Starting point is 00:00:00 Had enough of this country? Ever dreamt about starting your own? I planted the flag. This is mine. I own this. It's surprisingly easy. 55 gallons of water, 500 pounds of concrete. Or maybe not. No country willingly gives up their territory. Oh my God.

That's what my podcast

It's a chance to sit down with my guests and dive even deeper into their stories, their journeys, and the thoughts that arise once we've hit the pavement together. Listen to Post Run High on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. As a kid, I really do remember having these dreams and visions, but you just don't know what is going to come for you. Alicia shares her wisdom on growth, gratitude, and the power of love. I forgive myself. It's okay.

Starting point is 00:01:51 I love coming here. I'm never not going to come here. You guys are good to me. I'm a time. I'm always going to be good to you. A lot of people in the hip hop generation, the Breakfast Club is where people get the information on the topics, on the artists and everything like that.
Starting point is 00:02:02 In that aspect, radio is still important. The Breakfast Club. When my name come up, respect it. Get in there. Because you started over, guy. Come on. Started over, so. Come on. Start it over. So, there you go. What the hell? Hold on.
Starting point is 00:02:35 One more time. Hold on. Duh. Okay, Angelina is there. Now, bring it back one more time. What happened to Envy? I was waiting for him. We're going to get this right. We're going to act like
Starting point is 00:02:45 we've been doing this for nine years and some change. So no Envy? Good morning, U.S. Day in the world. 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, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo. yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo.
Starting point is 00:03:06 Good morning, Angelina. Why does it sound like... What happened to him? I don't know, but why does it sound like we underwater? It does? It sounds like we're underwater. Mine sounds fine. Really?
Starting point is 00:03:16 Let me tell you, I'm having problems. So, you know, I got a new router yesterday and I'm trying to log on to things, but I don't remember the password. Oh, that sucks. That's the worst feeling in the world. That's why it's almost better to, like, you know how they ask you if you want to save your password on all your devices? It's better just to say yes. It's better to say yes, I saved it all.
Starting point is 00:03:37 I'm trying to log on to Revolt, but then I don't know what's going on. And the problem is that we just have so many different things we have to log on to every single morning. It's just, you know. I know I'm not crazy. I don't know, but it sounds like we underwater. It sounds like chicken is frying. It sounds like popcorn is popping. Now, mine sounds fine.
Starting point is 00:04:00 You don't hear that? It sounds fine to me over here. So, nope. Oh. It sounds okay to me. So, is Envy asleep or he can't connect? No, no, no. He's having technical difficulties.
Starting point is 00:04:11 That's why I'm kind of over-broadcasting from home, even though I like broadcasting from home because I like being with the family. But I'm kind of over-broadcasting from home. I'd rather be in the studio at this point. I'm not going to lie. That's how I feel today. I don't know how I feel tomorrow. I don't even know-broadcasting from home. I'd rather be in the studio at this point. I'm not going to lie. That's how I feel today. I don't know how I feel tomorrow. I don't even know how I feel the next hour.
Starting point is 00:04:29 But at this moment, I'd rather be in the studio. All right, I just logged on to Revolve. This is crazy. Yeah, and I think maybe also in New York, well, maybe in New Jersey, but it was raining really hard. So sometimes I feel like when the weather is bad, I like that. It's raining?
Starting point is 00:04:46 It was. Like, I woke up at 2 o'clock this morning. I've been up ever since then because it was raining so hard. I know. I'm not either. I'm going crazy right now. I'm really hearing things. But we got front page news, G.
Starting point is 00:05:01 Why is it? Oh, front page news. Hold on. Yes. All kinds of news. We're going gonna talk about dr felchi we'll talk about new uh medicine that they've been testing medicine something that they've been testing that could potentially help if you're diagnosed with coronavirus all right we're gonna figure out these technical difficulties uh you know um yes we are a nationally syndicated morning show that's on in 100 plus markets.
Starting point is 00:05:26 We just don't sound like it at the moment. Okay? It's the world's most dangerous morning show, The Breakfast Club. Hey, morning everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. Good morning. Can everybody hear me now? We got it together? We got it together? Alright. All the technical
Starting point is 00:05:41 difficulties out of the way? Can you hear me? Yeah, we can hear you. I can hear everybody. You know, I was going to say that the way I can tell things are getting a little better is for the first time in six weeks when I went into the grocery store, they had toilet paper and bounty, whatchamacallit? That don't mean it. Paper towels.
Starting point is 00:06:01 Yeah, there you go. Paper towels. Paper towels and toilet paper. They haven't had that in six weeks. I went to Target a few days ago, and they had it. It was packed. Like, there you go. Paper towels. Paper towels and toilet paper. They haven't had that in six weeks. I went to Target a few days ago, and they had it. It was packed. Like, they had everything. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:06:10 I just mean that you came in when the shipment just came in. Yeah, you came at the right time. I told you to get your super. I went to the Acme around the corner, and they didn't have any on the same day. I told you to get your supermarket plug. And I'm going to tell you something. Your phone sounds like somebody knocking over furniture again.
Starting point is 00:06:29 Who, me? No, you. Oh, I do? Yeah. I bet. Well, you'll do front page news without me. Great. All right, let's get into front page news.
Starting point is 00:06:40 It's a mess out there, man. It's horrible. It's horrible. Still Corona in the forecast. It's still Corona out there, man. It's horrible. Still Corona in the forecast. It's still Corona out there in the forecast. Corona hasn't gone anywhere. Yeah, I don't know if there's anything to look forward to in the future just yet. You know what I'm saying?
Starting point is 00:06:55 You can turn the TV on and you can still see that the death rate is high. People are still getting sick. People are still getting sick. They do say, yes, we can't hear you. Let me see if you sound. Keep talking. No, I guess that was a rap no she I don't know what she's doing
Starting point is 00:07:10 but anyway well you know you know in New Jersey they're talking about this week and they're gonna open up the golf courses they're gonna open up
Starting point is 00:07:16 state parks I don't know if that's a great idea right now what do you think? I don't want all of that I need some essential things open like my goddamn barbershop okay I'm tired of walking around the house with a hat on, all right?
Starting point is 00:07:27 I want to take my wig off, you hear me? And let my head breathe. And this weekend's supposed to be very beautiful on the East Coast, so I guess that's the reason why they're going to open up the parks. But my problem is if you open up the parks and people are, you know, hanging out with each other, they're still saying social distancing, but you know what that means if they open up parks. People are going to be playing basketball, soccer, everything they possibly could be playing. And then what happens if they continue to pass it on and bring that back home? Does it
Starting point is 00:07:49 spike or do they know something we don't know? I'm here, guys. Can you hear me now? Oh, thank God. Yes. Okay. I think they know something we don't know. So the FDA is issuing an emergency authorization for remdesivir. It's a drug that can possibly be used not as a cure but to help you out.
Starting point is 00:08:09 Now, Dr. Fauci, when he was on The Breakfast Club, actually talked about this drug a couple of weeks ago. Listen to this. They're saying there's this experimental drug called remdesivir or something that could actually really help with the treatment. So the situation is that there are a number of drugs that are in clinical trials right now. None of them have been proven definitively to be effective in coronavirus disease. And as soon as we get the data that proves that it works, you let everybody know about it and you let it be available. But you don't want somebody taking the drug that somebody
Starting point is 00:08:41 kind of has a feeling that it works when it really doesn't. All right. Well, it looks like things have changed a lot since then because they are saying now that this drug does appear to be helping people, and they are ordering an emergency amount of remdesivir to help treat people who actually have been diagnosed with coronavirus. The drug maker says they have enough supply to treat at least 140,000 patients as of now. I'm telling you, after they did the antibody test, they did antibody test.
Starting point is 00:09:08 They realized more people had it than they originally thought, which showed them that it's less fatal than they originally thought. And, you know, they did the right thing and shut everything down because they weren't quite sure what it was. But I think after that information, they're like, oh, it is kind of safe to get back out there and frolic. But they know now they done it is kind of safe to get back out there and frolic. But they know now they done frightened everybody. And ain't nobody getting back out there without some type of treatment or the vaccine.
Starting point is 00:09:31 And being that the vaccine won't be available until late next year, here goes the treatment. So people feel comfortable going out and about. But what they are saying is it just kind of shortens the duration of coronavirus. And it's been pretty effective in early results from the trial that they did. So you mean like instead of like 14 days, you'd be down pretty effective in early results from the trial that they did. So you mean like, instead of like 14 days, you'd be down for like four,
Starting point is 00:09:48 six or seven or something like that? Is that what they're saying? But so you could still die, but it just, it shortens the time. Well, not saying that,
Starting point is 00:09:55 well, no, no, no. These are saying that like, effectively, five days of treatment appeared as effective
Starting point is 00:10:01 as 10 days. So I guess you just get better quicker because you know, some people have, yeah. Alright. I'm telling you that's a great sign and as long as there's some type of treatment out there, people
Starting point is 00:10:12 will feel more comfortable being out and about. That's the truth to the matter. Alright, well that is your front page news. I think we got all the technical difficulties out the way. We good Ye Talks? I hope so. Hey, can we do this off the air? No, I'm just making sure because we have to do it on air.
Starting point is 00:10:27 That way we can tell. Get it off your chest. Our listeners ride with us, you know what I'm saying, 100% through the good, the bad and the ugly. So, you know, yeah, we can do a live check of the technical stuff on the air. Check one, check two. Hello, everybody good? I think we're finally good.

As a kid, I really do remember having these dreams and visions, but you just don't know what is going to come for you. Alicia Keys opens up about conquering doubt, learning to trust herself and leaning into her dreams. I think a lot of times we are built to doubt the possibilities for ourselves. For self-preservation and protection. It was literally that step by step.
Starting point is 00:13:29 And so I discovered that that is how we get where we're going. This increment of small, determined moments.

Starting point is 00:17:38 It's your time to get it off your chest, whether you're mad or blessed. You better have the same energy. We want to hear from you on The Breakfast Club. Hello, who's this? It's Mac from Boston. What's up, Envy? What's up, bro?
