We'll talk about that a little more. And I just want to say, Nicki Minaj is not banned from up here at all, right? Unless it's something I'm not aware of. No, she's not banned. I didn't ban her.

I don't know what you and Charlamagne be doing, man, but I had to see this. I mean, no. I mean, I said I wasn't going to play her music at one time, but they squashed that out,

so I'm good with it. We've been playing her music ever since when they squ to play her music at one time, but they squashed that out, so I'm good with it.

Nobody ever says she can't come up here. Do we play Hot Girl Summer in the morning? I play it in the mix every morning.

when people do car shows, when people do events sometimes, sometimes other people take care of it and they just put their name on it. But I totally have been doing it by myself with the help of Shout to Lincoln Tech, who's a huge sponsor and partner. But I've been doing a lot of it myself. I've been getting the cars. I've been getting the transportation, setting up the stage, setting up where the cars go.

It's a lot of work. Approving the cars. Dan, do people not get approved? Yeah, some people don't get approved. I mean, if your car is not, I mean, because anybody wants to put their car in. Sometimes cars are not good enough to be in the show, in my opinion. Damn, ouch. Yeah, I mean, and then we have limited space.

That's why my car didn't make it in. Well, that's why your car didn't make it. But we have limited space, so we have to, you know, get the cars that look the best because we really want to provide something for the people. And it's not just a car show. It's also a family day where we have bouncies and jumpies. We have face painting. We have still walkers.

We have a shout to Sephora. Sephora's actually going to come in and do facials for women for free. So we got that coming in. Okay, face painting and facials. That's right. We got hair braiding where women can get their hair braided. So there's something for everybody at the show. You're stupid.

He keeps on being like, hey, I got 500 backpacks to give away. No, we're going to give away 500 backpacks for the kids. We do that every year, so we're going to do it at Angela Yee Day. We're going to do one in Jersey. Of course, Top Pop is going to be bringing sparkling water and soda to the event to give to the kids and everybody. So I'm excited about Yee Day. I don't have my own day, so my day is going to be Yee's Day. No, I'm just going to use your day.

You're not there. All right, well, anyway, let's get the show started. Marlon Wayans will be joining us this morning. Yes, he will. Comedian. He has a new flick that's on Netflix today. It's called Sex Tuplets. Sex Tuplets is six kids, right?

Mm-hmm. And he plays all six kids. Yeah, I seen a trail. I wanted to watch it last night, but my wife wasn't home and I know if I watched it without her, I'd get in trouble. Yes, I didn't watch it, but I'm going to watch it today. And also Coach K and P from Quality Control Music. The owners and creators and founders of Quality Control.

That's right. They have a compilation that comes out today. We'll kick it with them. And let's get the show cracking. Front page news, what are we talking about? Well, let's talk about some more of this Jay-Z NFL deal and hear what other people have to say about Jay-Z teaming up with the NFL. All right, we'll get into all that when we come back.

Keep it locked. This is The Breakfast Club. Good morning. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God. We are the Breakfast Club. Let's get in some front page news. Pray for DeMarcus Cousins. Now, Los Angeles

Lakers, DeMarcus Cousins has suffered a torn ACL in his knee. So it looks like he'll be out maybe the whole next season. So that sucks. And let's talk about our Brooklyn Nets also because the CEO, Brett Yermack, is leaving after 14 years as CEO of the Brooklyn that sucks. And let's talk about our Brooklyn Nets also because the CEO, Brett Yarmack, is leaving after 14 years as CEO

of the Brooklyn Nets. And he's the one that created BSC Global. He's the one that bought the Nets from Jersey to Brooklyn. So he's leaving. We don't know where he's going to, what other job immediately, but he believes he has one more chapter left in his career. So he's going to get a substantial exit package

according to the league sources. And, yeah, a lot going on with the Brooklyn Nets right now. Also, Brett Yormax, number two, our guy Mike Z, is leaving the Nets and Brooklyn Sports and Entertainment. He's going to Roc Nation Sports, where he'll be the president of sales. They also said that the owner of the Nets that own 49% is going to— He's buying, yes, a majority. He's buying a majority of it, so shout out to the Nets.

The Nets is doing a lot of big things, man. I'm not mad at them. There's a lot going on right now, so. Our Brooklyn Nets, as we like to call it. Now, let's talk more sports. Let's talk about Jay-Z and the NFL and their partnership. Some people are having issues, and I guess the announcement wasn't as well received as they

hoped it would be. And apparently Jameel Hill wrote an article for The Atlantic, where she talks about the joint media session between the NFL League Commissioner Roger Goodell and Jay-Z at the Roc Nation offices. She said,

I assume neither Goodell nor Jay-Z expected to be on the defensive once the NFL announced it would give Roc Nation, the music mogul's entertainment company, significant power in choosing the performance for the league's signature events,

including the Super Bowl halftime show. Then she goes on to talk about what the issues are and why people were questioning him, questioning Jay-Z, why he chose to collaborate with the same league that he'd publicly criticized for its treatment of Colin Kaepernick. This is the same Jay-Z who showed support for Kaepernick by wearing his jersey on SNL. On his mega hit song, Ape-ish, Jay-Z rapped this lyric, Once I said no to the Super Bowl, you need me, I don't need you. Every night we in the end zone tell

the NFL we in stadiums too. She goes on to say, now that the NFL has Jay-Z's blessing, it's conceivable that some of those entertainers who distance themselves from the NFL might change their mind. Jay-Z has given the NFL exactly what it wanted, guilt-free access to black audiences, culture, entertainers,

and influencers. There's a lot of people that have been saying that they didn't think it was a move that was in line with what's been going on in the NFL, and it's kind of how the NFL is trying to appease black people. Like I said before, I mean, Jay-Z's been one of those people that have done so much for the culture, so much for the community. So I would have to think that Hov has a bigger idea, a bigger plan.

He's never done anything against us. He's always been supporting anything, supporting the movement. He's been bailing people out. He's been doing so much on the private way. He's never even said anything. So I can't go against that man. That's me personally. Let's talk about another issue, investor Stephen Ross.

We've all heard about how everybody was upset that he was hosting a political fundraiser for Donald Trump. And he owns Equinox and SoulCycle. Well, apparently now Equinox is donating $5 million to charity. After that whole scandal, the gym will donate $1 million to five different charities. So I guess that's the answer to people now canceling memberships and not going to those SoulCycle classes anymore. And speaking of Donald Trump, he was in Manchester, New Hampshire, and he actually was fat shaming somebody in his audience. He's crazy. That guy's got a serious weight problem.

Go home, start exercising. Get him out of here, please. He's crazy, man. He's got a bigger problem than I do. Got a bigger problem than all of us. Yo, he's great. He don't care. It was self-deprecating, too. I mean, he was like, yo, you got a bigger problem than me because us. Yo, he's great. He don't care. It was self-deprecating, too.

I mean, he was like, yo, you got a bigger problem than me because I'm fat. See my ass? Donald Trump can't talk about anybody's weight. But the president shouldn't be doing that, I would assume. No one should be doing that. Michelle Obama did it in a nice way. She just had to do it to get fit program or whatever. Yeah, but she didn't call somebody fat.

Michelle Obama was like, just eat vegetables, go play outside. She was fighting childhood obesity and kids not playing outside. Yeah, so yo, fatty, get the F out of here, fatty. Get the fat man out of here. I see that. I get it, but hey, whatever works. I don't know if that works. People have different ways of motivating.

He's worse than me. He's a fat ass. I'm just a little. By the way, that wouldn't make your ass go to the gym? You look at that guy and you're like, man. That would make me want to be fatter. Not me. If Donald Trump disapproves of me, you're doing something right.

No. If Donald Trump says you look worse me, you're doing something right. No. If Donald Trump says you look worse than me, I'm taking him out to get surgery. I think Donald Trump thinks he's attractive, though. We have eyes. See, that's when I just have to go with the whole. All right. Well, that is your mother. Your mother.

All right. Anyway, now 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, bad morning, or maybe you feel blessed and you want to spread some positivity. Call us up right now. 800-585-1051. It's The Breakfast Club.

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

by leading black people a little bit out of the way even with Hillary Clinton? With Hillary Clinton? I mean, if that's the case, it was a lot of black people that led people out of the way by even with Hillary Clinton. With Hillary Clinton? I mean, if that's the case, it was a lot of black people that led people out of the way, including us. What was the alternative in that election? You see what the alternative was?

We got the alternative. The alternative was that they had us believing she was going to win on every station they shot her. She was going to win by a landslide. Well, my brother, that's why people got to go out there and vote, but we cannot stop, we cannot absolve the fact that there

was Russian interference and that is a fact, right? So, we don't know. Yeah, exactly. Yeah, like we don't know what happened. She did get four million

more in the popular vote, you know, so I mean, we don't know. Something wasn't right in the water, but I know in 20... She couldn't win

with Hov though on the side. My God, why do y'all... Listen, Hov is just a man. Yeah, Hov is not God, bro. Like, why do y couldn't win with Hov, though, on the side. My God. Why do y'all... Listen, Hov is just a man. Yeah, Hov is not God, bro. Why do y'all think that Hov is the leader of all black people? No, he's just a man, but he's a very influential man.

He is. He is. And he uses influence for good. He put out to use that power. He did slightly try to get the black people to vote with her. That's all I'm saying. We all did. What was the alternative? What get the black people to vote with her. That's all I'm saying. We all did. What was the alternative? Donald Trump.

