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.

Good morning, USA.
Yeah, wake up, wake up, wake up, it's Friday!
That wasn't a yo-yo-yo-yo-yo-yo-yo-yo.
Wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up!
Well, it's Friday!
What up, Angela Yee?
I just said that.
I said it again. I said it loud. I said it more hype.
I said it more wit, attitude, more excitement.
Get him, girl!
Oh, shut up.
Well, good morning to you, Yee.
Good morning.
How was your night, Envy?
My night was actually great.
We went on a date night.
This is the first time that me and the wife went out
since we had the baby.
I thought you were going to say you went Charlamagne.
No.
Me and the wife went out last night.
This was the first time where she was able to drink
a little champagne.
She hasn't been able to drink in nine months, of course,
because of the baby.
Gia barely drinks anyway, though.
I know, but she was able to drink and let loose yesterday.
So we went to a restaurant called Mr. Chow's.
Okay.
And it's, I would guess, is it Chinese food?
Yeah, it's Chinese.
Chinese food, and it's probably one of my favorite restaurants.
Chinese is very expensive, very overpriced.
That's why you love it?
No, the food is good, but it's just overpriced.
Okay.
It's the same food you get in the hood.
Tastes damn near the same.
No, it doesn't.
Yes, it does.
It definitely does not taste the same.
Yes, it does, but it's just a little overpriced.
I go to Mr. Child's all the time.
Baller.
I'm just saying.
I go there.
It's right near our job.
Part of the reason that we go there all the time.
And it's definitely not the same.
And shout out to your friend, L'Oreal.
Your friend, L'OOreal put me on to,
it's going to sound crazy,
salt and pepper lobster.
I seen her order it one time,
maybe four or five years ago,
and I was like, oh, this is amazing. Now every time I go, I had it.
So that was my night.
It was date night.
We just went out with the wife
and just relaxed, just had a good time
and just cuddled and chilled without the kids.
What are y'all rich folks talking about this morning?
Envy went on his first date night
since having a baby.
I heard y'all talking about lobsters and stuff.
I just want to be able to buy a bagel this morning.
A nice whole wheat bagel.
I don't eat seafood, so
I'm like the cheapest date ever because I don't eat
seafood and that's really what's more
expensive. I don't eat red meat either. Really?
So there's no steaks, there's no lobsters.
So what the hell do you eat? Chicken.
Oh, chicken. I eat vegetables.
I eat poultry. I eat so much red meat and seafood. I'm like, well, what the hell else you eat? Chicken. I'm trying to think. Oh, chicken. I eat vegetables. She eats chicken. I eat vegetables. I eat poultry.
I eat so much red meat and seafood.
I'm like, well, what the hell else is out there?
She eats chicken.
Right.
Well, last night I went to go see Ro Timmy perform.
Okay.
What's his name on power?
Ro Timmy's name on power?
What is his name on power?
I forgot his name on power.
That's the guy on power that works with Ghost and Truth.
Yeah, in the club.
Yes.
Yeah, you went to see him last night.
Now, I was going to go see him,
but I thought I was late.
I didn't get to the city until 7.30,
but you said he didn't get on until 10.30?
Yeah, he told me he was going on stage at 8.30,
so I didn't think I was going to make it
because I was working all day yesterday,
and I wasn't done,
but he told me he's actually going on at 10.30.
So I got there in time to see him perform.
Was Ghost with him?
No, but...
What about Kanan?
Tommy was there. Kanan Kanan? Tommy was there.
Kanan was there.
Tommy was there?
Yes.
Okay.
He plays Dre on Power.
Dre.
Dre on Power.
There you go.
Tommy, a.k.a. in real life, his name is Joseph Sikora.
No, nobody care what his name is in real life.
50 Cent came out on stage.
They did their song together.
I just hit the lotto.
I just hit the lotto.
Okay.
So he came through.
Why is all 50's music on Power more fire than what it seems like he puts out in real life?
Or did he put that out in real life and we just missed it?
He did put it out.
He put that out.
We were playing it for the longest.
That's what Timmy said.
So why does it seem like nobody cared?
Because that music on power is dope.
Well, that's what Timmy's single.
I ain't talking about the road Timmy's single.
I'm talking about the stuff they play at the end of power.
They play records.
Yeah, those are singles.
Yeah, those are singles.
Even when he had I'm the Man on Baller.
I'm the Man was tough.
That was a tough tune.
Yeah, there's records. Well, we really been'm the Man on Baller. I'm the Man was tough. That was a tough tune. Yeah, there's records.
Well, we really been sleeping on 50 Cent then.
He been putting out records.
Just nobody cares.
You know what it is?
50's personality is bigger than his music.
That's what it is.
Well, it was very exciting when Rotimi brought him out on stage.
He has signed, because he has signed to 50 Cent also.
He signed to 50, yep.
So that's the person.
He's on Power, and he's also signed to 50 Cent.
But we had a great time.
I saw a lot of people there last night.
It was packed.
It was a sold-out show.
So I saw Yandy was in there.
I saw Sway.
I saw Uncle Murda.
There was a lot of people.
Was anybody doing the colon cancer challenge?
Nobody was doing that challenge that you've come up with.
The colon cancer challenge.
Have you seen anybody do that yet?
No, but I'm going to convince somebody to do the colon cancer challenge.
Colon cancer challenge is when you put your own finger in your butt
to check yourself if you've got colon cancer. Oh, right. It's a great cause. You know what the cancer challenge. Colon cancer challenge is when you put your own finger in your butt to check yourself if you got colon cancer.
All right.
It's a great cause.
You know what the cause is?
Colon cancer.
Now, today we have
a couple of people
joining us this morning.
We have comedian
Aries Spears.
Aries Spears.
I know Aries won't do
the colon cancer challenge.
You know him from
Mad TV.
He's a comedian.
Hilarious.
And also, we have
a new artist joining us
this morning.
She goes by the name
of Young M.A.
Young M.A.
Drop one of the
clues bombs for
Young M.A., damn it.
Representing Brooklyn. All right, so we'll talk to you about all of them, but we got the name of Young M.A. Young M.A. Drop one of the clues bombs for Young M.A., damn it. Representing Brooklyn.
All right, so we'll talk to you about all of them, but we got front page news next year.
Man, we are going to talk about your boys, the U.S. Olympic swimmers, including Ryan Lochte.
What is going on?
They have to pay all kinds of fines.
Did they lie about getting robbed in Brazil?
Yes, they lied, and it wasn't a little white lie, okay?
It was a grown man white lie.
We'll talk about it when we come back.
Keep it locked. It's the Breakfast Club. Good The grown man white lie. We'll talk about it when we come back. Keep it locked.
It's the Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
Here's Drake.
It's One Dance.
And it's Friday, damn it.
Now let's get to the Olympics, an Olympic update, and front page news.
Usain Bolt, he won the 200-meter gold.
Yeah, he didn't just win, man.
He won by, like, a few people, meaning that if you had to measure it by people,
like four or five people were behind him.
That boy fast.
I want to race Usain Bolt just to see how bad I would lose.
No, you don't.
That's what I do.
You don't want to get embarrassed.
It's the same thing when I sparred with Sean Porter.
Like, Sean Porter's a world-class fighter,
so you really want to see how those elite type of athletes,
like, are in person.
I want to race Usain Bolt just to see how bad I'd lose.
By the time they say go, he'll be at the finish line.
That's fine.
You'll just be getting off the blocks. I just want to feel it. That's all. You want to feel it? Okay. That's all. I just want to time they say go, he'll be at the finish line. That's fine. You'll just be getting off the blocks.
I just want to feel it.
That's all.
You want to feel it?
Okay.
I just want to feel it.
Now let's talk about the U.S. swimmers.
Liars.
Liars.
We do this, though.
I will tell you this.
Ryan Lochte is still sticking by his story.
Okay.
See, he's committed.
Now you want to commit to the lie.
You're going all the way with it.
You got to commit better.
You should have committed yesterday.
Lochte is saying this was a robbery.
Brazilian authorities are saying that it wasn't, But there's one thing that did happen.
Everyone agrees.
There was a gun that was brandished, and there was money that exchanged hands.
Here's the difference in the stories.
Now, according to Ryan Lochte, there was a gun pointed in his direction, and he was forced to pay money.
And that's how they managed to get out of there.
But according to Brazilian authorities, that is not exactly true.
Now, what happened is they went to the gas station.
I guess they were coming from a party, the four Olympic swimmers.
And that's when there was a crime that was committed by the swimmers.
Public urination.
And that's when armed security came over to them and told them they had to pay a fine.
They paid that fine. And therefore, they were able to exit after that happened.
Is that a robbery?
So they didn't get into a fight?
I thought it was a fight.
I thought they said they got into a fight with a security guard.
Yeah, trying to bust open a door or something.
Yeah, they were trying to break down a door.
There's video also of what happened.
