I'm back here. It's been a long journey. I know you had plans to go to Jamaica, but I know that didn't work out. So what did you want to do?
Starting point is 00:03:33 Yeah, so I was going to Jamaica with a couple of my friends and they kept changing the rules. And then I said, you know what, I don't want to go to Jamaica. And then we're bringing over coronavirus. They've been doing a great job at maintaining everything there. So instead, I was going to not do much, but then I ended up going to Ohio to Dave Chappelle. He had this stand-up comedy show, and it was like a variety show kind of that he was hosting out there where he lives, and spent a few days there. We also went to Orlando in Florida.
Starting point is 00:03:59 And so that was basically my week off. And as soon as we got to Ohio, we all had to get tested for coronavirus before you can talk to anybody, be around anyone. So that was my first time doing that testing too. Well, how did he do that? As soon as you land, you cannot go into the state without being tested? No, when you go to Dave Chappelle's event. Oh, Dave Chappelle's event.
Starting point is 00:04:21 He paid for it. So he paid for the doctors to come and they set up like a mobile unit. And then everybody that wants, if you want to participate in any of the activities that he had going on, you have to get tested. You have to test negative for everybody that's been out there for the past couple of weeks. They have to keep on getting retested and you find out your results in 15 minutes. Now, do they do the thing up your nose, the long Q-tip? Wow. Yes, yes. It was not fun, but it was quick. And I think I was real nervous about it because everybody kept talking about how painful it was and you could feel it in your brain and all of this. But it was
Starting point is 00:04:55 really, really quick. It was less than like 15 seconds. Jeez, but was it painful? Could you feel it in your brain? Yeah, but I'm okay with a little pain. You know, they say women are better at withstanding pain. Goodness gracious. All right. Well, good morning, Toronto. Good morning, Toronto. Six, six, six, six, six, six, six. About time.
Starting point is 00:05:13 Toronto's like, I was waiting on my six. Jesus Christ. We haven't seen you in about six days. I was curious if she went to Jamaica or if she made it back, what was going on. So I'm just curious. That's all. Yeah, but I had a great week off. Yeah, I saw mad people out of the country.
Starting point is 00:05:28 I was like, man, what the hell is going on? Because I saw people in Barbados, I saw people in the Bahamas. I'm like, I saw people in Mexico. I was like, how the hell y'all get out of the country? Barbados is doing this whole thing where you can work from there for a year. They're granting people
Starting point is 00:05:43 like this opportunity to come and work there, and you can go back and forth. It's something they're trying to revive their tourism economy, but also since so many people are working from other places, it would be nice to work from Barbados from a year if you could. It ain't a vacation if I got to work. I get it, though. Yeah, but at least you'll be working on a beach.
Starting point is 00:06:06 Working in nice weather. And there's a lot of people... productivity a little bit. Maybe. There's a lot of people who have wanted to have the opportunity to be away for a year
Starting point is 00:06:15 and do things like that. So if you can right now, since your office building isn't letting people in, it's a great time to do it. You might not ever have that chance anytime soon again.
Starting point is 00:06:26 Yeah, you can only, you probably, that's better when you're single, though. You got kids and a family. You can't, I wish, I wish, but you can't just up and go away for a year at another place. Yeah, no, you can't, because it's going to be virtual classes, so they, you know, they can take virtual classes,
Starting point is 00:06:42 right? Well, not so fast. We're going to talk about that in front page news, because? Well, not so fast. We're going to talk about that in front page news because some people are back in school. You're five kids and wife and go live someplace for a year? I thought about it. I thought about it now. You got kids. Yeah, I'm going to take the kids with me.
Starting point is 00:06:58 I'm not allowing my kids back to school next year anyway. So the fact that we'll be virtual learning and the winter is going to be even more difficult. You'll be on the island, you'll be on the beach. You still, you know, do some type of virtual learning, but then at the end of the day, at least they can enjoy the warm weather, go outside on the beach, at least be able to do something. Cause you know, when it gets cold here and we're going to be on shutdown, ain't nothing we can do. Well, go ahead, DJ Luxury. I said, if I could, I ain't say I was going to do it. I said if I could, I would, but I ain't doing it. But anyway, let's get the show cracking now.
Starting point is 00:07:29 Filmmaker Dawn Porter and Erica Alexander, actress, will be joining us. They're going to be talking about a new film, John Lewis, Good Trouble. So we'll talk to them in a little bit. Good Trouble is amazing. Good Trouble is an amazing film. If y'all haven't watched it yet, y'all need to watch it.
Starting point is 00:07:43 It's on Amazon for $6.99. A great film. Very educational. And we got front page news coming up. What are we talking about, Yee? Well, since we're talking about school, I'll tell you where they are back in school right now. All right. We'll get into that next.
Starting point is 00:07:56 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. Where we starting, Yee?
Starting point is 00:08:10 Well, Detroit students started heading back to summer school in person. And there were protesters out there. There's one advocacy group by any means necessary. They blocked buses and made calls for people to block buses. There were demonstrators outside trying to derail the first day of classes for students who would be taking the bus. So they said it's not even safe for that to happen. We are only partially opening up the economy. So why is it safe for young kids to go to school and worse be transmitters for the families and for the teachers?
Starting point is 00:08:40 Yeah, I understand where they're coming from. I really do. I mean, they haven't even opened up the whole country yet. They're still opening up parts and phases, and they're allowing kids to go to school, which is very, very scary to me. Now, if you're traveling from hotspots to New York by plane, you have to give local officials contact information. According to Governor Cuomo, he's going to issue an emergency health order.
Starting point is 00:09:01 That means that people have to give their contact info, or they'll get a fine for $2,000. They'll get a summons and they'll be brought to a hearing and also be forced to quarantine. So when you get off the plane, you got a hand in that form. Yeah, that happened to me on a Saturday when we flew back from South Carolina. As soon as you get to the baggage claim area,
Starting point is 00:09:20 they're standing right there with them forms and you got to fill out one per household. That happened to me too, but they gave us the form on the plane and then there was no one there really taking them when we got in the baggage claim area. So everybody just walked out. But I guess, you know, it's a
Starting point is 00:09:35 work in progress right now as they're trying to figure out how to handle all of this and, you know, how to make sure that, I even like how they've been doing things in Jamaica. So we got to pay attention to how some of these islands have been handling coronavirus. So they have really low amounts of cases, you know, at this point in time. And I want to talk about a really tragic story that happened. There was a woman who was in Lancaster, Los Angeles, and she says that they violated her constitutional rights. They actually burst
Starting point is 00:10:05 through her door. Police officers handcuffed her and moved her outside naked and terrified her younger sister and son. They were actually looking for her brother who later on they said was being arrested at a different location. She's going by the name Jane Doe right now. And here's what she said. He opened my cover, like released it so it could it could drop. So when that drop, I fell to the ground. All the officers came and just bomb rushed and jumped on top of me, was touching my butt, my private area, my legs. The officer had his hand in my head.
Starting point is 00:10:35 He had his knee in my neck. I was drug across my grass. Keep in mind, I was on my menstrual period. So I'm completely undressed in my front yard. I'm being drug menstrual period. So I'm completely undressed in my front yard. I'm being dragged across my grass. You know, I saw some of that video yesterday. I couldn't watch it all.
Starting point is 00:10:53 I don't like putting stuff like that in my spirit. But all those police officers, man, I hope somebody is praying for y'all because you're going to need it. But the reality is it doesn't matter how much you pray for evil. They still have to reap what they sow. And when that karma comes back on them, it's going to be ugly. Everything you do to people, worse will happen to you and those you love. Trust me, the first law of nature is self-preservation. So when people start fighting back, it's your fault. And when God brings his wrath down upon y'all, it's your fault. How hard is it to treat people the way that you want to be treated? You learn that in kindergarten. And if
Starting point is 00:11:23 you don't care how you are treated by the way you treat people, then treat people the way you want others to treat those you love. What part of your body says that's okay to do? What part of your mind says that's okay to do? That has to be devastating. This happened, by the way, last year, July 25th in 2019.
Starting point is 00:11:41 And she actually asked her younger sister to start recording that encounter on the cell phone so that she would have it. And of course she doesn't want to show her face, say her name because it's humiliating. Right. I would say God have mercy on those police officers, but God told me to mind my business.
Starting point is 00:11:57 He got work to do. That's what he said. All right. Well, that is front page news. Get it off your chest. 800-585-1051. If you need to vent, hit us up now. It's The Breakfast Club.