Yeah, but they wasn't saying that. They said she was going to win. Oh my God. We had to believe it. Well, she didn't for whatever reason. Who are you voting for next year? I'm just curious. You going to vote for Donald Trump? I'm voting for Charlemagne. I might run. I'm thinking about running for mayor. Alright, well thank you, man. I don't know

He don't care what come out of his mouth, bro. When it comes to communication, we are just alike, and that's the problem with the Democrats now. They don't understand

that the language of politics is dead. You got to talk straight to the American people. And that's what Donald Trump is doing. No, I'm not a Republican. I'm just a... I'm an effective communicator, and Donald Trump is an effective communicator. Say what you want about him. He lies all the time. He says things that aren't true.

That's not effective. But those lies are clear and concise. You know what I'm saying? If I say, if I point at Angelina and say, her hair is red and it's clearly black, I said it in a confident, concise way. Right. You know what I'm saying? I don't know.

The language of politics is dead. Get on the show, Yee. On what show? On the podcast, the language of politics is dead. Get on the show, Yeet. On what show? On the podcast, on lip service. What do you do? He's getting... What do you mean? I have a podcast.

We'll talk about it when we come back. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Really easy start. I got in the dog. What? I don't know. I like that Drake song. Who's that? Drake and Ross, right? Money in the Grave? Yep, yep, yep. It's a tough tune.

Morning, everybody. We are the Breakfast Club. Let's get to the rumors. Let's talk Nicki Minaj. Listen up. It's just in. The rumor report. It's just in. All the gossip. Gossip. The rumor report. Gossip.

Gossip. With Angela Yee. It's the rumor report. The Breakfast Club. Well, Nicki Minaj was not too excited about our interview with Rick Ross, and that's because of some questions that were asked. Now, Nicki Minaj was on Joe Button's podcast, and she had this to say about Rick Ross name dropping her.

I went and sat down in a meeting with Obama and Ross was there and texted dude after the meeting and said, yo, this chick is a keeper. She went in a whole in a room full of rappers and spoke to Obama. And the first thing out of her mouth was about you and figuring out your probation situation and why you're still on probation after all these years. And then you come out on our album when it's time to sell some weak-ass f***ing album and try to disrespect Nicki Minaj? Boy, sit your fat ass down. Damn, she Donald Trumped him. Now, what if Trump would have said that to the guy in the crowd yesterday?

That would have been foul. Sit your fat ass down. That would have been foul. So keep going, Yee. I'm going to keep going right now. Now, Rick Ross was on The Breakfast Club, and here's what he had to say about Nicki Minaj's comments about him. I mean, if somebody went in to meet Obama with you,

she is a keeper until you find out otherwise. She was playing a very important position at the time. She was in between Meek and Drake at the time. And what she don't know and she may not understand, playing that position, that was a very fragile role. It would be very easy to put that responsibility on her. But that ain't what I tried to make it to. But most definitely when I seen it go to sour,

it would be easy to assume she may have had something to do with that. And if somebody tell you they didn't, they lying. Okay, so he was making assumptions about her role and that beef with Meek and Drake. Now, this is all over a line that he had in his song, Apple of My Eye. He said, I told Meek I wouldn't trust Nikki. Instead of beefing with your dog, you just give him

some distance. So, that's the line that she was referring to when she was on Joe Button's podcast. Now, after that, she took to Twitter and said, Charlamagne gets so excited when he thinks someone about to say something negative about me. That tail gets a wagging. That little

pee, as in vagina, gets a popping. The tail wagging. He gets a giggling. He's popping. There the giggle go. They banned me from the show, but always talking about me. I'm pulling up because we in New York soon. I'd rather be invited, though, just saying.

What part of I love you, Nicki Minaj, don't you understand? The whole part. Nicki has never, first of all, Nicki has never been banned. Nope. That is a bold-faced lie. Yeah, we saw you said that to Page Six. There was never a problem with her. We never banned her from the radio station.

There's not a consequence to what she has said now or in the past. I don't know why she's saying that. And you also said that you guys talk on the phone, text each other, and said rappers are going to be rappers and said it's wrestling. I'm not saying we text and we talk on the phone all the time on the regular, but if Nikki has an issue, she'll call me.

If Nikki has an issue, she'll text me. When's the last time you spoke to her? On text, I think it was October. It might have been October of last year. That's a while ago. That's a long time ago. That's damn near a year ago. The last phone call I remember,

but the text was like October of last year. I texted and I said, yo, sending you positive energy and blessings. Wish you the best. And she hit me back and said, thank you, my brother. It's all good.

But hey, I don't know, man. Your tail be wagging. Tail be wagging. Your vagina be popping. I do like that description. You get the little giggling on you. That's a good Friday night. Your tail be wagging. Tail be wagging. Your vagina be popping. I do like that description. You get the little giggling on you. That's a good Friday night.

Your tail start wagging. Your pee start popping. You do a little giggle. She ain't never lie. That's what I'm with you, man. Also, it's not like we just brought Nikki up for no reason. She said that on Joe Budden's podcast. Ross was here.

So, of course, we asked him about it. But Rick Ross did say she's doing her thing. Yeah, and we didn't even put the extra sauce on it. We didn't even play to sit your fat ass down for Ross. You know what I'm and we didn't even put the extra sauce on it. We didn't even play to sit your fat ass down for Ross. You know what I'm saying? We could have put the extra sauce on it. Well, Ross has always been called Fat Boy, so he probably don't really care about that.

But she is not bad for the Breakfast Club. So she's welcome to come up here next week. Now, Safaree has been. Correct. It'll be definitely been Safaree. What does that have to do with this? I don't know. Yeah, what does one have to do with the other?

I mean. All right, now let's get ready for something else. I could be petty right now and say something. Say it. No, because it's not true, so why say it? It would just be a joke, but people would take it out of context. I want to hear the joke. Go ahead, say what are you about to say.

Let me hear the joke. Stop the music. Let me hear it. Go ahead. Go ahead. No, go ahead. Say it. Nope.

Nope. I won't. Nope. I love you, Nicki Minaj. I see your tail wagging. I see your tail wagging. I see your pee popping. Your pee popping.

And you're about to start giggling. Got a few more hours, though. I don't know how long I can keep this one in. I got a good one in the clip. Envy's heard it. Envy's heard it. He liked it. That's why he wanted me to repeat it.

I got a good one in the clip. I'm Angela Yee, and that's your rumor report. You got to go in. Chill out. I ain't going to front. You got to go in. It made me chuckle. I chuckled.

I need to stop with this giggling, man. It'll make you giggle, too. And the tail wag go. It made me chuckle. I chuckled. I need to stop with this giggling, man. It'll make you giggle too. In the tail wagging. In the pee popping. Front page news next, man. I hate y'all. What we talk about next? We are going to be talking about our Brooklyn Nets.

You know, they have a brand new owner. Somebody is going to buy the entire Brooklyn Nets. And you know how much that costs? How much? We'll talk about it. All right, we'll get into that next. Keep it locked. It's the Breakfast Log.

Good morning. Playing all games. Keep it locked. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. Hey, morning, everybody. It's DJ, MV, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God. We are the Breakfast Club. What's happening? Let's get in some front page news. Prayers up to DeMarcus Cousins. Of course, he just went to the Lakers, but it looks like

he's going to be out the season. He suffered a torn ACL. That sucks, man. So he had a Vegas workout, and it looks like he's going to be out the season next year. Yeah, that sucks, man. And that sucks because, you know, DeMarcus Cousins was due to get one of those big, big, big, big paydays at some point, but then he had the first injury. Now he got this injury.

He's going to be out next season. That, I don't know, that has to hurt. Yeah, he went to Golden State last year. I'm sure he was chasing a ring. That didn't happen. Went to the Lakers, was teaming up with Anthony and LeBron James. And then this happened. So we'll see what happens, man.

Definitely prayers up to him. What else we talking about, Yee? Well, let's talk about our Brooklyn Nets. Looks like Alibaba co-founder Joe Sy is signing that deal for the Brooklyn Nets. So, you know, he paid $1 billion last year for 49% of the team. The owner of Alibaba owns the Nets? I didn't know that. Yes. Wow.

And now... He got money, money. He's paying $1.35 billion for the balance of the team. So altogether, that is $2.35 billion for the Nets. In addition to that, he's supposed to be buying the Barclays, and that's a $700 million deal. So altogether, he'll be paying $3 billion for the team and the arena.

Sheesh. Now that's money. In the meantime, the CEO of the Nets, after 14 years, Brett Yarmark, is leaving. So they just made that announcement yesterday. He's ending his 14 years with the franchise. He bought the Nets from New Jersey to Brooklyn. So best of luck to Brett Yarmark. All right.

Now let's discuss your president, Donald Trump. Now, Donald Trump was talking and he doesn't like when people go against him or protest him. So one of the protesters stood up, had something to say. And here is how Donald Trump responded. That guy's got a serious weight problem. Go home, start exercising. Get him out of here, please. Got a bigger problem than I do.

Got a bigger problem than all of us. Sheesh, Donald Trump. This guy is disgusting. All right. And this is a really sad story. What guy is disgusting? The guy he was talking about? Donald Trump. Donald Trump. This guy is disgusting. Alright, and this is a really sad story. What guy is disgusting? The guy he was talking about? Donald Trump. Oh, Donald Trump. Oh, you gotta be clear. To talk about people like that, I don't even know what the guy looked like.