That's where money did exchange hands.
Now, they're saying in the U.S. it's considered robbery if there's a gun and money is demanded.
But according to Brazilian authorities, they did something they weren't supposed to do.
They committed a crime.
They were the only ones who committed a crime.
And therefore, they had to pay.
And the gas station, the owner's not pressing charges.
Nothing like that.
The only issue is now the U.S. Olympics has apologized to Brazil.
They hosted the Olympics just for this whole entire situation.
So there was no fight.
This is confusing.
I heard there was a fight yesterday.
Basically, the swimmers were saying that men were dressed as police
so they were forced on the ground and held at gunpoint.
That's not what happened.
What happened is they committed a crime.
They urinated behind the building.
They claimed they were just going to use the bathroom,
and that's when the armed security came over to them.
This is the problem with lying.
Number one, when you lie, you have to keep telling more lies
to cover up that original lie,
so then it just all sounds like a bunch of BS,
which we knew it was since yesterday.
This is not a little white lie.
This is a grown man white lie,
but as the media likes to call it,
them softening the story.
You can't say they softened the story anymore. They lie.
Now let's talk about Uber Everywhere for free.
Well, oh, is it free?
I don't know. I'm asking you. Well, they're
actually going to do that for a little while
for self-driving Volvo. So
the newest Uber driver in Pittsburgh
is going to be a Volvo driver, and it's a self-driving
car. That's a $300
million project they're doing, so
the deal isn't exclusive. People can
work with other companies. Right now,
there are six self-driving Volvos being
tested in Pittsburgh. By the end of
the year, there will be 100 of them.
Didn't somebody die from one of them self-driving vehicles?
I don't think I want a self-driving car.
Nah, I'm cool on that. There's just certain things you have to
do yourself. Like, you gotta take a shower
by yourself. You know what I'm saying? You gotta go to the
bathroom and do it number two by yourself. You know, there's certain things you don't want nobody doing. You wouldn't got to take a shower by yourself. You know what I'm saying? You got to go to the bathroom and do it number two
by yourself.
You know, there's certain things
you don't want nobody doing.
You wouldn't want to do it.
You wouldn't want to be peeing
and have somebody hold your penis
while you're urinating.
You want to hold it yourself,
aim, you know what I mean?
I'm not mad at the self-driving car,
but, you know,
as long as there's a way
that you can press the brake
and maybe there's a brake
in the back,
like an emergency brake,
because when you ride on a plane,
the plane is really self-flying.
You know when people
just press the emergency? Whoa, whoa, whoa. The planes are on autopilot and plane is really self-flying. You know when people just press into the emergency?
Whoa, whoa, whoa.
The planes are on autopilot
and it's just the pilot sitting there.
There's a lot of pilots out there
listening saying,
what, sir?
The pilot is still there
in the cockpit.
The pilot is still in the cockpit,
but it's flying autopilot.
So the pilot don't be having
his hands on the wheel
the whole time?
No.
No.
Really?
Yes.
See, I don't want to fly no more now.
I didn't know that.
But at least somebody's there in case there's an emergency. Somebody's there just in case. Yeah, but it's. See, I don't want to fly no more now. I didn't know that. But at least somebody's there in case there's an emergency.
Somebody's there just in case.
Yeah, but it's.
Nah, I don't like that.
So you mean you just take off and then you just chill and watch Netflix?
Yes.
Oh, no, no, no, no.
I got to think about this plane thing.
We got to reconsider this.
All right.
That's front page news.
Tell them why you're mad.
800-585-1051.
If you're upset, you need to vent.
Call us right now.
Maybe you're pissed off. Maybe you had a
bad morning. Whatever it may be, call us now.
It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning.
The Breakfast Club.
Hey, yo. This is DMX.
You know what makes me mad?
We ask for the truth, but can't
handle the truth. Now tell them why you mad
on The Breakfast Club, bitches.
Oh, my God. So I work two jobs, but I get direct deposit on two different days.
Okay, okay.
Baller.
So, yeah, I got one check on Friday, the other one on Saturday.
But this Friday, bro, by the time they take the car insurance
and the little loan that I got and my phone bill,
I got like 17 bucks left out of my first check.
That's usually what happens on the first.
That check you get in the middle of the month is kind of that one you can just play with a little bit.
Nah, but this is the middle of the month, and I'm left with like money.
I'm pulling up in the gas station right now.
All I got is money to buy gas right now.
I go right back to work.
I feel like a robot.
Hey, appreciate that, though, because some people don't have money for gas.
Trust me when I tell you, brother.
I know, man, but it's great.
Yeah, pretty much.
Well, that's good news.
It's better than being in debt. That's true. Hey, tell me. Yo. All planes are fly by wire know, man. But it's great. Yeah, pretty much. Well, that's good news. It's better than being in debt.
That's true.
Hey, tell me.
Yo.
All planes are fly by wire, my man.
Nobody's really flying planes.
The pilots just really set the coordinates for the plane, and they just really oversee
taking off and landing.
I had no idea.
I know, because I used to work for JetBlue, and I work for Delta now.
I had no idea.
We don't know what they're doing.
They might be sleeping.
We don't know what they're doing.
Lord have mercy. They get up, go to the bathroom. They get call, we don't know what they're doing. They might be sleeping. We don't know what they're doing. Lord have mercy.
They get up, go to the bathroom.
They get up, go to the bathroom.
Sometimes the stewardess go in there, and then she gone for a couple minutes.
So when planes crash, it's never the pilot's fault.
To be able to avoid, that's an emergency that you have to go through.
Well, don't ask me to grab the wheel now if you don't want me to grab the wheel no other time.
Hello, who's this?
Yo, this is Reese, man.
Tell him why you mad, Reese.
Yo, listen, man.
Look, I was supposed to have my easy short route today on a Friday, right?
It was supposed to have been done
by 10 o'clock this morning.
I had an executive appointment
to go and test drive
the Tesla today
that my man was supposed to get.
Okay.
Do you know
that they called me
to go and run
this other kid route
far away?
My brother,
how long you had a paper route?
Who bike you using?
Come on, man. Come on, man. Who bike you using?
Come on, man.
Stop playing.
Have a good morning, bro.
I'm doing simply, man.
Thanks, man. Love you, man.
All right, brother.
Hello, who's this?
Yo, it's your man Christian.
How you doing?
Christian, tell him why you mad, bro.
Well, first of all, I'm mad because my man Charlemagne thought the pilot was in the cockpit.
Hey, man, I don't claim to be the highest grade of weed in the dispensary, sir.
Look, he thought he was in there looking at the rearview mirror.
There's a rearview mirror in the plane?
No, there ain't no damn rearview mirror.
Oh, I was about to say, what kind of plane is y'all flying?
Nah, man, but real time, I appreciate y'all.
And Charlemagne knows it goes on autopilot.
They only put the wheels down and all that other stuff when you're about to land.
You got to ask to get in the cockpit one time, Charlamagne.
Hey, watch your mouth, Angela.
Watch your mouth.
What?
You never been in a cockpit?
Hey, come on, y'all.
You sound like you have.
Stop it, man.
Angela, he loves the cockpit.
Don't be that homophobic.
Jesus Christ.
Okay.
You ever been in the cockpit?
Yo, pause.
No homo.
Yo, I ain't gay.
What?
Tell them why you mad.
800-585-1051.
If you're upset, you need to vent, call us now.
It's The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
The Breakfast Club.
That was Rihanna needed me.
Morning, everybody.
It's DJ, MV, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God.
We are The Breakfast Club.
It's Friday.
Yes, it is Friday.
And I'm going to tell you something.
I don't want to see behind the curtain.
Like, sometimes you don't need to see how the food is made.
I don't want to know that planes fly on autopilot.
Everybody knows that.
I don't care.
I didn't know.
So don't say everyone knows because I didn't know.
Everybody today that called up knew.
Boy, that's fine.
That still don't mean everybody in the world knows because clearly I didn't know until 20, 30 minutes ago.
You really thought the pilot was there to hold you up?
Yes, I thought the pilot was in there.
I know some second graders that didn't know until 20, 30 minutes ago. You really thought the pilot was there to hold you up? Yes, I thought the pilot was in there. I know some second graders
that didn't know that as well.
Think about it.
Think about when the plane
turns sometimes
and all kinds of stuff
and when they circle in the place.
I didn't know all that
was on autopilot.
They said they actually
set a course that the plane
has to follow
and that's all done.
Hey, I didn't know.
But then the pilot
does take over
when certain things go wrong
or if they have to land
and when they take off
that's when the pilot
really gets there.
They're having a party in there.
Well, I didn't know and I don't want my car to do that.
The same thing on a train.
The conductor on a train doesn't sit there and steer the train the whole time.
Train, I can understand because train is on a track.
That makes more sense.
This plane is just in the air.
There's no cables.
There's nobody holding it.
