Mike Tyson's journey to recovery reminds us that no fight is easy. With every bump he started, each step back in moments that could have broken him, he kept pushing forward. I never knew what the spiral was coming up in my life. I never knew

I was going to have deep hopelessness. And how so many millions of people feel like that but have no help. Listen to the CINO Show on America's number one podcast network, iHeart.

Yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo! What's up, Yee?

No, I'm just being funny. What the hell was that? You never used to do that? No. What's up, Yee? What's up? All right. You're supposed to say something, Evie. being funny. What the hell was that? You never used to do that? No. What's up, Yee? What's up? All right. You're supposed to say something, Yee. Thank you.

All right. Charlemagne's in South Africa. He's on his way to South Africa. Actually, he's at home probably. Well, what time is his flight? It's not until like, I think, 1040. Okay. So he has to get there two hours before and he's leaving from JFK.

So he needs a little extra time. He should be on his way. So shout out to all the South Africans out there. Charlemagne will be on his way out there to Johannesburg. All right. So show needs a little extra time. He should be on his way. Shout out to all the South Africans out there. Charlamagne will be on his way out there to Johannesburg. Show that guy a good time. Take him to the best restaurants. He's not going to go to any clubs. Don't worry about that. Show him the best shopping and take him all around South Africa.

I love South Africa. He's not going to let anybody just take him all around. They'll take him there. The South Africans in Johannesburg are so nice. Like I said, I go twice a year. I'm mad I couldn't go on this trip. It was kind of effed up how they did me, but it's okay. We'll go on the next one.

What's going on? What did you do yesterday? Yesterday? What did I do yesterday? It feels like it was so far away. I can't even remember. Did you put up a Christmas tree in your house yet? No, I'm not going to.

You're not going to put up a tree at all? For me to just look at? Yes, you and your boyfriend. You cuddle around the tree and drink eggnog and do freaky stuff by the tree. We both don't really care enough to put up a tree for that. Not at all? No. Oh, goodness gracious.

You know what? In my appearance growing up, we didn't really... Okay, so you know my father is very cheap. You didn't have a tree as a kid? No. So what he would do is he would get the tree, but he would return it and get his money back. What do you mean? Like after Christmas, you could return the tree and get your money back.

So he would get a fake tree, buy it... No, it'd be real. What do you mean? You can buy the... I don't know where he used to get it from, but you could buy the real tree, and then when you bring it back, they give you back your money. Why? What did he say?

He didn't like the tree? The tree didn't work? It's a Christmas tree. Were you going to keep it in the house? No, but you throw it out. You can't return the tree that you used. Your pops is the cheapest person I know. Yeah, me too.

No, no, he is the cheapest. Like, he really messed up your childhood. Why? We had a tree. He just brought it back after. But you didn't go to Disney World? Mm-mm. You didn't see Lion King?

Well, I wasn't a kid when Lion King came out. Well, still, you didn't see none of the stuff as a kid. Did you at least have toys and Barbie dolls? You didn't see Lion King as a kid. No, I didn't see Lion King as a kid. That would have been impossible. My kids was kids. But you had toys and things like that, right?

Yes, I had toys. Yes, and V. Did he return your toys after every birthday? Like, he buys them for your birthday and then returns them the next day? But I'll tell you what else my dad used to do. We would get Christmas, no, for Valentine's Day and for Easter. We couldn't celebrate on the day. We had to celebrate the day after because the candy would be half off.

Yo, your pops is foul, yo. That's foul. He's just really cheap. Like, you know when you go, my dad works at my uncle's office. My uncle's a dentist. And when Envy goes there, he would tell you how to get home without paying any tolls. He did. He definitely told me that.

But it's a longer ride. I'm like, aren't you wasting gas? I don't have to pay extra in gas. But he was like, yeah, but you pay no tolls. I'm like, all right. He's extra. Really? Okay.

All right. Well, Lizzie, let's get the show cracking. Let's do it. Yandy Smith will be joining us. Of course, she's from Love & Hip Hop New York. Yeah, they already have her on there beefing with Kimbella. Because I guess they haven't been getting along. What it looks like from the outside looking in for a while.

So I'm sure she's going to talk about that. And recently she has a foster child that she's been working on adopting. I never understood. Maybe you can help me out with this. When you watch Love & Hip Hop and you see people that's doing pretty good or decent, why argue? Why create beef on a show? It just makes it look bad.

Why do that in real life? People do that in real life too. I guess you're right. But why even do it on the show? Is it to get more time on the show? Do they come to you more if you beef and you argue? Like, why? It's just stupid to me. People like controversy, so they like to see somebody throw a drink, somebody slap somebody, somebody knocking along, somebody beef on social media.

Then they can tune in and see what's going to happen. Oh, my goodness. All right. Well, Yandy Smith will be joining us. And then we got front page news. What are we talking about? Well, for you guys, you might be able to have your own birth control options. Here's something else that you could be doing instead of using a condom. But remember, condoms prevent diseases. Okay. We'll get into that next.

Keep it locked. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. low asian murder on that beat something for y'all to cut up to you is dj mv angela yee charlamagne Tha God. We are The Breakfast Club. Let's get some front page news. Now tonight, Thursday night football.

The Cowboys take on the Saints. Also, shout out to my son's Pop Warner team, the Brick City Lions. They're heading out to Orlando for the Pop Warner championship game. So, congratulations, guys, and good luck. They're going for a week of games. So, my son's going to miss school for a week. Someone missed my little boy. He's going to miss school for this?

Yeah, for a week. This is big. This is like championships. There's a lot of scouts there. It's just a lot of fun for all the kids out there. And these are teams all across the country. So, their team won, and they are heading to Disney. So, shout to the coaches.

Shout to all the players. Good luck. Mama's going with them. I ain't going, but Mama's going with him. So good luck. All right. Now what else are we talking about, Yeezy? Well, let's talk about a male birth control gel.

They're saying that could actually replace condoms, and you won't have to get a vasectomy anymore. Does it kill diseases, too? No. That's what I'm saying. You still got to use condoms. But this is for people in relationships, right? And they're saying this could be very effective in preventing pregnancies. It's

called NEST, NEST. So what they're saying is you apply it to your back and shoulders and it absorbs through your skin and it blocks the natural testosterone production in the testes. So that means your sperm production is very low and non-existent. What kind of long-term effects come with it? Yeah, that gotta have something crazy. You put it on your back. That would be great though if a guy doesn't know that you don't want to have kids, and then you rub that on, like, let me give you a massage. And you rub it on his back so you know you'll never get pregnant? But this is just another male contraceptive, because men only have condoms and vasectomies.

And pull out. So now they, yeah, I don't know how effective that is. It hasn't worked for me. I see. Five kids. All right, now, authorities have seized $1.3 million worth of cocaine from a suitcase at JFK. Somebody did not claim that suitcase. You know I've been watching Narcos Mexico.

Hell no. Yes. They're trying to figure out whose suitcase is this. It went unclaimed on a flight from Quito, Ecuador to New York City last week. Somebody probably was like, oh, I think they're on to me and just left. Just left today, yeah. Yeah, sounds like somebody was about to get caught. All right. Now, a Florida police chief has gotten three years in prison. Raimundo Atasiano, he was the former

Biscayne Park police chief. He would direct his officers to frame innocent black men for unsolved burglaries. Wow. Crazy. So he he said it was a lot of pressure for him. It was just too much. He said, when I took the job, I was not prepared. I made some very, very bad decisions. Very bad. Oh, yeah. I felt like three years is not enough. You know how many people probably went to jail for who knows how long?

Absolutely. Because of this man framing them and ordering his workers to frame these innocent black men. He probably needed convictions and figured this would be the easy way to get convictions. African-Americans, probably he felt like they would be convicted fast in court, and that's what he did, which is foul. He should definitely get more than three years. Try like 20. You're playing with people. They should combine all the time that everybody he framed got, and that should be the amount of years he gets.

People are missing their families, missing Thanksgiving, missing Christmas, missing graduations, missing marriages, missing babies, all because this guy is trying to get convictions. Absolutely. And he was bragging about the 100% burglary clearance records at a village commission meeting. And then a month later, they find out that he's been telling the police officers to frame innocent black men. And they saw that there were arrest affidavits, and they all used similar vague language. Like, it would be like, oh, the person broke into the home and there was a rear door pried open and they saw that on

a fourth arrest affidavit. So they were like, this is just too similar. Goodness gracious. All right. All right. Well, that's your front page news. Get it off your chest.

800-585-1051. If you're upset, you need to hit us up right now. Maybe you had a bad night, horrible morning, or maybe you want to spread some positivity. 800-585-1051.