Starting point is 00:12:07 Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Is your country falling apart? Feeling tired? Depressed? A little bit revolutionary? Consider this. Start your own country.
Starting point is 00:12:20 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 for 500 pounds of concrete. Everybody's doing it. I am King Ernest Emmanuel. I am the Queen of Ladonia.
Starting point is 00:12:33 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. 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 a rocket with a black powder, you know, with explosive warhead.
Starting point is 00:12:52 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.

And I believe down to my soul, you discriminated donkey other day yesterday when it came to that Will and Jada situation. We did a whole hour talking about Will and Jada. I told you I was bombing on Jada. Damn hour. She's supposed to get donkey other day.

But you discriminated yesterday because she took advantage of that boy when he was hurting. And all she wanted to do was feel good as if she was Halle Berry on Martha's Ball.

Starting point is 00:19:16 Hey, get it off your chest. Hey, good morning. Sometimes you got to think some people don't know how to love. They don't know how to love. How are they going to dish it out? What are you talking about? If they don't know how to love, how are they going to dish it out? That is very true.
Starting point is 00:19:33 But what are you talking about in particular? The incident that just happened with that young lady with the police officers. You know. Oh. The violence and stuff going on in the world. So you're telling me that police officers Yeah, they don't know how to be taught.
Starting point is 00:19:50 That's how they was taught. The police teach you how to be evil. They teach you how to be evil. And then you go home and do the same thing to the outside world. So that's not part of love. If you don't know how to love, how you gonna dish it out? Yeah, I think also, too, sometimes people just abuse power.
Starting point is 00:20:08 You know what I mean? And you don't realize that you're abusing power until you actually get power. And that badge gives you power. I don't even need you to love me. Just treat me like a human being. The woman was in the shower. She said, let me get some clothes. They wouldn't even let her put clothes on.
Starting point is 00:20:23 Some men don't care how they treat women. So you say, in other words, you don't care how you treat your mother, how you treat your daughter, how you treat your granddaughter. It goes on and on and on. If we can't stop, how is it going to, you know, how is it going to change? That's what I said. If, you know, doing to others is you would have them doing to you. But if you don't care what happens to you based off how you treat others,
Starting point is 00:20:45 at least care about what happens to other people you love based on how you treat others. Well, thank you for checking in, mama. Hello, who's this? Yo, it's Joe from Brooklyn. Joe from Brooklyn. Get it off your chest, bro. Yeah, man, first of all,

Starting point is 00:22:02 You know? And, you know, I'm like, yo, it don't make no sense. This don't make no sense. We still got to factor in the fact that 40 million people are unemployed. You know what I'm saying? Like the hood is in bad shape right now. Not only, you know, financially, but, you know, the way that coronavirus has impacted the black community. So it's just like, man, it's going to be a rough summer, a very rough summer.

It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. Let's get to the rumors. Let's talk Naya Rivera.
Starting point is 00:26:50 This is The Rumor Report with Angela Yee. Rumor has it. On The Breakfast Club. So listen up. Man, this is a really heartbreaking story. But Naya Rivera, they have found her body and they are saying that she was with her four-year-old son. They went swimming in an area of the lake. The water was 35 to 60 foot deep waters and there's heavy brush and trees that rise up nearly 20 feet
Starting point is 00:27:16 from the lake bed. They said they believe she was concealed within the shrubbery of some of the floor bed of the lake before her body actually rose to the surface. They said her body looked like it had been in the water for several days. She didn't have on a life jacket. It looked like she was actually trying to save her four-year-old son. And she went and got him onto the boat, but didn't have the energy to save herself. So that's what they believe happened. That is a tragic, tragic story. I don't even have the words for that one.
Starting point is 00:27:46 I don't even have the words for that other than condolences And you know when you hear stuff like that man those freak accidents that just happen like you know you just wake up one day and you hear something like that you kind of appreciate staying your ass in the house. I'm not going to lie to you even though that's not the way you can live life you got to go out there and you know
Starting point is 00:28:01 But you know you got a freak accident you got a freak accident in your crib. I mean, it could happen at any time, you know. All right. Jesus Christ. Don't make me, don't do that. My anxiety already threw the roof. I don't want to hear that.
Starting point is 00:28:15 No, you made it seem like it could just happen, you know. Just imagine her four-year-old son who actually described what went down. And he was saying that she helped him onto the boat and then he said he looked back and saw her disappear under the surface of the water. Imagine how her poor son is going to feel and this is something that was national news
Starting point is 00:28:35 and I'm sure he'll hear about it forever. For the rest of his life. That's something he will absolutely think about for the rest of his life. And he's only four, so he's probably not old enough to quite understand it and grasp what happened. So that's trauma he's going to relive as he even
Starting point is 00:28:52 gets older. When he gets older, start going to therapy and stuff and just talking to people, all that's going to come back. Alright, Tamara Marie Housley is leaving The Real after six seasons. She posted, for seven years my home and heart has been at The Real. The friendships that I've made there will last a lifetime,
Starting point is 00:29:08 and the people that I've had the blessing to interview have changed my life for the better. I'm so proud of what all the ladies and I have accomplished there. And she goes on to talk about that. She said, Sisters, forever I'll be rooting for you. She also said, I had no intention to talk about this today,
Starting point is 00:29:22 especially in light of the news of my dear friend Naya, but now some reports are coming out and I'd rather you hear it from me first. Hey man, follow the leader, Queen Amanda Seals. Amanda Seals took that Underground Railroad. Amanda walked so the rest of y'all could run. So if you feel the need to run, run! Alright, well, you know, she wants to spend more time with her
Starting point is 00:29:40 family and working on other projects, so that was a nice long run that she had on the reel also. All right. Now, Beyonce, her Be Good is teaming up with the NAACP to award grants to Black-owned businesses that were impacted by COVID-19. They will provide a number of $10,000 grants to Black- owned businesses who have been affected in the recent months. They said the challenges of Black business owners navigating in the climate cannot be understated as the effects of uprisings across the nation
Starting point is 00:30:09 have led to many businesses being placed in dire straits due to damages and other small business needs. So now you can apply online. And the cities that they are working with in particular are Houston, Atlanta, New York, LA, and Minneapolis. Drop on the Clues Bonds for Beyonce. That's a great idea. Gotta write that one down.
Starting point is 00:30:26 Gotta write that. I've heard people say, you know, that they wanted to do things like that, but you know, she actually executed it. So salute to her. Yes, and to the NAACP. So businesses in those cities can apply online until July 19th.
Starting point is 00:30:40 Applications are then going to be reviewed between July 20th and 29th, and then you'll be notified on july 31st on beyonce.com to see if you were eligible for that grant now bumby told an interesting story and he was on the nostalgia mixtape podcast where he talked about getting kicked out of a beyonce video shoot so imagine that they're doing a checkup on it and that's the song that slim thug is on and bumby and later on well we, we'll let Bum B tell it. Here's what he said happened.
Starting point is 00:31:09 This is also in the earliest stages of Jay-Z and Beyonce as a couple. And so we're on the set, and we're filming the video, and if you look at the video, there's a lot of kind of skimpy outfits. Right. And Queenie's there also, so it's not like I'm sitting there salivating over another woman. And Jay-Z calls, and he's like, also so it's not like I'm like sitting there salivating over another woman and um Jay-Z calls and he's like yeah how's the video going what's going good are the guys there yeah they're there you know it's them and some of their homies he's like wait
Starting point is 00:31:33 a minute how many dudes are there and so she's like oh it's about nine to ten guys I guess over there that where are they now they're near they're in the soundstage they're watching her film what is she wearing they describe the outfit he's like he's like, yo, clear the room. Yeah, here's what else Bumby had to say about Beyonce actually apologizing when she found out what happened. I guess Beyonce gets wind of the call. She comes up, and she apologizes. I'm so sorry you guys had to leave the room, but Jay's not comfortable. We understand fully, right?
Starting point is 00:32:04 We're like, no, it's no problem. We're happy to be here. From my point of view, I don't give a s*** about none of that. I'm really in awe of watching Beyonce shoot a video. And the main thing we're in awe of is the work ethic. That's Bun B. Bun is a gentleman and a scholar. Always has been. One of the most professional people you ever want to meet in your
Starting point is 00:32:20 life. So I absolutely believe him when he says he was just there in awe of Beyonce doing her craft and watching her work. And he had his wife with him. And I'm sure Hov wasn't concerned about Blythe B. He was concerned about the other eight people with him that he didn't know. That's what I'm
Starting point is 00:32:35 sure he was more cautious of. And I get it. And you don't want people pulling out cell phones, recording things, leaking things before people get to see them beforehand. I mean, they're shooting a video. That's back in the day when videos used to really mean something. Yeah, correct.