It's not suspended in nothing.
It's just floating.
You know what I mean?
Well, next up...
Things that float, you just can't leave to themselves.
Yeah, well, it happens.
All right.
It's crazy.
Well, today, Aries Spears will be joining us.
He's a comedian.
He was from MADtv.
He still does MADtv, correct?
He's on Autopilot, too, by the way.
I don't think MADtv comes on anymore.
Oh, well, yeah, he's on Autopilot, too.
Yeah, he's been on Autopilot for a long time.
And also Young M.A.
Now, Young M.A. is a young artist from Brooklyn.
She don't use no hands either, from what I heard.
She's from Best Eye.
Right, she's a female artist who gets busy. She's nice. hands either, from what I heard. She's from Best Guy. Right. She's a female artist who gets busy.
She's nice.
One of my favorite artists right now.
But she is openly gay.
She prefers women.
Yeah, she prefers women.
Right.
But she got a song that's really big right now.
Two songs that are pretty big right now.
I'm trying to figure out.
She's not the...
She's not a femme lesbian.
There you go.
She's the man in relationship.
She plays football.
I forgot what you actually called her.
I didn't remember either.
Stud?
Stud lesbian. Stud? Stud lesbian.
Stud?
Butch.
I don't know if they like butch or stud.
We'll ask when she comes.
She's like Queen Latifah and set it off.
Perfect example.
There you go.
Perfect example.
Okay.
She'd be the top if she was a man.
Well, yeah, I guess.
I'm pretty sure she would be.
We'll talk to her when she comes a little bit later.
Power top, too.
Power top.
Gives you hard handshakes when she daps you up.
We got rumors coming up.
Yes, we are going to talk about Living Legends.
That's a show that Jadakiss has on his company, So Raspy.
They interviewed Allen Iverson,
and he talks about his top five basketball players
and his top five artists.
All right, let's see if you know who he said.
Also, Countess Vaughn put out a new video,
and everybody was talking about this on the net yesterday.
Guess who directed the
actual video and had to defend herself also?
Okay, we'll get into all that when we
come back. Keep it locked. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning.
The Breakfast Club.
It's just in.
All the gossip. The rumor report.
Gossip. It's the rumor report. The Breakfast gossip. The rumor report. The gossip.
It's the rumor report. The Breakfast Club.
Diddy is not our boss.
He's our partner. Okay. He's not our boss.
He's just trying to soften the blow right now because rumor has it
Diddy and Cassie have called it quits.
They got into a huge fight. He actually
took her phone. That's what the word on the
street is. He grabbed her cell phone and went through
it, started scrolling through when she told
him that she wanted to break up.
Now that is when Diddy jumped out of the car,
came back with the phone, and
she left with the driver, so
eventually he came back to the house, gave
her back the phone, but he took two cars that
were parked outside. Oh my gosh,
what's going on? This is what happens when you're
almost 50 and you're dating a youngin', okay? That young
box got Diddy going crazy.
Not to mention, Diddy has invested so much in Cassidy
that he's probably like, how dare you?
What you mean you're going to leave me and do what?
Work at Target?
But then he grabbed her phone and scrolled through it.
A guy did that to me one time.
It happens in relationships.
That is the worst.
They'll get back together.
It won't be a problem.
When I was young and dumb, I did that to my wife, too.
You grabbed her phone?
I sure did.
I don't know why.
Did you find anything?
No.
There was nothing in the phone.
But Cassie know what I know.
Girl, you gotta delete
that messages.
You said when you were what?
Young and dumb.
Diddy's not young and dumb.
He's old and smart.
Okay, let's be clear.
All right, let's be clear on that.
Diddy should not be
participating in this
kind of behavior.
Diddy was off that syrup.
You know, he was grabbing
phones.
Going through the phones.
See what young boys
you out here texting.
Who in your DMs?
How you work this Snapchat?
Somebody show me how to work this.
Let me see who she talking to.
But allegedly, they break up and get back together all the time.
They'll be fine.
The only thing is that Cassie did tell her mom what happened before Diddy showed up.
And she did call the cops.
So she did have to do a domestic incident report.
What?
Now, see, now behold.
It's a rule.
Your girl call the cops on you now.
No, her mom did.
Her mom called the cops.
Oh, okay, all right.
She told her mom.
And when the cops come,
they have to file out
an incident report.
I learned that from
a Tyler Perry movie or something.
I saw that somewhere.
So you do learn things
from Tyler Perry movies.
When your woman
called the cops on you,
you gotta be out.
But the mom, okay, I get it.
Right.
Some old man out here
threatening my daughter.
Took my daughter's phone.
Stupid.
All right.
Now, Jadakiss did an interview on his So Raspy website,
and the show is called Living Legends.
He interviewed Allen Iverson, who is a living legend.
Now, he talks about Allen Iverson's top five basketball players.
Listen to his answers.
Who's your top five basketball players?
Mike, Shaq, Kobe, LeBron.
Just who are you feeling today?
It was Steph, Westbrook, Kyrie, Durant, Melo.
That's not really five, but...
Yeah, that was five.
That was two different ones.
That's more than five.
He did the OG list.
He did four, and then he couldn't figure out who the fifth person should be. Yeah, but then he did the Today's list. Today's list. It was two different ones. That's more than five. No, he did the OG list. OG list. He did four, and then he couldn't figure out who the fifth person should be.
Yeah, but then he did the Today's list.
Today's list.
It was two different lists.
All right, they also asked him, Jadakiss also asked him about his top five artists.
Here's his answer to that.
Who's your top five artists?
You.
That big.
Ray, man.
Mm.
Mm.
Pop.
Mm.
Oh. That fifth one is always the clutch. Damn, Pop. Mmm. Oh.
That fifth one is always the clutch.
Damn, I got to leave out nine.
Jay-Z.
3,000.
Yeah.
Tip.
I like Tip.
I like Jay-Z.
Damn.
M.
Man, that lets me go on.
That is true.
You can't just name five.
Yeah, every time you get to five, you do add two more.
I do the same thing.
If you're like, who are your top five?
I name seven.
One of my favorite parts of this interview is Jadakiss' sound effects.
He never turns his sound effects off.
Yeah, he has his great sound effects.
All right, Darren Sharper has been sentenced to 18 years,
and that is for multiple rapes of multiple women.
Who's that?
Darren Sharper.
By the way, I thought Darren Sharper was in prison for that.
Right.
So apparently prosecutors did suggest
a nine-year prison term,
but the judge felt that was too lenient.
So now he got 18 years.
He had pleaded guilty and no contest
to charges from drugging and raping women
in New Orleans and in Arizona
and California and in Nevada.
So the sentence, he was also fined $20,000.
Woo!
Darren Sharp was one of those cases I could never quite figure out
because girls actually liked him, and he still was drugging women.
That's crazy.
Like, that's just weird.
Now, I told you, I had a similar, I had a friend when I was in high school,
and he actually did something just like that.
He was a good-looking guy.
Everybody liked him.
Very popular. Had a girlfriend.
And for some reason, he was
breaking into women's homes and
sexually assaulting them.
And I didn't believe it, because I was like, why would he do that?
He's a good looking guy. Everybody
likes him. That was my friend. Nothing strange
ever happened when he was around. So I
really couldn't figure that out, but he
definitely ended up going to jail for that.
I can't believe Darren Sharpe only got 18 years.
That's another thing.
For all of that, for drugging multiple women and raping them.
And I thought, wasn't he already in prison?
Or he was just sitting in jail waiting to be sentenced?
Yeah, he just got sentenced.
Oh, okay.
All right, well, that is, and it's as many as 16 different women.
So that does seem like a very lenient sentence.
All right, I'm Angela Yee, and that is your rumor report.
All right, thank you, Miss Yee.
Now, when we come back, we have a special comedian in the building.
He goes by the name of Aries Spears.
Haven't seen him in a long time.
Yes, Aries Spears is a very funny individual.
He might have been black.
He used to be really popular at one point, though.
He was really popular.
He had Mad TV.
I actually went to go see him perform, and he was really, really funny.
He was in movies, but he still makes a lot of money on the road.
He took a shot at Kevin Hart on social media about Kevin Hart having a ghostwriting.
Every comedian takes a shot at Kevin Hart.
So we'll talk to him about all that.
Did they get you blacked out?
Not every comedian, but most all of the older comedians that came before Kev,
and then Kev is kind of like past him, they take shots at Kev.
That's just the way it goes.
Please tell me why you always hate.
All right, we'll talk to him about that when we come back.
Keep it locked.
Aries Spares.
It's the Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
That was sorry, Beyonce.
Morning, everybody.
It's DJ, MV, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God.
We are the Breakfast Club.
We got a special guest in the building who I seen in the hall.
I said, you're coming for war.
That's not what you said.
That's not what you said.
Uh-oh.
And a fitting, like he's coming to bang.
What'd he say?