And don't forget, next hour, Yandy Smith from Love & Hip Hop New York will be joining us. So don't move. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Can't pick up the mother-mother phone and dial. This is your time to get it off your chest. Whether you're mad or blessed.

Say it with your chest. We want to hear from you on The Breakfast Club. So you better have the same energy. Yeah. Ashanti. Good morning. Good morning. What's up, mama?

Good morning. Oh, I'm so happy you're with me. But I wanted to just come clean because I'm tired. Why are you tired, Ashanti? You and Ja Rule on tour. Y'all doing well. So loud show. I was like, what is Envy talking about?

I'm sure Ashanti's tired, too. But I've just been working a lot. I've been in the same field for eight years, and I've traveled all through the states. I went to Tampa to help them this week, and it's cool. It looks good on your resume or whatever, but I'm tired. Take a vacation. That sounds like you need a reset. I'm off this weekend, but that's still not enough.

No, you need a vacation. I know, and I'm in Florida. I know, but, you know, the learning, the work. I got kids. That's the type of work I would love to go out and do all that other stuff. You need to take a week off from work because, guess what? Your health is just as important as you making money. Yeah, take a couple days off.

That's true. I mean, it sounds good, y'all. It sounds real good. Take a day off. Just go get a hotel room somewhere. Turn your phone off and just relax. And plus, you'll be a lot more productive once you get some rest. And like I said, you need that reset. People act like, I'll sleep when I die.

I got to get this money. But you got to get this health, too. I'm saying I used to say that. I definitely appreciate it because I understand it's still for your mental health. But at the same time, ain't nobody going to pay these bills for me. I got you. But you can take a day or two off. You can take a day or two off, though. True.

I'm used to being on 10, though. My kids are straight. I got to get this checked. I ain't mad at you. And I'm sure the kids would love to take some time off with you. Well, just take your time. Just take a day off, all right? All right, all right.

Y'all have a blessed day. Thank you. You too. Get that money, boo. Cassandra, good morning. Yeah, good morning, DJ Evie. Uh-oh. Thank you. You too. Get that money, boo. Cassandra, good morning. Yeah, good morning, DJ Envy. How dare you shout out the Brixley-Villain football team and not mention the cheerleaders. You know what's sad?

Damn. They had a nerve to clown cheerleaders when Angela E. reported that the cheerleaders from the 49ers took a knee. He said they don't matter. So for that, he needs to give us a donation. He also clowned us when we first congratulated us and said that we're not even a legitimate team. And we're not also our congressperson, our county executive,

our two U.S. senators, and Mayor Antelope. Nobody gave us a donation. We emailed our county executive twice, and he did not give us a donation for our cheerleaders. And we're so struggling trying to get our cheerleaders down here. Put some respect on these cheerleaders. Sorry, Cassandra. Shout out to the get our cheerleaders down here. Put some respect on these cheerleaders. Sorry, Cassandra.

Shout out to the Brook City cheerleaders. Those girls be out there in the cold, flipping. They be cheering. And they deserve the respect. And I respect them. And Abby's going to make a donation. I've been donating. I've been trying to get them kids to go.

If you know the calls I've been trying to make for everybody. The cheerleaders? Everybody. The whole squad. Make the call to our county executive system. We emailed them twice. Make the call to our county executive. We emailed him twice. Make the call to U.S. Senator Cory Booker and Menendez and Congressman Payne. And you said that Raz Baraka was supposed to get back at you.

And he never got. And I was going to listen to him when I saw him at the homeless coalition meeting. But since you said that you were waiting for him to get back with you, I just left alone. You should have pressed him because I pressed him. I pressed him. I pressed Kanye. I pressed him. I pressed Kanye. I pressed Nike. I pressed Adidas.

I pressed everybody. They do help us. The cheerleaders, okay, help our football team. Those are our boys. We love them. But you got to talk about our cheerleaders too, DJ Em, because that's not right. Well, the boys and the cheerleaders, we're trying to get everybody out there. I came up with some money, too, so don't you start, Cassandra.

I'm trying to get everybody there, but you're right, because the cheerleaders need as much love as the football players. I've never heard you shout them out. I'm shouting them out now. This is the first time. Don't have Cassandra beat me up now. Thanks so much, D. Cassandra, thank you.

Are you going to Orlando? Yes, I'm going. We leave on Sunday. If you make that call, she's going. I'm trying to make as many calls. Make those calls. We need that money. All right. You look out for little Logie,'m trying to make as many calls. Make those calls. We need that money. All right.

You look out for Lil' Logie because I ain't going to be here. You hold him down. Of course. All right. Thank you, Cassandra. All right. Thanks, DJ and me. I told you Newark don't play.

Them parents don't play. Shout out to the Brick City Lions and good luck out in Orlando. Shout out to the players and the cheerleaders. Right. They work together. Yes, they work together. All right. Get it off your chest.

I know this is where you tell them on your map. I just want to say thank you to Fashion Nova. Thank you to the Detox Now, Jessie, and thank you to everybody that supported me. I'll tell you a story about a lady who her house burned down and she had nothing and I took her and her kids shopping, fashioned over, heard the story, and they gave her and her kids clothes. Jesse gave money to

support, and I just want to say thank you. That's what the holiday season is about. That's dope. It's important. So, to the young lady, her name is Priscilla. She's looking for a job now, so anybody, you know, needs somebody to work. She's about 33 years old. She has three kids. She's very, very good. And she lost her job, but we're trying to help her out.

That's what the holiday season is about. And you guys help. So I just want to say thank you. Spanky! Hey, who am I speaking with? Who'd you call? Envy? Yes.

Huh? Who'd you call? Hey, good morning, Breakfast Club. Good morning. What's the matter, Spanky? I had a little chip in my windshield, like the size of a cuticle. Uh-oh. I put the heat on, andy? I had a little chip in my windshield like the size of a cuticle. Uh-oh. I put the heat on, and now it's cracked all the way across.

Damn. What can you do about when you get a little crack like that? Well, when you get a little crack, you're supposed to call immediately, and they can repair it. But if you don't call immediately and it cracks all the way through, you got to replace it. You know how every culture has like a little thing to say to, you know, help, you know, cover something? Like if you have a hole in the radiator, you pour oatmeal, it'll stop it up. Yep. Well, my friend, my ex-girlfriend's brother, Puerto Rico, he told me, put a little piece

of duct tape. It'll save it. It'll save it. You know what? It won't crack. And I saved it, and it didn't work. Puerto Rico's going to put duct tape on everything. Look, duct tape does not work with everything.

I can't say generalize a whole group. They do. You know he has sneakers held up with duct tape. I don't know. I'm not lying. Look. So Do you know he has sneakers held up with duct tape? I don't know. I'm not lying. Look. So now you have to replace the whole windshield?

I have to go replace it tomorrow. Yeah, I can't drive because police will pick with me. Black people want to put Mercuricone on everything and Puerto Ricans want to put duct tape on everything. But duct tape can't,

you can't tape your car together. Like you see somebody driving and you see it with duct tape, it's usually Puerto Rican. I do. And it's a little tiny piece of duct tape, but you can't even tell. And it didn't work. I'm so mad. It didn't work.

I'm reading information on when you should repair it and when you gotta replace it. If the chip or crack can be covered by a dollar bill, you can repair it. I am going to Patterson tomorrow for $150. It's a Mustang convertible where normally it's like $400. So I'm going to get it done tomorrow.

Do you need an apartment in Patterson? No. And we have some for sale. Goodbye, Spanky. Bye. Have a good day, y'all. You too. Shout out to all of my Puerto Ricans.

My wife wants to fix everything with Duct Tape. That's how I know that. Anyway. Hello, who's this? Yeah, this is E Fresh from Boston. E, what's up, brother? I'm cool, but I'm cool. I just wanted to start off by spreading some positivity.

We'll tell you who is suing Showtime and why. And also, we'll talk about Meek Mill. He lost $100,000. We'll tell you what happened. All right, we'll get into that next. You've got to go to mode. Sweater, sweater, sweater. Sweater, sweater.

Yours doesn't? No, I got Simply Right checking from Santander Bank. Use the account once a month to waive the monthly fee. That's way better. Sorry, pony.

Respect adds up at SantanderBank.com Black Friday may be over, but at the Home Depot, we're just It's about time. What's going on? Rumor Report. Rumor Report. This is the Rumor Report.

Talk to them. With Angela Yee from The Breakfast Club. Well, yesterday was Trey Songz's birthday. And in addition to that, he put out two albums, 11 and 28, to celebrate that. So he had his birthday, but he gave us a present. He's 34 years old. Okay. And we have a couple of snippets for you.