Starting point is 00:32:52 That's when videos were premiering on, I think, 106th and Park was still around when Checkup On It was out, right? Yeah. Hell yeah. I believe so, yeah. Yeah. All right. Well, I'm Angela Yee, and that is your rumor report.
Starting point is 00:33:02 All right. Thank you, Ms. Yee. Now we got front page news coming up. Yes, and let's talk about the NBA. The NBA is in their bubble right now. So it's the WNBA. We'll give you some updates. You know, since they started testing July 1st, 19 players have tested positive.
Starting point is 00:33:16 But we'll give you the latest update. 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. Good morning. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy.

Starting point is 00:33:45 in the room a little while ago. Yesterday I felt like a prostitute. Go. So I was riding my bike, right? You know I ride my bike with my little poom poom shorts, my little biker shorts, right? That's what we call them, right? Look at that boy with the Daisy Dukes on. They got the gel in the crotch to make sure your butt
Starting point is 00:34:01 and your crotch and your areas are good. So anyway, I throw the bike in the truck. The key is on the bike. So I throw it, in the crotch to make sure your butt and your crotch and your areas are good. So anyway, I throw the bike in the truck. The key is on the bike. So I throw it, close the door. I lock my key in the truck. So I had to call Madison to come get me. So I had to stand on the corner with these poom-poom shorts on so I could guide Madison in. And as I'm standing there, people are beeping the horn.
Starting point is 00:34:21 Look at his legs. Look at his legs. But they only do that because you made fun of me now. Now every time somebody see me, they be like, yo, Charlamagne is right, yo, man. You do got your ass out. Everybody says that now. Lucky I didn't drive by. Why?
Starting point is 00:34:35 You don't have OnStar where they could open the door, open your doors for you if you're lacking keys inside? I wasn't even thinking about it. He knew what he was doing. I wasn't even thinking about it. That little tease, that tease knew what he was doing. That little? He knew what he was doing. I wasn't even thinking about that. That tease knew what he was doing. That little yellow tease knew what he was doing.
Starting point is 00:34:51 He lucky I didn't drive by because I'd have offered him top dollar. Shut up, man. I'm standing on the corner. It's getting late. It's getting dark. I'm sitting here. I got nothing but legs out. My crotch all out. You knew what you was doing? You ain't DJing a party in a long time. You got to make some extra money. You know what?
Starting point is 00:35:06 You think you're too good for OnlyFans. You know what? Let's get in front page news. I hate this guy. All right. The NFL is going to retire the Redskins name, and they're going to change the name and the logo. So the new name has not been revealed yet.
Starting point is 00:35:23 That's crazy. They've been trying to change that name for the longest time. And the symbolism is good. The Cleveland Indians have also pledged to reexamine their names. The manager said he believes it's time to change the name and it's time to move forward. So it's a good time for that. Yeah, all of this symbolism is good, but it's still not systemic change. We still need systemic change in regards to legislation.
Starting point is 00:35:47 We still need systemic change in regards to reparations, economic equity packages for black people. All of this stuff is cute, okay? It's cute, but this isn't systemic change. Yeah, but it's also good not to normalize certain terms and seem like this is what it should be like, with the terrible history our country has you know so i get that you know all those things simultaneously yeah just don't let it pacify you
Starting point is 00:36:11 just don't don't don't don't see things like this and be like yay be like okay cool but what's up with that that money though what's up with changing these laws though right all right now let's talk about the nba russell westbrook has tested positive for coronavirus. So he wants people to know this is not a game when you have to go out there and get tested. He tested positive in the bubble. He tested positive in the NBA bubble that they have where they test everybody before they go in. Nah, they was leaving for the bubble. Oh, they was leaving for the bubble.
Starting point is 00:36:40 Okay. So players that do that will have to quarantine in their room for 48 hours after their arrival, everybody before practicing with the team, with the Rockets. And they said three players are working out at their home bases. So they, you know, have to make sure they quarantine. I see people posting from inside the bubble and everything. And I also saw them saying, y'all need to stop complaining about your accommodations in this billion dollar bubble as you guys are quarantining.
Starting point is 00:37:07 So I saw all of that happening right now. Now, NBA player Rashawn Holmes has to also isolate. He crossed the Disney border to get a food delivery. Did y'all see that story? No. So now he has to quarantine for 10 days. He had to, he tried to, he left the border of the Walt Disney World campus and he went to pick up
Starting point is 00:37:29 food that he had delivered to the bubble. And now as a result of that, he has to quarantine for 10 days and he apologized in a statement as well. He was starving. He wanted some food and said, you know what, I'm going to Uber Eats and said, you know, nobody will catch me and they caught him, huh? Right. So the total number of NBA players that have tested positive
Starting point is 00:37:46 for coronavirus since July 1st is 21. Just recently, the NBA and the Players Union said in a joint statement that two players have tested positive at the Orlando campus. So that brings the total to 21 players. The players, the other 19 players tested positive before traveling. I wonder what percentage of players that is. Last time I checked, it was like 7%, like a little less than 7%. So I wonder what the percentage of players that is now.
Starting point is 00:38:14 And I wonder what the percentage of players they were expecting to test positive. There's 322 players. Yeah, I would think that's why they're doing all that testing. They know some, and they just want to lower those numbers Make sure coronavirus doesn't spread So we'll keep you updated I bet you they keep them Coronavirus tests away from LeBron James
Starting point is 00:38:34 God damn it, don't even bring one his way I'm sure everybody has No, but LeBron got his own Bubble within a bubble, they cannot afford To have LeBron James sitting out two weeks Especially in this little short playoff run window. Hell no. He's the marquee guy.
Starting point is 00:38:49 And they need the Lakers to be there in the finals. All right. They also have these new mouth shields that they're going to be testing as well to make sure that there's a shield within this face mask and offset vents and the filter and all of that. So we'll see how that works. For like a play-in? Mm-hmm.
Starting point is 00:39:07 No. That's for the NFL. Oh, for the NFL. Okay. Mm-hmm. All right. Well, that is your front page news. All right.
Starting point is 00:39:16 Thank you, Miss Yee. Now, when we come back, we have a couple of special guests joining us. Now, the movie, John Lewis, you've seen the movie, right, Charlamagne? Man, yes, I did. I paid my $6.99 on Sunday night to watch Good Trouble by John Lewis. It is an amazing film. They talk about the thousands of protests, the 45 arrests, 31 years in Congress. It's things that I didn't even know happened during the civil rights movement, like the classes that they actually took to be in the mindset that they were in. Good Trouble by John Lewis is very informative, very educational.
Starting point is 00:39:51 Everybody should pay that $6.99 to watch it. Yeah, I watched it as well on Prime Video. Okay, so we're going to talk with the filmmaker Dawn Porter and actress friend to the room, Erica Alexander. So don't move. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club.
Starting point is 00:40:07 Morning, everybody. It's DJ N.V. Angela Yee, Charlamagne Naga. We are The Breakfast Club. We got some special guests on the line right now. We have friends to the room that's been on here several times. Miss Erica Alexander, welcome back. Thank you. I'm so
Starting point is 00:40:23 glad to see y'all. Thank you for the invitation. And we also have graduate of Bronx High School of Science. I tried to go there so bad, but I couldn't get in. We have Dawn Porter. Welcome. Thank you for having me. And I wish you had gone to high school with me. You'd have got tired of him trying to cheat off your papers, Dawn.
Starting point is 00:40:41 Probably. But I want to tell both of y'all, fantastic job on the documentary Good Trouble about John Lewis. I paid my $6.99 on Amazon last night, and I really, really enjoyed it. Really enjoyed it. Thank you. Appreciate it. Yeah, thank you. So for people that don't know, who is John Lewis?
Starting point is 00:41:00 Well, explain. Who is John Lewis? John Lewis is a congressman who represents Spitz District in Atlanta. And he's served in Congress for almost two decades. But before that, he is one of the founding fathers of the civil rights movement. So as a, you know, he was inspired by Rosa Parks. He was inspired by the black women that he saw who were protesting and doing the Montgomery bus boycott. He was among a number of youth organizers who was able to desegregate Nashville.