Starting point is 00:17:49 Get it off your chest. Basically, my mom's a nurse at Brigham and Women's in Boston. It's one of the biggest hospitals. And basically, she's saying the patients that's being admitted are not getting any care. The doctors and nurses are just basically petrified. Like, there's, like, no vaccine. There's nothing. So it's like these people come to the hospital basically to get left to die.
Starting point is 00:18:17 So what do you mean? Like, people come there and they quarantine them at the hospital instead of quarantining them at home? No, it's like they'll go there, she said, and then get checked out, whatever. And then basically, like, they'll get put in a room. And then, like, they won't be seen. Do you get what I'm saying? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. You know why?
Starting point is 00:18:38 I don't know why, but I think I would assume that a lot of the healthcare workers probably are still frightened. You know what I mean? Sure, absolutely. No one knows what's going on. Yeah, nobody knows what's going on when there's no vaccine, when there's no treatment. They don't even know what to tell them. Man, we just got to stay prayed up. That's how I look at it. Always, baby. Always.
Starting point is 00:18:57 All that. Thank you, brother, for checking in, man. Thank you, man. You're an inspiration to me. I'm a black entrepreneur. Designer. You could an inspiration to me. I'm a black entrepreneur, designer. You can follow me at The Message Apparel. I do it for us. It's all about the culture.
Starting point is 00:19:13 Okay. My brother, I'm going to check you out. Good morning. Get it off your chest. Good morning. Good morning. Good morning. I just want to say thank you. I've been riding with you guys, of course, still, you know, getting up for my remote working life,
Starting point is 00:19:28 quarantining. I just want to say, you know, you guys have been doing a great job. Still flowing with y'all, even though y'all were standing like water this morning. Yeah, it was trash this morning. It was definitely technical difficulties. You got to understand, you got three different people broadcasting from three different houses,
Starting point is 00:19:42 you know what I'm saying, in three different locations. So, you know, it takes a lot to bring this together. So it's not going to always be perfect. Then we have somebody in the studio that has his own show he's pushing. So I think, you know, he's not that concerned. Trying to sabotage us. Word. Well, it's not easy working from home.
Starting point is 00:19:58 You know, I'm feeling the pain too. So thank you. You guys are doing a wonderful job. Thank you. Appreciate you. Let's go to one more. Hello, who's this? WMDC. Oh my goodness.
Starting point is 00:20:11 Good morning, Angela. I got a joke for you. Oh my gosh. Hi, Snack Man. I'm glad my mic's working now. Alright, let's hear your jokes. I know you've been doing a lot of funny stuff during this coronavirus pandemic at home. Don't make me throw up. And begin. Now that we got this face mask advisory,
Starting point is 00:20:28 I'm finding out things about myself that I did not know. Like, I'm really good at being a ventriloquist. Damn, Snackman, you trash, bro. Horrible, man. Snackman, you hate your life. Oh my gosh.
Starting point is 00:20:44 Snackman, Snackman. We never you hate your life. Oh, my gosh. Like, Snack Man, Snack Man. I didn't get it. We never get it, G. We never get it. Don't you get that? We never get his jokes. Snack Man needs to say, you know what I'm saying at the end of every joke, just so people can be like, no, we don't know what you're saying.
Starting point is 00:20:56 It's actually kind of funny that it's not that funny. No, it's not. It's really not. No. There's nothing humorous about Snack Man. Nothing at all. Get it off your chest. 800-585 Nothing at all. Get it off your chest. 800-585-1051.
Starting point is 00:21:08 Get it off your chest. We got rumors on the way, Yee. Yes, and I'm excited about this because the ladies put out some music yesterday. Yes, Beyonce hopped on Meg Thee Stallion's Savage and Doja Cat's Say So remix with Nicki Minaj. So we'll talk about that. All right, we'll get into that. When we come back, don't move. It's The Breakfast Club.
Starting point is 00:21:26 Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. Let's get to the rumors. Let's talk Disney World. It's about time.
Starting point is 00:21:40 What's going on? Rumor report, rumor report. This is The Rumor Report. Talk to Report. This is the Rumor Report. With Angela Yee on The Breakfast Club. Yes, as we were telling you that Disney World is talking about their plans for reopening, their phase one, phase two. We don't know when that's
Starting point is 00:21:55 going to actually happen, but the NBA is throwing around a possible way to return to action, and that would be at Disney World, possibly. Now, one possibility is that they will go to the Walt Disney World Resort property in Orlando and have a bubble league. That's where players will be playing in empty stadiums, staying isolated at hotels when not playing. So this is an idea they've been talking about for quite some time right now. What they would need is
Starting point is 00:22:20 12 on-site basketball courts, two of which would be broadcast ready at the ESPN Wide World of Sports Complex. Enough hotel rooms for every player, coach, official, TV crew members and more. Also, nearby medical facilities for injuries. They would need restaurants, swimming pools and other amenities so that they have stuff to do while they're there. Something that's very private so it will be easily blocked off from the public. And that could be the way it could happen. Why Disney World? Why is Disney World the hub for everybody to just convene after a global pandemic or during a global pandemic?
Starting point is 00:22:53 Well, I think for the NBA, because it has all of these possibilities, like it has the basketball courts. It has everything there. It has the hotels. It has the restaurants on site. And so it would be a lot easier because, you know, they have all those huge resorts there. So that would be a way for them to kind of contain themselves but still be able to play. I do hope they get to finish the NBA season, though,
Starting point is 00:23:14 because I have been alive long enough to see shortened versions of an NBA season, but it's always shortened versions to where it starts in the middle and they get to the end. It'd be weird just to watch it end in the middle and they get to the end. It'd be weird just to watch it end in the middle and they don't crown a champion. Right. Yeah, I want to see this year close out. Now let's discuss Russell Simmons.
Starting point is 00:23:32 He is addressing the HBO Max on the record documentary that is expected to air on May 27th. Now we've been talking about this and we told you about former Def Jam A&R Drew Dixon sharing her story about how Russell Simmons allegedly had a pattern of harassment when it came to her. And here is that trailer. Drew was a young, powerful something who cares so much about this music. And so when Def Jam called me, I was like, Russell Simmons wants to offer you this job as the director of A&R at Def Jam.
Starting point is 00:24:04 I could not have scripted it better. That's one of the beautiful things about the music industry. There was a lot of mobility for women, but at the same time, there was tremendous amount of sexual harassment. You didn't get a lot of sympathy for that. That was considered the price of admission. While Russell Simmons is responding, he said the story is at 25 to 40 years old. He gave this statement to Hip Hop DX. He said, I have taken nine lie detector tests, seven by the president of the California Polygraph Association. Any reporter with any interest in the truth can find it out and they are starting to do so. God will sort that out.
Starting point is 00:24:37 A lie can get so big that the truth is forced out. I have constantly taken ownership of having been a massively unconscious playboy or by today's more accurate discrimination, a womanizer. But I have never been violent or done anything that that could be called illegal to any woman. So that is how he has responded. I mean, that's how those situations are right from both parties. Like, you know, the truth is the truth, regardless if nobody believes it. And a lie is a lie, regardless if everyone believes it. So everybody just got to tell their story.
Starting point is 00:25:06 All right. Netflix is creating an anthology series about social distancing. And so their job, they said as storytellers is to reflect reality. And in this new bizarre bewildering reality, we are all experiencing. We feel passionate about finding connection as we all remain at a distance, according to the producer.
Starting point is 00:25:22 So this series is going to tell stories about the current moment that we are living through right now so if you guys are here for that could be exciting and new music I just want to make sure we get into this because I know we're going to be playing Beyonce and Meg Thee Stallion the remix to Savage so here is
Starting point is 00:25:40 what Meg Thee Stallion had to say about being so excited when these two Houston ladies linked up. It's really crazy because like my mama was like a really huge fan of Beyonce. She used to make me watch a lot of Beyonce stuff. And it's like when I met her, I was like, oh my God. And I didn't want to be like, oh my God, Beyonce, me and my mama love you. Like this is crazy. I can't believe we meet. And it's just like, dog. Beyonce didn't even do a song with me.
Starting point is 00:26:09 I'm really, I've really only been out for like two years. This is the beginning of year number two. Like, Beyonce. Salute to Meg D'Estaia. Yeah, I'm glad she got that, man. I think that's dope for the city, man. And in 2018, she was here at our headquarters at Power 105. One with my little niece, Nyla Simone.
Starting point is 00:26:28 And she said, I pray to Jesus I get to do a song with Beyoncé one day. She said that was her dream collaboration. So to see that a couple years later is dope. We actually had that audio with Nyla Simone. Here you go. What are some dream collabs that you're trying to get? You have already had like a crazy year. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:26:43 What do you see or who do you see yourself working with in 2019? Well, we're going to pray to Jesus Christ that it happened happened but i really want to do a song with beyonce girl i love me some beyonce like that'll just be crazy like just two h time hotties like that'll be that'll be fire drop on the clues bombs for young nyla simone out here absolutely getting hot out here you know all right so later on we'll play a teaser from some new Doja Cat with Nicki Minaj. But, you know, this morning, you know, we're going to be playing playing Meg Thee Stallion Savage remix featuring Beyonce. I'm Angela Yee. And that is your rumor report. All right. Thank you, Miss Yee. Now, when we come back, we got front page news.
Starting point is 00:27:19 What are we talking about? Yes, we are going to be talking about what is happening with this coronavirus. Are we going to be opening up everything anytime soon? Golf courses in certain states are opening back up again. But is there potentially something that could help you if you have been diagnosed to actually make your time of sickness even shorter? We'll tell you about a possible medication that they said they've been testing that could be helpful. All right, we'll get into that next. Keep it locked. This is The Breakfast Club.
Starting point is 00:27:43 Good morning. What was happening? What was happening? I'm a savage. Savage. Savage. It's The Stallion. All right. That was Beyonce making The Stallion
Starting point is 00:27:56 with The Savage remix. I like that. Good morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. Let's get into some front page news. Where do we start with, Yee? Well,agne Tha Gow, we are The Breakfast Club. Let's get in some front page news.