Now here's the song Shooting Shots featuring Ty Dolla $ign. Let's tie down the sanitary lane. It sounds like he samples Missy. Can we get freaky tonight? I saw you over there getting freaky. You like that. Well, here he is with his boy Fab and Chris Brown, his other boy. And the song's called Don't Say Ish. Girl, it's making me slow. Can you cool down on me? I can't take no more. You know, but I know that you're free.

Girl, I won't tell a soul. Keep me on the low. I won't let them know. I'm gonna make sure. I'm safe, yeah, I'm safe, yeah, I'm safe. No, you're safe, you're safe with me, baby. And when he listened to the first song on Eleven, that song's called Drugs, and he samples Jodeci, Fiendin'. Oh, really?

Yeah. So I was just listening to it on the way to work, because I didn't know he was going to surprisingly drop these albums yesterday. So we got to catch up on that. That's a lot of music. How many songs on each album? Do you know? I don't know. I think there's 10 songs on Eleven.

Okay. Don't quote me, but I believe there's 10 songs. It's 38 minutes, so that one's pretty quick. Okay. And 28, I didn't get a chance to hear yet. All right. All right, so shout out to Trey Songz and happy birthday. Now, Bobby Brown is suing Showtime and BBC over the Whitney Houston documentary,

and that's because he says there was previously unseen footage that he never gave his approval of that both Bobby Brown and his late daughter, Bobby Christina Brown, never consented to have released. I thought with the documentaries, I thought that was the whole idea. They could just put things out and they didn't need clearance. I don't think you can be on something in a documentary of footage that you've never given your authority. Of yourself. Yeah. Okay, so they could have played it over, but the fact that it was actually him in that video, he can still?

It's unauthorized footage. So it has images of his other kids in there and minor children that he never consented to have his kids appear in the movie, Cannot Be Me, and his children never consented as well. I always thought that they shouldn't be allowed to do those documentaries. You shouldn't be able to just do a documentary on my life if I'm not involved with it. It happens all the time. And I think it's wrong. People write books about you and everything. I think it's wrong.

That's foul. But if they're giving false information, then you can sue for defamation, libel, slander. All right. Meek Mill talks about losing $100,000 to Drake in ping pong. Now, his album comes out this Friday. He hasn't been up here. Meek's making a lot of money. If you could play with ping pong for $100,000.

I feel like I would have won if that was me because I'm great at ping pong. Are you good at ping pong? I can't play ping pong for nada. Right. Oh, well, we should play for $100,000. Oh, no. So I think that's pretty interesting. It's great that they could go from beefing the way that they did to actually playing ping pong together.

And it sucks that Meek lost in that. Yeah, I heard an interview yesterday. He was saying that they were friends before this. So the fact that they're able to be friends again is a great thing. And they're able to do music with each other. I think that's dope. I think they both dope. I think they both get busy, and the fact that they can get over that little BS and start making music together,

I think is best for the culture. And he also talks about how the beef that he had with Drake was a very rough time in his life. He said, I was going through ish at the same time. I was caught up. I was getting high, going through media, public breakups. I've got the biggest rap beef going on, and a lot of people not in my favor. So I'm not even a good place. He said I had to revamp myself and just get to the money.

All right. He's doing a lot of radio stops. I didn't see the Breakfast Club or any of those stops, mate. Well, hit him up. Ain't that your boy? Yeah. All right. Now, we heard about these break-ins, right, in L.A.

Everybody was targeting all these celebrities. Who was doing it? Well, they have said that they've arrested four people in connection to that crime wave. If you guys remember, Rihanna's house got broken into. LeBron James, they were targeting Viola Davis. Well, now they say that there are seven new men, in addition to those four suspects originally, all between the ages of 18 and 25, that have been arrested and charged with various crimes. I'm glad they got caught.

They said the charges include everything from criminal street gang conspiracy, the first degree residential burglary, and home invasion robbery. They said that crew hit more than 24 different homes. That's a lot of work. That's a lot of work. But they got over, what, a million dollars worth of stuff, and they had other people's names on the list? That is scary.

Yeah, they said they had their sights set on at least 12 more people. So that's 12 people who, thank goodness, these guys got arrested before that could even happen. They really should have got hurt. You run up in somebody's crib, you should get hurt. There's no way. You run up in somebody's crib, somebody should have a gun and really hurt your ass.

Like, you shouldn't. Now, they said the key to solving this case, a neighbor of NFL star Robert Woods called the police to report a robbery at his house, and that's when they located the suspect. And they found other items connected to other high-profile cases during that time. Because there's a lot of stuff that was taken. Like, you know, if my mom gave me a watch and my dad gave me something before he passed away, you steal that.

You steal artifacts, things that are very, you know, close to my heart. And you're just stealing like there's nothing. No, you should get shot in the ass. Or even just being in someone's home and what kind of a violation is that? Absolutely. And then you start feeling very unsafe all the time. People move after things like that happen. That's why I got...

Because they can't even be in the house. That's why I got two big dogs. Yeah, I guess somebody, yeah, somebody, when I was out of town, somebody ran into me. But that's why I got two big dogs. When I'm not there, those dogs, one roams the property, one is inside the house. So if you make it through the property and get in the house, you got another one. And they will not let go until I tell them to let go. And I'm not going to tell them to let go.

All right. Well, there we go. There you have it. On that note, that's your rumor report. I'm Angela Yee. All right. Thank you, Miss Yee. Now, when we come back, we got front page news.

Now, also, Charlemagne is not here. He's in South Africa, or he's on his way to South Africa. So, during his donkey, we're going to let you give somebody donkey of the day. All right? So, you can call up right now if you want. 800-585-1051. If you want to give somebody donkey, it could be your mama, it could be your baby mama,

your baby daddy, your boss, your neighbor, it could be me, it could be you, it could be Charlemagne. If you want to give somebody donkey of the day, he's not here, so we're going to let you do it, alright? We'll do that in a little bit, and you can start calling now. And then we got front page news, we'll be talking about you. Let's talk about romaine lettuce. There's been all this controversy over whether

or not you can eat it. Well, we'll give you the update on whether or not you can have that Caesar salad. All right. We'll get into that next. Keep it locked. This is the Breakfast Club. Good morning. Good morning, everybody. It's DJ, MV, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are the Breakfast Club. Let's get in some front page news. Now, it's Thursday night football!

Tonight, the Cowboys take on the Saints. Also, shout out to the Brick City Lions. And the cheerleaders. Our sub team in Newark and the cheerleaders. They're heading out to Orlando, to Disney, for the playoffs and championship games. So congratulations. I know a lot of them are leaving today.

So good luck. They're going to be playing teams all across the country. So congratulations and good luck to the team and the be playing teams all across the country. So congratulations and good luck to the team and the cheerleaders. Alright, now what are we talking about, Ye? Well, people were very nervous to get those Caesar salads which they love so much because they're saying romaine lettuce was not safe

to eat because of an E. coli breakout, outbreak illnesses linked to that romaine lettuce. Well, now they are saying that only the California counties of Monterey, San Benito, San Luis Obispo, Santa Barbara, Santa Cruz, and Ventura are being investigated. So based on this information, they're telling consumers if your romaine lettuce was harvested from those six California counties, don't eat it anywhere else. You should be fine. Yeah, because they're even sending emails from schools like my kids' schools.

They're saying that, you know, for the next couple of months, they will not have romaine lettuce just in case. They want to make sure nobody gets sick. People got sick in 12 different states, 43 different people. So if you don't know where your romaine lettuce is from, don't eat it either if you're not sure. And let's talk about this male gel, this male birth control gel. Now it's not just on us to make sure we don't get pregnant. You guys as well have that responsibility. You can rub this gel on your back and on your shoulders.

It gets absorbed through your skin, and that gel will block the natural testosterone production in the testes, which will reduce sperm production to low or non-existent levels. I don't know how I feel about that. You put a gel on my back, so that means it has to go in my bloodstream to go to my testicles? What would our detox doctors say about that? They would say, hell no. Dr. Amun, Dr. Amsu, and Coach Jesse. They would say

hell no. Like, why would I put something on my back that goes into my system to kill my sperm? That just seems a little odd. Well, right now, researchers are enrolling about 420 couples to test the gel, and before this, they said for men, all you had for contraception was condoms or a vasectomy. Or the pull-out method.

Or, yes, the very ineffective pull-out method. Didn't work for me. I got five kids. Definitely didn't work for me. And you can also, I guess, do the whole thing with the timing. I tried that, too. That didn't work. I feel like you're always trying to have babies, though.