What'd he say?
He said Aries Spitz looks like he just came off the train.
He said Aries Spitz got on a champion hoodie and some Timberlands.
Looked like he about to stick somebody up.
I said he got jacked the way out the door.
That's a fair assessment.
Yeah.
I came out of a cab, but.
So what's been up with you, man?
On the grind, baby.
Just trying to stay relevant.
What happened to Aerie Spares?
Like, I told him before you walked in,
I was like, Aerie was on everything.
Me growing up, he was like one of those guys,
live movies, shows.
He was all over New York.
You find him in the club, comedy shows.
You didn't want to sacrifice the goat?
No, no, no, it ain't got nothing to do with him.
But I'm just curious, when you say what happened,
why you say what happened?
You're not as much as we used to.
He's saying you fell off, Aries.
I did not say I fell off.
That's what he's trying to say.
He's trying to say you fell off, Aries.
Nah, you know, it's funny to me.
I know that's not what he's trying to say, but you know, it's funny to me.
It ain't like cats don't say that.
You know, I read the Twitter.
I hear what people say.
But, you know, people lose perspective.
You know, if falling off means going to Abu Dhabi and doing one show for 80 grand,
you know, then you wish to fall off.
If falling off means traveling all around the country, you know, going to Europe, going to, you know, Australia, going to Africa, doing shows with a fan base, then yeah, you wish it was me.
You know what I'm saying?
You know, it's like I do my job.
You know, I eat for free, drink for free.
I travel damn near for free.
You know, go anywhere I want, get love, you know.
It's like being a woman.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Being famous for a dude is travel damn near for free. You know, go anywhere I want, get love, you know. It's like being a woman.
Being famous for a dude is like being a beautiful woman.
So people's perspective is hilarious
to me when they say fall off, because it's like,
look, if you could have my life
based on what you do, and it ain't
about trying to be braggadocious or nothing, but it's like,
look, I could make it one weekend, what you make it a year.
You know what I'm saying? So when people say,
yo, you falling off, it's like if I fell off, then where you at?
I always say I went to Caroline's to see Aries Spears one time,
and that was one of the funniest shows I have ever seen.
Thank you.
Thank you.
Thank you.
I appreciate it.
I followed all the time.
Thank you.
I would go see him in different spots.
But it's like the grind wasn't there as much.
It's like, you know, when people get too comfortable,
like, I ain't going to do that little show no more.
I think what he's trying to say, like,
why didn't more opportunities come from the Mad TV
and the movies? Well, first of all,
Mad TV was never
Saturday Night Live. I mean, I always
tell people, you know, there was one point in time
where we was beating them in the ratings,
but in the highest sense, I mean,
Saturday Night Live is the NBA.
Mad TV was like the CBA. You know what I mean?
It's like, I don't care how good we was.
I don't care how good anybody was on the show.
It's not Saturday Night Live.
So that had a lot to do with it.
And plus, you know what, man?
I got a little bit
of Paul Mooney in me.
I don't smile enough
for these white folks.
You know what I mean?
I don't...
You didn't sacrifice the goat.
Yeah, I don't smile enough
and I'm sometimes
very opinionated
and I don't bite my tongue
as much as I should.
And in show business,
when you black and you run your mouth,
there's consequences and repercussions.
What about your relationship with other comedians, too?
Listen, my relationship is cool.
People that don't know me, you know what I mean?
People that don't know me go, oh, he's a diva, he's arrogant.
They don't know me because I'm quiet.
I don't walk around cheesing all day, and I'm not in a rush to make comedy friends.
I started in this game alone.
I'm going to finish alone if that's the case.
I don't need to rub elbows with you and communicate with you and be friends with you.
And because of that, and because I'm aloof, people take that as arrogance.
And it ain't that.
Listen, Charlamagne, I've heard.
You know what it is.
People have said, yo, Charlamagne is this and that.
That's his rap.
And, you know, he liked to attack the guests and blah blah blah and the last
time I worked with you or dealt with you was when you was with Wendy Williams and
it's been that long so it's like you know people can say people grow man they
evolve and and when people don't know you they start running their mouth and
there's a perception of you you think times have changed as far as being able
to be the Paul Mooney type I guess being able to speak your mind because of social media?
You know what?
Not really.
You would think that it has, but not really.
And I'm trying to learn a little bit and hold back a little bit more
because I know some of the things I say can sometimes be off-putting
or shocking, but I'm trying to figure it out.
People think that me and Kevin Hart really had a beef.
There is no beef.
How are you going to beef with somebody that huge?
You know, I never had a beef.
I had an opinion.
What was your opinion?
Because people are mad at that.
You know, I was just simply saying that, you know,
it's almost like every comedian,
we always have the intention of when we come out with a new joke,
we want that joke to be a home run.
Out of the park, grand slam.
That's your intention, but it don't always work out like that.
Sometimes it do, sometimes it don't.
So if your intention is to be up here and you somewhere in here,
you got to work it and craft it until you get it to that point.
And sometimes all it takes is a word, a phrase, a physical movement,
a little something extra to take you from here to here.
And if somebody gives you the ingredient, whatever that is,
to go from here to here,
how do you claim genius?
Because if your bitch starts out like this,
knowing you wanted to be here, then you get it here
and go, yo, that's genius. It was brilliant.
Okay, but before it was brilliant,
where did you get that to take it to the top?
So basically you said he had writers.
I'm just saying, yeah, when you got somebody
that can help give you that last,
you make a gumbo and you go, something's missing.
Doesn't every comedian have a writer?
No, every comedian doesn't.
You might have writers for TV show or movie, but no, not every comic for stand-up.
What about a stand-up special on TV?
Same thing.
It's stand-up.
It's stand-up.
So many of the, if you look at a lot of comedy specials at the end of it, when you look at
the credits, it says written and produced by,
and nine times out of ten is one name.
Every nine and a year you might get somebody with a written by two people,
but usually it's one name, one author.
That's it.
This is my thing with comedians, right?
Like every comedian has to mention Kevin Hart in some way,
and it's never like a flattering thing, and I always wonder why.
Well, I've always started off immediately by going,
yo, Kevin Hart is so legit.
As a talent, the boy is legit.
You know what I mean?
So I ain't never said he wasn't funny.
The boy is the truth.
I'm just saying as far as stand-up goes,
it's real hard to come out with a banging hour that consistently.
And I understand, you know, he says I work hard and all that,
and I get that and I respect it.
But, again, if you got somebody telling you, hey, man,
that joke you just did, say this instead.
And that's the difference between one and ten.
But what's wrong with that, though?
I mean, even Richard Pryor had Paul Mooney.
Chris Rock had Neil Brennan.
Again, Chappelle had Neil Brennan on the Chappelle show.
Okay.
Not for stand-up.
Mooney helped Pryor with the stand-up and the sketches and stuff.
Okay.
And he's considered the GOAT.
What can you say?
Yes, Richard Pryor is the GOAT.
I'm just saying, to me, in my opinion, true greatness.
To be the greatest.
It's all you.
Maybe Kev's just that good.
Again, in one sentence.
As far as being able to
deliver an hour every year.
Written by himself? All him? Yeah, maybe.
Because you got to think about how much he's
on the road and how much he travels, all the different places
he goes. He's got a lot of material to draw from.
And a lot of that stuff is from his own life, too. Like his family,
his kids. Like he said, he doesn't really get into
politics and things like that too much.
He talks more about his family.
God bless him. God bless him.
God bless him.
It was my opinion.
You said you and Kev have no problems,
and he's launching his comic network.
Would you do something on his comic network?
He said specifically he would have you on.
Absolutely.
Listen, man, if the money right, I'm there.
And like I said, there never was any beef.
It's a shame now that you can't say something about somebody,
an opinion, and people
run with it like, you know, it's blasphemy.
You know what I think it is? Because you're a
respected comic also, and I guess
it holds more weight, anything holds more weight
when you say it than when somebody on Twitter says
something. Right. I think people just look for drama.
Alright, we got more with Aries Spears when we
come back now. He's kind of been blackballed
in the industry. We'll talk about it when we come
back. Don't go anywhere.
It's The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
The Breakfast Club.
That was Don't Mind Kent Jones.
Morning, everybody.
It's DJ MV, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God.
We are The Breakfast Club.
Now we have comedian from MADtv, Aerie Spears in the building.
Who do you consider a friend in this business as far as other comics
that you really would
kick it with,
you know,
have a phone call with,
go on vacation with?
You know,
Godfrey's my dude.
Corey Holcomb's my man.
Corey?
Yeah, yeah.
There's a few cats
who when I see them,
you know,
it's all love.
We pound it up.
We talk.
You know,
I've used them
in certain projects
I've done and vice versa.
But that term friend,
I don't take that lightly.
You know what I mean?
These comedy comrades that I know, you know, we are friends in the business,
but, you know, friends, friends help you bury a body.