Starting point is 00:41:37 And then very famously, he also confronted troopers at the Selma Bridge, the Edmund Pettus Bridge in Selma. He also was the youngest speaker at the March on Washington. So he's been a warrior for justice for black people and for all people since he was a teenager. Absolutely. You know, I think people have a false narrative of John Lewis. When I posted last night that I watched the documentary, a lot of people were in my comments saying, oh, I'm not interested in hearing about John Lewis getting beat up again. You know, for some reason, kids don't respect that nonviolent resistance.
Starting point is 00:42:11 What would you say to those people? You know, John Lewis was, it's interesting, and that is exactly why I wanted to do this film, because I think people have a misunderstanding of what nonviolence is. And what John Lewis explains to us is nonviolence is power. It is keeping your countenance and not behaving like your oppressors. So John Lewis studied religion. He studied philosophy. And if you think about his tactics and techniques,
Starting point is 00:42:42 they really did lead to lasting change. You know, so as a child growing up in the segregated South, John Lewis grew up in the time of Emmett Till, where if you looked or were alleged to have looked at a white woman, you could be killed. And yet that he went and with other 19 year olds organized in Nashville to desegregate. It was the first city to desegregate. He was beaten. He was spit on and he kept showing up.
Starting point is 00:43:15 And one of my favorite quotes of one of his compatriots there was we kept giving them the opportunity to change. And that is what we are seeing today. We are seeing people not just in the southern states, but in all 50 states showing up. And that is the pressure that we are seeing some things change. So, you know, I think people, everyone is entitled to their opinion about what makes change, and everyone needs to do what they think is the best way, but do something. So my frustration is with people who say, I don't want that nonviolence.
Starting point is 00:43:53 Then what do you want? Tell me what do you want? And do that. But understand that this has also really led to the Voting Rights Act. And he's still fighting for all of us. I was going to say, based on putting this film together and what you've seen and when you spoke to him, what would you tell some of the people out there right now
Starting point is 00:44:14 that's on the front lines or the people that want to protest or the people that want change? What would you tell them? I think it's a really great lesson to watch John Lewis, who learned that the most powerful nonviolent tool for change for any movement was the right to vote. And so he works every day to defend it. He protected that right exclusively for everyone else. And he had skin on the game.
Starting point is 00:44:38 John's right. He was there on that bridge, you know, shedding blood and tears to keep that vote safe. So beyond the protest, you have to vote. Voting is that voice. It's a powerful tool. And we have to all know that democracy is a moving target. If you don't nurture it, it'll go somewhere else and somebody else will. And you'll be living underneath their will.
Starting point is 00:45:00 That's why they burned those votes and threw that tea into the Boston harbor, because they didn't want to be ruled by King George. The only thing that stops us from that type of authoritarian power is voting. What do you think, Erica, about people who say that don't respect the non-violent resistance that somebody like John Lewis, you know, displayed? Well, listen, they can sit there on their high horse and talk about that, but one of the reasons why the people then, or at least black people, used that tactic is because we were outgunned.
Starting point is 00:45:33 We were outmanned. And we knew that we would be slaughtered if we tried anything different. We know because there were slave rebellions that said so, that they had been maybe overpopulated in the South, but under trained and would not be able to sustain any sort of military operation. So let's also remember that as much as and I love Malcolm X. They talked about not using nonviolence as a tool.
Starting point is 00:46:04 They weren't down there getting their butts whooped and those dogs set upon them. He was down there doing that. So when people see that somebody's willing to put their own body in harm's way and then say that they're a coward, they better show me their tape. They better put them up so we can all see them before you have the audacity to talk about what they were willing to go through. For you to sit there, by the way, and have that attitude and, by the way, enjoy the freedom that they brought.
Starting point is 00:46:38 Man, I'm so glad you said that because I say that all the time. I love Brother Malcolm X. I love the NOI. But it's a big difference between holding a gun in a window and actually being on the front lines while they're spraying tear gas on you, busting you upside your head with billy clubs. I wish they would have took some of them guns down there
Starting point is 00:46:56 and stood on the front lines with those brothers and sisters. Me too. Me too. And if you see the people out there protesting, then you see white, black, young, old, and they are on the side of right. That's new. So, you know, that would
Starting point is 00:47:12 be a different type of army. But then black people were very siloed and alone in that attitude. And they endured it with integrity and with determination. And that's why we're here today, talking to you guys, and I'm here, because they afforded us this opportunity.
Starting point is 00:47:27 All right, we have more with Dawn Porter and Erica Alexander. 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're still kicking it with Dawn Porter and Erica Alexander. Now, Charlamagne.
Starting point is 00:47:43 Was there ever a discouraging factor while creating the film and realizing not much has changed between then and now? Yeah. You know, I say for sure. But I try to balance my pessimism, which is a sort of natural instinct, as you say, a preservation with the optimism that he shows. Obviously, I've been very inspired by this man now. If I didn't know him now, I know him very well.
Starting point is 00:48:13 But I got to say, it's very difficult to look out onto the world and not be influenced by the dark nature of it. And more importantly, the confluence of the pandemic, the murders of aubrey maude aubrey and uh george floyd bianna tater all those things along with financial you know collapse all of that you you you wouldn't have a heart you'd be human if you were looking at this and didn't think that maybe we wouldn't make it. I think that we are a very young nation in terms of world history, but we're going very fast toward a dark end.
Starting point is 00:48:49 And I see it clearly maybe because I'm a dramatist in my mind, but what I'd like to believe is that there's something that's larger than what I can see in, let's just say, the collective goodness of the world will pull us back. But, yeah, I'm always thinking that. You know, how does it feel? And this is part to what you were saying as far as hope is concerned, because you did this piece and you seen everything that he went through,
Starting point is 00:49:15 but now you look at it years later and it seems like we're going through the same thing over and over again. Like, you know, there is no change or is the change so little. So we're looking at that. Do you guys have hope for the future? Do you have hope for your 18 year old son, Dawn? And, you know, the kids out there, do you have hope? You know, I think that one thing that has changed is our expectations. And black people are not willing to accept good enough so i do have hope for that because i'm not willing to accept anything less than safety and respect for myself and my children so i do think things have changed we have a record-making 55 members of the Black Caucus.
Starting point is 00:50:06 We have, you know, elected leaders. We have people who have, you know, broken through economically. Not enough has changed. And you know what? That's on us because we cannot rest on the fact that things will, because people will allow us. If we don't push, no one's going to push for us. And that's the lesson of Tom Lewis,
Starting point is 00:50:34 is no one's going to give up what they have. You have to push for it. You have to hold people accountable. And you have to behave in a way that shows people that little crumbs aren't enough letting in one black person into the halls of power in a corporation is not enough you know all of that can like don't be content and and for the people who like let the door close behind them, shame on you. So I do have hope, though, because I think that there's a lot more loud people, and it's getting louder every day.
Starting point is 00:51:13 Absolutely. I think this doc restored hope for me. It gave me a reason to be a little optimistic, because one thing that kept being reiterated was our democracy is being threatened, that our democracy could actually die. And i hear that i honestly think good for america they got to deal with their own karma as much as i feel like i hate the system of america the system of white supremacy when i watch this doc and see what brothers like john lewis went through and see what the sisters went through it's like we have to assist in saving this nation in spite of it. What do you think? I completely agree with that.
Starting point is 00:51:46 And this is the country we have. And, you know, Dr. King said you criticize. And so did James Baldwin. You criticize out of love, just like your parents criticize you out of love. And I kind of turn it around and say, like, this is my country. I'm not asking for permission to love it. I'm asking it for due. I'm making it the place that I want it to be. So I very much agree with you.
Starting point is 00:52:24 I refuse to be made bitter. I just refuse. Erica, do you want to expound? Sure. Racism is about power. You have to destroy the core. I don't know if y'all ever saw the 13th Warrior, where they have to go in and get the mother of the Vendel,
Starting point is 00:52:48 because if they don't, the Vendel that's just outside the village will keep pushing in and destroying the village. It's a fable. It's a really great movie. It's got Antonio Banderas in it that's kind of cool and hot. But the point is that voting is our sword and you know we're talking about systemic change to try to uproot and the only thing you can do is show up locally everyone's talking about this national election and i know you guys say this all the time and we got to get it through our heads politics are local all politics and so i look at that and I say up and down the ballot,
Starting point is 00:53:26 let's get out there and do it. And I know you guys, you know, both of you, Envy and Charlemagne, you met Reverend Barber. He was going to talk about people's campaign. Yeah, fusion politics he talked about. The need to create Martin Luther King's call for economic justice and the revolution inside of the economy.