I never heard of you trying not to. I mean, I don't mind. Whenever you ever really, for real, tried to focus on not making a baby? Never. So then why would you say it doesn't work for you? You never tried to make it work? I mean, we just, we're a married couple. We have sex. Like, if we have a baby, we're like, yes. Right, so you don't pull out?

Well, no. So what are you talking about? It depends where I want to shoot it. Like, I don't want to go in the vagina all the time. Never mind. This is TMI. Did you just talk about... Never all the time. Never mind. This is TMI. Did you just talk about... Never mind. Wow. Never mind. Okay, that's your... Is it Freaky Friday yet? You asked. This got very awkward. So I told you.

Good morning, Gia. Alright, that's your front page news. Alright, now when we come back from... If you want evidence. From Love & Hip Hop New York, Yandy will be joining us. We'll kick it with Yandy when we come back. So don't move.

It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. Good morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God. We are The Breakfast Club. We got a special guest in the building. Yandy Smith. Yandy.

Hey. Hey, Yandy. What's happening? Good morning. Good morning. How you feeling? I'm blessed black and highly favored. That's a beautiful thing.

We only see you loving hip-hop time, so loving hip-hop is back. You're not tired of loving hip-hop yet? No, it doesn't have to be loving. You guys can invite me anytime. She was supposed to be here earlier, and it turned out you were like in another continent. Yeah, I was in China. No, I was in China. Yandy got a lot of other stuff going on, though.

Thank you. You're not tired of loving hip-hop yet, though? You want the truth? Yes. Sometimes, I am. What is up with you and Kimbella? I feel like they're pushing that storyline. And you know what?

I hate that. Because that's what I see. That's my sister. She don't act like it. Right. And that's my issue. I hate that when the camera's cut on. Especially with me.

I got beef. I never knew I had. People, I don't even know. They don't like me for the camera. And for me, it's just not that worth it. It's not worth it for me. I don't want to come on TV when I got so much other stuff to talk about, to talk about a beef that I really don't have.

You have beef with her? What happened? Why were y'all screaming at each other? What's the problem? I don't. And that's the issue. It's funny because I sit there and I look and I'm like, we family. This is beyond TV.

So I'm not going to allow myself to disrespect you, your children, your mother, your man because you're my sister. So when cameras get on certain people, when you're you know, sometimes, and I'm not saying this just for Kim, but sometimes your economic status matters with how far you'll go. Sometimes

your need to be famous will determine how far you'll go. So when you come to me with the, I'm like. So what was it about though? What was the, but like what happened?

Why was she mad and upset? It had to do with Jewels, right? This time that she was mad that you like went to talk to him. So the true story behind it is I worked with Jewels, you know, but back then.

You tried to book him up here a couple of times. Yes, tried to book him everywhere all the time. He never shows up. Yes, he does. Never showed up here. Never came up here. You guys are a hard crowd. Especially you. You tough. He never showed up. You never came up here. But, you know,

there was a lot of interference in my business and the person was overlapping when I was that was he's my family. She's my family. And the world's kept intertwining. So on the show in the past couple of years, you've seen us go head to head like about different things when it has to do with him. And I just got tired. It felt like it was almost a mental abuse that time when I'm caught in the middle of these situations with no cameras. And I just decided that I wanted a break. How do you handle

falling out with a close friend? It's like a bad breakup. It hurts. But you do it in real life months ago probably. And then when the cameras start back, you gotta replay it all over again. No, but that's the thing. In real life, it was like an amicable, you know what sis? I need a break. And that's what it was.

It was just like I just needed a break. I took a break. I took a quick little break from Juelz, but then I had to get back to work. So we made up quick because it was money to be had. But with her, I felt like I love you too much to argue about where Juelz is, what he's doing. I don't want to do that anymore. So I just said, let me just take a break.

And then I extended an olive branch for her birthday to say, sis, I don't want to do that anymore. So I just said, let me just take a break. And then I extended an olive branch for her birthday to say, sis, I love you. Happy birthday. I miss you. I told her it was supposed to be

in my heart and she went crazy online. Yeah, I saw that. And when I say that broke me to my, I was like, we don't do internet. I don't do it.

What do you mean she went crazy? Like, you haven't called me. She said you were like, fake. She was like, but that's the thing. Oh, you wish

a happy birthday online. I wish a happy birthday online. Because this is what we fake. She was like, but that's the thing. Oh, you wish a happy birthday online. I wish a happy birthday online. Because this is what we do. No, no, no. On Instagram. That's what we do. You know,

you have close friends. You stay up. And I'm like, I know we haven't spoken, but if I speak to you every day, if I don't, you're always going to be

one of my best friends. I love you to death. And oh, you haven't called. You could have sent me this. Don't be fake for the world to make the world think we friends.

I'm like, first of all, the world don't care. We ain't Oprah and Stedman. The world don't care that much if we friends or not. But I felt like we don't do this online. We bigger than this. You my sister.

So that's when I was like, oh, I'm good. That's a difficult situation to be in, though, because you're friends with her. You work with him. It's hard. And then how do you. And it's been that way for 10 years. And any time her and I have ever had an issue and it's been that way for 10 years and anytime her and I have ever had an issue it's been that right you know and it's hard

you know it's hard when you have someone that is involved and wants to know everything that's going on and then you have somebody that's on the other side that just wants to work you know if I'm in the studio and it happens to be a girl there happens to be a girl this or what he's not interested but if I'm posting and it looks crazy I don't want to get a girl there, happens to be a girl there, so what? He's not interested, but if I'm posting and it looks crazy, I don't want to get a call that somebody's going,

and I'm just like. Oh, like, who is that? Who in the studio with y'all? Whatever. That's girl code though, right? You should do that. But it's business as well. Not a business.

So as a manager, you're working. So as a manager, and this is something that I learned early on in management, that I don't want to get close to girlfriends, wives, because if you call on my phone,

oh, he's not picking up his phone in the hotel room, and I'm like, well, I don't know where he is. I'm here to work. After a certain hour, I'm in my room, he's in his room. No, I'm not knocking on his doors. Don't ask me to knock on his door. I'm not doing all that. This is a good debate.

What comes first, business or girl? And that's exactly where I felt like, you know what? Depends what came first. That is what came first, but that's not how I felt. I started to really feel like, nah, this is my sister. If she's mad, I'm mad with her. And we might be working, and I'm like, nah, she's hurt. What's happening?

And it started to, even with my business with him, it just started to interfere. He'd be like, yo, Yandy, I'm not talking about that. We're here to do work. And I'm like, wait, I'm getting flipped on by him. I'm getting flipped on by her. I tell him, though, like, you do your job. You're my manager. And that's what I heard. And that's what I heard. And I was like, you know what? And then when it got irate between me

and him, and I heard one or two curse words, I don't do that well, I was like, oh, no, you're not going to talk to me like I'm some chopliff on the side of the road. It's not going to happen. So what about when Juelz is battling drugs? And if you're a manager and you're like, yo, Juelz, you need to slow down on the drug use. He tells you mind your business. Where were you during that part?

Because that affects the business. What if he tells you mind your business? He's never told me mind my business for that. And like I said, that's my family. We've had many family situations, me, him, Kim, his mom mom dealing with different things and because i stick to the sister code the loyalty code if that's not something he's spoken about yet i'm not gonna speak about it i don't really know on the show how far he's going in the conversation so i admitted he had a problem he did say that yeah so lean or something they were in therapy and he did talk about being addicted

to drugs oh see i haven't seen that so i wasn't gonna sit up here and talk about being addicted to drugs. Oh, see, I haven't seen that. So I wasn't going to sit up here and talk about things that he hasn't shared yet. You and Mona don't watch the edits together no more? Mm. Oh, this is getting good. Let's finish Jewel's and go to Mona. So you ever talk to Jewel's and you told him, yo, chill out with the drugs? We've all had conversations. Like when you're trying to be productive and I want you to get in the studio,

I want you to win, I want you to work, And you just, you know, somewhere else is hard. All right, when we come back, we got more with Yandy Smith. We'll find out about her relationship with Mona Scott. Are they still cool? You know she was Mona's assistant. So keep it locked. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning.

Everybody, it's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God. We are The Breakfast Club. We have Yandy Smith from Loving Hip Hop New York in the building. Charlamagne? All right, let's get to this. You hate Mona now. What happened? I don't hate Mona. You made a face when I said something. No, you asked me, do me and Mona sit and watch the edits.