You know what I mean?
These cats will tell on you.
You know what I mean?
So I, you know.
They'll put it in the stand-up.
Yeah, that's what I'm saying.
Like I've always, when I started stand-up, I was 14 years old
working the clubs in New York and Jersey.
So my mother was taking me around, and I couldn't hang out with the Bill Bellamy's and all the people I came up with.
So I was always in the corner, quiet.
So that had been my training, in a sense.
So once I got old enough to do it by myself, I was kind of like Nas.
I was like a loner.
I just quiet to myself in the corner.
I don't talk much until it's time to perform.
Now, you started a convo online about male-on-male rape sexual assault.
That was in context to...
Child support.
Child support, yeah.
Explain that more.
I don't think he said male-on-male.
No, no, it wasn't really male.
I said that men...
It wasn't man-on-man.
I said it was men getting raped,
so to speak.
Yes, it's not man-on-man rape.
I don't know why y'all just didn't let it go.
Why didn't you just let it go?
I almost let it go.
That's not what I meant.
It sounded weird to me.
Why didn't you just let it go?
It sounded weird to me.
I don't think you said man raped.
Yeah, he didn't say man or man raped.
Nah.
What was the exact tweet?
Since we're dealing with facts now.
Verbatim, I don't remember what the tweet was,
but I do remember the context of it.
It was something about child support.
You know, the way the women in the courts rape men financially is ridiculous.
And until men start banding together to say enough is enough.
But the problem is we don't want to make the movement because we stuck, you know, on that nana. So what do you think is fair when it comes to child support?
What's fair?
Yeah, what's fair?
It's what's realistic.
You know what I mean?
A kid should get what's necessary, not what's entitled based on how much you make. That's fair? Yeah, what's fair? It's what's realistic. You know what I mean? A kid should get what's necessary,
not what's entitled based on how much you
make. That's what the system does. The system
pays the woman based on what you make
instead of what's necessary.
You know what I mean? Stop screaming about that $80,000
you're making.
I read you pay $5,000 a month.
Oh, I pay more than that, bro. Jesus!
I got three, but two of them is where I pay the support.
Now, they say you swung a baseball bat at your baby mama.
All lies.
All lies.
You know, there's that great quote I love.
There's three sides to every story.
Yours, mine, and the truth.
When it went down, you know, she went to the cops and got a restraining order.
I never physically put my hands on her ever.
But TMZ got wind of it.
And next thing you know, I'm swinging at her with a bat.
You know, I'm coming after her with this.
I'm physically doing this.
Listen, man, my father used to beat my mother.
And I watched that as a kid, traumatic.
So I would never do that.
It wasn't even the case at all.
You mentioned that your father used to beat your mom.
Why do most comedians have such a dark past?
There's this perception of comics being happy and telling jokes on stage,
but in real life they they're like depressed.
You know what makes me miserable and depressed is this business.
Because it's not what it should be.
You know, I got into this thinking it was about your talent.
You did your thing, and the next thing, boom.
This stuff is so political.
It's so political.
It's so racist.
Like, this business is dirty.
But you were there.
You was on A Different World.
You did Mad TV.
You did so many specials.
Deaf Comedy Jam.
You were there.
I don't, you know what?
That might be easy to say from the outside looking in.
But I'm telling you, it's so many pitfalls and dirtiness to this.
It's unreal.
What happened?
Did they, like, did you invite you to an Illuminati meeting?
Or did you invite somebody, you in a room?
I'm going to give you an example.
Like, the girl
that does the mother
on Family Guy
Alex Bornstein
she was on Mad TV
she did Miss Swan
one of the most racist
C words
I've ever been around
really
like yeah
me and Debra
was in the makeup room
one day
and you know
me and Debra
like brother and sister
our chemistry was there
and one day
we just sitting around
waiting to shoot
so Alex just starts looking at her fingernails and she keeps rubbing her fingernails.
And Debra used to date Pat Kilbane, the white boy on the show.
So she goes, oh, my God, Pat, I got all this black dirt under my fingernails.
Like I was raped by N-word and I got the evidence to prove it.
So me and Debra took offense to that.
So, you know, we complained to the producers.
As you should.
So we complained to the producers. As you should. Right? So, yeah.
So we complained to the producers about it,
and it turned out the producers was like,
Aries and Debra making trouble.
And we got singled out for being troublemakers.
Wow. We was troublemakers for being insulted that somebody said that.
Right.
I mean, you know what I'm saying?
Like, how you blame the victim?
How you blame the rape?
You know what I mean?
And so it's like, And that's the kind of thing
Hollywood is. It's so
political and so racial. You gotta watch where you
step. You gotta watch what you say.
Because all of it is crazy.
At what point, there had to be at least one moment where you
knew, alright, they ain't
rocking with me. Like, was it something in a meeting?
Or somebody you're talking to?
To be honest, man, I felt
like that for the last couple years.
I truly believe to some extent, whether it's true or not,
or whether I don't have any actual evidence of it,
but to some degree I believe I'm blackballed, man.
What?
Just because there's a stigma.
Gotcha.
You know, my manager's even told me.
He goes, well, you know, people will go, yeah, he's talented,
but it ain't worth the trouble.
We heard he's this.
We heard he's that.
That's true, too.
People always say you have a bad attitude.
So I wonder, do you think,
is there anything that make you say it could be me?
Yeah, I should smile more.
I should interact.
I look like the Mahoosia Dean if I don't smile.
It looks serious.
Even if you smile in that hoodie,
I'm walking the other way.
Well, listen, man, I'm going to be honest.
I ain't going to lie.
I was slightly intimidated coming here because, again, perception.
From what I heard about Charlamagne and the way people say he is,
I didn't know if I'm going to come to the studio and he's going to try and test me.
That's terrible.
That's a terrible perception.
That's a terrible perception.
I've never been that way.
You've never heard that?
No, I hear that all the time, but I never do that to people.
Before you walked in, he said he wanted to make you cry today.
No, I'm just kidding.
All right, now, when we come back,
you and Magic Johnson got into a little beef on social media.
We'll talk about it.
Don't go anywhere.
It's The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
That was Encore Jay-Z.
Morning, everybody.
It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God.
We are The Breakfast Club.
We have comedian from MADtv, Aerie Spears, in the building.
Now, Yee?
You had an incident in the club where, like, a woman tried to sue you.
I remember when this happened.
Yeah, comics in New York.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
What happened?
You know, it's like five angry black women sitting right up front.
Wasn't really showing me a lot of love and respect on the show.
So, you know, I can only let that slide for so long before I got to attack it.
So I kind of messed with them.
Why you got to attack black women, Aries?
Because white women, would you have done that?
Absolutely not,
brother.
You know what, man? I just
had to get them because I was like, why y'all grilling so
hard? I'm working my ass off.
Ain't none of this funny to you. And I do that to anybody.
Like comics, if we perform in front of 300
people and 299 is laughing,
we focused on the one that's not.
So long story short, I kind of gave them the business a little bit.
I kind of did this bit where I was talking about how pretty the girls' breasts were.
And I said, baby, you got nice breasts, blah, blah, high five.
And when she went to high five me, I purposely went and I smacked her breasts.
And I high fived the breasts.
Right.
So towards the end, when the bill came, I said, yo, don't even worry about that.
I'm going to take care of that.
I got that.
I'm going to pay for it.
And the one girl went, yo, you going to pay.
You definitely going to pay.
So when that show was over, I'm out trying to sell my merch.
And the manager came and went, yo, she called the cops.
Wow.
It's sexual assault.
So they're going to come in here and arrest you.
So they cuffed me and took me out, and I went to jail that night.
So technically, by social media standards,
you're a rapist. No, that's not rape.
They would say you was a rapist. Yes, they would.
That's not sexual assault. You don't do that joke anymore, right?
No, I killed it
that night. I killed it that night.
What about Magic Johnson? You and Magic Johnson were back and forth?
Magic Johnson? Nah, nah, nah, nah.
I thought we did, but that was a fake account.
I thought we did. That was a fake account.
You were like, yes, Magic Johnson's a fan.
Because you know what, man? A lot of times
I see pictures of his son
on Twitter, and I'll
post it and joke about it.
So you're homophobic too? No, not at all.
Not at all. Dude, listen.
Wow. I'm not.
I'm not. It's just when, you know, you see
certain things as a comic,
you got to point it out.
So what do you say?
I want to get to that, but what do you say about Lil Magic?
He had on an outfit.
Well, basically, it was like a black see-through blouse,
and it wasn't buttoned up, but the nipple was out,
and it was a tiger skin dress, and the thigh meat was crumpled.
So I just joked about it.
Okay. dress and the thigh meat was crumpled. So I just joked about it.
Somebody through the magic fake account was like, as magic
going, oh, Yeri Spears is not funny, blah,
blah, blah. And I thought it was magic
so I joked back and said something about
dog, you got much bigger concerns you need to
worry about than me messing with your son.