Starting point is 00:28:06 Where do we start with, Yee? Well, the FDA is expected to issue an emergency authorization for the use of remdesivir. And that is a way to help speed up your recovery time from coronavirus. Here is Dr. Fauci speaking on it. Remdesivir has a clear-cut, significant, positive effect in diminishing the time to recover. What it has proven is that a drug can block this virus. Looking forward, this is very optimistic. Hey, man, they're trying to get people out there to reopen that economy,
Starting point is 00:28:39 and they got to make people feel comfortable. So you got to have some type of treatment on the market in order to do that, because there's damn sure no vaccine until late next year, right you got to have a treatment at least all right now workers who have been laid off might have to give up their unemployment benefits as states are starting to reopen so what's happening is you know some people might not feel like going back to work they don't feel like it's safe yet but you might have to give up those employment unemployment benefits if you don't go back to work if your job is open. So we're trying to figure that out. Some people could still remain eligible for unemployment under a special pandemic program that they created for those who are advised by a health
Starting point is 00:29:13 provider to self-quarantine or for people who are caring for children whose schools have closed. So those people might be able to qualify for benefits, but some states might interpret the guidelines differently. So it's really going to depend. So it's going to be difficult to see what happens next. Oh, didn't know if you guys were going to weigh in. I was thinking about this tweet that I saw yesterday from Derek Muhammad, and he said American unemployment is projected to reach 32 percent when things get back to normal. But black unemployment usually hovers at about double the national average. So what happens if nearly half of black America is out of work? That was a question he
Starting point is 00:29:50 posed last night that I was like really thinking about. Yeah. And more than 80% of coronavirus patients who were hospitalized in Georgia were black, according to a study, a new report for the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. That really shows some significant racial disparities that have been happening. And that report was published yesterday. So, you know, that's what I'm saying. We've got to still make sure that we stay safe amidst all of this. Now, in California, the governor has planned to order closure
Starting point is 00:30:21 of all state beaches and parks, according to a police memo, because, according to that, you know, the beaches have been too crowded. Thousands of people were packed on the beach. We saw pictures from that. And so people are still defying the stay-at-home order that could delay the whole state reopening. So right now they're saying,
Starting point is 00:30:37 let's just close all the state beaches and parks. Yeah, and I mean, listen, all coronavirus is exposing is all the underlying conditions that exist in the black community that were caused by systemic racism. You know, you have people living in these food deserts. You know, they have access. They don't have access to the best health care. You know, whether it's corona or diabetes or cancer or whatever, it's always going to hit the black community hardest just because we're the most vulnerable, period.
Starting point is 00:31:03 Now, L.A. is the first major city to offer free coronavirus testing for all residents. So that's the first major city that's going to do that. Those with symptoms will have the first priority, but everybody else will have access to this for free. And in Florida, the governor is... Why you say that? Because they said the people with symptoms will be first priority,
Starting point is 00:31:26 but then they always tell us that the asymptomatic people are the people that you have to really worry about, the people who don't have symptoms who are around people spreading it. I don't understand why everybody just can't get tested. Everybody just can't get tested. Why do I say it? It don't make no sense. Well, they said everybody will, but you just have first.
Starting point is 00:31:43 They're just saying you have first priority but they will test uh all residents have access gotcha i don't think anybody should have first priority i just think you should be able to get tested all right now the florida governor uh ron desantis has released more details about reopening parts of the state and he says his phase one reopening is going to start on may 4th schools will remain in distance learning. Visits to senior living facilities will remain prohibited. Elective surgeries can resume on May 4th. Restaurants can reopen if they offer outdoor seating with six feet worth of space between tables and indoor seating is capped at 25% capacity. And so are retail businesses. So bars, gyms and personal services like hairdressers will remain closed and churches will remain on voluntary social distancing and movie theaters will remain
Starting point is 00:32:29 closed as well. I just enjoy to open up the barbershops, man. I mean, that ain't gonna happen for a while, I don't think. But I was saying I could tell things are lightening up because now when I'm starting going to the supermarket, I'm starting going to Costco's or BJ's, you're starting to see toilet paper, you're starting to see paper towels, you're starting to see more and more supplies that before you couldn't find and now you're starting to see. Like yesterday when I seen paper towels, I was shocked. I was like, wow. Like I haven't seen them in
Starting point is 00:32:53 six weeks. I think you went on the right day. Yeah, you caught the grocery store plug on the right day, but then you also have to think how much times can a person wipe their ass? Because people should have enough toilet tissue at least until summer 2021. Because God, and people were buying a lot of toilet paper. They were.
Starting point is 00:33:10 About 40, 50 days ago. You know, I was really fortunate. My dad always gives me stuff from Costco and he already had given me all of this toilet paper. It's all one ply though. But he always gives me a whole bunch of toilet paper and paper towels. So I never actually had to buy any just because he's always dropping it off in my house anyway. So that was fortunate. Now, the governor of Michigan has announced tuition free educational program to benefit essential workers, which is amazing.
Starting point is 00:33:36 So that's going to be post-secondary educational opportunities for essential workers as they fight the coronavirus pandemic. It's called Futures for Frontliners. It's a path to opportunity for those essential workers, and it's very similar to the GI Bill that was offered to returning soldiers after World War II. So it'll be geared toward essential workers without college degrees, and it'll
Starting point is 00:33:55 make sure they have a tuition-free pathway to college and an opportunity to earn a technical certificate, associate degree, or even a bachelor's degree at universities. All right. Man, I froze. Hello?
Starting point is 00:34:12 Yeah, I froze for a second. We can hear you. We can hear you. The whole thing, everything just froze. All right. Well, that is. I thought you was having a stroke. No, everything just froze.
Starting point is 00:34:20 I couldn't hear nothing. I just froze for a second. Everything's starting to cut in and out. I'm like. I thought you was going to have a stroke Everything's talking. I'm like, I told you about that was broke live on air. I said, this is going to be good. Great.
Starting point is 00:34:30 Thank you. Thank you so much, Charlamagne. Well, that is your front page news. Now, when we come back, let's talk relationship advice.
Starting point is 00:34:37 800-585-1051. What happened with Gabrielle Union? Well, Gabrielle Union and Dwayne Wade were on Instagram Live with Steph Curry and Aisha Curry. And Gabrielle Union told a story about a time that she gave Aisha Curry and Steph Curry some advice about their relationship. I guess they must have been having a rough patch at the time. And she told them this. She was a thot in 98, back up for sure.
Starting point is 00:34:59 I was. Listen, I enjoyed my life. And that is the exact advice I gave. I used that as a young step at D. Wright's 25th birthday party. It all comes out. It all comes out. I'm so done. You guys, the likelihood of this working out is very low. And you should just wake up now and have sex with other people.
Starting point is 00:35:20 You looked at me and said, how old are you? All right. Alright, well, obviously that was some bad advice. So that's what we're asking. You got bad advice though. 800-585-1051. I got that advice too. Of course, Gia and I have been together since she was 15
Starting point is 00:35:37 and I was 16. And we were so close in doing everything together. People would always advise me, why you guys so close? You got a long life. Live your life. Y'all shouldn't be together. This, that, the other. I mean, five kids later, we've been married 18 years
Starting point is 00:35:50 and together 25 years. Thank God I didn't take somebody else's advice and leave or she leave me, you know? What about you? That's right, man. I remember somebody gave me terrible advice
Starting point is 00:36:00 to stay in a relationship that was terrible for me. And this guy I was dating, he would always be mad like if I took a picture with somebody and he would screenshot it that was terrible for me. And this guy I was dating, he will always be mad. Like if I took a picture with somebody and he would screenshot it and send it to me, it could be me hosting a party and me taking a picture with people. And he would be like, oh, that's what you're doing. And my friend was like, look, you got to respect, you know, how he feels about this. And maybe you shouldn't take pictures anymore. And maybe you shouldn't
Starting point is 00:36:20 host parties. And I was like, what? Like when you met me, I was doing this. I'm not going to stop doing this. I'm not going to not take a picture with the person because it's a guy. And, you know, I thought that was terrible advice. So I was glad that I broke up, but I was like, I'm not going to feel like I'm wrong in this situation. And I'm glad I didn't stay with that person because, you know, I think it would have been a nightmare for me to have to not do my job the way I want to. Right. What about you, Charlamagne? I think we've been talking about this for too long, so I'll talk about mine when we come back. All right. 800-585-1051. Call us up right now. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. We're talking the worst relationship advice you've got. The Breakfast Club. Is your country falling apart? Feeling tired? Depressed? A little bit revolutionary?

Be part of a great colonial tradition. The Waikana tribe own country. My forefathers did that themselves. What could go wrong? No country willingly gives up their territory.

As a kid, I really do remember having these dreams and visions, but you just don't know what is going to come for you.
Starting point is 00:39:13 Alicia Keys opens up about conquering doubt, learning to trust herself, and leaning into her dreams. I think a lot of times we are built to doubt the possibilities for ourselves. For self-preservation and protection, it was literally that step by step. And so I discovered that that is how we get where we're going. This increment of small, determined moments. Alicia shares her wisdom on growth, gratitude, and the power of love. I forgive myself. It's okay. Like grace. Have grace with yourself. You're trying your best and you're
Starting point is 00:39:50 going to figure out the rhythm of this thing. Alicia Keys, like you've never heard her before. Listen to On Purpose with Jay Shetty on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. Good morning. A lot of technical difficulties this morning. I ain't go front. But phone lines are open, 800-585-1051.
Starting point is 00:40:16 We were talking about Gabrielle Union and her advice. What's the story, Yee? Yeah, she was on live. It was a couple's live. It was her and Dwayne Wade alongside Aisha and Steph Curry. And she was talking about some advice that she gave to a younger Aisha Curry when, I guess, it must have been a rough patch years and years and years ago that Steph and Aisha were going through. And here's what she told her. She was a 598 back after show.
Starting point is 00:40:37 I was. Listen, I enjoyed my life. And that is the exact advice I gave. Aisha and a young Steph at D. Wright's 25th birthday party. It all comes out. I'm so done. You guys, the likelihood of this working out is very low, and you should just wake up now and have sex with other people. You looked at me and said, how old are you?
