn't you just launch that?
Yeah, we're part of
the Scream Foundation.
I've been doing a lot
of community stuff,
but we finally just put
an actual name on it.
So we're looking forward
to just hitting the ground running
and just rocking with the kids, the youth,
you know what I'm saying, saving some of these people
from becoming delinquent water
boys before they become
delinquent water boys.
So that's just something that, that's where my
heart is, man. We got to do it for the youth, you know what I mean?
That's what motivated me the most.
If y'all had to explain to people what is
the purpose of the Big Facts Podcast,
what would y'all say?
Man, to give a voice to people that don't have a voice, man, to give a different opinion, to have the uncomfortable conversations.
You know, a lot of people don't want to have the uncomfortable conversations. Let's talk about the Grammys and how we've been at a little bit of cultural odds with the Grammys.
We want to see little certain people get nominated for them Grammys.
You know what I'm saying? Let's talk about about this vaccine let's have a real conversation about it you know i'm saying let's talk about
anxiety mental health uh financial literacy what goes on in the street snitch and let's talk about
it you know i'm saying i think that's like you always kind of say charlamagne like you can only
you can heal after you talk about it so a lot of people hit us and say man big facts like our
weekly therapy for real for real now i asked y'all taking the vaccine? I heard you mention the vaccine.
Y'all taking the vaccine?
No.
I do encourage everybody else
to take it, so I don't have to take it.
That's what I've been on. Big Bang, you taking the vaccine?
Yeah, but they work
the kinks and shit out that shit.
You gotta see what it do first.
Yeah, I'm taking it after, too. He takes it.
You gonna take it after? Now, I'm taking it after, too. He takes it. You're going to take it after me?
I'm going to give it time to see, you know what I'm saying, if it works.
You know what I'm saying?
Because I think I'm immune to it.
Me, too.
Are you immune to COVID?
Yeah, I ain't had it.
On paper.
Maybe you did have it, and you didn't know if you didn't get tested. I ain't had it. On paper. Maybe you did have it and you didn't know
if you didn't get tested.
I ain't never going down that. Why?
I'm saying why get tested when they can't do
shit for you? I don't get it.
So you don't spread it to other people.
Exactly.
Your elders.
You don't give it to your elders.
I don't go around my elders.
Okay.
Being real. I don't go around nobody. So you. I'm being real. I don't go around nobody.
So you're social distancing?
Huh?
You're social distancing?
Yeah, I'm social distancing, man.
Jay, you're close to hell, too.
Get your mask on, man.
Nah, but I believe it's real, but you know what I'm saying?
I feel like it is what it is.
God damn, man.
And you done came too far to be YOLO now, now.
It is what it is.
What you going to do?
You going to worry about COVID all day?
Not all day, but, you know, I mean, of course,
you know people that have gotten it, right?
No, these folks ain't getting tested, dog.
I got in with a mask and all that shit.
I wore my mask.
I think you can't dodge it if you're going to get it. You can't
dodge it. You had symptoms and everything scream
like you was asymptomatic. I was
down for a week. Damn.
Now, let me ask you this. A lot of people
are moving to Atlanta, right? Especially
now. I see everybody like, I'm moving to Atlanta.
I'm going to get a house in Atlanta. I can't
take it anymore. What do y'all think about all these
people moving out there?
Yeah, I welcome the transition can't take it anymore what do y'all think about all these people moving out there we full yeah i
i i welcome the transition and all of that but it's just been proven in the last like year or so
that like a lot of people that aren't from here are like it up for the people that are from
like they almost shut down cheetah because some out-of-town
got into a shootout.
That's the safest,
most secure place
that we can go to chill.
And correct me if I'm wrong,
isn't most of ATL transplants, though?
What's that?
Like, out-of-town
is for people from out-of-town.
Oh, yeah.
Nah, yeah.
In up north,
but you go south, east, and west,
that's Atlanta.
Yeah.
You know what I'm saying?
Everything up towards Buckhead and all that, that's why all the break-ins and shootings, east, and west, that's Atlanta. You know what I'm saying? Everything up towards Buckhead
and all that, that's why all the break-ins
and shootings in the mall and shit.
The hood mall is more safe than Buckhead
now. I mean, that makes sense, though. If I was a Jack
boy, that's where I would go to rob. I would go to
the rich people. You know what I mean? I wouldn't go rob
in the hood. But that's what, like,
it's two different Atlantas. Just put it like
that. Now, who are the next
hottest artists coming out of Atlanta, man?
Lil' One DTE.
Problem Child.
What's his name? Lil' One DTE?

All right.
It's the Big Fact Podcast.