I just know what he said. He must look pretty bad if Trump says he looks worse than him. Okay? I don't know about Trump's vision on things. Trump is crazy. He says whatever. He cares about nobody. But he says it in a very direct, concise way. That's why he registers with people. His messaging is very, very clear because we didn't even see that man.

We know that man was fat. Fat ass! All right, now a captain at a Rhode Island detention facility. He has now been placed on administrative leave. And that is because he decided to drive a truck toward a line of protesters who are demanding that the center cease its cooperation with U.S. ICE. And witnesses said that there were five people who were hospitalized, according to the group that organized the process. So you can't even peacefully demonstrate out of one of these facilities.

And then the captain went and drove into the people that were actually protesting peacefully. So that detention facility said that Captain Thomas Woodworth has been placed on administrative leave pending the results of two investigations. That's an independent investigation and also an investigation being conducted by the facility and the Rhode Island State Police. All right, well, that is your front page news. All right, thank you, Ms. Yee. Now, let's talk about Jay-Z yesterday. Jay-Z announced that he's partnering up with the NFL.

You want to talk about that a little bit, Yee? Yeah, we talked about Jay-Z, and he was with the NFL commissioner, Roger Goodell. They did a joint media session at the Roc Nation offices, and they were talking about their partnership. So Jay-Z is going to be helping deal with all their entertainment that they do for the NFL, for their signature events like the Super Bowl halftime show, Jay-Z and Roc Nation. And they'll also help out with the NFL's social justice initiatives. They're going to help develop content and spaces so that players can speak about the issues that concern them. So does that mean they're still not supposed to be doing things on the field or during the game?

Nah. I mean, they're partnered with Impact Change. Impact Change already exists in the NFL and they're focusing on education and economic advancement, policing community relations and criminal justice reform. And they're just making sure organizations that support those causes get that money. Jay said in the press conference, he

wants people to still kneel. He doesn't care if people still kneel. So what's the NFL's take on that now? And what did Roger Goodell say about kneeling? Can you still kneel? What did Roger Goodell say about kneeling? Roger Goodell said he wanted people to protest however they wanted to protest or something like that. But I will say this about the NFL. So yes, they can kneel.

Yeah, they can still kneel. Okay. They still kneeling now. Salute to Kenny Stills. Salute to Eric Reid. All of those guys still kneel. Absolutely. But, you know, a lot of people were kind of mad that Jay-Z partnered up with the NFL

and you have Jamil Hill, what she had to say about it. She wrote a whole article for The Atlantic. What did they say? She said this is the same Jay-Z who showed support for Kaepernick by wearing his jersey on Saturday Night Live on his mega song Ape-ish. Jay-Z rapped his lyric, once I said no to the Super Bowl, you need me, I don't need you.

Every night we in the end zone. Tell the NFL we in stadiums too. She said now that the NFL has Jay-Z's blessing, it's conceivable that some of those entertainers who distance themselves from the NFL might change their mind. Jay-Z has given the NFL exactly what it wanted, guilt-free access to black audiences, culture, entertainers, and influencers. I don't understand why you can't support Colin

and want him to be in the league and acknowledge that he is being blackballed, but still want what Jay-Z is doing with the NFL to work. Now, do we have I think Nessa said some stuff to the NFL comments? Yes, Nessa actually took to social media. You have to bleep all Nessa comments. All them curse words.

Nessa sound like Nas in 2002. Geesh. All that ether she delivering. No, yeah, she definitely wasn't happy about it. We'll get more into that though. We'll tell you what everybody has to say and we'll have Jay-Z's audio for you as well. More importantly, I want to hear from the people. 1-800-585-1051. This is a people

show. I want to have this conversation with the people. And Jemele Hill's main thing was she doesn't think that Jay-Z was getting enough out of this partnership. She said it's part of their strategy to absolve itself of what happened to the quarterback and throw enough money at social justice causes so that the players will no longer feel the need to protest

or keep their opinions about racial injustice far away from the football field. It just seems weird that we would think Jay-Z would allow himself to be used. Like, if you think Hov is a token, then you simply think White Ice is colder because I don't understand this. 800-585-1051.

Phone lines are wide open. Let's have this discussion this morning. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. Pull out your phone. Call in right now. Call me. Add your opinion to The Breakfast Club topic.

Break it down. 800-585-1051. The Breakfast Club. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. Good morning. Now, if you just joined us, we're talking about Jay-Z.

He partnered up with the NFL, and some people are upset about that. Now, let's talk about it. Now, we have some audio, Yee. Yes, here is Jay-Z speaking at the press conference about why he did the deal and how it's not enough just to kneel. Let's move past that. I think we've passed kneeling. I think it's time to go into actionable items.

I think everyone knows what the issue is. And I'm not, again, so to be clear, I'm not minimizing that part of it because that has to happen. That's a necessary part of the process. But now we all know what's going on. What are we going to do? How are we going to stop? Because the kneeling was not about a job. It was about injustice. Let me bring attention to injustice. Everyone's saying, how are you going forward? And Cap doesn't have a job. This wasn't about him having a job. You know, I just want to say, let's be clear. You know, as Jay-Z said, Colin Kaepernick's

protests absolutely worked. They raised awareness to an issue. And because of that awareness, millions of private citizens across America, as well as corporations, they've taken action. And in order to be successful and sustain any process of meaningful change, both awareness and action are necessary. So with that said, I don't understand why anyone is upset with the action Jay-Z is taking. If you're a black man that plays in the NFL, wants to play in the NFL, you make a living off the NFL, you should be happy you have someone in the NFL that is from your culture and understands your interest in that league,

making sure that NFL teams in the league continue to support the programs that are helping our community, period. And that's the sentiment I got from so many people that are actually playing in the league now. I can't judge anybody, nor can I say what they're doing, but if people hate the league so much, why play for that league? If I didn't like this job, I just

wouldn't work for this job. That's how I feel. People say, well, look at Kaepernick. Kaepernick still hasn't said anything that I'm knowledgeable of. Kaepernick did a deal with Nike, and I'm happy for his deal with Nike, but Nike still has relationships with the league. Nike still sponsors the NFL. So what's the difference?

Like, you know, what's the difference? I just know what Jay-Z has done for our community, whether it's been giving back, it's been bailing people out, it's been really pushing the culture forward. So for him to do a partnership, I can't say, you know what, he's doing it for the wrong reasons.

The man is filthy rich, so he's not doing it for the money. He's not doing it because he wants to perform at the Super Bowl. He's not doing it for those things. So what is he doing it? For my opinion, it's because he wants to be in those meetings. He wants to be at the table. He has a seat at the money. He's not doing it because he wants to perform at the Super Bowl. He's not doing it for those things. So what is he doing it for? My opinion is because he wants to be in those meetings. He wants to be at the table. He has a seat at the table. That's

what I think. Well, Jamel Hill wrote this article, Jay-Z helped the NFL banish Colin Kaepernick for the Atlantic. And she also says in this article, I don't question Jay-Z's commitment to social justice or his desire to empower African Americans. She talks about him using his platform to have those conversations

and producing that Trayvon Martin series and also the miniseries on Kalief Browder and all of that. She said, I don't believe Jay-Z is a sellout because his track record proves otherwise, but it does seem like he's being used as a cover or, at best, a buffer. I don't understand how we can run down Hov's resume of his activism and him helping people. How could we do all that but then think he would allow himself to be

used? Like, if you think Hov is a token, then you simply think White Ice is cold, though, because I was at that press conference. What I saw was the NFL partnering with a powerful black man. Like, we talk about a seat at the table. They had that meeting in Roc Nation. Hov's house. You know what I'm saying? Sitting at one of his tables in his boardroom.

That's where that white man Roger Goodell was at. So we got to start recognizing our own power to create change, man. All those hashtags and stuff is great. It raises awareness, but you got to be about that action. And I want to say I love Colin Kaepernick, all right, and I would love to see Colin back in the league, but I also like real change and not just symbols of change, and I don't understand why anyone would think Jay is doing this for any other reason

other than he thinks he can make a real change. Well, Colin Kaepernick's longtime girlfriend, Nessa, said, I don't mind you doing a business deal, but I do mind you wrapping it in social justice when you're working with an organization that denies someone an opportunity. I'm going to start calling Ness a Nas nitty because Ness is coming like Nas in 2002 with the eat the sheep putting on ho. But listen, the deal may work. It may not work. But either way, he tried. And I don't understand

why black people would root against that because if it's not this, what's the plan? Like, we all don't have to have the same course of action. We just need to have

the same goal. So once again, if not this, what's the plan? The only question I had was, I'm not even sure because I wasn't at the press conference.

Jay said he spoke to Colin Kaepernick and then Nessa said that wasn't true, that he did not speak? He spoke to Colin earlier this week before the press release came out. Okay. So they had a conversation about what he was about to do. Did he tell him? No, he didn't have conversations with him about the deal that he structured prior.

But he called him this week to let him know, like, hey, this is the announcement that's about to be made. This is what I'm doing. Okay. And I don't see the problem. Like, Roc Nation and Impact Change are focusing on education and economic advancement, police and community relations, criminal justice reform.