Starting point is 00:41:00 So obviously that was horrible advice, bad advice. You know, you realize things that work for you necessarily don't work for anybody else. I got the same advice. Like I said, I was with my wife since she was 15. I was 16. And people said that, hey, y'all look together in love too soon. You should, you know, live a little and do this and do that. And thank God that that didn't happen because I don't know where I would be five years later, 18 years married and 25 years, 26 years together.
Starting point is 00:41:26 So thank God I didn't listen to anybody. What about you? I think you meant five kids later. Five kids later, yeah. Yes. I think the worst advice that I can think of right now definitely came from my father. And this is when back in the day, way, way, way back in the day,
Starting point is 00:41:41 when I confronted my father about cheating on my mom. And he looked me in the eye and he laughed. I'll never forget it because we had an exercise bike in my room and he was riding an exercise bike and he goes, oh, he only got one girlfriend, huh? And he said, one day you're going to understand. And that confused the hell out of my young mind for quite a long time. And for the longest, I thought it was wrong to have one girlfriend so that always makes you that always would make me question you know the relationship I was in and always made me keep at least one thing on the side but technically that probably uh worked out for me because you know back in the day that one thing on the side became my wife so I don't know if that was good advice or bad advice I just know that it was very confusing. I've had quite a few therapy sessions about that over the past couple of years.
Starting point is 00:42:29 You said the one thing on your side was your wife? Well, yeah, because I was dating this other girl back in the day, and then I started kicking it with my wife. So I had both of them, and then I ended up with my wife. So maybe if my dad hadn't gave me that advice, to always have one thing on the side, I'd have never been with my wife. Wow. Maybe my dad hadn't gave me that advice, I'd always have one thing on the side. I'd never go with my wife. Wow.
Starting point is 00:42:47 Maybe my dad was right now that I think about it. My goodness. No, he wasn't right. No, that couldn't have been right. No, that's not right. That's not right. What are you talking about?
Starting point is 00:42:53 Even though it worked out for me, it wasn't right. No. What about you, Yee? I told you before, like, the worst advice I ever got was somebody told me to stay in a relationship with somebody that would every single time I would take a picture with somebody.
Starting point is 00:43:09 If it was a guy, he would screenshot it and send it to me and be upset and to be completely innocent pictures. Like if I was hosting a party and I didn't think it was a good idea to stay in that relationship. But my friend told me that I should and I should try to see it from his point of view. And I realized that I just couldn't live my life like that with somebody who didn't trust me, even though I wasn't doing anything to not be trusted. And the final straw was when he went through my phone and hid in the bathroom with it for no reason. And I just was like, I can't do this anymore.
Starting point is 00:43:36 Goodness gracious. What year was this if he was seeing the pictures? Because this had to be like a social media time, right? It had to be the last 12 years. Yeah, yeah yeah it definitely was it was probably about i would say like eight years ago oh damn eight years ago that this happened and i was very glad that we broke up and i also feel like you should never be in a relationship where you feel stressed out about it all the time and every little thing you do they're
Starting point is 00:43:59 always like questioning it and you're not even doing anything wrong because usually it means they're doing something wrong oh i, I'm sure he's listening. Good morning to him. All right, let's go to the phone lines. 800-585-1051. Hello, who's this? This is Nakia. We're talking about some of the worst advice
Starting point is 00:44:13 that you received relationship-wise. You got some? I was told by a friend to get back with my ex. He introduced me to a girl he was cheating on me with for four months. Nope. While I was out of town working with his child. What?
Starting point is 00:44:36 Yep. Why would she give you that advice? What was the reason for getting back together with somebody that was doing it? I have no clue, actually. People make mistakes. That's all she said. Mm-hmm. together with somebody that was doing it? I have no clue, actually. People make mistakes. That's all she said.
Starting point is 00:44:49 Mm-hmm. All right. Thank you, Mama, for calling. You're right. 800-585-1051. We're talking about some of the worst advice you received. We're talking relationship advice. Don't move. It's The Breakfast Club.

Starting point is 00:45:17 I was. Listen, I enjoyed my life. And that is the exact advice I gave. I used that at a young step at D. Wright's 25th birthday party. It all comes out. I'm so done. You guys, the likelihood of this working out is very low, and you should just break up now and have sex with other people.
Starting point is 00:45:38 You looked at me and said, how old are you? So we're asking 805-851051, what's some of the worst advice you received from somebody? Hello, who's this? It's your girl, Spicy S. Cajun, calling out of Brooklyn, New York. Hey, what's some of the worst advice you received? Wait, what's your name? You said Spicy A. Cajun?
Starting point is 00:45:55 Spicy S. Cajun from Brooklyn, New York. Oh, okay. Spicy S. Cajun. Okay. Now, what's some of the worst advice you received? Some of the worst advice I received, like, I guess when I was heartbroken, in the middle of, like, the worst breakup relationship from friends, you know, girlfriends that would give you advice,
Starting point is 00:46:12 was I guess don't worry about love life, don't worry about relationships, get your money, and just, you know, work hard, you know, as a dancer, coming from, as a dancer in New York City, you know, you can get that kind of advice sometimes. Girl, you've been hardworking, don't worry about it. Just get your money, get your dancer, coming from, as a dancer in New York City, you know, you get that kind of advice sometimes, girl, you've been hardworking already, but just get your money, get your money, get your money. And then, you know, you get your money so much to the point where now you kicked up, but you still by yourself.
Starting point is 00:46:32 And then, you know, as you, before you knew it, years flew, you know, and it's like, wow, I'm really by myself in a time thing. So, like, I think that was the worst, but, you know, I'm getting to it, y'all pay for me. Okay. Well, is't nobody praying for you. I'm wasting my prayers on that.
Starting point is 00:46:48 Hello. Hello, who's this? Don't be doing that. I'm not. Hello, who's this? Hi, this is Will. What's up, Will? Where you calling from, bro?

Starting point is 00:47:18 Oh, no, no, man, she's fine. No, she's about to get divorced. She don't even like him anyway. I'm like, yeah, I'm going to respect the relationship even if she don't. And the craziest story about it is I went to go tell her, you know, I don't want to be with you no more. I don't want to talk to you anymore. Her husband came, and she was like, you got my back?
Starting point is 00:47:38 I'm like, no. So she goes outside with a belt And I'm not lying She whooped him down the street With the belt He's running And she's got the belt Whooping him with it I'm like

Starting point is 00:50:08 I didn't know her. We would have gotten nasty. That's the rules of one night stand. Get nasty. Like what we want. Get nasty. Get nasty. I want to get nasty.
Starting point is 00:50:18 Okay, Charlamagne, go ahead. That baby would have been yours. So if I would know she was already pregnant, you know, she got pregnant the day before. Like, bless her by the... I would have gotten nasty. So if I would know she was already pregnant, you know, she got pregnant the day before, like, bless my d***, I would have gotten nasty.
Starting point is 00:50:29 We know what pregnant means, bro. That was graphic, sir. So what's the point of this story again? Yeah, I don't even understand. What's the point of this story? F***, it's getting nasty. So is it your baby or not? No.
Starting point is 00:50:43 I didn't ever mess with her, but my boy would have had me in that position. Oh, okay. Because she would have said it was your baby or not? No. I didn't ever mess with her, but my boy would have had me in that position. Oh, okay. Because she would have said it was your baby, and you wouldn't even know because you would have smashed it. You would have just believed it. Man, no, I wouldn't have believed that because I would have strapped up. I wouldn't have been under that.
Starting point is 00:50:58 You don't sound like the scrapbook type. Nah, you definitely don't sound like that. You definitely sound like the type that doesn't need a reason to go raw. Charlemagne, Charlemagne, I can count on one hand how many people got this raw vegan. How many? How many? Maybe like. See what I'm saying?
Starting point is 00:51:16 Maybe. Okay. How many guys? What? Come on, Dad. He's trying to play you. He's trying to play you, King. Oh, my goodness. All right. Thank you, thousand, man. He's trying to play you. He's trying to play you, King. Oh, my goodness.
Starting point is 00:51:27 All right. Thank you, Thousand Man. My goodness. What's the moral of the story, guys? I don't know what the moral is, but I'll tell you something. That Gabrielle Union situation is also an example of why you can't listen to someone who's not in the same position as you. Okay? This is why they tell women and couples and men and couples not to talk to single people.
Starting point is 00:51:44 Because Gabrielle Union was at one place in her life speaking from her level of consciousness and awareness but clearly aisha and stuff were in a space gab didn't get to until much much later in her life you know what i'm saying so she's speaking from her consciousness and awareness saying girl you need to go out there and have fun you need to go out there you know pop that boom boom for a goon and i should probably like? I got what I want at home Absolutely, and she made the best decision I mean, and you look at it, like, everybody's situation Like you said, is absolutely positively different
Starting point is 00:52:12 Like, you know, thank God My wife didn't say, you know what, I'm out of here Because I was doing some F-boy-ish You know, when I was younger And, you know, I changed, well, I should say she changed me And we have agreed That's interesting because Gabrielle Union gave advice from a woman who was in a relationship, who's married and everything, that just turned out to be wrong advice.
Starting point is 00:52:32 Correct. So it doesn't matter. But what I'm saying is, like, I think, you know, everybody's situation is different. Sometimes advice works. Sometimes it doesn't. All you can do is try to sometimes deal with things on your own and go with your gut feeling. Yeah, but you can't be matter of fact about it like Gabrielle was. You know what I'm saying?
Starting point is 00:52:49 Like it didn't work out for Gabrielle. And she probably was still speaking from a place of hurt thinking, well, it didn't work out for me, so damn sure it ain't going to work out for you. Because that's technically what she's saying by telling her to go out there and sleep with a whole bunch of guys. She's saying that, okay, your relationship probably ain't going to work anyway, so you might as well have fun. All right.
Starting point is 00:53:06 All right. Well, we got rumors on the way, Yee. Yes. Now let's talk about a show that you all, I'm sure, love and loved growing up. Well, they reunited, and we'll tell you where they reunited and where you can catch this reunion.