Starting point is 00:53:44 And Envy, that's what you're talking about by educating us on how to build wealth through property ownership. But there's a bias trap set by these racist rats that really cabal within the financial system. Then it's a cancer. We have to dismantle it. There's things that we have to do that you can only do through systematic change, and that takes time. We've got to watch out how we just try to paint everybody with the same dark brush, all politicians and stuff.
Starting point is 00:54:13 Nothing's ever changed. This person's corrupt. That does us no good. That's not true. We have clean water. You can turn it on and flush your toilet because somebody voted for it somebody voted to take your trash up off the street or to check your meat for um for um whatever that she could be in there sure it doesn't always work we have all sorts of issues to solve but this is what we have the system we have and if somebody's going to create something greater than that then they
Starting point is 00:54:41 have to vote for that they have to find a consensus with a whole mess of people, a majority, and push forward. Until then, we move the football down the field bit by bit. And each person, when it's time to run their leg of the race, they pick that bad boy up and get to moving. All right, well, thank you so much. And tell them how they can see it one more time. How can they see this movie one more time?
Starting point is 00:55:05 It's on Amazon or iTunes, Fios. It's on 14 cable presenters, but we would really appreciate the support right now. And then also what you all do is unparalleled, and it's just making me cry being able to be here with you. So thank you for sharing these words and sharing his story. Thank you, guys, so much. Thank you, Don.
Starting point is 00:55:30 Now, good trouble is great. I paid my $6.99 last night. They wouldn't let you buy it, though. You got to rent it. So, you know what I'm saying? I'm going to check it out this week. I'm going to make sure the kids watch it as well. Yeah, absolutely.
Starting point is 00:55:41 Thank you. Tell them we said thank you. No, thank you. Dawn Porter, Eric Alexander, thank you so much. We appreciate you guys for checking in. Thank you. Tell them we said thank you. No, thank you. Dawn Porter, Eric Alexander, thank you so much. We appreciate you guys for checking in. Thank you. Will do. Thank you, brother. It's about time. What's going
Starting point is 00:55:54 on? Rumor Report. This is the Rumor Report with Angela Yee on The Breakfast Club. Well, Tory Lanez was arrested. He's been having a very active quarantine time, but there was allegedly an argument outside of a house party, and then cops found a gun in his car,
Starting point is 00:56:12 and they said Megan Thee Stallion was with him as well. And we've seen that they've all been hanging out for the past few days. They also said that Megan Thee Stallion had a cut on her foot that was believed to be from broken glass on the floor of the vehicles, and that's when cops did search the car and they found the gun. So he was taken to jail and he was booked for carrying a concealed weapon in a vehicle, which is a felony. Well, I wonder if the gun was registered to him.
Starting point is 00:56:35 I mean, either way, he's still going to have to, you know. I'm sure it can't be registered to him because he's from Canada and he was in the U.S. He can't have a registered gun, I don't think. No. You can't get a permit in California to carry? And you live in Toronto? You're from Toronto?
Starting point is 00:56:52 Yeah, but I'm sure he has citizenship in America, too. Don't you think? You would have to to be able to work, right? I don't know. I don't know. Well, according to reports, they said that witnesses reported people were arguing in an SUV. Then somebody fired shots in the air and then the vehicle took off and they did find four shell casings from the scene outside the home.
Starting point is 00:57:12 All right. Another person arrested was Brashear Gray. You know him from playing Hakeem on Empire. And he was in Arizona and he was arrested for domestic violence. They said he was arrested early Monday morning just outside of Phoenix after a standoff with the SWAT team and crisis negotiators. And they said, allegedly, he beat his wife pretty badly. So they said his wife had numerous visible injuries
Starting point is 00:57:34 on her body, and she claims that he strangled her and she temporarily lost consciousness during the alleged assault. Damn. Ooh, what's going on? Mm-hmm. All right, Brushy Air Gray
Starting point is 00:57:46 was taken into custody and booked into jail on three charges, felony aggravated assault, which is strangulation, misdemeanor assault, domestic violence, and misdemeanor
Starting point is 00:57:54 disorderly conduct, and his wife was treated for her injuries and released from the hospital, according to the police. I want to give y'all some good news. Yeah, do you have anything good?
Starting point is 00:58:04 Anything that's going to make me feel better? Geesh. DJ Khaled got some new music coming. He has two collabs with Drake. If you're excited about that, he posted a video to tease that yesterday. He was wearing an animal print shirt and strolling through
Starting point is 00:58:17 some vegetation. You heard birds chirping in the background. He had an owl. He had an actual owl. He had an owl. Mm-hmm. And he said, two keys, two anthems, two DJ Khaled featuring Drake this Friday, Thursday, 12 midnight.
Starting point is 00:58:34 Each key leads to the next key. Album mode, we the best OVO, so you know. I want to hit it. I want to hit it. I'll tell you something, though. Khaled and Envy,
Starting point is 00:58:44 whatever Beijing they're using is a little bit too dark You know what I'm saying It looks like they're in HD all the time It's a little too black A little too shiny, a little too glossy It doesn't look real I don't use no Beijing, but continue Alright
Starting point is 00:59:01 And Chance the Rapper He was on Twitter yesterday You know when a woman know you lying All right, and Chance the Rapper, he was on Twitter yesterday. You know when a woman know you lying? You know damn Beijing. Beijing makes your face bump out. Well, some of you are using paint. Yeah, how do you know, Envy?
Starting point is 00:59:20 I'm not using no paint, but go ahead. Envy using paint. The same black mate Envy puts on his car as he puts it on his chin. The black mate? It's Matt. It's Matt. There you go. Matt. There you go.
Starting point is 00:59:33 My goodness. All right, and Chance the Rapper was on Twitter yesterday and he was talking about the presidential election and he posted, are you more pro-Biden or anti-Yay and why? I get that you'll want to reply that you're just trying to get Trump out, but in this hypothetical scenario
Starting point is 00:59:47 where you're replacing Trump, can someone explain why Joe Biden would be better? And then he said, I'm going to keep it real. A lot of you, and whereas it's racist, are we pro two-party system and y'all out here trying to convince me to vote for Biden after he reposted Kanye
Starting point is 01:00:03 posting a video of his mom reciting KRS-One lyrics. And then he said, I always felt a way about people using the word presidential, like an N-word acting or not acting presidential. Was Andrew Jackson acting presidential? And then he said, I didn't plan on trending today, but I would like to take this opportunity to say with all these apologies and accountabilities going around the city of Chicago and the Chicago police department should finally admit to and denounce the assassination of Fred Hampton. Things went a little left though when Terry Crews actually agreed with him and Terry Crews said nah Chance the Rapper is just doing the math and seeing a lot of things that don't add up this is what happens
Starting point is 01:00:41 when you think for yourself and that's when Chance the Rapper actually snapped out of it. You know, I have no idea what Chance was talking about. I don't really pay Chance that much attention on Twitter because it's very hard for me to respect things Chance says on Twitter because he doesn't stand on anything he says on Twitter. Whenever he starts getting backlash, whenever he starts, whenever he says a statement, he says something. If he starts getting backlash, he backtracks just like he did yesterday so it makes me believe that a lot of things he says on twitter is just performative it's just pandering so so to speak you know i i need i need you to say what you say and stand on it and by the way if you learn new information about something and you change your mind that's perfectly okay but he just tends to say things so much and soon as he get backlash he backtracks so
Starting point is 01:01:31 i'm like well what do you really believe in chance like what what what would you say and absolutely positively stand on is what i want to know it just seems very performative and it seems like very pandering like chance to pander is whater is what we might need to start calling Chance. On Twitter. Just on Twitter. Keep on supporting the public school system in Chicago. We appreciate and love you for that. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:01:52 Absolutely. Absolutely. All right. I'm Angela Yee, and that is your rumor report. All right. Thank you, Miss Yee. Now, we got rumors on the way, Charlemagne. Why would Charlemagne be doing rumors?
Starting point is 01:02:02 My bad. She ain't been going that long long now Them shorts got into your brain It's that biker gel Would y'all shut the f*** up Envy said he had camel toe You cannot have Well hopefully you can't have camel toe Are y'all done?