So this thing's all in the Kool-Aid with no condoms.
Right, right, right. That's what I said.
I don't know if that's really been a concern of his these past few years.
It probably hasn't.
He's been beating HIV ass.
Right, right.
But, you know, come to find out it wasn't his account.
You played a gay character, though.
Yeah, but that's, I get paid to do a job.
Let's talk about that.
That's like, you know, this stigma about black men in dresses comedically.
I've never understood that.
I never understood that either. I never got it. That's comedy 101 you know, this stigma about black men in dresses comedically. I've never understood that. I never understood that.
I never got it.
That's comedy 101 in the comedy book.
Men in drag.
Shanayn A.
Shanayn A.
Wanda.
Wanda, hilarious.
Big Mama's House.
Eddie Murphy as the Klumps.
I never saw that as a demeaning thing, you know, so I never understood that.
Remember Men on Film?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
David Allen Graham.
That was funny.
I never looked at that in a game growing, yeah, yeah. That was funny.
I never looked at that in game growing up.
I just thought it was funny.
Listen, what you're doing for a role and a paycheck is much different when there's no cameras around and no money involved.
If it's the right role and the right money, you know what I'm saying?
Will I go full on bareback mountain?
Never.
You were kissing the brokeback mountain. No, brokeback mountain.
What did I say?
You said bareback.
Oh, wow.
Brokeback.
Please, gay men, wear condoms.
Yeah, yeah.
Yeah, I wouldn't go that far.
Now, there are men who have done, in the past, gay porn, but they don't consider themselves gay.
Well, of course they don't.
Criminals don't consider themselves criminals.
But don't you think that somebody could have done a gay act?
You're the most innocent.
Everybody in Shawshank is innocent.
We had a whole debate about this, though.
Like, you can do a gay act and not be gay.
Women, only women validate that.
Women and gays.
No straight man ever says, hey, man, you could commit a gay act and not be gay.
You know that, right?
Now, Key and Peele, because you talked about Mad TV only being like the farm league or whatever.
But Key and Peele went on to tremendous success. And it's funny because you, to me, was the face of that show more than Key and Peele, because you talked about MADtv only being like the farm league or whatever, but Key & Peele went on to tremendous success.
And it's funny because you, to me, was the face of that show more than Key & Peele.
Well, one, Key & Peele got on when the Titanic was sinking.
When the show was at the apex of its success and its popularity, they weren't on.
Once Will left, Mo left, Debra, and a lot of the people that helped define the show during that time period,
the Titanic was sinking.
The writing wasn't as strong.
The cast wasn't as strong.
And I think more their popularity came from their own sketch show,
the Key & Peele show, than it did MADtv.
And again, God bless them.
And again, that's another thing I caught flack for.
You said that Key & Peele weren't chosen by the black community.
Black people like to go, well, what's being black?
What, I got to talk with ghetto and slang and act ignorant?
It's the essence.
There's a vibe.
Black people have a natural cool, a natural swagger.
When a dog come in the room, smell another dog.
You know what I'm saying?
It's like brothers that are black on the outside, but you could tell, you smell something ain't right.
They ain't got that, something's missing in the gumbo.
I don't know if you articulate it well enough for people to understand, but I get exactly what you're saying when you say that. You know what I'm saying?
I understand exactly what you mean when you say that.
But I feel like this. They seem like people
I went to college with that are black.
You know what I'm saying? It's just a different type of...
Listen, Will Smith
is educated and is articulate
and is bright as
any congressman or president or scholar.
But he's a brother. But he's a brother.
But I feel like they're just ner scholar. But he's a brother. But he's a brother. But I feel like this is kind of nerdy.
But DMX is gutter, gully, razor in the mouth while he talk to you,
and he's a brother.
Now, they're two different kind of, you know what I'm saying,
one's the Huxtables, one is Goodtimes.
But they both legitimately black.
Ken Peel don't have a black core.
They don't.
Like, you know, even Kev Hall got a black core. Dave Chappelle have a black core. They don't. Like, you know, even Kevin Cargill got a black core.
Dave Chappelle had a black core.
Right, right.
Listen, I'm not saying just because you're a black dude with a white woman,
you're not black.
But most black dudes with white women don't tend to be in touch with who they are.
And the ones that are usually have white women that want to be niggas.
Nate Parker would disagree with you.
Right.
He made a movie about Nat Turner, and he has a white wife.
Well, making a movie and being who you really are is two different things.
We just talked about that.
I could make a movie being a semi-homosexual.
That don't mean I'm homosexual.
So just because you make a movie on racism don't mean you—
What is a semi-homosexual?
What is that?
We're going to leave it there.
What is a semi— You can to leave it there. What is this?
He's going to leave that there.
You just said he's all in a unite.
What is this?
Am I?
Yeah.
Just a tip.
You know what I mean, man.
Have you ever dated a white woman?
Yeah, absolutely.
Okay.
Yeah.
Listen, I like sex.
You know what I mean?
So when it comes to sex.
But you wouldn't marry one?
No.
No. No.
Straight Ugg boots and, you know, bare feet on the concrete after the club?
No.
No.
No, they're doing a Mad TV reunion special?
I heard that.
They did do it.
And as a matter of fact.
Are you on it?
Well, I was on that.
And then they also are doing some episodes where they're bringing some of the old cast
members back to do some episodes,
which I just did, and it just aired last week.
And I'll probably do a couple more before the season is out.
Now, Aries, you was one of the first people I remember doing impressions.
Yes, sir.
A lot of people have capitalized off that now.
Yes, sir.
They did crowds and stuff for the world.
Bobby Brown was a huge impression he did all the time.
You don't do them that much anymore?
I do.
I do kind of.
I'm just trying to revamp a little bit.
So I don't really like to do the old ones.
I try to, I'm trying to get some new ones in there.
You used to do Missy Elliott.
No, no, no.
Some of those on Mad TV was simply because I was black at the time.
We need a Missy Elliott.
We need a Missy Elliott.
They couldn't get a girl to play Missy?
Debra wasn't available.
Or she was playing Mariah Carey and I had to be the other chick.
You did Malcolm X too?
You was not Malcolm X.
I was extra.
I was extra. Can we get some? Yeah. You did Malcolm X too? You was in that Malcolm X. I was extra. I was extra.
Can we get some?
Yeah.
What you?
DMX?
LL?
JZ?
DMX.
Let's do DMX.
Yeah, dog.
What up?
What up?
Uh-huh.
Talk to me.
Envy.
You know what I mean?
You got me in the booth.
Talk to me.
You know what I mean?
LL.
Yo, what's up, baby?
It's Bananas, man.
Say how you gonna beat Charlamagne that.
It's crazy, man.
Yo, I like Charlamagne, man.
You know, he got a nice chocolate to him. You know, it's Bananas, man. Say how you gonna beat Charlamagne that? It's crazy, man. Yo, I like Charlamagne, man. You know, he got a nice chocolate to him.
You know, it's bananas, man.
It's like if you put him in the sun and I hug him,
he'll melt all over me, man.
Just be sexy, baby.
What about Bobby Brown?
Bobby was just, you know, cocaine on my nose and acting trippy.
There was really no impression there.
There you have it.
There you go.
The Breakfast Club.
Thank you.
The Breakfast Club. Thank you.
The Breakfast Club.
This is the Rumor Report with Angela Yee.
Rumor has it.
Rumor has it. On The Breakfast Club.
It's getting better.
It's getting better, Yee.
Taylor can't figure out what sound effects you want to use for Yee's rumor.
Put them all in.
Put them all in. Put them all in.
All right.
It's been four months since Views has come out, Drake's fourth studio album.
And guess how many he sold?
How many?
Three million units.
So he has triple platinum.
Yes.
Nice.
Congratulations to Drake.
Also, Take Care.
That album went four times platinum as well.
You know, they did adjust the rules earlier this year, so they are taking streaming into account.
So that's why Drake's album is now triple platinum
after only four months.
Is it like a million screams equals platinum?
No, I think more than that.
It's more?
Yeah, way more than that.
You need more than that.
Like 20 million, I thought, was platinum.
It's a crazy number.
Well, the song One Dance broke the UK chart
for the longest running number one
since legal downloads started counting towards chart position.
And he does have potentially an album with Kanye West on the way and a new mixtape with Gucci Mane potentially also on the way.
So we'll see what happens.
All right.
And speaking of Drake, he has the most nominations for the BET Hip Hop Awards. He got 14 nominations. That includes
Album of the Year, Best Live Performer,
Lyricist of the Year, Best Hip Hop Video,
and he got three in the Best Collabo,
Duo, or Group category.
So let's look at some of these nominations
for the BET Hip Hop Awards.
Cali got a lot of nominations too.
Shout out to Cali.
Future got 10
nominations.