They make a show of organizations that support those causes. Get that money. What is the problem, people? All right. I don't understand. Let's go to the phone lines. Hello, who's this? Hi. Sorry I had to take y'all off mute. My name's Jessie. problem, people. All right. I don't understand. Let's go to the phone lines. Hello, who's this? Hi.

Sorry I had to take y'all off mute. My name's Jessie. Hey, Jessie. What did you think about Jay-Z partnering up with the NFL? I think that it's a positive change. The only negative feedback I've seen from white people was from Tommy Loren. And I feel like for all the black people who feel like this is a negative thing, it really

doesn't take much to divide us and real change comes from within and if you want to see more diverse spaces and more black people in these positions of power, then you have to allow them to do it the way that they can do it

so they can make real change. You're absolutely right. She just brought up a good point. We're not looking at the other side. All those conservatives that watch the NFL, they so mad about this deal. Tommy Lauren was like, oh, NFL doing a deal with a drug dealer. Right. Like, you ain't looking at the other side of the game.

The other side of the game isn't happy about this. Well, 805-85-1051, we're asking, what are your thoughts with Jay-Z partnering up with the NFL? And it's just funny to me. People are so upset. But you watch NFL every weekend. I don't think that people

are questioning Jay-Z's commitment to the community. What people are questioning is what the motives of the NFL were in doing this partnership. And that's why we all have to collectively, if we want to have a real protest,

the protest should be, hey, let's not watch the NFL until they give Colin Kaepernick a job. Like, let's have the protest specifically about that. They blackballed Colin Kaepernick. So if you want to do something, how about boycott the NFL, protest the NFL because they didn't give that man a job. But then let me ask you a question. What part of it do you boycott? Because it's not the NFL that's saying that's not giving him a job. It's each particular team. It's the owners. The owners of each particular team that are not

hiring him. So who do you boycott against? Because, you know, Roger Goodell said he could sign whoever team he wants to. Roger Goodell did say that in the press conference, but the NFL, y'all not slick. Y'all put out that video at a press conference and cut out all my questions to Roger Goodell and his answers, okay? But we got the audio. That's because your tail be wagging,

your p***y be popping, and I be giggling. That's why. 800-585-1051 is the Breakfast Club. Good morning. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are the Breakfast Club. Now, if you just joined us, we're talking about Jay-Z's partnership

with the NFL. People are upset about this. People are mad. They don't understand what's going on, so we're just taking your phoneZ's partnership with the NFL. People are upset about this. People are mad. They don't understand what's going on. So we're just taking your phone calls and just asking your thoughts. We have Marcus on line three. Marcus, good morning. Yo, what's up, man? Peace, King.

What's up, bro? I don't like the Jay-Z move just because the picture that was painted. I don't want to see him sitting there with Roger Goodell. Roger Goodell is his higher health. I want to see him sitting with the picture that was painted. I don't want to see him sitting there with Roger Goodell. Roger Goodell is his higher health. I want to see him sitting with the owners that said, if you kneel, you won't play for my team ever again. The owners that said, we can't have the inmates running the asylum. Well, he died.

The owner that said that died. That was the owner of the Houston Texans. He's dead. Yeah, he died. But you know that thought, most of those owners have that same thought. Well, Hovstead's with Robert Kraft all the time. You know, Robert Kraft was on Hov's board for the reform initiative. Robert Kraft is the cloud chaser.

You know that. You see that. You saw him dance to McCarty on stage. I was there, actually. If the real issue was the owners could sit there and say, you know what, now we'll listen, we'll do something great. But him sitting with Roger Goodell, Roger Goodell is just high as hell. All right. Thank you, brother.

Olivia, good morning, Olivia. Good morning. How you doing this morning? I'm good. How are y'all? I'm good, Olivia. Hey. Hey. Now we're talking about Jay-Z partnering up with the NFL. What do you think?

Okay. I think that regardless if he's right or wrong, which in my first gut first gut reaction i thought he was wrong but the optics are just bad like you can't go sit up in a room full of white people and be like we're past kneeling because there's nothing that the nfl can do besides spread awareness as well oh like hold on we got to talk optics for a second uh that room was at rock nation it wasn't a bunch of white people. It was in Rock Nation's boardroom, and really the only white person in there was like Roger Goodell, and like three or four of the reporters was white.

So what are we talking about? It looked like it was a bunch of white people. Perception is reality. And he's laughing with them, and he's laughing with them talking about, do you know why we kneel? Do you know why we kneel? Do you know why we kneel? The problem wasn why we kneeled? Do you know why we kneeled?

The problem wasn't knowing. The problem was doing something about it. That's what the whole time I got. I'm just saying. I don't feel like the NFL can do anything about it either. I will say this. Besides spread awareness. But that's the point.

Colin Kaepernick raised awareness. And what Jay-Z said was the kneeling worked. The protest worked. He raised awareness. Now what Jay-Z said was the kneeling worked. The protest worked. He raised awareness. Now it's time for action. And you have to have action. You have to have awareness and action in order to sustain any meaningful change. Did he talk about any specific actions that they're going to do?

Like, this is what we're doing now. We're implementing this. Yes. We have this happening. Yes. They're focusing on education and economic advancement, police and community relations, criminal justice reform, and they're focusing on education and economic advancement, police and community relations, criminal justice reform, and they're making sure those organizations that

support those type of causes get that money. So they said we're organizations and everything, and they talked specifically, or just this is in general what we're doing? It could be any organization. The players get to pick what organizations the money goes to. Somebody in the room asked him, would Colin Kaepernick's Know Your Rights camp get some of this money? And he was like, of course. Tyler?

Hey, good morning, Breakfast Club. Good morning. What are your thoughts, bro? Long time listener. First time caller. Thank you. My thought, no problem. My thought is basically everything Jay-Z does is a chess move.

So I don't understand why people feel like he would go against the culture. I don't understand that either. That's mind boggling to me. Like, I want to know who has cachet in the culture. Like, who? Because it seems like nobody has any type of cachet. But, you know, it's a bold move, and I think you had to anticipate that some people were going to have an issue with it,

as I'm sure he anticipated. So now it's time to show and prove. So I'm sure you make an announcement like that. No one sees any actions yet, and I don't think people question the fact that Jay-Z's done great things, but now everybody's watching to see what's going to happen next. No one sees any actions yet. And I don't think people question the fact that Jay-Z's done great things. But now everybody's watching to see what's going to happen next. And I think making this press conference and making this announcement was definitely going to get you some backlash. And I feel like I'm sure he anticipated that.

Yeah. But listen, I have no problem with people trying to change things from within. I have no problems with engages or resistors. I just think everybody needs to breathe and give things a second and let's see what happens. And once again, I love Colin Kaepernick and I would love to see Colin back in the league, but I also like real change and not just symbols of

change. And I don't understand why anyone would think Jay is doing this for any reason other than he thinks he can make a real change. It may work, it may not work, but either way he tried and I don't understand why black people would root against this because if it's not this, what's the plan? Well's let's take some more phone calls phone lines are lit up 800-585-1051 we'll take some more calls when we come back we're talking about Jay-Z his partnership with the NFL

We are The Breakfast Club. Now, if you just joined us, we're talking about Jay-Z, his partnership with the NFL. What are your thoughts? All right, that's what we're asking. We just opened up the phone lines. Now, if you missed it, we have some audio of Jay-Z talking about his partnership.

Let's hear it. I think we've passed kneeling. I think it's time to go into our actionable items. I think everyone knows what the issue is. And I'm not, again, so to be clear, I'm not minimizing that part of it because that has to happen. That's a necessary part of the process.

But now we all know what's going on. What are we going to do? How are we going to stop? Because the kneeling was not about a job. It was about injustice. Let me bring attention to injustice. Everyone's saying, how are you going forward? Andep doesn't have a job?

This wasn't about him having a job. Now, everybody wasn't too pleased with this partnership. Jemele Hill actually did a write-up on it. What did she say, Yee? Jemele Hill did a whole article for The Atlantic, and she talks about, it's called Jay-Z helped the NFL banish Colin Kaepernick. I don't agree with that either. And she said, I assume neither Goodell nor Jay-Z

expected to be on the defensive once the NFL announced it would give Roc Nation significant power in choosing the performers for the league's signature events. But she goes on to talk about how he was one of the people that advised Travis Scott not to perform at the Super Bowl. And she talks about why

he said he did that, because he would be playing second fiddle to Maroon 5. It had nothing to do with Colin Kaepernick, he said. Also, she said, she talks about why he said he did that, because he would be playing second fiddle to Maroon 5. It had nothing to do with Colin Kaepernick, he said. Also, she said, she feels like this is the NFL strategy to absolve itself of what happened to Colin Kaepernick and throw enough money at social justice causes so players will no longer feel the need to protest. All right, so we're just asking, taking their calls.

Let's go to the phone lines. Hello, who's this? Hey, this is Professor Kenny. How y'all doing this morning? What's up, Professor Kenny? How's it going this morning, brother? Talk to me, Kenny their calls. Let's go to the phone lines. Hello, who's this? Hey, this is Professor Kenny. How y'all doing this morning? What's up, Professor Kenny? How's it going this morning, brother? Talk to me, Kenny. You a real professor?

I'm doing well. Yes, sir. Yes, sir. I'm a professor at CCBC. I used to work at Boise State University, so I'm out of Maryland. Respect to you. I appreciate it. So I wanted to call because we got to realize that protest is for mobilization.