Starting point is 01:02:15 Well we got Donald J. Trump Is going to get donkey of the day You ever heard of him? Nope The Don and Donkey stands for Donald Trump Alright we'll get into that next It's the Breakfast Club Good morning Morning everybody It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning.
Starting point is 01:02:25 Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God. We are the Breakfast Club. Now, Charlamagne gave Donkey today to your president, Donald Trump. Now, why did you give him Donkey today? Because Donald Trump is clearly just jealous of President Barack Obama. And yesterday he said that Obama and Biden just stopped their coronavirus testing altogether. But that doesn't make any sense because coronavirus, COVID-19 simply didn't exist when Obama and Biden were in the White House. But that's what happens when you know you're jealous of somebody. When you're jealous of somebody, you know that person triggers all your insecurities.
Starting point is 01:03:06 You know what I mean? And that's what it is with Donald Trump. Donald Trump hates President Obama because Obama's scrimp reminds Trump of all his weaknesses. Period. Alright, so we're asking 800-585-1051 When's the last time you were jealous of
Starting point is 01:03:21 somebody or something? Start with you, Ye. When's the last time you were jealous of somebody? You? Start with you, Ye. When's the last time you were jealous of somebody? You know, this is something that when I was first getting started in radio, I really understood. And I actually did a whole TED Talk about it. And so, you know, just like Charlamagne just said, it is a lot to do with insecurity. And I remember when I first got my first job in radio,
Starting point is 01:03:41 a lot of people were saying things about me. Oh, she must have slept with somebody to get that job. And it was people I thought I was friends with. And I had to realize that a lot of times when people have negative things to say about you, it does stem from jealousy, which stems from insecurity because they're not where they want to be. And they feel like, why is this person getting that opportunity? I'm not. So it is something I've always consciously tried to make sure that if I ever feel like I'm hating in a way or jealous in any way, I check myself right away. And it works so well for me for the past few years that I don't even have those thoughts anymore. But it definitely is something that you have to be conscious and aware of when you say hateful things about people.
Starting point is 01:04:22 Usually it means you're not happy with things that are going on with yourself. And the best way to remedy that is just worry about yourself. What about you, Charlamagne? Well, you know, jealousy is a form of hatred built on insecurity. So if I'm being totally honest, I'm only jealous of men with big penises. I can be honest and say that it's one of my triggers simply because back in the day when my wife was in college and we had broke up for a year she had an entanglement with a person whose penis she said was huge it's my fault because when i found out she slept with the guy i asked her the questions i shouldn't have
Starting point is 01:04:54 asked her which is was he better than me and was he bigger than me and he wasn't better than me but when i asked if he was bigger she said and i, I've never seen anything like that in my life. I almost drove the car off the highway and ended both of our futures. Now, what pisses me off is because it just really pisses me off because my penis is seven inches, three fourths, eight when it's warm, pretty girthy. I'm sure in the size department, I'm sure in the size department, my penis has gotten rave reviews. So how much bigger than seven and three fourthfourths inches was this man's penis? What made the man's penis look like she had on 3D glasses? So because of this situation, I am traumatized, and I may always be traumatized,
Starting point is 01:05:32 and the reason I know I'm jealous of men with huge penises is because this is the last time I was jealous. This is actually this weekend. Yeah, there's some walls you just won't hit. Yeah, I follow comedians some more, and she posted a pic of Will Smith and August Alsina, and August had on some Speedos. And in my mind,
Starting point is 01:05:52 I immediately started hating on Young August. I did. In my mind, I said he had his pants stuffed with toilet tissue or something. He had like a cup on. He had a prosthetic penis. I convinced myself in my head that it was fake, and he was just doing it for the gram, and if you ask me right now, I have no problem repeating
Starting point is 01:06:08 those lies because I am a jealous-ass envious hater of men with big penises, and it's something I will probably never get over because I will never waste my therapist's time talking about something like that. That would make sense, right? As long as your jaw works, you'll be okay. There you go. Those guys would be so happy.
Starting point is 01:06:24 Wait, ho. Seven inches, three-fourths, eight inches when it's warm, like summertime. Like right now when it's over 90 degrees, I'm eight inches all day. Pretty girthy. That's a nice, that's a good penis, bro. You don't have to prove anything to us, bro. As a woman, that's not somebody you can't leave alone. There's certain guys you just can't leave alone, and that's not, you know, it's like whatever.
Starting point is 01:06:43 It's okay, shorty. You can just leave eight inches on the table? Yeah, I mean. Youy you could just leave eight you could just leave eight inches on the table yeah i mean it'll make me believe you can just leave eight inches on the table i don't believe you can walk away from that but there's certain ones you're just like all right are they facebook friends still no i'm gonna tell you something i did say last week it's so funny we having this conversation last week my homegirl dolly my homegirl ashley and my wife. And I did say I was drinking too. I said, I'm going to get that n***a killed. That's how triggered I am by this.
Starting point is 01:07:10 Goodness gracious. Just randomly, I started talking about that. Because, you know, they were just having all these conversations about August and Will and big penises and this and that. I'm going to get him smoked. You are a big penis. He'll probably block that bullet with his penis. Well, let's go to the phone lines. 800-585-1051.
Starting point is 01:07:30 Hello? Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. Your name is DJ Envy. Correct. Okay. What the hell are you jealous of, sir? When's the last time you've been jealous, DJ Envy? Of somebody not really jealous.
Starting point is 01:07:46 I don't really get jealous of people. People inspire me. Like, Swizz Beatz, he's probably one of the biggest people, and I love having conversations with Swizz. But jealous? I remember when Trey Songz was hollering at Gia, like, who's that? And you were like, whoa, whoa, whoa, hold up. I wasn't jealous, though.
Starting point is 01:08:01 I mean, that's funny. That's funny, but that's not jealousy. Maxwell. I remember Maxwell. Your wife says sometimes she pictures Maxwell instead of you. She didn't say that, but I don't get jealous. It's all fun and games. It's all fun and games. So you realize why they call Trey, Mr. Steal your girl. But I think what you said is very important to me when that jealousy and that envy rises up in you. Like when you see something that somebody else has, you're like, damn. You can either react one of two ways. You can be like, yo, I want that.
Starting point is 01:08:29 How did that person get that? Or you can say, I know if that person got that, my blessing is on its way. Yeah, I don't know. Unless it's a bigger penis. Yeah, you can't just give it up. Yo, yo, yo, yo. And I think that's the reason I'm not jealous of Trey or Maxwell.
Starting point is 01:08:44 I got a big penis, so Charlamagne, I know. But anyway, let's go to the phone line. Hello, who's this? Hi, my name is Darrell. Hey, Darrell, what's one thing you're jealous of? We found out that Charlamagne is jealous of big penises. So if you have a big penis, he's pretty jealous of you, brother. Okay. Okay. Well, anyway, I'm dealing right now with this guy at my college.
Starting point is 01:09:10 He's dating this girl I like, and he's in a frat. It's not a good frat, and the guy's toxic, and it just infuriates me. Why is he toxic? I'm just curious. So he drinks a lot. He parties. And his spread is just really notorious on campus for, you know, a bunch of stuff. And I just think that she has a lot of potential. And she's just wasting it with a guy like him.
Starting point is 01:09:42 Bro, you sound like a hater. I'm not going to lie. You definitely sound like a hater. But you're admitting you're jealous. So that's where like a hater. I'm not going to lie. Definitely sound like a hater. But you're admitting you're jealous, so that's where the hate comes from. I understand. That man probably ain't doing nothing in his frat. He's not doing nothing in his frat that y'all not doing in y'all frat. So stop it. He's probably a straight-A student.
Starting point is 01:09:56 Yep. Oh, I'm not in the frat. Oh, whatever. He not doing nothing in that fraternity that y'all not doing on campus. You just mad that he got that girl. That's all. He a little jealous. Well, I don't drink or smoke or do anything. Oh, so you think you better than him because you don't drink or smoke?
Starting point is 01:10:11 Is that what you're using? He's toxic because he drinks and smokes. My goodness. 800-585-1051. We're asking, what are you jealous of? Call us up right now. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning.
Starting point is 01:10:21 Good morning. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. We're asking, what are you jealous of? All right, now this comes from Charlamagne giving Donald Trump donkey of the day. That's right, because, you know, he constantly hates on President Barack Obama, and we all know jealousy is a form of hatred built on insecurity.