I made a face because I wish I could. I wish I could. She don't let you know? We started this together. We were in the rooms. I'm like, Mona, I need your help with this show. Come on. Let's do this. This is a situation that we walked in the door together. So what happened? First season I was on the producing side. I guess I

traded in my producer hat for talent. Jesus Christ, Yanni. What were you thinking? I was stupid. I was young and I was stupid. I didn't have the proper guidance to sit me down and say, don't go for the bigger check. Go for ownership. Mona! Mona posted school years ago. Mona was like, I'll take your part. So who came up

with the concept of Love & Hip Hop? I heard it was Jim. Originally, we had your part. So who came up with the concept of Love & Hip Hop? I heard it was Jim. Originally, we had it. Jim and I came up with the concept. It was called Keeping Up With The Joneses. We pitched it to Jim Ackerman. He loved it. I got a development deal over at VH1.

We started shooting it, and this was when life started happening with Jim. You know, the stuff happened with Max B. And Stack Bundles got killed. And Jim was like, I don't want these cameras while I'm going to Stack's funeral. I don't want these cameras in my face while I'm dealing with my artists. And they were like, okay, we're in a car. We need your mom here. We need Chrissy here.

We need this. And he was like, no, I'm not doing this. This is not what I signed up for. It's too intrusive. I'm not doing this. And I'm like, Mona, it was one of those dinners, tears in my eyes. I'm like, Mona, these people gave me all this money and I don't want to lose my deal. My client don't want to do it no more. And I'm like, Mona, it was one of those dinners, tears in my eyes. I'm like, Mona, these people gave me all this money, and I don't want to lose my deal.

My client don't want to do it no more. And I'm like, I need help. And she's like, well, I've been pitching this show about the women in hip-hop to, you know, this particular network. You know, maybe we can combine. And I was like, listen, maybe it can be some way that. Yeah, yeah, yeah. It can be an ensemble cast, but they got to be the main family.

And she's like, let me see. Let me talk to the other people I have signed up for my show. And I remember Missy was going on tour, and it was stay here, shoot the show, go on tour with Missy. She was going on tour for like three months, and I was like, I'm going to get this check. I need this check. And I was like, you know, with this, we weren't getting our checks until the episode cut. So I was like, let me go get this money with Missy. I know I'm going to still get my producer check over here.

So that first season of shooting, I came back the day Chrissy proposed to Jim. And I was like, this is amazing. This is great content. This show is beautiful. I was so happy. I felt like, but I had no idea what was shot. I had no idea, you know, what the storylines were because I was on tour. I remember the opening day and I watched it and I was like,

I don't see my name in the credit anywhere. I was like, okay, oversight, mistake, okay, whatever. So the next season, I still got paid, whatever. Brushed it off, moved on next season. I think Mona and myself collectively felt like we wanted to show the show was great, but we also wanted to show a

woman that wasn't attached to necessarily a man in hip-hop that was also successful during her thing that kind of came up through, you know, whatever. But still related to what was going on. But still related to what was going on. And we're looking, we're thinking like, oh, this person would be great. Angela Yee would be great.

That person would be great. And Mona looks at me like, I think you would be great. I'm like, hell no, Mona. I was like, I don't dress right. I barely do my hair. I don't wear makeup. I don't get my nails done.

I forgot, Mona did hit me up and try to get me to do the costume. So what else? I want to get to the part where Mona finessed you out of the production credit. No, I don't think she finessed me she definitely finessed you if that's your friend

and you came to her with an idea and then as things evolve and grow she's supposed to school you to the other side of the game like she's not supposed to let you get X'd

out of production credits I don't think so anyway you don't think so either you know business happens nah it shouldn't if the story is true and that's your idea

it's a little if that's your friend, I put it in the right place. Well, it was, we merged ideas, yeah. So what's your relationship now? Mona will always be, to me,

someone that guided me in this business. I came green, I was 20 years old, and I was her assistant. I was cleaning her office. You know, shortly thereafter,

I became her assistant. Then I became a manager. Then I was touring the world. I was on tour with Missy, Beyonce, all these amazing things I was able to do. What about now, though? Do y'all follow each other on social media? We do. Yeah.

Mona is family. Does she like your post? Yes. When the last time she left a comment. Oh, my gosh. And you said a happy Thanksgiving. We just did a huge turkey drive together. There you go.

And we were able to feed over a thousand families, and we raised a huge turkey drive together. There you go. And we were able to feed over a thousand families, and we raised a bunch of money together. But if you have another idea, Mona will be there for you to help you get your project through. You trust her? Yeah, I do. Well, you probably also know a lot more about business yourself now. I feel like her and I both, I don't blame Mona for that at all

because I had a lawyer. I asked for my lawyer, my music lawyer that I had, asked for an executive producer credit. VH1 said no. Well, see, you had a music lawyer that handled the TV stuff. That's not going to work. Handled the TV. Dumb.

I was young. I was 25. Right. Dumb. And now you've gotten so much experience, so now you know how to make it happen. Exactly. And you've been very successful.

Nah, B. You might only have one hit. And I'm not saying that foully. I don't. I have several more Exactly. And you've been very successful producing and everything. You might only have one hit and I'm not saying that for Ali. I don't. I have several more comments. But you know what it is? It's like,

love of hip hop is the gift that keeps on giving. And I'm sure Yandy does not feel like she isn't going to create other things. We did Icon of the Island. We did.

We had a great show and I'm a producer on that show. I get what NB said. Y'all can sit here and talk all that talk. No, no, no. But I don't feel like that at all.

Because you know what? I feel like I'm okay't feel like that at all. Because you know what? I feel like I'm okay with not being that attached. It's because there's so much negative stigma that comes with this show. The love of hip-hop turned trashy. It does. I think it's gotten better the past couple years. This season looks like it's better. It's starting to get better.

But it turned trashy. It turned into a fight fest. It turned into disrespect. It turned into a lot of people that weren't really connected to hip hop. Why are you on there arguing? Who's arguing? You don't see me arguing. Yeah, I know, but one-sided arguments.

A lot of times it's one side. I be sitting there like this, and they always say, why you got the dumb face like you? Because I'm not going to sit here, curse you out, go back and forth, do all this in your face. What is it going to do for all those little girls out there? That's a part of my EGO put network. Partners uplifting our daughters when they see me cursing you

out because I don't like that you spoke to me nasty. Right. That whole baby mama season, there were so many things that took me out of my character. I really can't play too much when it comes to kids and my man. Those things be like, it's touchy for me. I get you. But every night I laid home, I lay down and I would be

like hurt, not by them, hurt by me. I just wanted to off camera call them and be like can we just get along? Can we just bring the kids back together? Can we? But because it was TV and because I felt like oh you're gonna record my conversation or you're gonna post this on Instagram. I'm like I'm not calling you.

And then I gotta go on TV and I gotta act like I hate you. Because when you come on the set, you know, everyone goes through like a prep. This is what's going to happen. This person's about to come and sit down with you. Right. And I'm like, so I'm already on guard, like, what they done told you. And they might be like, you know, in our last scene, this one said this about you.

And now you're mad. So I'm mad. I won't get mad. I'm like, well, I don't even know what they done told you. But I'm like ready for war. Like, what's happening today? And then you'd be thinking, I don't want to look soft either because they're going to come by.

Oh, no, but this season here, my new ish is I'm sitting there looking at you real dumb in the face. You clapping, you doing... Okay. Because you know what I got to think about now?

I got a 16-year-old. Infinity. That watches this show. All right, we got more with Yandy Smith from Love & Hip Hop when we come back. You know she's a foster mom

or she's about to be. We'll talk to her about it when we come back. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy Angela Yee. Charlamagne Tha God. We are The Breakfast Club. We have Yandy Smith still in the building from Love & Hip Hop. Yee. I damn near cried when I

seen you do that first post, you know, with your adopted daughter. Well, I didn't adopt her yet. It's a process. But you're working on it. I'm working on it. Right now, I'm in the process of becoming a foster mom. So there's, like, classes I'm taking and court once a month. They come to my house every month. I would think the way you're perceived

on Love & Hip Hop could affect that. The way the show is perceived. So far, that hasn't come up, thank God. She comes home every day. Mom, I read this on social media, or I saw this, or what's going on with this? And, you know, she even asked me about Kim, and she's like, oh, we got a problem? I'm like, you don't have no problem. You don't have no problem.

You haven't met her. That's your auntie. You don't know it yet. Don't look at none of this TV stuff and think that that's who she is. But you got to think, to her, you saved her life. So she's going to catch a bullet for you if she got to. No, I don't want to catch no bullet. Not to have to do that.