It's a vehicle, right? So we have to realize that the vehicle is to get us to the next stage. Yes. And everybody has to know their position as far as their front. So if you're a marcher, you're marching. If you're on the ground, we love you for that. We need you. But if you're in the boardroom, we need you too.

And that's what Jay's doing. He's our seat at the table. We got to take advantage of that. And it's crazy that you're a professor and they listen to you when you say that. But if I say that, then they're like, man, Charlamagne, shut your lish tongue. You know what I'm saying? Because you're absolutely right. The protest worked.

It raised awareness to an issue. And because of that awareness, millions of private citizens across America have taken action. We've mobilized. And in order to be successful and sustain any process of meaningful change, both awareness and action are necessary. Let's go to one more caller. Hello, who's this? Good morning. Hey, good morning.

What's your name? Oh, this is Marcia. Hey, Marcia. Oh, I'm so excited. But listen, Charlamagne, you know you were instrumental in saying the same thing that JC is repeating about saying that Kaepernick doesn't have a job, Charlamagne, I love you. But sometimes you must also understand what before you speak, at least let our people, because then you people, you're so instrumental and, you know, influential,

I should say, that people hang on to your every word and start repeating these things. So, yes, Charlamagne, you started that, in my opinion. I heard you say that. I started what? I don't even know. Where did I start? Oh, you had said that Kaepernick did not have a job.

You had made a statement. I think it was Monday or Tuesday. Yeah, he's blackballed from the NFL. Hold on, mama. Hold on, mama. She's a little all over the place. Yeah, he's blackballed from the NFL. Hold on, mama. Hold on, mama. She's a little all over the place. Hello, who's this? Let's talk to her.

What's your name? Oh, yeah, my name's Tariq. What's up, Tariq? We're asking you questions on Jay-Z partnering up with the NFL. I feel a hot take coming. Yeah, man, I think, honestly, man, I feel like it's a good move on Jay-Z. I agree 100%. He right.

You know, we've been doing this kneeling thing for, what,-Z. I agree 100%. He's right. We've been doing this kneeling thing for, what, two years now? It's like, all right, so now what? What's the next move? And Jay-Z put himself in a position of power. You can't have change without power. And nobody wants to acknowledge that. Look what he did with hip-hop.

So I definitely don't think Jay-Z got involved in this for the wrong reasons. I feel like he's going to bring change. And he is in the meetings now. He's at the table now. And now he can bring change. So I'm anxious to sit back and see what he's going to do. And if there's anybody that knows how to move in a room full of vultures, it's Hov. Absolutely. NFL Shady, it needs to be taken over.

All right. Well, what's the moral of the story? I mean, the moral of the story for me, man, is that, you know, I just think everybody needs to, you know, give it a beat, take a moment, breathe. And I would say also the protests were never about Cap not having a job. They were about police brutality and social justice. If we need to start a protest to get Cap back in the league, then we possibly should do that. But the original protest to raise awareness to social injustice that Cap started,

that worked. And that's an issue close to a lot of players' hearts started by Kaepernick. And now the league wants to do something about it. And Hove is assisting in that. I don't see the problem. All right. Well, we got rumors on the way, Yee. Well, since we're talking so much Jay-Z talk, let's talk about him partnering up with Will Smith.

We'll tell you what they're invested in. All right. We'll get into that next. Keep it locked. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God. We are The Breakfast Club.

Let's get to these rumors. Let's talk Dave Chappelle. This is The Rumor Report with Angela Yee. Well, Dave Chappelle and Netflix back together again for his fifth stand-up special. It's called Sticks and Stones. So in order to promote that this is coming up, Netflix did put out a one-minute teaser as Dave Chappelle is randomly walking through a desert

and you get to hear Morgan Freeman. This is Dave. He tells jokes for a living. Hopefully he makes people laugh. But these days it's a high-stakes game. He tells jokes for a living. Hopefully he makes people laugh. But these days it's a high stakes game. What the is this? God, what do I know? I'm just Morgan Freeman.

Anyway, I guess what I'm trying to say is if you say anything, you risk everything. But if that's the way it's gotta be, okay, fine. F*** it. He's back, folks. If it's the special that I saw him do on Broadway, amazing. Well, Sticks and Stones is going to premiere Monday, August 26th. And I've never been big on Dave Chappelle's stand-up like that.

You haven't? No. I mean, I like the sketch comedy. I always thought Killing Me Softly and all that stuff was cool. I love Killing Me Softly. But I never was huge on him like I am with Chris Rock. But the one he did on Broadway, amazing. All right.

Can't wait to see it. All right. Now, Jay-Z and Will Smith have invested in an Airbnb-like camping app. It's called Hip Camp. So they've gotten $25 million in their latest round of fundraising and Jay-Z's Marcy Venture Partners and Will Smith Dreamers VC Fund are part of those investments that they've

gotten. So what is this app? Well, what they're able to do is give you unique camping sites. They provide a welcome respite from you from using your technology and all of that. It's an inclusive community that values the environment, preservation, and the great outdoors. So that's why they've decided

to do that, spend more time outside and enjoying the fresh air and all of that hip camp. I disagree. I don't like any of it. Okay? What about all of the black campers that came before him? Shut up. I know. I know. I know.

All right. Now, R. Kelly. Just letting y'all know how y'all be sounding. Was a no-show in court yesterday. Why not? He refused to be transported from his federal jail cell to state court. So it was a routine pre-trial hearing that was updating the judge on evidence, bail issues. They had to do it without him, but they wanted to know why he didn't make it to court.

And they said he refused to get in the car and go. So that's why he wasn't there. I don't know what's, well, I'm sure he's going. How can R. Kelly refuse to get in the car? Ain't he in handcuffs? That's what I was saying. He's already locked up. How can he refuse to get in the car? Um, I mean, maybe it wasn't something that he had to be there for,

but they expected him to be there because they were still able to do that without him. It was a routine pretrial hearing. It's not going to end well for him. Maybe his lawyer was thererial hearing. It's not going to end well. Maybe his lawyer was there. Yeah, it's not going to end well for him, bro. Yeah, I don't know what's going on, but he refused to go.

Once you're in custody, you can't just tell people I'm not going somewhere. Apparently you can. Can they drag you? Yes. Yeah. We seen people

who've been dragged before. They could probably just be like, you're not going to go. It's not going to reflect well on you. You sure this is what you want to do? All right,

bring him back to his cell. I don't know. I'm talking about things I have no idea of. I just don't know if they can drag you. It would just seem like they could just throw you in the back of the paddy wagon. That's what I would think. And take you wherever they wanted. Where is R. Kelly now? It probably hurts you more than it hurts, I mean it probably hurts R. Kelly more that he didn't show up than

it hurts them. Oh, he in Brooklyn now, right? No, I think he's back in Chicago. He's back in Chicago? Mm-hmm. Alright, Cardi B and Bernie Sanders. You know, she's been doing these interviews and this was actually done in Detroit at the tent at the nail salon, so shout out to them. And she sat down with Bernie Sanders there.

We already played one clip for you where she was talking about minimum wage and finances. Well, next she's talking about the police brutality. Here's Cardi B talking to Bernie. It makes us feel like we're worthless. We constantly see a man getting killed every day, and it seems like nobody cares. First thing we do is we make sure that young people in this country,

black and Latino, Native American, whoever they may be, get the kind of education and job training they need so they can go out and get good jobs. We have to invest in jobs and education, not more jails and incarceration. Now, Cardi B has been a Bernie Sanders supporter. She even said back in April to Teen Vogue that she'll always go with Bernie. So I guess it only made sense for them to have this sit down together. Now here's what else you had to say with Bernie Sanders about police brutality. If a police officer kills somebody, that killing must be investigated by the United States Department of Justice.

Number three, we at the federal level make sure that police departments look like the communities that they serve, not like an oppressive army. I don't want people thinking that we're trying to attack the police. Because let me tell you something. There was this one time that I started to feel like I hate the police. But there's a lot of cops that go in their jobs and they want to protect their people. Listen, drop on the clues bombs for Bardi. Okay, say what you want about Bardi. She is yet

another effective messenger, simple and to the point. Keep telling y'all the language of politics is dead, alright? And Cardi knows how to get from A to B. And the most important thing, we have to tell people to get out there and vote. I'm not gonna tell you who to vote for, but make sure you're registered to vote. Make sure you go and vote.

A lot of times they're trying to suppress your vote and people will tell you it doesn't matter, but make sure you register and you go out there and vote. Yeah, I agree with all that, but they still got to pass some type of election security bill so we make sure that there's no type of interference from outside sources because I want to make sure my goddamn vote counts. Yes, of course we want to make sure of that,

but please do not be discouraged and decide not to vote or stay home. All right, I'm Angela Yee, and that is your rumor report. All right, thank you, Ms. Yee. Charlamagne! Yes, sir. Who are you giving that down? Continue. Well, you know, it's Friday, and we just like to keep things on a high note.

So let's discuss a little incest, why don't we? What? Huh? Before after the hour. Are we going to play Guess What Race This Is? It's so clear what race this is. As soon as you heard it, as soon as you said incest. We're talking rape.

We're talking incest. Yeah. All right, we'll get into this next. I think we know what this is soon as you said incest. Nah, we're talking rape. We're talking incest. No. All right, we'll get into this next. I think we know what this is, people. We'll get into it next. Keep it locked. This is The Breakfast Club. Good morning.