Starting point is 00:53:18 All right. Also, next hour, Ask a Yee. You can get on the phone lines right now. 800-585-1051 if you need relationship advice or any type of advice, you can call Yee right now. Rumors are up next. It's time. She's spilling the tea.
Starting point is 00:53:36 This is the Rumor Report with Angela Yee on The Breakfast Club. Yes, so for the finale of Will Smith's show on Snapchat, Will From Home, he reunited the cast members from The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air. So that should be pretty exciting. And the reunion took place on the first installment of the show's two-part season finale that took place yesterday. And the second part will be, you know, next week. Oh no, the second part will be actually today. So you can watch that today. So it's a two-part season finale. Alfonso Ribeiro was on it, Jazzy Jeff was on it, Tatiana Ali,
Starting point is 00:54:09 Karen Parsons, who played Hilary Banks, Daphne Maxwell-Reed, Aunt Vivian, and Joseph Marcel, who played Jeffrey, all joined him for the reunion. The other Aunt Viv wasn't there, though. The dark-skinned Aunt Viv, the original Aunt Viv, the classic Aunt Viv. We'll gotta make it right with the dark skin Aunt Viv
Starting point is 00:54:27 Before you know What happened with her? She wanted more money? What was the situation? Do we know? I don't remember She's vented about it a few times But I don't recall You gotta let bygones be bygones Right? Well maybe she didn't want to be on it
Starting point is 00:54:41 We don't know whose side it was on There's no place for her now. It's a wrap. No, she said that she went upstairs, and when she went upstairs, they kidnapped her, and then they sent the light-skinned woman down, and she woke up 20 years later, and Will was on Instagram.
Starting point is 00:55:00 Get out of here, man. Shut up. Here's one clip of Will Smith revealing how he decided to play his character as Will Smith, which is his real name. Here was the advice that he got from his co-star, Alfonso Ribeiro. Do you remember? So the reason that my character's name is Will Smith is because of you. Do you remember that? I do.
Starting point is 00:55:23 I do. I do. I remember because we had talked and I said, look, if you're ever going to do this show, you've got to be Will Smith. It was such a deep insight that you had. You said because people are going to call you that for the rest of your
Starting point is 00:55:39 life. I actually think that's brilliant advice because a lot of times we think that a person is playing a character, but let's be real. When you see Jaleel White in the street, you don't think Jaleel White. You think Urkel. You know what I'm saying? That is true. I don't even know a dude with a real name. Is a dude with a real name J.J. Walker?
Starting point is 00:55:55 Jimmy? What's his name? I don't know. That's a good question. I don't know what J.J.'s real name is. But when you see him, you think J.J. You think of the character. So that makes sense. Martin should be Martin. Yes.
Starting point is 00:56:10 I would do that too if I was on a show that I thought would be around for a long time. All right. Now, Doja Cat has teased her remix with Nicki Minaj for Say So. And here's what she posted. Cat's out the bag. Say So remix. To get a sneak peek of my remix with Nicki Minaj, you just had to actually post about it. You had to tag Say So Remix. So listen to this.
Starting point is 00:56:32 It's the remix. That's dope because remember the bars were coming at Doja Cat? Yeah, they thought they were beefing. I love that. I'm loving all this new music. I like that. I like that people thought that these women were beefing with each other, but they actually weren't and then collaborated together.
Starting point is 00:57:01 I think that's an amazing thing. So it's like, ha-ha, in your face, we actually cool with each other. Who's going to make the first quarantine record, though? We've been on quarantine for 50 days, and nobody has created a record that is, like, reflecting the moment that we're in. Like, who did that I'm in the house board song? Did that happen during the quarantine or before the quarantine? No, that happened during the quarantine.
Starting point is 00:57:19 But you remember, he was, it's not a full song. It's just like a little, he was beatboxing kind of on his desk. It's not a full song. It was that Tiger, right? No, it was, no, Tiger took it from the kid. Yeah, he was wearing it at TikTok. It was a young man. I don't think that's available, though.
Starting point is 00:57:33 Isn't it available, like, to download? I'm sure they're getting paid off of it, no? I'm not sure. I just think it's a TikTok thing. All I'm saying is that can't be the song of this moment, is what I'm saying. It got to be something that's a little bit deeper that talks about the moment we're in.
Starting point is 00:57:47 All right. Now, Big Boy asked 50 Cent on his show if he had to choose between giving a mask to Dr. Dre or to Eminem. Who would you give it to? And here was 50 Cent's response. Quarantine is going down. There's one mask. There's two people. You can only give one mask to this person.
Starting point is 00:58:02 You see Dr. Dre and you see Eminem. Who do you give that one mask to? I give him my mask and I give Dre my mask. If I had a mask on, I would give him mine. Why does Dre get the used mask and Em get the new mask? Because the way you sequenced it, you just gave me one mask to give my best to best friend. Yeah, that was a tough one for 50 to have to try to answer.
Starting point is 00:58:27 He's basically saying I saved both of them. He didn't really answer it. That's a tough one. He didn't answer it. Did I give one to Eminem? I give one to Dr. Dre. He didn't pick one. No, I'm saying he has to pick one.
Starting point is 00:58:40 Yeah, not give it to both of them. So Charlamagne, if it's between me and Dramos, who are you giving the mask to? Dramos. Damn. Because both of y'all Latino, so I only need one. You know what I'm saying? I'm just saying. It's representation.
Starting point is 00:58:59 You know what I'm saying? So it'd be me, the black. I represent the black. Dramos represent the Latino. You know what I'm saying? Why should the one black man die to save, you know, two Latinos? All right, I'm Angela Yee, and that's your rumor report. This is going left.
Starting point is 00:59:12 All right, I'm Angela Yee, that's your rumor report. Thank you. Thanks. What do you mean, wow, Drom, I saved you. Well, since you're giving him the donkey, I'm sure you're giving him the mask. I'm sure you're giving him the donkey, too. So who are you giving your donkey to? Well, let's keep it in the Latino family, guys.
Starting point is 00:59:26 All right? There's a guy. There's a guy named Alfonso Merlos. Do you know him, Drum? No. All Latinos don't know each other, man. We don't know each other, Charlamagne. Well, Alfonso Merlos needs to come to the front of the congregation.
Starting point is 00:59:40 We'd like to have a word with him. All right. We'll get into that next Keep It Locked. As a matter of fact, what do y'all call the church, Drum? Church? Yeah, how do you say congregation? Iglesia. Iglesia. That's right. We need him to come to the front of that. We'd like to have a word
Starting point is 00:59:54 with him. My goodness. All right, we'll get into this next. Don't move. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. It's time for Donkey of the Day. I'm a Democrat, so being Donkey of the day is a little bit of a mixed place but like a donkey now i've been called a lot in my 23 years but donkey of the day is a new one donkey of the day for thursday april 30th goes to a a Spanish news anchor named Alfonso Merlo. Now, if you're just joining the Breakfast Club,
Starting point is 01:00:30 we have a board op named DJ Dramos. He is our Latino board op, our Latino representation in the room. Good morning, Dramos. Good morning, sir. I will be leaning on... There you go. I need that.
Starting point is 01:00:41 That's exactly the energy I need this morning. I will be leaning on you heavy for that type of translation, and I know this is your world, okay? Now, Alfonso is the grand old age of 41. He's my age. How do you say 41 in Spanish, Drum? Cuarenta y uno. There you go.
Starting point is 01:00:57 Cuarenta y uno. Okay. Drum, are you familiar with this guy, Alfonso Merlo? No, we do not all know each other. Have you ever heard of the Estado de alarma channel drum i have not okay so they're clearly not as popping as telemundo do you say that with what do you say that you can you say that yes okay but they they are a news network and alfonso who is quarantined like the rest of us was doing what i'm doing right now broadcasting broadcasting live from his house, doing a live segment. Now, a lot of folks are not broadcasting with their significant others.
Starting point is 01:01:29 I have nothing to back up what I'm about to say, no facts, no stats, but I observe the couples that are quarantining together, from what I see, are married. Not saying that a lot of boyfriends and girlfriends aren't spending QT together, and by QT I mean quarrying and teening, but I see more married couples together during this time. Well, Alfonso is in a relationship with a woman named Marta
Starting point is 01:01:50 Lopez. Drom, do you know her? I'm not familiar. It's probably Marta. Marta. Damn, Drom, you're not going to correct me? I'm just going to let you dig your own grave. How's an Asian woman in the room correcting me about Spanish words? Come on, Drom. You're doing the best you can, you know.
Starting point is 01:02:06 Mi español es muy bueno. Wow. Well, Marta is the former star of the reality show Big Brother. Now, I know this woman, Marta, is probably quarantining somewhere, and when you haven't seen your boo physically, you take every opportunity to see them virtually. So if, you know, if they go on IG Live or if you're a news anchor like Alfonso, I'm sure your bae is
Starting point is 01:02:28 watching you in real time. So this guy, Alfonso, is broadcasting live from his house. He's on TV. Let's play a little clip of him broadcasting from the crib. This is how it sounds. Let's hear it, Drum. Now, what did he just say, Drum, in that little clip? Do you know? He's just talking about politics and stuff like that. Okay, well, as he he just say, Dram, in that little clip? Do you know? He was just talking about politics and stuff like that.
Starting point is 01:02:48 Okay, well, as he's doing that, and I'm reading this from the NY Post via the sun, and I saw it myself. As he's doing that, a scantily clad gal walked into the background of the shot. Did you just go Jamaican? Did you just go Jamaican on us? That's what the New York Post put.