Baby J, Big Bank, DJ Scream.
Thank you, man.
Peace.
The Breakfast Club.
It's about time.
What's going on?
Rumor Report.
Rumor Report. This is the Rumor Report. Rumor Report.
This is the Rumor Report.
Talk to them.
With Angela Yee on The Breakfast Club.
Man, so Kevin Durant won't be able to play with the Brooklyn Nets for the next three games.
During the game on Friday night against Toronto, he was pulled from the starting lineup and then later removed after he was put back in during the third quarter.
They said he came in contact with someone on Friday who had an inconclusive COVID-19
test before the game started.
Then he was allowed to return to the game.
He went on to play for 19 minutes, but then they pulled him back out again.
They said that person did test positive for COVID-19.
They said he was not wearing a mask in the car with the person at least three times earlier
in the day.
So he tweeted out, free me.
What's the point of pulling him in the third quarter i mean he might as well let him finish the game at that point right
yeah and he did uh respond after the nba put out their statement he said yo at nba your fans aren't
dumb you can't fool him with your whack-ass pr tactics well i can understand why he's frustrated
uh but you can't be mad at the nba in situation like that. You got to be mad at the Trump administration for their slow response
to COVID because of that, all of our lives have been disrupted. I mean, NBA is just following a
proper COVID protocol. And speaking of the NBA, Carmelo is agreeing with LeBron about the all-star
gaming, saying that he does not think that it's right. We told you before that LeBron said,
I'll be there physically, but not mentally. And he didn't think it was a good idea. He said, coming into the season,
you know, we were told we were not having an all-star game. So we'd have a nice little break.
And then they throw an all-star game on us like this and just breaks that all the way up. So
pretty much kind of a slap in the face. And we're also still dealing with a pandemic. Well, Carmelo
also said, I don't think it's right. I don't think we need it right now. It'd be good to recognize
those who got chosen to be an all-star. I think they deserve that recognition,
but I just think that it's a little bit too much in a short period of time.
If they feel like it's the right thing to do,
then it's the right thing to do.
They know best, not me.
Well, listen, if the players don't want to play,
I think they should respect the players' wishes
because what LeBron said made a lot of sense.
They said he wanted a break.
You know what I mean?
If that's just a five-day break in the middle of a season,
especially if it was a short season, a short offseason not why not just give him the break all right and casanova has gotten in trouble in new york and that's for participating in that
junebug tiktok challenge while he was in jail so the purpose of that challenge i know you've all
seen it you're supposed to go like to different locations that are you know and do that junebug
challenge there was a clip of on his instagram page where he's doing the dance in his jail cell
and they were also pictures posted to that instagram page but recording videos and taking
pictures during a video visitation is prohibited so now they're saying that he you know because of
these video visits and all of that now i guess his uh girlfriend won't be able to go and see him on video anymore that sucks yeah i know i was thinking that too remember we said that like
are you allowed to do that but casanova's attorney said i'm aware unaware of the specific allegations
he said this does appear to be a harmless infraction under the circumstances these
fellas are in prison but no visits or meaningful contact with their loved ones
it is unimaginably difficult to keep your spirits and faith under such circumstances.
All right.
Now, Tiffany Haddish was on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, and she talked about getting common to do that silhouette challenge with her.
The one that people were going crazy over.
It was very sexy.
And then he pulled her wig off.
Here's what she said happened.
I'm like, look, I want to shoot this video.
I need you to be in it with me. And he like no that's not really my style and i was like look every time
you ask me to do something i do it and i don't make no money i'm asking you to do something for
me and every time i do ask you to do something you get paid now what you gonna do on today is
this video with me or i won't be doing nothing for you. And he's like, all right, all right, calm down.
All right.
And then I only wanted to do three takes.
It turned into 18 takes.
He's like, let's shoot again.
Can we try it one more time this way?
Non-negotiable comment.
Yeah, you don't have a choice.
You got to do it.
Now, she also said that initially she had turned down Common when he wanted to date her.
Yeah, he was like trying to holler.
And I was like, no, I'm not really interested.
No, I'm good.
My eyes are set on other things.
I'm interested in somebody else.
I'm sorry, but you seem like a nice person.
You're a little too common for me.
Well, I know too many people that dated you.
Let's be honest.
I didn't say that, though. I didn't say that though I didn't say that
I can co-sign that
I can co-sign that I was around
I've heard conversations between
My sister friends like Tiffany Haddish
And my wife I've heard things
Yeah
Alright well Leon Spinks
Rest in peace and our condolences to his family
Leon Spinks has died at the age of 67, former heavyweight champion, and he had a years-long battle with cancer.