Is your country falling apart? Feeling tired? Depressed? A little bit revolutionary? Consider this. Start your own country. I planted the flag. I just kind of looked out

of like, this is mine. I own this. It's surprisingly easy. There's 55 gallons of water for 500 pounds of concrete. Everybody's doing it. I am King Ernest Emmanuel. I am the Queen of Ladonia. I'm Jackson I, King of Kaperburg.

I am the Supreme Leader of the Grand Republic of Mentonia. Be part of a great colonial tradition. Why can't I trade my own country? My forefathers did that themselves. What could go wrong? No country willingly gives up their territory. I was making a rocket with a black powder, you know, with explosive warhead. Oh my God. What is that?

Bullets. Bullet holes. We need help! We still have the off-road portion to go. Listen to Escape from Zakistan. And we're losing daylight fast.

Well, that's when the real magic happens. So if you love hearing real inspiring stories from the people, you know, follow and admire join me every week for post run high.

Listen to Post Run High on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. As a kid, I really do remember having these dreams and visions, but you just don't know what is going to come for you.

Alicia Keys opens up about conquering doubt, learning to trust herself, and leaning into her dreams. I think a lot of times we are built to doubt the possibilities for ourselves. For self-preservation and protection, it was literally that step by step. And so I discovered that that is how we get where we're going. This increment of small, determined moments. Alicia shares her wisdom on growth, gratitude, and the power of love. I forgive myself. It's okay.

Like grace. Have grace with yourself. You're trying your best. And you're going to figure out the rhythm of this thing. Alicia Keys, like you've never heard her before. Listen to On Purpose with Jay Shetty on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. That's pretty funny. Charlamagne the devil?

Possibly. The Breakfast Club. Yeah, it's dog year today. For Friday, August 16th, goes the GOP representative Steve King. Now let the record show the mayonnaise is heavy on this one, okay? Too much goddamn mayonnaise. Since the beginning of time, the greatest threat to this planet has been old white men. It is what it is, okay?

Every authority figure they have shown us since we were kids has been old white men. When we picture colonizers, it's old white men. Slave masters, old white men. During Jim Crow, who's creating all these laws to marginalize and oppress people, old white men. Who's making these abortion laws in 2019 and taking away women's rights? Old white men. Old white men are the people who want to make this country great again. AKA make this country white again.

America is the old white man's fool booth. All right? For us, by us. I'm just not an us. All right? This is their country. The laws are made for them. And to protect them, we, you know, yeah, the laws are made for them and to protect them. And, you know, we're just trying to

amend those rules so we can have a place in this society. With that said, GOP Rep. Steve King of Iowa is the latest example of the type of old white man with old, savage, white ideologies that needs to be sent back where he came from. And that is the Caucus Mountains. Alright, I'm telling you, America

will not be safe until these old white men like Representative Steve King are sent back to the caves in Europe that they came from. Oh, you mad I'm talking like this about your beloved white man? Well, let's see if you keep that same energy after you hear why he is getting donkey of the day. See, Stephen King on Wednesday

questioned whether there would be any population left on earth if not for rape or incest. Huh? Hello? Huh? McFly, anybody home?

I repeat, GOP Rep. Steve King of Iowa questioned whether there would be any population left on earth if not for rape or incest. You don't believe me, do you? You think I'm making this up. Well, roll the tape. We know the reasons why we don't accept exceptions for the most of this for rape and incest, because it's not the baby's fault. But there's another thing. I started to wonder about this. What if it was okay, and what if we went back through all the family trees

and just pulled those people out that were products of rape and incest? Would there be any population of the world left if we did that, considering all the wars and all the rape and pillage that's taken place and whatever happened in culture after society. I know I can't certify that I'm not part of a product of that. And I'd like to think every one of the lives of us are as precious as any other life.

Steve, Steve, Steve. I don't know if you know or not, but people have sex without raping and committing incest all the time. Okay, now I know your father and grandfather were probably slave owners and they told you stories of how they would just have their way with the help, and I'm sure you may have slept with a first cousin or two, maybe a sister. I'm not judging.

But none of that behavior is normal, okay? But to some people it is. You don't believe me? This was on CNN last night. They took it to the streets to talk to people in Iowa to see what they had to say and listen to what some of the folks in Iowa had to say. Obviously, there's been incest everywhere. In every family, somebody has somebody that they wish they hadn't been around.

Every family? Many families. I hope my family doesn't. What was his name, Eddie, so I can give him his credit? What was that old white man's name? I don't know what they do in their family, but that ain't happening in my family doesn't. What was his name, Eddie? So I can give him his credit. What was that old white man's name? I don't know what they do in their family, but that ain't happening

in my family. Family reunions be lit. It'd be crazy. Watch your people, boy. Who is it? What's his name, Eddie? I want to give him the credit he deserves.

I know he was a barber in Iowa. He was a barber? Yeah. He didn't sound like no barber. I'll figure out his name in a minute. Listen, here's the thing.

Do you want to make America great again? Ron Bartlett. Ron what? Bartlett. Ron Bartlett? Ron Bartlett. Okay.

Listen, Ron Bartlett, Steve King, do you want to make America great again or do you want to make America rape again? All right? As incest, we can believe in a 2020 campaign slogan. See, you really got to watch these people when they say they want to make America great again because rape and sleeping with their sisters is part of that great agenda. Ooh. All right.

Disgusting. Please let Chelsea. Come at your mouth. Please let Chelsea Handler give Steve King the biggest hee-haw. Hee-haw, hee-haw. That is way too much Dan Mayonnaise. All right. What is wrong with people?

I have no idea. To even think something like that. Well, thank you for that, Dawg, for today. Now, when we come back, Marlon Wayans will be joining us. He has a new movie that's out today. It's called Sex Tuplets? Yes, Sex Tuplets. That's six siblings. That's right. So we'll kick it with him when we come back. So don't move. Marlon Wayans.

It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. DJ MV, Angela Yee, Charlamagne the guy. We are The Breakfast Club. We got a special guest in the building. Getting a lot of movie money. That's right, Marlon Wayans.

You stop throwing my money out there in New York City. Just because it's gentrified don't mean the n***a this is. You got a suit on, you good. Do not get me jumped. He came here differently. They're not going to rob you in a suit. Because here's what happened. Don't rob me in a suit.

That's the n***a you rob. Right. N***a, that's it. You don't take his money either. You give me your f***ing credit card. You got good credit. Well, we appreciate you for always stopping by here whenever you have a project coming out because you have Sex Tuplets coming out on Netflix.

Yes. And you make sure you stop by the Breakfast Club. Cause y'all are hot. You think I'm going to come here when this s*** ain't hot? You know what I mean? Sitting next to this mean s*** when your range is not good? I actually feel fucked up right now. My voice is gone.

See, I be minding my business hard being a comedian. I mind my fucking business and they fuck with me. I'm in Cats last night. And Victor Cruz, and he has some chuckle monkey nigga with him. You know that shit that you just carry around. He has no value. You just took him out the hood, and all you do is laugh at your n***a. And it ain't f***ing funny.

So now I got to raise my voice and say, ain't Victor want to snap? And I'm like, oh, I don't trust n***as with Puerto Rican names. And so me and him going at it, and I said some things. I said evil stuff, because we went at it for like 20 minutes. Is he the Puerto Rican? Yes, he's Puerto Rican. Yeah, but he ain't the kind of Puerto Rican that Puerto Ricans embrace. Because the **** look Dominican.

Let's be real about this. Okay. So. Is that true, John? I got in trouble last time. They call him Chocolate. And they **** Susio. But here's the thing.

I was like, we kept going. It was like 30 minutes in. And Victor was like, but here's the thing, I thought, I was like, we kept going, it was like 30 minutes in, and Victor was like, you sweating, I said, yeah, I'm sweating, this shit has worked for me,

you think I'm fucking around, I'm trying to hurt your feelings, I'm trying to hurt your fucking feelings now, I'm sweating, I was like, I don't go on your fucking football field, and expect not to get hit, so another hour goes by, my voice is gone, and I'm still, his man had on some sneakers, it looked like, I don't go on your football field and expect not to get hit. So another hour goes by.

My voice is gone. I'm still his man hat on some sneakers. It looked like the Jordans that Michael Jordan actually scored 65 points in the garden win. And he threw it to him like that Coca-Cola commercial with, what's his name? Mean Joe Green. Here, kid. And this put him on. I could put a whole hand in the back of his shoe.

Ain't no grown man wear a shoe two sizes up. You ain't going to grow into them. So we kept going. And it got to a point, I said, Victor, you're going to make me say some shit. It's going to keep you up tomorrow. Oh, man. Did you say it? I said to Meebles, sir.

What did you say? I said, you're too young to retire. Who retires at 23? What kind of meniscus tear is this? And then I just, I said, what do you do with the rest of your life? And then I thought. Oh, my God. I know. And then they kept giving me tequila.

And I started getting more evil. And then I, at a point, we just stopped because I see them look. Like a little upset. Yeah, he looked and he just blinked. Like it's too real. And then we turned the corner. We started talking like regular ****. Because, you know, when you're on the hood, you're on the block, you're on the corner.

And these three Jewish friends, they don't know what the **** is going on. They think we're going to fight. I'm like, no, we ain't fighting yet. It's just hot in here. And so afterward, you know, we got cool. We was talking the ****. And here's what's **** up about me. As we're talking, all I'm doing is thinking about snaps for the next time I see the snaps.