Starting point is 01:03:04 They put scantily clad gal. Okay, go? That's what the New York Post put. They put scantily clad gal. Okay, go ahead. So in the New York Post, they say a scantily clad gal walked into the background of the shot. And as you can imagine, empanada Twitter went crazy. All the Latinos started posting on social media talking about the fact they saw a young lady half naked in the background of this
Starting point is 01:03:25 live shot and it wasn't alfonso's girlfriend marta lopez now dram you've been you've been busy on the hot pepper line right i don't i don't know what that means i've been looking on the internet yes what yeah and you you're tapping into your salsa sauces right i mean and you huh okay dram found out dram you found dram found out that this woman who was half naked was identified as a journalist named Alexia Ravias, right? And Ravias said, do you know her, Drom? I don't, but I do now. Okay, Alexia says she's been dating Alfonso for several weeks. And Alfonso claims he had broken up with the reality star Marta
Starting point is 01:04:05 before the at-home segment was shot. But Marta said that's a lie. Drum, how do you say lie in Spanish? Mentira. That's a mentira. She said that's a mentira. Now, Alonzo did what any smart man should do in that situation. He
Starting point is 01:04:21 shut up. He shut the F up for days. But recently he popped up on a show called The Anna Rose Show. Do you know The Anna Rose Show, Drum? No, I'm not familiar. What? Are you really Latino? You know nothing. He's from Spain, though. It's a little different. Well, he went on The Anna Rose Show to
Starting point is 01:04:37 apologize. Let's hear what he had to say. Pues, como te decía antes, Anna Rosa, estoy tranquilo, estoy sereno, estoy fuerte, pero obviamente estoy disgustado. Now, John, translate. He's saying all the right things. He's saying, you know, he's doing all right, but he's disgusted by the situation. That's not what I heard. What did you hear?
Starting point is 01:04:57 What I heard him say was black men don't cheat, but brown men do. That's not true. That's a lie. And according to the New York Post, he said, if you think that my attitude has not been correct, or that there are things that I have not done well, I have no problem asking for forgiveness, although my goal was not to harm anyone else.
Starting point is 01:05:15 Drom, how do you say a mess in Spanish? How do you say mess in Spanish? I don't know if this guy's really Latino, guys. The jig is up on Drom. I think he's just using this for diversity purposes. Basura's garbage, so we can say that. Okay.
Starting point is 01:05:31 This whole situation is basura. You're welcome, Drump. It's basura, man. Not basura. Basura. Basura. Drump, how do Latino women respond to being cheated on? How would this play out in your expert Latino opinion? You'd probably get cut, to be honest.
Starting point is 01:05:46 Really? Yeah, un chancleta, I should probably get, you know, beat you with a chancleta, which is like a slipper, or,
Starting point is 01:05:51 you know. Which one is going to do it? Is it going to be the one that was his wife, or the one that was scantily clad walking behind him? Who are you going to get cut by? Probably both, to be honest with you.
Starting point is 01:06:01 Wow. Well, Alfonso, you're an idiot. You're an idiot because that woman wanted to be seen uh she knew you was on live or something she she she had to want to be seen okay she got exactly what she wanted and you are a fool for falling for it that room you was in the door should have been locked you should have told her do not disturb uh no entree is that the word yeah
Starting point is 01:06:22 no entree no entree uh now you're out here looking like a cheeto. Because that's what you are. Is that how you say cheeto in Spanish? Cheeto? Mentirosa. Why would cheeto be the word for cheeto? I don't know. I don't know.
Starting point is 01:06:35 It sounds like it. Mentirosa. Mentirosa. All right. All right. Keep moving. Anyway, please give Alfonso Merlo the sweet sounds of the Hamilton's. Oh, now you are the donkey of the day. You are the donkey of the day.
Starting point is 01:06:57 Yee-haw. Yee-haw. So hold on. You're telling me that that Manti Rosa song is about cheating? Yeah, the line. The one that goes, Manti Rosa. M me that that Manti Rosa song is about cheating? Yeah, it's about lying. The one that goes, Manti Rosa. Manti Rosa. Manti Rosa.
Starting point is 01:07:09 So they just chant and cheat her in the club over and over? It sounds good. Yeah, just cheating like a liar, you know? It's fun. Now, Charlamagne ended by saying... What? Ended by saying, entre en culo. I wouldn't say that.
Starting point is 01:07:22 I don't know what that means, so I wouldn't say it. I know. You know what? I do know what that means. I know what that... You know how I know what that means? Because I know what culo. I wouldn't say that. I don't know what that means. I wouldn't say it. I know. You know what? I do know what that means. I know what that means. You know how I know what that means? Because I know what culo means, and I just learned what entry means. So I'm not saying that.
Starting point is 01:07:32 I just learned what entry means. Absolutely not. I will not say that. All right. Dramos. See, Dramos, if you were smart, you would have been telling him all the wrong things to say. Yeah, you're right. I dropped the ball on this one.
Starting point is 01:07:44 How do you say balls in Spanish, Dramos? All right. wrong things to say. Yeah, you're right. I dropped the ball on this one. Mm-mm. You definitely dropped it. How do you say balls in Spanish, drum? All right, well, come on. I'm not doing this. Come on, boys. We're not doing this. You guys. All right.

Starting point is 01:08:29 Call up now for Ask Ye. Eat the bread. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Ye, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. It's time for Ask Ye. Hello, who's this? Hello, this is Des.
Starting point is 01:08:42 Hey, Des. Why you sound like that? You okay? Yeah, I'm good. Alright, what's your question for you? I left a relationship like a while ago, like back in August. It was my kid's father. We were both
Starting point is 01:08:56 kind of abusive towards each other. It got really hectic and really bad, but we both have some really good qualities in each other. Like, we brought out the best in each other. I guess my question would be, like, would it be beneficial for us to try and work things out?
Starting point is 01:09:13 And if so, how? Because, like, those problems were just, I don't really know how to put it. Like, they, they... Well, when you say abusive, right? What do you mean? Physically abusive? Verbally abusive? Like, what do you mean? Physically abusive, verbally abusive? Like, just give us a little more insight. We were both kind of verbally abusive towards each other and physically abusive.
Starting point is 01:09:32 It wasn't just him that was physically abusive towards me. I was also physically abusive towards him. Like, there was a time I tased him out of his sleep, and I beat him with a taser. You beat him with a taser? You tased him and beat him up? Yeah, I beat him with a taser. You beat him with the taser? You tased him and beat him up? Yeah, I beat him with the taser. The taser was like a flashlight. And when I told my friends and my family about it, they laughed about it.
Starting point is 01:09:53 But I don't really think it's funny because... It's not funny. What is funny about men going through abuse as well? Men can be abused... You should have thought about that before you beat me. And tased him. Yeah, you're going to think about should have thought about that before you beat me. And tased him. Yeah, you're going to think about that after you tased me and beat me? Well, Des, and so, but to continue on, right,
Starting point is 01:10:13 you said you guys brought out the best in each other. It sounds like you might have brought out the worst in each other. Yeah, and so, like, that's my whole thing. Like, we can really help each other through a lot. Like, he has some really good qualities in him just as a man, period, regardless of his flaws. Like, we both have flaws, but we both also brought up the best in us. Like, he's probably the only guy I know around me that knows how to fix a car.
Starting point is 01:10:36 He's the only guy I know that knows how to work with his hands, like, as far as men in my circle. He's useful. Yeah, he is. You got you a handyman? Well, Des, you said he was also physically abusive towards you. You talked about what you did to him, but what
Starting point is 01:10:52 was he doing to you? We would fist fight with each other. We would get into arguments and he would hit me or sometimes I would hit him first and then he would hit me back and we would be fist fighting like two dogs in the street or something. That's awful. Dogs don't fist fight.
Starting point is 01:11:16 I just, I feel like this, Des. First of all, have either of you sought professional help or counseling? No, and we've talked about it a lot, but it's always just been that, like, we've always just only talked about it. Well, let's see how serious both of you are about changing yourselves, because it sounds like you both need to change, and even if you're not going to be together, it'll be beneficial for you to see what it is that triggers you so much that you feel like you have to be physically abusive, and what it's like for him as well, right? Those are things you guys both need to work on individually before you can even think about coming back together again. And if you are serious
Starting point is 01:11:52 about it, I would say you have a child that is witnessing some of these things, I'm sure, or knows about it or can sense things. And so that's not any way you want to raise a child together, right? So I think it is important for you to see behind the scenes, get some help for both of you, show that you're both serious and committed to bettering yourself. And then when you can be a whole person and understand what's going on with you, that you would accept this abuse and that he would be abusive towards you. And for him as well, I don't think you should even consider it until you guys both get some serious professional help. Right. You know, and I think sometimes we can be really comfortable.
Starting point is 01:12:30 We know that there's a quarantine going on right now. You guys have a child together. But I always feel like it's dangerous to be in a relationship where you are physically harming each other. That's never a good situation. Definitely. Definitely. I understand. And my, I kind of have another question as well. So there's times where he will talk and he talks about how he wants us to try to work things out, he wants us to get better together. him and I do miss him at times but I just don't feel like I'm emotionally there but it also hinders me from
Starting point is 01:13:08 even trying to move forward with meeting and speaking with other people like there have been guys who have tried to connect with me and I just like I'll start talking to them and then I'll just shut them out completely because like my
Starting point is 01:13:23 trust is just so massive. Des, baby girl, you got to give yourself some time. Y'all just broke up in August. What I recommend for you, because it doesn't sound like you really want to backslide in this relationship, you just feel comfortable with him, right? I don't want you to get comfortable
Starting point is 01:13:37 being in an abusive relationship just because that's what you're used to. Give yourself some time. You don't have to be with somebody else. You don't have to be with your ex. You can just be by yourself for a little while and there's nothing wrong with that until the right situation comes along don't force it i think sometimes people are so scared to be alone and it's okay for you to be alone because you're working on yourself you're trying to
Starting point is 01:13:57 make sure that you're who you need to be before you can even be with someone and i think it's so important for you to figure out you before you can figure out us. Definitely. Well, I appreciate it. Hey, Dev, can I ask you a question? It's Des. Des, this is Uncle Charlotte talking. Could you DM me the video of you tasing the dude?
Starting point is 01:14:17 I know you got it, man. Come on, come on. I know you got it. I know you got it. I know you got it. I know you got it. Come on. Good luck, man. Come on.
Starting point is 01:14:24 Send me the video, Dev. See the guy. C-T-H-A-G-O-D on Instagram. DM me the video. I won't got it. I know you got it. I know you got it. Thank you, Dez. Good luck, man.