His wife, Brenda Spinks, was reportedly by his side at the time of his death.
He's from St. Louis.
He defeated Muhammad Ali for the world heavyweight title back in 1978.
Yeah, rest in peace, Leon Spinks.
And also, Danny Lay is single again.
I guess her and the baby broke up.
She posted officially single with a black heart emoji on it.
Another couple that broke up, Victor Cruz and Carucci,
they had broken up after three years together,
and there are no hard feelings between the two of them.
Don't speed past that, Yee.
Is Danny Lay allowed to use a black heart,
or is that colorism? Come on. Is she allowed to use a black heart? Or is that colorism?
Come on.
Is she allowed to use a black heart?
Because they have yellow hearts.
Is she allowed to use a black heart?
You can use whatever color heart you want.
Okay.
Just wondering.
All right.
Well, that is your rumor report.
That's right.
Coming up next, we got the People's Choice Mix.
Envy hasn't been here all morning.
But if I know DJ Envy like I know DJ Envy, he's recorded a pre-recorded mix, right?
Yeah, it's in there. Why didn't he let me do a ye mix? This is ridiculous at this point.
I'm going to be honest with you. The one time he was out, which was years, years, years.
I mean, he's been out more, but years, years, years ago, he was out and he let you do a ye mix.
I think it was a little too proper for him. That's what I think. I think he felt a little too... It was really slapping.
Yeah.
I mean, listen, we need that ye mix.
If Envy's not going to come in,
and that's why I think he doesn't tell us in advance
that he's not coming,
because he don't want me to get nothing ready.
But, all right.
So I'm going to lie to y'all.
Whatever.
1-800-585-1051.
If you got requests,
if you want Envy to play something in his mix for you,
call us right now.
It's The Breakfast Club.
What's up? It's The Breakfast Club. What's up?
It's The Breakfast Club, and it's time for our Black History Month Legends.
Charlamagne, who you got today?
Well, today's new Black History Month Legends are absolutely the Tampa Bay Buccaneers coaching staff.
You know I'm a Dallas Cowboy fan, but I got to pay respect when respect is due.
Yesterday was Super Bowl 55, and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers won the Super Bowl against the Kansas City Chiefs.
And they were led by four black coordinators.
Assistant head coach, run game coordinator, Harold Goodwin.
Offensive coordinator, Byron Lefwich.
Defensive coordinator, Todd Bowles.
And special teams coordinator, Keith Armstrong.
That right there shows you how much diversity matters.
Not to mention, they have two women on their coaching staff,
making them the most diverse staff in the NFL, period.
Now, Tampa Bay Buccaneers head coach Bruce Arian
spoke on why it was important to him
to have such a diverse coaching staff.
The Breakfast Club presents
a new Black History Month legend.
Diversity on your staff is huge.
You know, ours, even in age range from 26 to 82,
people of color, female assistant coaches,
players need to hear voices that are different,
also voices that look like them.
And so I would beg people that are putting staffs together
to look at some veteran coaches,
some young coaches, coaches of color, female coaches,
because there's a bunch of good female coaches out there that need a break and give them a shot.
And that was another new Black History Month legend,
courtesy of The Breakfast Club.
Now, when you see this, it makes you realize how much of a damn shame it is
that there are more black coaches in the NFL.
But salute to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers for leading the way and I hope you know brothers
like Byron Lefkowitz and Todd Bowles end up getting head coaching jobs at some point in the future
in the NFL all right well thank you for that black history month moment Charlemagne yes indeed
all right it is the breakfast club DJ Envy was not here this morning. He's going to come back with some tales from the Super Bowl tomorrow, I'm sure. Now, before a positive note, I also wanted to play. Remember we had Jadakiss doing the subway announcements? Well, I also did the subway announcements for New York City. And here's a little behind the scenes take of what really grinds my gears. And I said it with an attitude. I had to do some retakes, but here it is. It's Angela Yee from The Breakfast Club. Please don't hold the doors while the train is in the
station. This is New York City. You know, we all got places to be. Don't hold up a whole train of
people just because your friend doesn't know how to swipe a MetroCard. Cool. One more time,
this time a little bit friendlier. Oh, I'm from New York.
I told you that's exciting for me because my mother's worked for the transit authority since I was young.
So she's been working there for over 30 years now.
So she was super hype about that.
So if you are in New York, you will hear me speaking on some of these subway and bus announcements.
Now, Charlamagne, what's your positive note?
The positive note is simply this.
If you can't handle being talked about, lied on, and not liked, then you're simply
not ready to be successful. Breakfast club, bitches! You all finished or y'all done?