Starting point is 01:10:57 Like, last time I was jealous, honestly, was listening to, you know, my homegirls and my wife, and, you know, they was reminiscing about big penises in their life. And I saw August Alsina come across my timeline, you know what I mean? Because comedians from Moore posted a picture of him. So I started hating. But here's the thing. I need that hurt.
Starting point is 01:11:16 You know what I'm saying? Because pain helps you to refocus. You know what I mean? So when you don't have that size and that girth. Nobody. Whoa. Jesus Christ. You know what?
Starting point is 01:11:26 This is triggering. Could y'all stop, please? I try to be honest with y'all and tell y'all what I'm really jealous of and what really hurts my feelings. You said, I need that hurt. He's not hurting nobody, like you said. Let's go to the phone lines. Hello, who's this?
Starting point is 01:11:42 First of all, I don't see no bulge in your biker shorts, young man. All I see is a little fat ass poking out in the back, but I don't see nothing in the front. What? Talk about you got camel toe. You said it yourself earlier. You got camel toe. What grown man got camel toe?
Starting point is 01:11:55 Can I go to Human Resources? They don't have no camel toe. Do we have that on tape? Talking about my fat ass? But at least you've been noticed. Angel Lee, send Envy that picture of August Alsino and August Alsino in the Speedos and show him what he should look like in those bike shorts.
Starting point is 01:12:09 Why you ask her? I know you got the pic in your phone. That's the fact. I deleted it. You got it in your phone. Hello, who's this? I muted it. I muted it.
Starting point is 01:12:18 Hello, who's this? Elaine. Hey, Elaine. Good morning. What's one thing that you're jealous of? So yesterday, my daughter showed me on Instagram the little young lady who got the Lamborghini. And so I told her, she's not even on that.
Starting point is 01:12:32 She got all this makeup on. And my daughter was like, but mom, you take pictures without makeup too. And I was like, you're right. I'm hating. Because I used to have a body like that. And Trina was, I grew up on Trina. She tried to tell me to use my body, but I decided to take my behind like that. And Trina was, I grew up on Trina. She tried to tell me to use my body, but I decided to take my behind the scenes.
Starting point is 01:12:53 I could be on Instagram, karaoke, rap songs out there, get paid for taking pictures. I'm mad at my life choices. Damn. Damn. Okay, that's good. She acknowledged it. Like, all right, you're right. I'm hating.
Starting point is 01:13:01 You got to acknowledge it. Just acknowledge it. It's a natural emotion. Hello, who's this? My name is Alan. Alan, good morning. Good morning. How y'all doing today?
Starting point is 01:13:10 I'm doing all right. Now, we're talking about one thing you're jealous of. Why are you sending that picture? She just triggered the group chat. That's what you need to look like in your biker shorts, Envy. If you don't look like that, then you need to stop bragging. I got pads in my biker shorts, by the way. But go ahead.
Starting point is 01:13:28 Oh, so you padded it. No, it's gel pads, so when you ride it, it doesn't hurt your ass. But anyway, go ahead, sir. KY. KY. Not that kind of gel, you ass. Go ahead, sir. My name's Allen.
Starting point is 01:13:40 I'm from Flint, and I'm jealous of anybody that got clean water, because we still ain't got clean water in our city. I ain't mad at y'all for having it, but they still need to do something about what we got going on. Okay, that's a valid reason. Yeah, but that's nothing to be jealous of. That's your right. That's nothing to be jealous of.
Starting point is 01:13:58 That's your right as an American citizen. They owe you clean water. Like, I'm not owed a big penis, but they owe you clean water. Right. I'm just trying to get it, but they owe you clean water. Right. I'm just trying to get it together for my people. I feel you. Hello, who's this? Angela put this picture of August in the group chat,
Starting point is 01:14:13 and Daniel, our producer, put fake, and I replied with very fake. You guys are jealous. That hate is real. You guys are jealous. Hello, who's this? Courtney. Hey, Courtney, good morning. Good morning. Now, what are jealous. Hello, who's this? Courtney. Hey, Courtney. Good morning. Good morning. Now,
Starting point is 01:14:28 what are you jealous of, if anything? Okay, well, I was, but not anymore. So, it was a real funny situation. I was with my ex-fiance for 13 years. He wound up cheating on me in 2018. So, the person that I was cool with, she's like,
Starting point is 01:14:43 I don't know why you're so heartbroken. We knew he's been cheating on you, da-da-da-da. But nobody told me, supposedly they knew, right? A week, maybe about a week or so later, her man of two years, he was all good to her. You know, they were flaunting their relationship on Facebook. I was like, oh, that's cool. And they were, you know, going places and doing fun things. And then about a week or two after that, she caught him cheating on her.
Starting point is 01:15:09 Wow. I like that little laugh. That little evil laugh. Like, ha, ha, ha. Jealousy is just a form of hatred built on insecurity. Everybody's getting their insecurities out this morning. I respect it. So what's the moral of the story?
Starting point is 01:15:23 You guys saw the other angles I sent so you could see? No, I stopped. I'm not looking anymore. I'm not looking anymore. Why, Envy? That jealousy starting to creep up in you? Huh? You starting to look at August's print and saying, hmm.
Starting point is 01:15:37 No, because I feel like it's a human resource issue. And I feel very uncomfortable with these pictures that you guys are sending me right now. No camera till there. Listen, the moral of the story is jealousy is when you count someone else's blessings instead of your own. So when you find yourself jealous of what someone else has, just count your own blessings. That's exactly why I know my penis size. Very small. All right.
Starting point is 01:16:00 We got rumors on the way? Yes, we are going to be talking about T.I. and these snitching allegations. You know, he's going at it back and forth with 50 Cent, so he's finally explained what's really good. All right, we'll get into that next. Keep it locked. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning.
Starting point is 01:16:15 The Breakfast Club. She's spilling the tea. This is The Rumor Report with Angela Yee on The Breakfast Club. Yes, so T.I. was on with Fat Joe and he talked about a variety of things, including the snitching accusations against him. You know, T.I. and 50 Cent are, I guess, going back and forth about this versus challenge. So 50 Cent has been really getting under T.I.'s skin, talking about him being a snitch.
Starting point is 01:16:48 So here's what T.I. had to say. I told my attorneys, ain't no cooperation. Cooperation is off the table. But anything else they talking about, I want to hear. So they came back and was also like, okay, well, we want to use you to help young kids keep from making the same mistakes as you did. And then it has some about a commercial in the plea agreement now much what they wanted me
Starting point is 01:17:09 to do was they want me to stand in front of some police got there and talk like I like I ain't gonna do that so it got down to the last day before I had to turn in like all of my community served my thousand hours in order to be eligible for the downward departure and And motherf***er said, well, s***, you still got to do this job. There's no such thing as a secret snitch. Like, if Tim had snitched, there'd be paperwork on T.I. snitching. It's just not.
Starting point is 01:17:36 It doesn't exist. I feel like T.I. has always been telling this story about how this Crime Stoppers commercial happened, but you know how things re-come up on the internet. People might not have heard it the first few times he told it, so here we are again. Now he also makes it clear he's never been an informant.
Starting point is 01:17:52 Here's what he said. Tippers never gave any information to any form of law enforcement to get any man any amount of time for any crime, period. And what's wrong with Crime Stoppers? Like, think about it. That young girl in Atlanta, eight years old, got shot and killed, what was that, last weekend, you know.
Starting point is 01:18:10 And you think people don't know who the perpetrator of that crime was? That one-year-old who got shot in Brooklyn? Don't you think somebody need to be calling the police on those people? Don't you want to get people like that off the street? Like, that is what that, if you watch the Crime Stoppers commercial, that's what the Crime Stoppers commercial was for. It was for people who are out there doing things to, if I'm not mistaken,
Starting point is 01:18:28 it said mothers and kids. Mothers, kids, fathers, sons. Everybody. Everybody not in the street. People don't go by these dumbass street rules, you know, okay? Some people actually do call the police and report your stupid ass for doing stupid things. I don't see the problem with it. Trust and believe.
Starting point is 01:18:46 If I hear anything about who killed that one-year-old, I'm telling. Okay? All right. Now, T.I. also talks about being the king of the South and why he is. What makes you the king of the South? Because I said so. And ain't nobody motherfucking disputed it successfully. First of all, the term king of the South never existed before Tip said it.