So this is going to air October 4th, but they're actually filming in Atlanta September Shout out to Khaled. And Future. I'm surprised Future ain't getting a lot of nominations. Future got 10 nominations. Okay.
So this is going to air October 4th, but they actually film it in Atlanta September 17th.
Best DJ.
Khaled. DJ of the year.
Khaled.
Envy.
See who you think is going to win.
These are the people nominated.
Khaled.
DJ Envy.
DJ Drama.
DJ Esco.
DJ Khaled.
DJ Mustard.
And DJ Envy.
Oh, yeah.
And DJ Envy.
DJ Envy definitely has it.
Let me ask you a question.
Which one of those guys actually really DJs, though?
Envy DJs.
DJ Envy DJs about...
Envy ain't nominated.
Yes, I am nominated.
Oh, he is?
I can't tell what y'all playing tonight.
I don't know.
He kept saying his name over and over again.
I'm going to say this.
Don't say nothing.
I'm not being biased.
Oh, here you go.
Envy's the smallest DJ in that whole category.
But, he's the only
person I see DJ all the time.
Oh, yeah. Okay.
I don't know about the rest of them. I don't know if that's
a compliment or not. Envy's a DJ.
So, if he's DJ of the year,
Envy should actually win because he DJs.
The rest of them are busy putting out hit albums.
Yeah, exactly. They're producers. They're personalities.
They're getting a lot of money.
I get it.
Angelina, he's right.
I see what you're saying.
Okay, what's some other categories, G?
Best collabo.
DJ Khaled featuring Drake for free.
DJ Khaled featuring Jay-Z in Future. I got the keys.
Drake in Future.
Jumpman.
Drake featuring Wizkid and Kylo One Dance.
Fat Joe and Remy Ma featuring French and Infrared
all the way up.
All the way up.
How many artists in hip-hop?
There's only three, right?
Khaled, Drake, and Future, right?
How about best hip-hop video?
2 Chainz, Watch Out, Designer, Panda,
Khaled and Jay-Z and Future, I Got the Keys,
Drake, Hotline Bling, Fat Joe, Remy Ma,
French and Infrared all the way up,
Kanye and Rihanna, Famous.
2 Chainz.
2 Chainz video was the one with the big head?
Yeah.
That was the best video.
That was the best video.
What about album of the year
for hip hop?
Pablo.
I like the Life of Pablo.
Either the Life of Pablo
or Chance the Rapper,
Color and Book.
The Life of Pablo was nominated.
Chance the Rapper was not.
What?
Future, Dirty Sprite 2,
Fetty Wap, Drake, Views,
Dr. Dre, Compton, and Khaled.
I changed a lot.
I'm going with Kanye West, The Life of Pablo,
and I can't believe Chance the Rapper coloring book wasn't nominated.
No, it was not nominated.
He was actually nominated for Best Mixtape for Coloring Book.
Coloring Book's a mixtape.
I'm so confused about what's going on.
I'm not going to lie.
The whole mixtape album thing sometimes gets confusing.
Yeah, because it ain't on no tape.
It ain't nobody mixing.
Like, what are you talking?
It's not a mixtape.
I think Kanye.
Kanye's album grew on me.
I like Kanye's album.
I like Kanye's album from the beginning.
I like the life of Pablo.
I like Pablo's dope.
All right.
Well, anyway, that's the nomination.
So, like I told you guys, Drake got the most 14.
And best collaboration should be Fat Joe and Remy Ma.
Because that's actually a collaboration.
That's what I said, yeah.
Fat Joe and Remy Ma. Khaled records with artists collaboration. That's what I said, yeah. Khaled Records with artists and not collaborations.
Because Khaled's not rapping on them.
Now, this song was not nominated, but it's not a hip-hop song.
This is Countess Vaughn.
She actually did a song called Do You Love Him?
And this set Twitter afire yesterday.
Here's a little snippet of the song.
Don't walk away from me.
You gotta explain yourself
and why you're trying
to break up my family.
Do you love him?
Well, so do I.
Okay, all right.
Fart on that record.
Fart on that record.
What is that?
The only thing better
than the song is the video.
If you guys have not
had a chance
to see the video.
That's a real song?
Yes.
Who signed her?
And she's also on the show Hollywood Diva.
And guess who directed the video?
Lisa Wu, who's also on that show.
You remember her from Real Housewives of Atlanta.
Now she's on Hollywood Diva.
Oh, my goodness.
She's just scared me.
Oh, my goodness.
Look, Charlotte.
Oh, my God.
If you ever vote, you can see a little snippet of the video.
Now, if you watch the show and have seen this and follow them on social media,
you'll see Lisa Wu was defending herself for directing this video.
She said, please, haters, show me what you can pull off with no budget.
That's what I'm saying.
Nothing to do with no hate.
Play that one more time.
That's a little bit of it.
The first five seconds.
I don't want to hear the first five seconds.
And please, you've got to see the video.
Show the video on Revolt.
If you watch Revolt, put it back up for a second.
It's a lot of slow motion.
And for some reason, she has on a shower cap,
but her braids are not in the shower cap.
All right.
Okay.
That really bothers me.
If you're going to wear a shower cap,
you're here in the shower cap.
Don't walk away from me.
Okay, you can stop.
All right.
I just want to know what challenge is that.
Is that the So Gone Challenge, Ice Bucket Challenge,
Colin Kempcher Challenge?
That's got to be a challenge, right?
That's a horrible song challenge.
She didn't do that on her own, did she?
Like I told you before, Lisa Wu directed the video.
She did the song on her own.
There's a lot of slow motion in that video.
God bless Countess Vaughn, man.
I think she does a lot for...
For what?
Nothing.
All right, well, that is your rumor report.
I'm Angela Yee.
She's mentally challenged in some way, right?
Before it gets crazy.
No.
No, I'm sorry if she is. No, she's not. I thought she was. I'm sorry. What are y'all talking about? I thought shee. She's mentally challenged in some way, right? Before it gets crazy. No. I'm sorry if she is.
No, she's not.
I thought she was.
I was just like, I'm sorry.
What are y'all talking about?
I thought she was.
She's not?
I really thought she was.
That's why I said I think she does a lot for mentally challenged people.
If she is, I take it back.
I'm sorry.
When was she mentally challenged?
She's not?
No.
You sure?
I like this song, though.
Let me see.
You're making me Google this.
I don't know, man.
She has a skin infection that was caused by wigs. this. I don't know, man. She has a skin infection that was caused by wigs.
What?
I don't know, man.
I got me a...
She is not mentally challenged.
I don't know, man.
What is wrong with you guys?
I just want to make sure.
I never heard that.
I get a lot of the birds are chirping vibe from her.
I'm not going to lie.
I'm going to just choke.
I just threw up in my mouth.
I get a lot of that.
Just threw up in my mouth.
All right.
All right. Let's stop, guys,
before we get in trouble.
Shalame.
What?
Now you're going, what me?
Who are you giving your donkey to, man?
Back to back.
Hmm?
What's the guy's name?
Ryan Lochte?
The young man with the old face?
Yes, Ryan Lochte.
Looks like a dead president.
The one you gave donkey yesterday?
Yes.
Again?
He needs to come in front of congregation.
We'd like to have a word with him.
All right, this is the first.
I've never seen anybody get donkey of the day back to back.
Well, we'll get back to back.
No, we'll get to it
when we come back.
Wait, what's going on?
Just keep it locked.
Okay.
Breakfast Club, good morning.
It's time for Donkey of the Day.
Donkeys of the Day
at Charlemagne.
I'm a Democrat,
so being Donkey of the Day
is a little bit of a mix up.
So like a donkey.
Keyhole. Donkey of the day is a little bit of a mixed up. So like a donkey. Keyhole.
Donkey of the day.
The Breakfast Club, bitches.
Now, I've been called a lot in my 23 years, but donkey of the day is a new one.
All right.
First of all, salute to Tarheely and one who just informed me that it's not Countess Vaughn who's mentally challenged.
It's Lark Voorhees.
Now, donkey of the day for Friday, August 19th, for the second day in a
row, back-to-back, goes to Ryan Lochte.
Wow. Okay, Gunner, Bench,
Jack Conger, and Jimmy Feagin, the U.S.
swim team. I told you all yesterday they was lying
about being victims of armed robbery in Rio.
Don't feel like rehashing the whole
story, but they said they got robbed at gunpoint,
but yesterday we found out that, yes,
Ryan Lochte and the other three U.S.
Olympic swimmers lied.
No crime was committed against them.
And the only thing about this story that was true was the fact they were drunk.
Now, it took four days and the cooperation, meaning the snitching, OK, of Jack Conger and Gunnar Bench to bring down the Carter.
OK, now, one of the two aforementioned people specifically pointed at Ryan Lochte as the head of the CMB.
They said he was the one who created the lie.
And I mean, when you are the winner of a dozen medals,
including six golds in your Olympic career,
the rest of the squad will fall in line with your lie.