So you're not going to bring infinity on the show, safe to say. Let me tell you something. I begged her. She's like, no, I want to be an advocate for girls like me. She's doing a PSA right now. Tiffany Haddish, if you're listening, she wants you so bad on her PSA. She wanted to do this big commercial. And I actually, we had a conversation

and I told her, even the day we were shooting, it was a situation that happened the first day and I was like, this is not for you. I said, I don't want you having to deal with public opinion and social media. And she's like, well, how else am I going to be an advocate for girls like me if no one knows my story? And I had to explain to her, like, there

are cruel people out there in the world and there's going to be somebody that's going to hate your hair, hate that your clothes are like this. Saying that it's a publicity stunt. Saying, oh, when I say that hurts me to my core, when people say that, like, this is not something that stops when the cameras stop. Just thinking about it makes me emotional. Because she has to see these comments. She has to read them. And I never want her to feel like I'm doing this

for publicity or because I'm storyline. I make so much money outside of loving hip-hop. I don't need a storyline. And that's why I'm boring. That's why I don't fight. That's why I don't go and do all this extra stuff. But what you're doing is amazing and it's going to encourage

people to do the same thing. Cut your eyebrows. And that's what you want. You want to encourage people to do what you're doing and help, you know? Before we go any further, get that booger. Oh, damn it. I'm going to f*** with you. He's lying. He does that all the time. How's Man DC doing?

How's he doing? Oh, God. He's good. He's crazy. He's crazy. He was mad at me the other day because I posted a picture. He felt like I had too much shoulder showing. What?

You got nice shoulders. So that's the type of stuff. He needs something to beef about, though. You know? He needs something to beef about. No. He should have known he was watching. Cover that show. So that's the type of stuff. He needs something to beef about, though. He needs something to beef about. No. Cover that shield up. That's the type of stuff

I got problems with. Come on now. Nah, he don't know. We passed that. I don't hang up on him. He don't hang up on me. We got past that. He'll be home next year.

Word, word, word. How long has he been down? Collectively, it's been almost five years, but that's between both times. Damn, it's been almost five years. But that's between both times. Because my daughter, he left when Skylar was turning one. Skylar will be four in a few weeks.

It's a drop in a bucket to a lifetime you got to spend together. So yeah, family is family. And I'm excited about this new part of my family. Infinity is amazing. We met each other like three years ago. Yeah, she was in seventh grade. She's in seventh grade now. And she was just a part of my mentorship program.

What made you want to adopt? I don't know. That's a big step. And of all the young girls that you mentor, Infinity was the one. Well, Infinity, she just stood out. The crazy thing is I didn't even know Infinity was a foster child. And one day she called me after Black Girls Rock Camp, and I was like, no, I'm coming to get you right now. I'm coming to get you.

And I thought that was like a Thursday or a Friday, and I was like, she stayed for the weekend. One day turned into three days, turned into five, then a week, two weeks. And I was like, wait, wait, wait. I got a call from someone that told me, listen, this is illegal. So you halfway kidnapped her, legally.

That's exactly, that's exactly. They said I'm harboring a minor. I was like, and it was like, she needs to leave your house today. And they looked up her name. They was like, oh, she is AWOL. And they're like, that meant a cop probably went out and they're looking for her. She's probably a missing person right now. I was like, oh, she is AWOL. And they're like, that meant a cop probably went out, and they're looking for her.

She's probably a missing person right now. I was like, what? And they were like, she got to go. You got to bring her to the, there's a group home here, or you can bring her to this foster. And I had the conversation with her. Lord, that was the most emotional, draining conversation I've ever had because I had to stare her in her face.

Tell her that she got to leave, or that you got to take her to some place that she doesn't want to go. And that girl telling me, you giving up on me, like everybody else. And I was like, oh no, I can't. I got to figure this out. And then her lawyer gave us an emergency court date. So I went to court. They're like, listen, these are your options. You have to bring her back. You can make her a resident. You can be a visiting resident for her up to 30 days. And then in that process, you can

become a foster mother. So I'm going through the process. Right now, I am a visiting residential house for her, but they're allowing her to stay with me. It's amazing to me, after they do the background checks and they see that somebody is able to care for a child, they still make it so difficult.

Oh, my gosh. Why wouldn't they want that? This is so difficult. And I'm just like, you guys see that I have no history with children. I really don't mind you coming to my house whenever you need to. They got to do that. But it's like, but. But once you do the background checks and you see they're stable and straight, it's really cool. But let me tell you something.

Any little thing, a paperwork glitch, a wrong name, she can be taken out my house and moved. So it's like every day, it's like she's living in fear. And that's not even healthy for a child's development. For every million people that do good, there's that one person that has a bad intention. And they gotta make sure that that one person does not hurt a child. So I understand why

they go over and beyond. And you hear these cases all the time and people be like, well, how come nobody knew? But it's funny you say that because even within even with the one-month visit, when there is no structure and there's no relationship with these girls, you really don't know what's going on in that house. That's true. And it's more than just coming to a home visit for an hour.

Who are these young girls talking to? Who's an outlet so they can tell the truth about what's happening when the lights cut off? Because so many of us don't know. We don't know those stories. We think, oh, she's out of, you know, the home where it was pain. Now she's in a foster care. But a lot of times, these foster homes, it's not just one child. It's one child. It's a money factory

where these people are getting money and they put all these children with all this trauma in a household together. And you think that there's not going to be trauma within that house? So it's like, it's a system that needs a lot of work. She wants to be that advocate in a household where it's just like, yeah, just because I'm in foster care doesn't mean I'm safe.

Right. And, you know, I applaud that. Let them light on a broken system and let them know what can be improved on from somebody who's lived and is living through it. Exactly. Exactly. Well, thank you so much, Andy. Thank you guys for having me.

I'm so mad y'all made me cry up here We love it Don't be asking questions About things that matter to me We are so happy to have this here I appreciate you guys It's the Breakfast Club It's Yandy

I was listening to Trey Songz album On my laptop Oh you feeling sexy over there? I was like Why am I listening to Cardi B It's Trey Songz I was listening to Trey Songz album Trey Songz album came out yesterday

He dropped a double album on his birthday. So happy birthday to Trey. 11 and 28. I was trying to listen to the whole album. That's not going to happen. Nah, it's got mad songs. But anyway, let's get to the rumors. Let's talk Kevin Hart.

It's time. She's spilling the tea. This is the Rumor Report with Angela Yee on The Breakfast Club. Well, remember we talked about how people were upset about Kevin Hart having a Cowboys and Indians theme party. Yes. For his son, Kenzo, turning one. Well, he's on his SiriusXM show, Straight From the Heart. And he talked about people who were offended.

This is what he had to say. The reason why I'm even bringing this dumb shit up, because it shows just how stupid our world is becoming with opinion. People are at a point of an all time high to throw racial judgment into the development of a one year old's birthday party. This isn't something that has just started. This isn't a racial slur. This is a game that's been played for years. I'm about to be 40 years old. I remember at the age 6, 7,

playing these dumbass games. Yeah, playing cowboys and Indians. And I'm always confused with certain opinions as well. And you dress up like a cowboy. Shut up. Because, you know, even when we had Native Americans up here and they were talking about the garb that people wear

and they said when people wear it, it's disrespectful. You're talking about our girl Queen Yonasta. Yes. But then when I go to the mall, I see Native Americans actually about the garb that people wear. And they said when people wear it, it's disrespectful. You're talking about our girl Queen Yonasta. Yes. But then when I go to the mall, I see Native Americans actually selling the garb to people to wear. So I'm confused. If it's disrespectful to wear the garb, then why sell it to me? You know, I'm confused.

Same thing with the military. When the military gets mad and the vets get mad for people wearing the jackets and things like that. But they sell it at all the Army and Navy shops for people to wear. So I'd be confused sometimes with that stuff. Just relax, Envy, all right? Don't do any of those things. I'm not going to wear any garb, okay? Yeah, don't wear any garbs.

All right. All right. Now let's discuss Meek Mill. Now, he was on Big Boy, and he talked about Tekashi 6ix9ine. And the reason I'm doing this story first, I'm going to tell you what Meek Mill had to say about Tekashi, and then I'm going to tell you the update in Tekashi's situation. Okay. I seen him one time

and I was like, yo, I'm going to holler at you real quick. He was like, all right, I'm going to holler at you in a second. And I was going to tell him

like things not talking about prison, just like, yo, stop putting that energy out. You get money now. Nobody want to live like that. You can't live with 10 security guards forever.

The charge he got is a little crazy. He facing like life in prison. Them people know that he ain't responsible for all the things them people around him was doing. I think he got is a little crazy. He might be facing life in prison. Them people know that he ain't responsible for all the things them people around him was doing. I think he's a good kid for real, for real, and got caught up in the internet and trolling and things like that.