You grown-ass s*** with a space in his teeth. Use your money the right way and get your goddamn f***ing teeth fixed. Clearly it's still on your mind this morning. It is. I woke up and I had more jokes. I said, s***, he looked like the villain in the Peter Cottontail cartoon. Well, I guess that's why he was going at you on Instagram. He did?

That's what Marlon wants. Marlon's like, please grab me on Instagram. Oh, now you got me sweating. You did for real? No. No. My Victor's my man. It was fun.

It reminded me of the block. At the end of the day, I'm just a... And you can't... Once you start doing this shit professionally, don't fuck with comedians, because we'll stay up, literally. I couldn't sleep last night. Now my fucking voice is gone,

and I feel fucked up, and I'm sorry. I want to... I'm apolog... Victor Cruz, I'm apologizing. I said anything that was slightly evil. I meant it, but'm apologize, Victor Cruz, I'm apologize if I said anything that was slightly evil. I meant it, but I didn't mean it

to hurt your feelings. That's very true about comedians though. You might throw one at him and then you think he's going to throw one back to me. Would you throw a jab at Floyd Mayweather?

No. No. Why the fuck you with me? He was like three hours later and he said, you still going? I said, I do four shows a night.

I don't give a fuck. You're going? I said, I do four shows a night. I don't give a. You're going to be tired. I'm not. I'm sorry. Let's go back to sex tuplets, man. Now everybody going to think I'm on cocaine and I'm not. I don't even like cocaine. You're always sweating though.

I know, but that's why every time I come on here, it's like you do cocaine. I'm like, no, let's keep that room hot. It's actually very cold in here. It's very cold. Now sex tuplets, you just every character in Sex Template? I want every check. I'm tired of splitting money with my brothers. I want my own check.

I want to split it with my fucking self. You wrote it, produced it, started it. I co-wrote it. Mike Glock wrote it. Rick and I, my producing partner, Rick Alvarez, we rewrote it. And then, yeah, me and Rick produced it. And Mike Titus, who's directed all my other movies, directed it and I play six characters.

So you find out that you are a sextuplet. Yeah, I play a guy named Alan. Alan is about to have a baby, so he's having somewhat of a crisis because he's adopted. So he wants to find his birth family to introduce his kids to. So he goes on a journey to find his birth family

and he finds his brother Russell, who's played by me. That's the fat one, right? The fat one. Yeah, Russell talks like this. And so Russell and him discover that they're one of six sextuplets.

So we go on a road trip to find the rest of our other sextuplets and I play every last single sextuplet. And this is, it's a mind blow, but it's my best work.

And my sister, Kim, she was so cute because my sister, my family is critical. And my sister, Kim, she was so cute, because my sister, my family is critical. And my sister, who is very hard on me, because she always believes that, yo, you're better than that. You're better than that. This one, she said, Marlon,

this movie was special. She said, that's the baby boy that I know. She said, this is not just a movie for the comedy that comedy needs. This is the movie the world needs. And I started laughing, like, you think this is going just a movie for the comedy that comedy needs. This is the movie the world needs. And I started laughing like, you think this is going to stop world issues? They should show this at the Hong Kong airport.

They need to show this to Trump. All his racism will go away. You know, and she was just so proud of me. She was like, there was no body fluids. It was all appropriate. You wasn't humping a stuffed animal. I didn't see your ass not one time. She said, baby boy, this is

your best work. And so I'm going to take her word for it. So Kim hated all your other stuff? She didn't like it. She liked moments. My sister will be very honest with you. I like this about that. That's crazy you got that kind of gauge though. I didn't even think about that. I'm like, man, you can let Kenan see your s*** and Damon

and Kim. And it's like, if they wouldn't like it, I wouldn't know if I would put it out. No, see, that's why I don't ask their opinion until after. Kenan have you waiting on one project for 30 years. Is it ready now? You, you gotta mind three more drafts that you gotta do. Kenan don't f*** around. We did Don't Be a Menace. Kenan made us do 19 drafts before we shot a scene, right? And once we filmed it, the director messed the movie up.

So we had to reshoot an entire movie. But the fact that we did 19 drafts prepared us for the 10 days that we had to rewrite a completely different movie that in seven days that we had to rewrite a completely different movie that in seven days we had to reshoot a completely different movie. And if it wasn't for the practice of writing those 19 drafts, we wouldn't have been able to put Don't Be a Menace together to make a classic.

All right, we got more with Marlon Wayans. When we come back, don't move. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. We're still kicking it with Marlon Wayans.

Now, why Netflix for this movie? You know, it's just they're not doing a lot of comedies out there. If you look at the movies, like the theaters, the box office, they're not doing comedies like they were doing comedies. They're not doing movies the way they used to do movies. And honestly, Netflix embraces comedy and they embrace diversity. And for me, I'm a diverse comedian. So for that platform, and it's worldwide, people don't understand.

My last movie was number one in 193 countries. That's what Naked did. Oh, yeah. Yeah, and it's at home. You ain't got to leave your crib. So the numbers that's on Netflix is sickening. Now they're in over 200 million homes. So if you're looking for worldwide superstar status,

then go to a worldwide platform. Like Marlon, my numbers on Netflix with Marlon is way bigger than it ever was on NBC. I wish NBC would stop wasting black creatives' time with sitcoms. You? You talking to a dude's time they wasted. Because I don't feel like they gave him a proper shot. I don't feel like they gave Gerard a proper shot.

I don't feel like they gave you a proper shot. Can you go sit and talk to... Can you call whoever the white man is over there and tell him this point of view? Do you have an all-over deal with Netflix? No. Since you do so much with them. Uh-uh.

You want to talk to him? Hey, y'all got good ideas. You go talk to the white man at NBC. You go talk to the brother at Netflix. We going to get this check. And you, we going to get this real estate money. Hey, I be seeing you doing that real estate. And I'm like, I got some extra chips to throw into this DJ Envy.

I see you driving Rolls Royces and things, different color ones. You got some real cake. Don't sit here looking like a relief pitcher for the Yankees. Papote Rivera, don't do this. I know you can't pitch. You got that money. You got that money. I enjoy it, man.

But you know what? I leave here and that's all I do for the rest of the day. I do real estate. And I actually go into the houses. I look at them. I go into buildings and figure it out. That's what I enjoy. I think I want to enjoy that.

I want to, you got to, I'm going to sit down with you. Now, what about white chicks, too? Are we working on that? Did you start yet? You got to be tired of that question. Don't make me. I can't call Terry Crews a liar because he's big and he's buff. And if he ever hits me, his fist is going to go through my chest.

But he's not telling the truth. So he's a liar. No, he's not a liar. Don't do this. Maybe he's not telling the truth. So he's a liar. So he's a liar. No, he's not a liar. Don't do this. Maybe he's trying to speak it into existence. He said y'all about to start. Yeah, but no. Just don't start until we get a check and we get...

Maybe you're not involved in it. Wait, you know what's messed up? Nowadays, that's the type of s*** they do. What happened to you in a scary movie? White Chase starring Kevin Hart. What the s***? That happened to you in a scary movie? White Chicks starring Kevin Hart. What the s***? That happened to you in a scary movie, right? Yeah, a scary movie happened like that.

But you know what? Here's the thing. But that was that time. It won't happen like that on White Chicks because there'll be massive lawsuits. When we were younger, we was like, yo, take that. But now, and look what happened with that franchise.

It dies over time. Me and my brothers know what the sequel will be. We already know we want to do it, but what I'm not going to do is beg a studio to go do it. It's going to take a budget to make White Chicks 2. We can't just do it, and we can't do it for the same budget we did because inflation and everything went up, and if we're going to do White Chicks 2,

we've got to make a classic just as good as the first one, or it's not worth doing. Those white women are going to be outraged. Cultural appropriation. No, they'll love it. You're making a mockery of their culture. They'll love it. If you do the jokes the right way, nobody's upset.

You know who loves? Here's a good joke. If I'm cracking a joke on you, and I'm talking about Puerto Ricans, and Puerto Ricans are laughing. Envy, look at Envy. Then that's a damn good joke. And Puerto Ricans, they'll laugh. They want you, y'all. They'll laugh. You got 10 minutes

and then they're like, I talk about the n****tos. But if it's a good joke, the people that you're making fun of laugh the loudest. If I do a gay joke and the gays are laughing, that's a damn good joke. You know who loves white chicks the best? White chicks. So it's a damn good joke

and a damn good movie because the culture that we're sending up embraces it. And we don't attack when we do movies. We're not out to attack. We're out to make everybody laugh at themselves. We are called equal opportunity offenders. You're not scared. I was watching Hangover. I was on a plane watching Hangover.

Yeah. And there was one scene when they pulled up to his house. And they was like, doctor, what? I was like, there is no way. Doctor the gay slur. That rhymes with maggot. I said, there is no way. Doctor the gay slur. That rhymes with maggot. I said, there is no way they can do that now. But I don't know if people found it offensive.

Here's what people don't understand. The world ain't as sensitive as you think. I'm on stage every weekend. I talk about everything, okay? Especially having to do with, you know, culture. I talk about everything. The audience is receptive to it. They laugh because they know that what I'm saying

is not out to just hurt people. I'm here to make everybody laugh about stuff that's hurting us all. The only place people are sensitive is on social media that alerts the media, and then the media sends the story of, this is how we're all feeling. That's bulls**t. And it's out of context sometimes. That's not the way people feel.