Starting point is 01:19:08 If everybody before me felt they were the King of the South, they would have said it. And if anybody after me wanted the title of King of the South, they came and took it. It's simple. Out-rap me, kick my ass, or goddamn just show me that I ain't dope. Now, I'm going to be honest show me that I ain't dope.
Starting point is 01:19:26 Now, I'm going to be honest with you. I don't understand why Tip's credentials are even being questioned musically. The man has had an immaculate career, I have told y'all for years. Tip is in my top five of all time. Not too many people have a better first five out of six albums than Tip. I'm serious, trap music, urban legend, king, paper trail. I didn't really love T.I. versus T.I.P., but those five, I'm serious, Trap Music, Urban Legend, King, Paper Trail, there's not too many
Starting point is 01:19:50 rappers that have a better five albums than Tip. T.I. is dope, and it always has been. I can't even believe people even questioning that. Well, you know, anything you say, there's always going to be somebody that's going to debate it. Absolutely.
Starting point is 01:20:05 Now, 50 Cent, anything you say, there's always going to be somebody that's going to debate it. Absolutely. That's life. Now, 50 Cent, as we all know, you know, he executive produced Pop Smoke's album, Shoot for the Stars, Aim for the Moon, and it was a number one album. So that's a celebration for that right there, even though he was tragically killed in February. But one of the things that 50 Cent discusses is actually working with Pop Smoke's team, and here's what he said to Billboard. The parties involved aren't necessarily doing it for the same reasons I'm doing it,
Starting point is 01:20:33 being invested in financially. You ain't taking no bread from this. I'm doing it only based on the culture and my relationship with Pop Smoke. That's it. Things happen, not with all malice or with bad intentions. It's just,
Starting point is 01:20:48 I wouldn't be working with these people. As soon as I noticed that the record is positioning itself as number one, I feel like I didn't know. Interested. He's not going to work with them anymore. Yeah, I don't know what happened
Starting point is 01:20:59 behind the scenes at all. So I don't know what experience he had, but he said this wasn't about the money for him. So I can't know what experience he had, but you know, he said this wasn't about the money for him, so I can definitely say I respect that. The project is dope. The project is really, really dope. The album is dope. They put together a great project. And what
Starting point is 01:21:15 would there be for 50 to work on after this? Like, is there more Pop Smoke vocals lying around? That's a good question. Alright, now, speaking of Pop Smoke, four people have been charged with his murder in the Hollywood Hills home invasion killing. Two men and two teenage boys were charged yesterday,
Starting point is 01:21:34 and that was for breaking into the home where Pop Smoke was staying and fatally shooting him during that robbery that happened in February. The adult defendants are 19-year-old Corey Walker and Keiondre Rogers. They're 19 and 18 years old. They could face a death penalty if they're convicted on the allegation that the murder occurred during a burglary. And the other two teen defendants are ages 17 and 15, and they're facing one count of murder and robbery.
Starting point is 01:22:00 Well, I don't feel sorry for them whatsoever. They took that young man's life for no reason at all, it seems like. And, you know, that's what happens. The energy you put out is the energy you get back. Like, they have to deal with the consequences of their actions. So I don't have any sympathy, no remorse, no nothing for them. Nothing. All right.
Starting point is 01:22:20 Now, I don't know if when I was on vacation, you guys talked about SZA and her tweets about catching her ex effing her homegirl from the back at a house party. Did you all talk about that? No. She discussed it on Twitter. Well, she told that story a couple days ago, but then Kiki Palmer weighed in.
Starting point is 01:22:39 And so what happened is SZA told her story, and she discussed it. She said, I checked every single room in the house, and they were in the last one. OMG, what's sick is she invited me to the party. And so she walked in on her ex with her homegirl. Well, Kiki Palmer chimed in and said, been there except it was a man love.
Starting point is 01:22:57 Now get into it. So I guess she walked in on her ex having sex with a man. Look at Envy. Envy gets so excited when he hear that. He want to hear more about this story. I just said what? Any details? You didn't say what.
Starting point is 01:23:10 You said what? I said what? Any more details, E? Anything else? You want the details here? Envy can't wait to interview Kiki Palmer again. Now tell me about that story when you got caught, when you caught your man with another man.
Starting point is 01:23:26 No, I'm good. Okay. It's interesting. I want to know. Like what does that feel like? What do you say? You know, what happens in that situation? Do you walk out?
Starting point is 01:23:37 Do you interrupt them? I don't know. What do you do? I haven't had to walk in on anybody. Well, that's a lie. I'll tell that story another day. But it wasn't a man. Yeah? I haven't had to walk in on anybody. Well, that's a lie. I'll tell that story another day. But it wasn't a man. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:23:48 Yeah, it's pretty stupid to walk in a room when you see two people having sex and say, what are y'all doing? You know exactly what they're doing. You got eyes, don't you? Use me. Who slept with you down here? Well, I climbed in the window. I didn't just walk in.
Starting point is 01:24:02 Oh, you climbed in the window. What? And they weren't having sex. He was, you know, she was just naked in the bed and he was sitting on the edge in the window. I didn't just walk in. Oh, you climbed in the window. And they weren't having sex. He was, you know, she was just naked in the bed and he was sitting on the edge of the bed. But I assume they had had sex. Hmm. All right.
Starting point is 01:24:13 All right. Well, anyway, I'm Angela Yee and that is your rumor report. Okay. All right. Thank you, Miss Yee. Revolt, we'll see you guys tomorrow. Everybody else, the People's Choice Mix is up next.
Starting point is 01:24:23 Get your request in. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. Now, Yee, welcome back. You didn't make it to Jamaica, right? No, did not make it to Jamaica, but I actually
Starting point is 01:24:38 had an amazing week off. I went to go see Dave Chappelle host a comedy special that he's doing, and he's doing this whole documentary for Netflix. So shout out to my girl, Ricky Hughes, who's actually on the production team for that. She was out there. Shout out to Donnell Rawlings, who invited me to come out.
Starting point is 01:24:54 Never heard of him. I invited myself, for real. He called me and I was like, how come you didn't invite me to this Dave Chappelle thing? And he was like, yeah, you could come, come on. And not only did I come, I brought my friends with me. And everybody treated us amazing. We got tested for coronavirus
Starting point is 01:25:07 before we could even participate anything. So Talib, Kweli, and Mos Def were filming their podcast out there as well. Quest Love was there. Tiffany Hattis was there. She performed. Michael Che performed. Mo Amor performed.
Starting point is 01:25:19 Donnell performed, of course. It was just Common performed. Erykah Badu performed. It was just a lot going on, and we had a really good time. They were very hospitable, so thank you so much to Dave Chappelle, to his wife Elaine, for holding us down and taking care of us and making sure that
Starting point is 01:25:34 our vacation was still really, really amazing. Even though we couldn't go to Jamaica, I think this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to do something. We can go to Jamaica later when it's safe to go, but here we did feel safe. Everybody had to have their wristbands on to show they got tested. People who were staying had to keep on getting tested to make sure they didn't have coronavirus. And if you tested positive, they had a whole hotel set to the side with 20 rooms reserved so that if anybody tested
Starting point is 01:25:57 positive, they would have to go there and quarantine for 14 days. And what about you and Orlando? Did you test negative? Yeah, we all tested negative. And all of y'all came from New York? No. Jasmine and Ingrid came from LA. Me, Sanja Dean, and Sarah, my realtor, we came from New York. And all of those are coronavirus hotspots,
Starting point is 01:26:19 by the way. And then y'all went to Orlando, right? Yeah, then we went to Orlando. Shout out to my girl, Koya, 104.5, out there in Orlando. And we didn't even leave the hotel, though. We went there. First of all, there was about 12 people on the flight, and that was it. And then we got to Orlando, went straight to the hotel,
Starting point is 01:26:37 and in the hotel, did not leave. The hotel was only at, they said, 20% capacity. So it was all social distancing. The only place you could take off your mask was at the pool, but everything was so spread out. And all we did was go to the pool every day, relax, and then eat food in the room.
Starting point is 01:26:54 Okay. It was nice. I'm sorry, but like I needed some sun. I needed a pool. I don't have a pool here. I was just like Ohio was great, but, you know, it's the one vacation that we've had since last year and I was like, I just need a pool here. I was just like, Ohio was great, but you know, it's the one vacation that we've had since last year. And I was like, I just need a little sun and a pool. All right.

But also know that jealousy
Starting point is 01:28:56 is when you count someone else's blessings instead of your own. Breakfast club, bitches! You all finished or y'all done? Had enough of this country?