I think we all said that. I think he is a good kid. I think he got caught up in trying to make himself hot, and it worked, and he continued to do it and went too far. I think he got himself in a dangerous situation that, now, when you hear this, because they have these Takashi 6ix9ine wiretaps between his ex-crew members, and apparently

they definitely were threatening him. Now, on this conversation, one of the taps was on Jamel Jones, who is Mel Murda, a former member of 6ix9ine's inner circle, who's arrested right now. And this is after the Breakfast Club interview, and during this interview, he's talking to Shadi, and they're is after the Breakfast Club interview. And during this interview, he's talking

to Shadi, and they're talking about the Breakfast Club. They said that Tekashi's trying to dry snitch at the same time, but he keeps saying F Treyway, F that N-word Treyway, ain't no N-word Treyway, F Treyway. And then they said, I'ma feed him, though. And then they said, yo, what you doing? Damn, I don't even want to talk on the phone,

homie. We gotta meet up and talk. And so they're talking about how he's got to get violated, super violated, ain't no much he could really do unless he run around with 100 armed securities all day. He ain't got enough money for that. That's a fact. He just canceled all his shows and he ain't a gang member no more. Nah, he ain't nothing.

So definitely it seems like they're talking about violating him, feeding him and all of that. Yeah. And like I said, a bad situation. You started off with them, and then you try to denounce them, and it's a problem. It's a sticky situation. Very sticky. Now, on the bright side of things.

Who, Tekashi? Yeah. What? The Dummy Boy album dropped, and all four, the top slots are Tekashi. Right. One, two, three, and four, so congratulations to him. He also has eight and nine on the top ten, so that means he has, two, three, and four. So congratulations to him. He also has eight and nine on the top ten. So that

means he has, what, six songs? That's right. On the top ten. So that's a big deal for him. Well, he can make some music. He knows how to make some records. Right. And he also got his girlfriend, even though he was behind bars, a birthday present. He got her a Rolex. So she actually posted it and thanked him. Okay. Even though he's not there.

His baby mother, right? Yeah, taking care of her, Jade. Okay. All right, well, I'm Angela Yee, and that's your rumor report. All right, thank you, Miss Yee. Now, when we come back, donkey of the day, 800-585-1051. Charlemagne is not here today. He's actually in South Africa. He's on his way to Johannesburg, I should say.

I did because I took my name out. Well, that means you need to get it. 800-585-1051. Someone's definitely giving you donkey of the day today. No, no, no. As a matter of fact, let me make sure of that. 800-585-1051. Call us right now to give Envy donkey of the day.

Stop it, man. It's the Breakfast Club.

Good morning. Charlemagne, say the gang Donkey of the Day. Charlemagne. You are a donkey. It's time for Donkey of the Day. Donkey of the Day does not discriminate.

I might not have the song of the day, but I got the donkey of the day. So if you ever feel I need to be a donkey, man, hit me with the heat. It's the Breakfast Club, bitch. Who's donkey of the day today? That's right. Charlamagne is not here, so

if you want to give somebody donkey of the day, phone lines are open. 800-585-1051. Hello, who's this? Uh, J.W. What's up, J.W.? Who you want to give donkey to, bro? To my mama. Your mama? What did your mom do? What'd she do?

Well, she called me a week after Thanksgiving. Knowing that I worked on Thanksgiving, called me and blessed me out because I didn't bring her grandchildren to her Thanksgiving dinner. But why you didn't bring your grandchildren? He was working. I was at work.

I was 300 miles away from home. Oh. Was she drinking when she called you? Well, no. Because she knew I was working. She knew I had at work. I was 300 miles away from home. Oh. Was she drinking when she called you? Well, no. Because she knew I was working. She knew I had to work. She could have took her sorry ass and gotten in the truck. Don't call your mama sorry ass.

How old is your mama? 54. Are you sure she wasn't having a little drink and was feeling a little like, let me call him and curse him out? Why you call your mama sorry? She is sorry. You know what? Goodbye.

She gonna curse you out again. Hello, who's this? Yo, the name is MG. MG, who you wanna give donkey to, bro? Well, first of all, actually, I just wanna say good morning to y'all. Good morning to you, good morning to DJ Envy. Good morning. And at the same time, I gotta give the donkey of the day to DJ Envy, man. Uh-oh. Oh, boy.

The reason why is because of that very, very stupid comment you made this morning, DJ Envy. Which one? Which one? Because there's so many to choose from. That's funny for y'all. F y'all, go ahead. Okay, DJ. Okay, DJ Envy.

Anyway, I'm talking about that stupid comment that you made about the dudes that got to get shot because they were doing all these shrieks of robberies. And I'm like, listen, DJ Envy, I 100% understand the feeling. You know, you mad that, you know, people robbed you and et cetera, et cetera. But come on. You don't equate somebody's life to jewelry or precious artifacts or whatever the case may be.

Yeah, but if somebody does break into your home. I didn't say kill. I said shot in the ass. I said if somebody breaks into my house and tries to rob me and comes in my house with my kids and my family laying,

I think they should get shot in the ass. No, no, no, no. Listen, I get that. I get that. I didn't say kill. A little butt shot. I've been robbed, too.

Okay, Envy, so you're going to give somebody a butt shot? See? Wow. I can't take you guys serious. Somebody's definitely going to break into your house.

Nah, what's up, bro? Hey, what's up, what's up, what's up? Who you want to give Donkey to, man? I want to give Donkey the day to Donald Trump. Oh, he gets that

all the time. Why? Yeah, because if you heard recently how he was sending threats to GM Motors, how you basically going to shut him down

because they was shutting down these couple job sites that they had and they was letting those jobs that you quote-unquote worked hard for.

All right, no doubt. Cheats! Hey, what's up, baby? How we doing? Good morning. What's up, bro? Who you want to give Donkey to? I want to give Donkey a day to pop 105.1, man.

They play the same songs over and over and over. It's crazy. Son, come on. You don't like the goaling joint? I'll give him Donkey, too. Hee-haw. Oh, my God. If I were in Juice WRLD one more time.

You don't like Juice WRLD? A goalie? He probably used to. I like it, but you got to play it over and over and over. What do you want to hear? I want to hear some G Herbo. I want to hear some Tory Lanez. It's mad.

Other new music out. I don't understand it, man. You're right. What about Lil Baby Drake? Yes, indeed. Nah, no Drake. No Drake. All right, I got you.

Drake coming up next. See? We play what you want, bro. Chill, Emory, chill. All right, man. See? We Drake. No Drake. All right, I got you. Drake coming up next. See, we play what you want, bro. Chill, Em, you chill. All right, man. See, we here for the people. No? All right.

All right, when we come back, ask Yee. 800-585-1051. If you need relationship advice or any type of advice, we got you, all right? Now, this is straight up the request line. My man wanted to hear that new Drake and new Lil Baby. Yes, indeed. There you go. It's the Breakfast Club. DJ Envy, Angela Yee,

Charlamagne Tha God, we are the Breakfast Club. It's time for Ask Yee. Hello, who's this? Oh my goodness, I can't believe I'm on the radio. This is Brittany. Hey, Brittany, what's your question for Yee? So, I have a boyfriend that's currently incarcerated. I've been with him for about 11 years. We share a son together.

He's been in jail for about four years now. And I've been dealing with someone else in the meantime. For how long? For about two years. Okay. We're not official or anything like that. We just kind of mess around. He does not know exactly about my daughter's, my son's father, I'm sorry.

But he does know that he's in the picture, not as in the relationship that I have already with him. He'll be home in about two to three months. And he's going to be coming back to live with me. I don't know what to do because I don't want to lose this other person. But at the same time, I don't know. I just, I'm confused. So here's what you got to do, babe, Brittany. Just be honest.

Tell the guy that you're, the side guy that you're not in a relationship with, that you haven't really given him the full picture. Tell him what's going on, first of all, because he deserves to know that. He deserves to know that, you know, your boyfriend is coming out of jail in a couple of months because that's something that, what if he's going to show up and have flowers on your doorstep and then now... That's what I'm fearful of.

Okay, so that's why you have to let him know. Because there's never a future for you two if you're not honest with him right now. So you have to tell him that. And it might make him be like, I don't know about this, which you have to accept. The thing that I'm fearful of, too, is, okay, what if he comes home and I end up wanting to be with him? And you're not going to know that.

That's a what-if situation that you're going to have to deal with when it happens. But what you need to do is let this side piece guy know what's going on. And when your man does come home, because he is coming home to your house where you live with your child, you need to make sure that things are all clear. Maybe you'll want to still be with him.

Maybe you won't, but you're not going to know that until he comes home. Okay. So in the meantime, there's no decision to be made here. But what does have to be done is you have to tell this guy that he's coming home. So he's aware.