People like to laugh. When they go to a comedy store, say what you want. We can still do jokes the way we live in America. First Amendment, freedom of f**king speech. I'm going to use that for the rest of my days. I ain't apologizing for s**t I do in comedy. F**k it. I meant it.

I was supposed to be funny. With that said, I want to apologize to Victor Cruz about the meniscus thing. I ain't apologizing for shit I do in comedy. Fuck it. I meant it. I was supposed to be funny. With that said, I want to apologize to Victor Cruz about the meniscus thing. I felt bad about that. That's the one that probably hurt him. With that being said. Because he ain't defending us the way he wanted to defend us. That one probably hurt him for real. Yeah, I felt bad.

But he's got more jokes next time he sees you. He don't feel bad. I'll see you again, Victor. I'll let you get three or four off. From all I got to go, he got TV to do that. All right. Well, Sex Topless is on Netflix today, Friday. Yes, today, Victor. I'll let you get three or four. From all I got to go, he got TV to do that. All right, well, Sex Topless is on Netflix today, Friday. Yes, today, yes.

Check it out. My best work by far. I'm really proud of this one. And I feel like this performance, I deserve a damn Oscar or some kind of gold statue. Put it out there. Okay. I put it in the universe. Why not?

Well, let's watch it. Terry Crews is. And let's chime in. All right. It's more on the waves. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. My, let's watch it. And let's chime in.

It used to be a title exclusive, but now they have additional streaming services with that. And speaking of Jay-Z, Benny the Butcher, he said he was asked to do the XXL cover and Jay-Z talked him out of it. He told him I was going to do it, but he told me not to. He made a big point. He let me know that when it's my time, there ain't going to be no voting. I ain't going to have to share it. He said Jay-Z broke down a similar situation that he had earlier in his career. He told me about a situation where somebody turned something down and showed him that it's okay to be you and take the work that you're comfortable with for your brand.

So he said he had always wanted it, but he said, I told these people, no, what is happening in my life? So make sure you guys check out that full interview of Crook's Corner.

Can't stick with us, but you might go. I'm a pretty b***h, that's a ditty b***h. We got a milli b***h, so I'll go. Those silly b***hs, I'm Achilles b***h. It's your pop, who the f*** wants smoke?

That little P gets a popping. He gets a giggling. Hey. They ban me from the show, but always talking about me.

I'm pulling up because we in New York soon. I'd rather be invited, though. Just saying. Nicki, you know I love you. You don't have to say things like that to get my attention. Well, she's invited, right? She is not banned from the Breakfast Club. She never was disinvited. Nobody ever banned Nicki Mina you know I love you. Like, you don't have to say things like that to get my attention. Well, she's invited, right? She is not banned from the Breakfast Club. She never was disinvited.

Nobody ever banned Nicki Minaj from the Breakfast Club. She's not banned from the Breakfast Club. Safari has been banned from the Breakfast Club because of DJ Envy, you know?

I wonder if him and 50 and him and Jim Jones squashed their beef. I'm curious about that. Oh, you did? That's what I wonder. I don't know. Because you just shouted them out in the song. All right. That was that.

Welcome to the party. I'm balling like I'm Jimmy. Now, speaking of more music, Saweetie is going to have Jhene Aiko and City Girls on the My Type remix. That should be good. And last but not least, let's talk about Lil Nas X. He is on the cover of Time. He said, as far as coming out, he said, I never would have done that if I wasn't in

a way pushed by the universe. In June, I'm seeing pride flags everywhere and seeing couples holding hands, little stuff like that. And he said he first came out to his father and sister in early June, and then he let his fans and followers know some weeks later. Who's that, Lil Nas X? Yes, Lil Nas X. I did the shop with Lil Nas X, the shop on HBO to be out September 3rd. He said he had to hold his fart in for the longest when he was in the picture. He said that? Yeah, he posted it. He said it had to hold his fart in for the longest when he was in the picture. He said that?

Yeah, he posted it. He said it's the longest I ever had to fart in. Well, I appreciate you, Lord Nasdaq, and I'm going to tell you why. If you were to fart in, you would have to pull your pants off. This is funny. Let's say this live. Everybody knows that when men fart around other men,

it's a form of flirting. So somebody in there had them turned on, but he had to hold it in. He didn't want to flirt with nobody. You know, there's a lot of married men in there. Myself, Kev. Who else was married in that picture?

I don't know. Maverick Carter was there. CJ McCollum was on the show. Kevin Love. Rob Gronkowski. Who else? I think that's it. Man, PJ.

That was you. Probably you. That's a lot of people. Probably you. I mean, that's the shop. It's always like seven, eight people on the shop.

That's the plan. She's supposed to be out in the end of the month. How hard is it to manage female rappers? What's the difference in dealing with the female rappers than the male artists? You got to ear, man, man. You got to ear for them, P. It seem like.

Nah, I mean, I mean, just female artists, they're a little more emotional because they're women. But, but, s***. I don't know,

men are so emotional nowadays, too. Yeah. That's what I was just about to say. Everybody. Some of the men than the women. You know, some of the women

standing up harder than the men. I think for women, it's just preparation time. That's what I was going to say. Yeah, I was going to say. Some of the men than the women. You know, some of these women standing up harder than the men. I think for women it's just preparation time. That's what I was going to say. Yeah, I was going to say with the women. You can't just roll out. We're like,

hold on, I got to get hair, makeup. Yeah, dealing with men, you got to give them that time. We need advanced notice. You know, it's kind of,

we first signed the City Girls, we like, you know, we used to have when our guys, we shoot videos, hey, let's get in,

let's go. It's like, damn, okay, they mean it. You know what I'm saying? Six hours. You know what I'm saying?'s get in. Let's go. It's like, damn, okay, they mean it. Yeah, make up. You know what I'm saying? Six hours. Six, seven hours.

You know what I'm saying? To get started. So now we learned, you know, we learn now. But, like, in the beginning, it was like, damn. It was pushy, pushy, pushy. Hold on. You got to give us time, you know? Right.

How did y'all meet? Because I know we know Coach from, you know, Gucci, Jeezy, and P, you had your thing on the side. How did y'all come together and say, you know what, let's trust each other and work with each other? Because that's a hard one to go into business with somebody. I met him when I was managing Gucci. Him and Gucci are like this, you know.

And P had a studio at the time. He actually had his own label. But then he stopped. Then he had a studio. And we kind of, you know, when you're around each other, we start, we was watching each other, watching each other, watching each other. And one day, P hit me. He was like, hey, man, I'm trying to get some artists in other, watching each other. And one day Pete hit me and was like, hey man, I'm trying to get some artists in the studio I just built. I put a lot of money into the studio.

I know you connected. You know a lot of artists. Can you help me? You know what I'm saying? And it was to a point like, I know you know the labels and all that. Let's get some of these artists through here because I got a lot of money invested in the studio. And I went and seen the studio.

And at the time, I always wanted to start a label, you know what I mean? And watching P, I'm like, I came to him, I was like, man, listen, man, I think we should probably start a label together. You know what I mean? He was like, I'm with it. But he was like, you know, I gotta be real careful

because I just dumped a lot of money into a label and it just really, you know, I didn't see nothing, you know, and I was like, trust me on this. And who was the first artist? Migos. Migos was the first artist to jump up. Yeah, first artist. What's the system of checks and balances for you two?

If somebody wants to sign somebody, do you both have to say, I'm with it? If one person agrees, is that good enough? Or do y'all ever not agree? No, we just always support each other. We don't win together, lose together. It's just like... So it's never been something that one of you believed in,

but the other one didn't? City Girls. Yeah. We've had our own. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. P, when I first called him City Girls, he was like, I don't know about this. Why you feel that way, P?

Nah, it's just, I don't know. Like, they ain't, I don't know. They ain't had any but one song. I think it was like one song. It was one song. It's just the stuff they was talking about. I was just like, uh. And then he showed me a picture of him.

I was just like, I just didn't get it. But after I met them, you know what I'm saying? After I met them and just felt their energy and their personalities, I started seeing everything he was talking about. So I was after I met him and just felt their energy and their personalities I started seeing everything he was talking about so I was in see he grows up 1.2 million

but one thing I would say about you I was talking to somebody yesterday they was like you know one thing I said about QC not only do they

develop talent they said their business is great they said they keep their word they said they'll turn down a check to keep their word

and they said in this game you don't really see that too much. And I was like, that's dope. You got to try to keep your face clean in this business if you want to try to. Like for me, this ain't no lick. This is like my life now. So, you know, in order for you, I try to tell my whole team, like, man, the same people you're going to see going up, you got to see them, like, when shit ain't good.

So I always just try to keep your word and try to do fair and good business with everybody because, like, when shit ain't good, folks are going to remember how you did business with them. And, you know what I'm saying, they're going to still support you, you know what I'm saying, until you get that right. So you got to always just keep your face clean. So, Pete, you been going to therapy? I saw you on Big Boy. Nah, nah, nah.

Nah, I was just saying, like, nah, he asked me something about it, and I was just saying how I see I need to go to therapy. But, you know. Oh, you go, Coach? Where? How long you been going? Strong like a year now. You think that something should be implemented like at labels