Starting point is 01:14:36 But I will say there is nothing funny about that. And you're absolutely right. It's not cool. It's not cool for you to ever feel out of character like you got to put your hands or do something physical. Or for somebody to feel like they could do that to you. So I just want you to take some time yourself. Don't feel like there's anything wrong right now with being single. Don't fall into the, I'm lonely.
Starting point is 01:14:53 It's quarantine time. I'm home with my kid and I'm just comfortable. Don't fall into any of that right now. We can't say there's nothing funny about a person getting tased out of their sleep until we see the video. We laugh at stuff like that on Instagram all day long. Knock it off. If you've seen a man sleeping and he got tased in the middle of his sleep,
Starting point is 01:15:12 he probably looked so crazy when he got up. She said all her friends laughed when they saw the video. I want to see the video. She doesn't think it's funny. Send me the tase. I want to try it on Charlamagne. Let me see if I can get Charlamagne to react like that. Send me the tase.
Starting point is 01:15:24 You would never be... When would you wake me out of my sleep, sir? Now, if you want to tell secrets, tell secrets. If you're going to spill it, spill it. Hmm. Huh? Huh? No shocking the chulo? What?

And I want to surprise her extra special. And I honestly don't know how to do it. So, maybe you can get a little help from y'all. Okay.
Starting point is 01:16:24 Oh, well, this was cute because now I'm going to tell you something that our producer, one of our producers, Dan, did for his girlfriend for her birthday. He did some really cute things. He set up a Zoom with her family and friends. So it was like a party, and I see a lot of people doing this. And so if you have all their, I'm sure you do have their contact information to surprise her and get everybody, since we can't all see each other, on the Zoom together so they can have a little party virtually right yes ma'am i think that's a cute idea and listen i'm always into like doing things in the house right now because that's where
Starting point is 01:16:53 we have to be but making it special like decorating the house you know making sure you get a nice meal ready whether you cook it or you have to order it and pick it up or whatever it is that you have to do just make it special and different. Some more effort. Get some special wine or champagne or whatever drinks that she likes. You know, lay out a nice little cute pajama outfit for you guys to be in the house together. Get some good music going. A movie night in the house.
Starting point is 01:17:17 Make it seem like y'all went somewhere even though you just stayed in the house. Make it special. Where you from, bro? Now, this ain't until wave October. Hopefully all this will be. Oh, yeah, this should be over by October. I just want this to be extra, extra special. Where you from, bro? Oh, yeah, this should be over by October. Where you from? Where you from, bro?
Starting point is 01:17:33 Louisiana. Okay. Yeah, the quarantine thing you was talking about, hopefully you won't have to do that in October, bro. But how long y'all been together? Seven years. What's her favorite food, man? What's one thing that she loves to do, bro?
Starting point is 01:17:49 She loves Mexican food. She loves just, you know, hanging out and watching movies. I bought this mini projector. Well, she don't know about it, but she probably will now. And I bought a big screen, and I was hoping, like, to set up a giant movie thing in the backyard, maybe sit in the bed of the truck and just kind of... That'd be dope. That'd be dope. That'd be dope. You get some Mexican food and it'd be dope if you could create some videos of friends
Starting point is 01:18:10 and family saying happy birthday before the video starts to pop up on that screen to let them know that you care. Even go, where's the first place that y'all dated from? Where did y'all go on your first date? It was actually the Franklton Fair. We got together there pretty much, you know. It was really a special moment i'll go do a video from that fair site and just saying you know just you saying hey babe i love
Starting point is 01:18:30 you this is where we first met this is one of the places that we first met and i appreciate you and i just wanted to you know mark this place and put that on that video too have that all start the video before you watch the movie i think that'd be dope and sexy oh yeah i think you're right i think i think that will be a wonderful idea. Oh, yeah. I think you're right. I think that will be a wonderful idea to remark seven years of being together. That's very thoughtful. That ain't about money, that ain't about anything else but just being thoughtful and love, right?
Starting point is 01:18:54 I just want to show her that I care for her after all this time, that I still, or she still has my heart and I hopefully still have hers. There you go. And then you got to give it a D all night that night. Okay. Okay. All right.
Starting point is 01:19:10 Yee had technical difficulties. I think she's back now. Why is he laughing like a crazy person? Now, we gave him some great advice. I gave him some great advice. I think he's good now. I'm scared. Thank y'all so much. No, Miss Yee, don't be scared. He gave me great advice. Why are you laughing like that?
Starting point is 01:19:26 Oh, because he had made a comment at the end, I'd have to give it a D all night after everything. A DL night? Why it had to be a DL night? He said give it a D all night. Goodness gracious. Oh, D all night. I was like, what the hell?
Starting point is 01:19:42 You know about that, Charlemagne. All right, well, thank you, brother. Whoa, come on, guys. These things be taking a left sometime. All right. Ask Yee. 800-585-1051. If you need relationship advice, you can hit Yee up now.
Starting point is 01:19:55 You got rumors on the way, Yee? Yes, the Breakfast Club. On the big screen again, we'll tell you what we were involved in yesterday. All right. We'll get into that next. Keep it locked. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Good morning.
Starting point is 01:20:07 The Breakfast Club. Listen up. It's just in. All the gossip. Gossip. The rumor report. Gossip. Gossip. With Angela Yee.
Starting point is 01:20:16 It's the rumor report. The Breakfast Club. Yes, so yesterday Offset had an Offset and Friends virtual music live stream event, and joining him was also Rich the Kid and St. John on that stream. Well, another person who joined in was Young Thug. And Young Thug was talking about a time that he almost died from liver and kidney failure. Listen to this.
Starting point is 01:20:37 Kind of just stayed in the bed and I was like, I can't move my body. Then later I was, when the ambulance came, I couldn't get out of the bed. They had to get me out of the bed, basically. I felt like my whole body was numb and I couldn't move. I went to the hospital and I had found out that I had liver and kidney failure. And I kind of had sort of passed away, like I kind of died. I was in the hospital for like 17 days. What caused that? Was it like the lean or something like that?
Starting point is 01:21:03 You usually have no alcohol when it comes to kidneys, right? And livers. Isn't it usually alcohol? I would hope it wasn't drugs because it really disturbs me when black people who have the luxury to actually take care of themselves, to eat the right things and exercise and, you know, have access to health care. It really bothers me when people like that don't take care of their bodies. You know what I mean? People who have the means.
Starting point is 01:21:26 But we also know addiction is a serious disease for some people, so it's not as easy for some people as it is for others to take care of themselves the way that we know that you should, you know? Now, hold on. Was it drugs, though? We don't know.
Starting point is 01:21:41 I'm not saying that it was, but he was talking about this while explaining the inspiration behind the song that he performed on that stream, Killed Before. So I guess you could listen to the song and get some more information. Well, let's not put that on Thug. I don't want to put that on Thug and say it was drugs. No, yeah, we don't know that. No, we don't know what it was. I don't want him to kidnap me and torture me like he said he would do to me years ago.
Starting point is 01:22:05 All right. Now, Babyface has announced a Mother's Day Waiting to Exhale Instagram Live special. You know, Waiting to Exhale is my movie and my soundtrack. Love that. And he was actually speaking with The View about his recent bout with coronavirus and then how Waiting to Exhale will be part of the Mother's Day celebration. Listen to this because there were so many people you know that were on instagram live that wanted to hear like music from waiting to exhale and so i thought this would be great mother's day to play the waiting exhale and tell stories tell how it all happened and talk about the arts and something
Starting point is 01:22:38 be fun to do that because that was half the fun of it all and doing the uh the instagram live was that being able to tell stories and tell things, people were so interested in that. So I thought it'd be fun to do this as well. And I did love those stories, by the way, when he did his versus battle with Teddy Riley. That was the highlight for me too, just hearing all the stories they had to tell
Starting point is 01:22:55 behind some of those songs. So I think hearing about music from Waiting to Exhale and all of that would be great for us to hear. Who do you think's more shady, a babyface or Prince? Do you think babyface is Prince-level shady? God bless the day. No, I think Prince was next level. Prince was next level shady, right?
Starting point is 01:23:12 Babyface, guys, he's up there, though. On a scale of one to Prince, babyface is about a six or seven. Yeah, babyface is up there when it comes to that. All right, now Oprah, for her network OWN, is prepping a remote, non-scripted series, Fair Not with Ayanla Van Zanzant and Girlfriends Check In. So those are two virtually produced series that they're planning to do. Ayanla Vanzant's show launches on May 16th,
Starting point is 01:23:35 and it'll feature Ayanla offering her guidance during the pandemic and also have guests like Oprah, Bibi Winans. They'll have financial educators like Tiffany, who's the budget nista. That should be interesting. And then there's also a girlfriend's check-in that's going to air right after. And it'll bring together different groups of female celebrity friends each week. They'll have virtual get-togethers for laughter, support, love, and gossip. So that should be interesting for us to watch while we're at home. Now, another good news, Post Malone is asking for fans to donate the million dollars of charity that he earned, the money that he earned for charity. He wants you to choose what charity that that money is
Starting point is 01:24:13 going to go to. So he's using the Celebrity Fan Platform community and then whatever causes his fans support, then he'll be able to donate to those different causes. So you can tell him where you want them to send the money, you can text him directly on his community phone number and then he'll make sure those donations get done and it has to deal with coronavirus relief for education homelessness, hunger, mental health, veterans
Starting point is 01:24:36 and more. I think that's pretty dope I think that's dope too. It sounds like a worthy cause to me, I don't necessarily care for Post Malone's music but that's a worthy cause I think it's dope, you that's a worthy cause. One doesn't have to do with other. Yeah, you got to celebrate when people do amazing things. And DJ Paul, he is doing the Versus Battle. You know, it's going to be Bone Thugs versus 3-6 Mafia.
Starting point is 01:24:55 That's actually happening today. It's not a Versus Battle, though, with Timbaland and Swizz Beatz. So he was on TMZ Live, and here's what he had to say about wanting them to get on board. No, it's not a ripoff. You know, we would love to do it on Versus. You know, believe me, Versus is lit. But, you know, we haven't talked to them or nothing, you know, so we just want to do our own little friendly competition. It ain't a competition right now.