So he knows maybe I don't want to be with you in this situation. Maybe he's going to be horrified that you haven't told him this in two years. My gosh. You're right. Okay. Thanks so much. No problem, Britt. All right.

Ask Yee. 800-585-1051. If you need relationship advice, hit her now. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. Good morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club.

We're in the middle of Ask Yee. Hello, who's this? Hey, this is Thomas calling from Houston. I'd like to talk to Angela Yee. Thomas, what's up? What's your question for Yee? Hey, Yee. I was just checking out.

Of course, you know, much love and respect to y'all, Breakfast Club, man. Me and my whole family listen to y'all every single day. Thank you. No doubt, man. But I listen to y'all. Y'all always got something positive in y'all breakfast club man me and my whole family listen to y'all every single day no doubt man but i i listen to y'all y'all always got something positive y'all the reason i actually started my little podcast on anchor but the reason why i'm calling is because i'm trying to find out what would you do man i'm trying to start you know i've been writing a book for about a year now i'm doing starting this podcast what would you suggest to get like try to get off the ground you know for the average person because you know I'm just a regular working Joe, man,

but it seems like the only avenues I can use is Facebook and Instagram. I don't know no different. I have no better insights or something. To get your podcast off the ground or your book? What do you mean? Well, the podcast, I want to, yeah, basically trying to get more listeners and stuff. Well, a few different things. How often do you put the podcast out?

Well, I only do it, I started out every week and then now I do it like twice a week, I mean twice a month or every two weeks. Okay, so is it a specific date and time that it drops? Yeah, well I do it every other Thursday. I drop it at like six o'clock in the afternoon, Houston time. All right, so one thing I'll say that's very important when you have something like that is to be consistent and make sure that it comes out when it's supposed to come out so that the people who you do have that are listening, right, are going to be able to get it when they expect it. And also be patient. Sometimes I think we want things to happen really quickly. We want to have this huge audience right

away. And if you don't see results, it can get discouraging. And then, you know, a lot of people have those growing pains in the beginning and you should always be listening to it and making sure you figure out ways that you can make it better. Another thing is, like, what's your podcast about? Because you haven't even said the name of it, and right now you're on The Breakfast Club. I know, right? You're right. It's the name of the podcast, Let's Talk About It. And I mainly focus on relationships and stuff like that, love and things of that nature.

I go over different, you know, situations that I may go through in my marriage or different stuff that, you know, people don't talk about. So, you know, I tapped in. It's something that I've been, you know, dealing with people for, like, pretty much all my life. Now, people love discussing relationships. Do you have guests on there ever? Yeah, I had a couple guests. You know, I mean, just like my friends and stuff like that.

Which is great. Yeah, it got a pretty good response, too. You know, it really did. And, you know, I think most of the majority of it is just not, you know, I see a lot of stuff going on. You're like, man, I want to get to that level, you know. And you got to be patient. I'm telling you, like, you have to be consistent.

You have to be patient. And you have to work really hard at it. So I would say this. The more guests you have on, that's more of an audience for you. When you bring your friends on and then they tell people, well, I was just on the podcast and they spread the word about it

and then they have their friends listening and you should also make sure you're posting things about it. Go on Facebook Live. Anybody can do that. Go on Instagram Live while you're doing those things so you guys can talk about it.

Post some of the clips from those live shows on your page. You know, make sure you're asking questions. Let it be something that people feel involved in with these discussions. Post something where people could weigh in. Do a poll. Do things like that on social media to promote it. But just make sure that you keep at it.

Don't get discouraged. And don't think that you're going to be at the level that other people are at right away. Right, right. I appreciate that, man. And, you know, that's the point I'm saying, man. And hopefully I can do it. Your phone sounds terrible now. I appreciate that, man. Your phone sounds terrible now. I don't know what just happened. Your phone sounds horrible, bro. Alright, alright. Let's talk about it. Ask Yee.

800-585-1051. If you got a question for Yee, you can call her now. We got rumors on the way, Yee? Yes, we're going to talk about Will Smith. What are some of the downsides to his fame? Find out what he has to say. Alright, we'll get into that when we come back. Keep it locked. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. Listen up. It's just the end. All the gossip.

The Rumor Report. With Angela Yee. It's The Rumor Report. The Breakfast Club. Yes, and that's where Charlamagne is right now. Now, Beyonce has penned an open letter to Nelson Mandela in light of the Global Citizens Mandela 100. She said, my entire family holds you in high regard.

Now, she goes on to talk about first meeting him in 2004 at an AIDS benefit concert in Cape Town. She said, the impact you have had on my life resonates with me today and every day. Your kindness and gratitude for every experience and your ability to forgive are lessons I have learned and will pass on to my three children. And your ability to forgive are lessons I have learned and will pass on to my three children. She goes on to say, as we celebrate the Global Citizen Festival Mandela 100, honoring your centennial year, I promise you that we have made your dreams our own. And one thing I would say, if you haven't been to South Africa, definitely try to make it out there. I want to go to Cape Town. I haven't been there yet. Oh, man, it's beautiful. It's probably one of the best places I've been. I go twice a year. I really enjoy it, whether it's Johannesburg, whether it's Cape Town,

just to see what Nelson Mandela was raised and the house he grew up in. It's just so beautiful and amazing. If you ever get a chance, it's a long flight, but you will definitely, definitely love it. It's a nice flight to get a nap on. Absolutely. I slept for 11 hours straight on my flight. Straight. I did take a sleeping pill, though.

Oh, no. I could sleep 12, 13 hours with no sleeping pill. I just knock out. All right. And shout out to Will Smith. You know, everybody's obsessed with his life on social media.

Well, he actually gave some advice about being famous and what some of the pitfalls are, what he doesn't like about it. And here's what he had to say to his best friend's daughter. The life that I have now is a life that I've always dreamed about.

I've built and struggled and fought to have it be just like it is. I love being famous. But then there's definitely the other side. I get sued probably 15 times a year. There are absolutely painful aspects of this life. I've got to get my nephew to walk Red Square. It's just that there's 10,000 people here right now. Wow. Getting sued that many times? That sucks.

Keep playing around, Envy. How many times you been sued? A couple, but I ain't like it. I definitely don't like it. Alright, well, when you get as famous as Will Smith, you'll get sued way more. I don't want to be famous. I'm retiring. I just, yeah, I'm retiring. Alright, and I know y'all all love bagels, but there's one person who said he's never had a bagel until for his acting career he had to eat one.

Here's what he had to say, and this is Ice-T. On the show, they wanted me to eat a bagel. I said, I don't eat bagels. But it was in the script, so, you know, I just did it. But I acted like I ate it. I didn't eat it. So then on Twitter, somebody goes, why that kind of bagel? I said, because it was in the script. Then they said, what's your favorite?

And I said, I've never had a bagel. And then everybody lost their goddamn mind. Then I said, I've never had coffee either. So I don't know why that's so hard for people to believe. You know what's crazy? I've never had coffee in my life. Have you ever had espresso? No.

So I sometimes will have an espresso. If I'm driving somewhere and say I'm exhausted and I need to stay up, I will get a little shot of espresso. And it's like such a small shot, but it definitely will perk you up. I've probably had espresso about 15 times in my life, but I've never had coffee either. I've never had espresso, coffee. What else do people drink? A cappuccino. Cappuccino. I don't even drink tea. A latte. I don't even drinkppuccino. Cappuccino. I don't even drink tea.

A latte. I don't even drink warm tea. Oh, I love tea. I don't drink none of that. I drink tea every morning. You used to drink green tea. Remember? I told you to, and it kept making you have to go to the bathroom.

Yeah, but that was cold. It was never warm. I could never drink warm tea. Oh, I didn't know you was drinking that green tea cold. I can't even drink hot pizza. I mean, eat hot pizza. No one can drink hot pizza. I mean, you know what I mean.

I can't even eat hot pizza. When I buy a pizza, I have to... You know what? Let's just moonwalk out of this one, because Envy's drinking hot pizza. All right. You hot pizza. I mean, you know what I mean. I can't even eat hot pizza. When I buy a pizza, I have to... You know what? Let's just moonwalk out of this one because Envy's drinking hot pizza. All right. You're right. Well, that is your Rumor Report. I'm Angela Ying.

All right, Miss Ying. All right. Up next is the People's Choice Mix. And happy birthday to the game. Today is the game's birthday. So let's start the mix off with some game and get your request in. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning.

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. What is that? Bullets. Listen to Escape from Zakistan. That's Escape from Z-A-Q is Stan. On the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.

Mike Tyson's journey to recovery reminds us that no fight is easy. With every bump he started, each step back and moments that could have broken him, he kept pushing forward.