Starting point is 01:25:16 We call it a celebration, a little friendly celebration of over 50 years of combined, you know, combined music that we put out together, you know, for the fans, man. This may be an opportunity to holler at Timbo right now. It would be dope. I see them talking, you know, asking who next, who next. People be saying my name all the time. So, you know, you know, I love to do it, man. Holler at me, man. Holler at me, Tim and Swizzy.
Starting point is 01:25:38 I wasn't necessarily a Bone Thugs fan growing up. Definitely was a 3-6 Mafia fan. But Bone is a legendary group. 3-6 is a legendary group. That wouldn't be a bad versus at all. That wouldn't be a bad versus. And then they can do their solo stuff, but are they allowed to do their production that they've done for other artists too?
Starting point is 01:25:55 I would assume so, yeah. I would think so. No, no, no, no, no. Yeah. No, because it's a group battle. Bone never produced for Bone, Bone never produced for Bone. Bone never produced for anybody. That's what I'm saying. That's not fair, right?
Starting point is 01:26:09 Yeah, it's a group battle. It's 3-6 Mafia versus Bone Thugs, not DJ Paul and Juicy Jazz producers. Yeah, but we don't necessarily know. Bone Thugs could have produced stuff for Eazy-E. It could have produced for things we just don't know. So we can't say it didn't. We just don't know.
Starting point is 01:26:24 We never heard that. We never heard that in our lives. Yeah, don't make things up now. I'm just saying we don't know. So we can't say it didn't. We just don't know. We never heard that. We never heard that in our lives. Yeah, don't make things up now. I'm just saying we don't know. I didn't say I did. I said we don't know. Just like some of the records that Lil Jon produced. We didn't know Lil Jon did Capleton. There's stuff that from these battles we're learning things. But Lil Jon is a producer though. Bone Thugs has never been
Starting point is 01:26:39 on the record as a producer is what I'm saying. It's like if I said right now I want to battle you in a DJ battle, what would you say? I've never seen your DJ in your life. Exactly. That's all. That's all. All right.
Starting point is 01:26:51 And I just want to close it out with, make sure you guys check out Little Dicky Show. Is his name Little Dicky anymore? Is that how we're referring to him? Or Dave? Yeah, he's Little Dicky on the show. Okay. Well, here we are actually discussing his name and his name changes and all of that on the finale.
Starting point is 01:27:11 Morning, everybody. I'm Angela Yee. That's Charlamagne Tha God. We are The Breakfast Club, and we have a very special guest in the building. Lil Dicky is here. Hello, everybody. Yeah, he keeps introducing himself as Dave, though. Yeah, that's my name. So I just feel weird
Starting point is 01:27:26 like introducing myself as anything other than my name. That's pretty un-rapper-like of you. I know, right? Is that something you take pride in, being different? You know, not being seen as a typical rapper? Not necessarily. I don't want to even speak to what other rappers do. I just, like, if I'm going to meet someone, I'm not going to be like,
Starting point is 01:27:42 hi, I'm Lil Dicky, because, like, I'm not. I'm Dave, like the guy behind Lil Dicky. You know what I mean? We didn't want to give away what's actually happening on the show, so make sure you check out the series. Yeah, and listen, let's tell the backstory a little bit. Last year, Lil Dicky hit me up, and he asked me, he asked us to do this, and he told me the concept, and so we did the show, and that was like, I was late last year, and when the show premiered this year, I wasn't even watching it, and then my homegirl, Jenny Henry, hit me and was like, you should watch Dave.
Starting point is 01:28:07 I want your opinion on it. And I started watching after seven episodes, Ed, and I loved the show. It is brilliant. Best comedy on TV I've seen in a long time. Dave and What We Do in the Shadows are my two favorite shows to watch right now. They're both on FX.
Starting point is 01:28:21 Dave is, like, really, really, really hilarious. So drop on the booze bomb for Lil Dicky. And Envy wasn't there that day because he had to leave work early. Yeah, I was closing on a property and it was a long shoot. It was like a seven hour shoot, right? A five hour shoot, something like that.
Starting point is 01:28:36 They didn't tell me it was going to be that long. It definitely was a long hour shoot. It was a long shoot and I had to close on the property so I couldn't make it. And the funny thing is when I get to close on the property, I couldn't close that day
Starting point is 01:28:44 because they didn't have all the paperwork. So I would have loved to do it. Well, you could have came back it. And the funny thing is, when I get to close all the property, I couldn't close that day because they didn't have all the paperwork. So I would have loved to do it. Well, you could have came back then. Yeah, I could have. Listen, I'm telling you, Dave is a great show. If you have not checked it out on FX, all 10 episodes are up on demand right now. It's hilarious. There's another episode they use a very underrated Breakfast
Starting point is 01:29:00 Club clip because Taco from Odd Future is on the show and he's lying in bed watching Instagram. There's a Breakfast Club episode when I was telling Juice WRLD, I was telling all Juice WRLD's boys to hug. Remember when I used to make all the brothers hug and say I love you and I value you and I appreciate you? He was laying in the bed randomly watching that.
Starting point is 01:29:16 It's just, the show's really dope. Salute to Dave. Lil Dicky. Same thing. Alright. Well, that is your rumor report, alright? Shout right shout to revolt we'll see you guys later everybody else the people's choice mixes up next get your request in right now 800 585-1051 it's the breakfast club good morning good morning everybody it's dj nv angela yee charlamagne the guy we are the breakfast club i see and they're starting to open things up a lot
Starting point is 01:29:42 faster than i thought i know in in this in Jersey, the parks will be open. Golf courses will be open. And when I go to the grocery store, when yesterday I'm starting to see paper towel and toilet paper. So I'm starting to see things getting back to a good position, a good spot. And also, man, the good Governor Murphy in New Jersey, who is a friend of the Breakfast Club, salute to you. It's time to open the barbershops and hair salons, my brother. You know what I'm saying? That should be considered essential.
Starting point is 01:30:10 I don't know that that's essential. Well, if you want me to send you a picture of my hairline, Governor Murphy, it looks like yours, okay? There's a lot of YouTube videos that can show you how to cut your hair at home. No, no, no. I don't play with my dome like that. Governor Murphy, look. I can't have my hairline look like home. No, no, no. I don't play with my dome like that. Governor Murphy, look.
Starting point is 01:30:25 I can't have my hairline look like yours. Please, open the barbershops. Ah, mine is pretty good. I just had a wife just do the goatee, and, you know, mine is good money. Sorry for you, brother. Shut up. Salute to Governor Murphy, though.
Starting point is 01:30:36 I think he's doing a great job in Jersey, by the way. Yeah, I think he's doing a great job out here, too. When we come back, we got the positive notes. Don't move. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, got the positive notes. Don't move. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. Good morning, everybody.
Starting point is 01:30:48 It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God. We are The Breakfast Club. Now, what you doing today, Yee? Well, today, I actually, this is the culmination of this work I did with Shea Moisture for their fund that they have. And what they did was they gave away, they have a fund that gives away a million dollars to support entrepreneurs of color and small businesses. So I helped kick things off, giving away that first $100,000. So 10 different businesses are getting $10,000. I had to judge the 20 finalists. It was really hard, too, because I was looking through each of their business proposals and what they do for the community.
Starting point is 01:31:18 And these are for companies that do things that help communities that are affected by coronavirus. And let me tell you something. I was looking at these proposals for hours. I was like, I don't know which ones to pick. But today we're going to start announcing the winners from the Million Dollar Fund. So I'll be on at 6 p.m. today. And it's me and Yandy and Tina Knowles-Lawson and Richard Lawson, who are the judges. So I'm excited for that.
Starting point is 01:31:45 So shout out to Shea Moisture and their Community Commerce Small Business Fund. Okay, that is dope. Now, I'm seeing online that it says Britney Spears burnt down her gym. What is that? Yeah, I saw that. She lit a bunch of candles. Oh, wow. That's not safe.
Starting point is 01:32:02 No, it's definitely not. I don't think you should, yeah. That's definitely not safe. You know what? I'm always so don't think you should. Yeah. That's definitely not safe. You know what? I'm always so nervous, too, because I have so many candles in my house. I always am nervous if I go upstairs even for a minute in my head. I'm like, man. And then I watch the little fires everywhere.
Starting point is 01:32:16 And I was like, I hope my house don't burn down. So I'd be so cautious with lighting these candles and making sure that I blow them out, even if I just go upstairs for a second or just hop in the shower. So she said her gym burned down. She had two candles. One thing led to another. And she said she burned it down. So she only has two pieces of equipment left. But she did show a video to show off her workout, you know, during this time. Sheesh. All right. Well, Charlamagne, you got a positive note? Yeah, man. You know, Diddy magnified a conversation that we've been having since the start of this new presidential campaign cycle. And that conversation is that, you know, votes are transactional.
Starting point is 01:32:53 Politicians should give something in order to get something. And there's absolutely nothing irresponsible about demanding something for your vote. And in fact, there's a guy named Malcolm X who called that political maturity. So I just want to encourage you all to go online, go on YouTube and, you know, watch Ballot or the Bullet by Malcolm X or just Google Malcolm X black voting and listen to some of his thoughts on how we should handle our right to vote. So the positive note today is just some words for Brother Malcolm and why he feels in regards to voting, black voters should do whatever is necessary to bring a complete solution to your problems. I'll let him explain.
Starting point is 01:33:28 You suggest that Negroes vote for in the coming election. I wouldn't suggest that they vote for any party or either party. I would suggest that the so-called Negroes become politically mature, realize the power that they hold in the field of politics, and then once the person who is running is aware that this man is awakened to the power that he holds, then that person who is running will approach that Negro on a more intelligent plane. As it is right now, most of the Negro leaders sell out to the white politicians for crumbs. And an awakening, a political awakening among Negroes will make it impossible for the present Negro leaders to sell our people out as they've been doing in the past.
Starting point is 01:34:09 So you do think Negroes should vote? Negroes should do whatever is necessary to bring about a complete solution to their problem. When I say whatever is necessary, whatever is necessary. They should have the flexibility to do whatever is necessary to solve the problem. Breakfast club, bitches! You're finished or you're done.