Now, it wasn't just a synchronized snitching of Jack Conger and Gunnar Benz
that brought down the Carter.
It was video footage that surfaced of their behavior at a gas station.
One of them tried to open the door of an outside bathroom.
It was locked. So then the swimmers came together like of them tried to open the door of an outside bathroom. It was locked.
So then the swimmers came together like the Avengers
and collectively broke the door down.
Now, even after breaking the door down,
they decided to pee outside.
Now, if they're doing all this together,
breaking the door down, peeing together,
drop one of Clue's bombs for them,
because this is the greatest synchronized U.S. swim team ever.
Like, they just move together effortlessly.
Now, security guards were called to the scene,
and the swimmers tried to make a smooth getaway in their cab,
but gas station employees held them until police came.
One of the security guards whipped out a gun because, hey, let's be real,
a group of drunk white men is dangerous, okay?
You've seen what Trump rallies look like.
And how volatile they get. Same difference here.
Now, the swimmers finally handed over $50 in cash to cover damages and they were allowed to go back to Rio.
The whole situation lasted 10 minutes.
Now, this story sounds nothing like the story Ryan Lochte and the crew initially told that they were robbed of their wallets at gunpoint in Rio de Janeiro as they rode home in a taxi cab.
It's a movie.
And they said the crooks got away with $400.
If the words don't add up, it's usually because the truth wasn't part of the equation, okay?
Guys, I'm going to tell you what I tell my H.O. daughter.
You make a mistake.
You get in some trouble.
We can get past that.
But you make the mistake worse, and you make trouble ten times worse when you lie your way out of it.
In fact, you can't lie your way out of it. Lies don't help you escape anything. The truth does. Lies just make a bad
situation worse. Okay. This situation was bad, but now it's worse because Brazilian police want
the U.S. swimmers to be charged with the false reporting of a crime. I was listening to a TED
talk on my way into work this morning about why people lie. And he said, you can only be lied to
if you agree to be lied to.
Lying is a cooperative act. It needs the
hearer to believe the problem.
With Ryan Lochte and the rest of the
U.S. swim team story, you know what the
problem was? Nobody believed
what we were hearing, okay?
Yesterday, Bob Costas, when he was discussing Ryan
Lochte's lie, he didn't say Ryan was lying.
He said that Ryan softened the story.
No, he didn't soften the story. He told a hard lie. It wasn't a Ryan was lying. He said that Ryan softened the story. No, he didn't soften the story.
He told a hard lie.
It wasn't a little white lie.
It was a grown white lie.
And you can't really believe, you know,
the words that come out of Ryan Lochte's mouth from now on, okay?
One lie is enough to question all truths.
And if you're friends or family with Ryan Lochte,
don't be upset that he lied to you.
Just be upset that from now on,
you can't believe anything that comes out of his mouth. Please give Ryan Lochte the biggest hee upset that he lied to you. Just be upset that from now on you can't believe
anything that comes
out of his mouth.
Please give Ryan Lochte
the biggest hee-haw, please.
Please.
All right.
Thank you.
Well, thank you
for that donkey today, sir.
Now, when we come back,
we have a new artist
on the scene.
She goes by the name
of Young M.A.
Okay, some people
may not have heard
of Young M.A.
outside of New York,
but that's why
this is an introduction, right?
That's right. She's from Brooklyn, New York, and that's why this is an introduction, right? That's right.
She's from Brooklyn, New York,
and she got a couple of records that's popping out there,
and we're going to get her on.
Big, big online.
Big online.
Huge online.
All right, so we'll talk to her when we come back.
Don't go anywhere.
It's The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
That was Drake and Riri.
Morning, everybody.
It's DJ MV, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God.
We are The Breakfast Club.
We got a special guest in the building.
Young M.A.
The other day, I was DJing a team party,
and the DJ shot the little man was DJing before me.
He played the instrumental of her record,
and these kids rapped the whole song from top to bottom.
Ooh!
Now, I'm hearing your name all through New York City, man.
I'm always interested in knowing, you know,
who young rappers like yourself were influenced from coming from New York City, man. I'm always interested in knowing, you know, who young rappers like yourself were influenced from
coming from New York.
50 Cent. That was my favorite rapper
of all time, man. Definitely when I was younger.
What got you rapping?
Because, I mean, you're a girl, so as a kid
I made... Oh, yeah. No girls, right?
Ever.
I'm offended already.
Can I finish what I'm saying?
Can I finish what I'm saying?
You know, usually females are into Barbie dolls and toys,
but you got tattoos.
What?
Wow.
Oh, my gosh.
Embiid, just stop.
I don't want you to bury yourself in that.
I have tattoos all on your neck and everything.
I wasn't into Barbie dolls.
I had Barbies.
I had Barbies, though.
I had Barbies, but what I used to do was cut their hair off
and make them into boys because my mom never bought me the Ken doll.
Cut their hair off, drew a mustache on them.
I'm that ass.
You got trans Barbies.
Did you cut the boobs
off and everything?
Nah,
I ain't know how to do that.
I just put a shirt on
and call it a day.
Why wouldn't you
buy you the Ken doll?
I don't know.
Black mothers
ain't think of Ken
and Barbie.
They just got the Barbie
and had to take that
and it was all black.
Was she a single mother?
Definitely.
That's why.
She didn't even know Ken came. There's no Ken why. She didn't even know they had a kid.
That's a fact.
Now, you played football.
Yeah.
Tackle football?
Yeah.
That wasn't strange?
No, not to me.
It was normal.
You put equipment on and hit everyone.
Equipment.
The boys hit you and everything.
Show the pass.
I'm going to sit back and watch him be just killing me.
I'm going to ask him.
This is good.
Go ahead. Ask him. What got you into football? And he's like, did you get your period? hit you and everything. This is good. I'm going to sit back and watch him. He's just killing me. I'm going to ask him. This is good. Go ahead.
Ask him.
What got you into football?
And be like, did you get your period?
How did you get your period?
Yeah.
If I have a daughter and if my daughter asked me to play football,
I don't think I would be like, all right, come on.
We're going to put this equipment on and go play.
Being around the boys, everybody playing football,
we all playing football.
And they was just like, yo, you should get on the team.
Because all my friends, they was playing football. They all playing football. And they was just like, yo, you should get on the team. Because all my friends, they was playing football.
They was on the team.
I was the only one that didn't get on the team.
I thought, you know, I'm a girl.
I can't get on the team.
So we made it happen.
And I was the first girl on the football team.
Oh, hold on.
You actually played organized.
That's what I'm trying to tell you.
I thought you just made it discreet.
No, I said equipment on and everything.
Oh, wow.
So you actually in the NFL.
No, not the NFL.
But you were like with JV or...
Yeah, I was middle.
What's that called?
Minus.
I was a minor.
What position you played?
Running back.
I wanted to play that.
They put me as right receiver.
I mean, I could throw a football too.
I wanted to be quarterback.
I wanted to be anything
and they can put me in that position.
See, so Envy's saying
he wouldn't let his daughter do that
because it feels dangerous.
Yeah, it feels dangerous as hell.
My little baby girl.
You ever hurt anybody?
I even got into a fight with one of my homeboys from tackling him too hard.
He got upset.
I guess he was a little embarrassed.
No, I'm not.
He tried to get up and fight me.
You know what I mean?
What?
Because I popped him in front of everybody.
Like, boom, hit him.
Everybody from the building is yelling like, oh!
So he felt some type of way.
He was like, damn, push me.
And then we just started fighting.
But you seemed like the type of woman that was never, like,
they never looked at you as a female.
They accepted you as one of the dudes.
Like, I saw that.
Yeah, basically.
Yeah.
So it probably wasn't that embarrassing.
We got to see this picture.
I got a picture.
I want to see this football.
I was like 10 years old.
Wow.
That's how you cast a picture.
Let me see.
Sometimes I question why I was born this way.
I never wanted to wear skirts or shoes, makeup, nails, dresses,
even wear my hair a certain way.
I always wanted to wear jeans and sneakers, stud earrings,
hand a ponytail and play with the boys.
I never wanted to be a cheerleader.
I wanted to play football.
Is this you saying this, Charlie?
Wow.
Are you really reading that?
Do you know how many young age that you like girls at a young age?
It was like first grade.
First grade?
Yeah.
I thought I was weird, though.
You know what I mean?
I thought I was the only one In the world that felt like that
Really
So I never said nothing
For years to come
Years to come
I can't tell
You seem like a veteran
That was the only truth
It's crazy because
I used to act so much
Like a boy
That people used to be like
You're
Like you gay
Like why you
Like stop denying it
You're gay
Like it's obvious
You know what I mean
I still
You had boyfriends before
Yeah I had boyfriends before
You had sex before No no Yeah, I had boyfriends before.
You had sex before.
No, no, no, no, no.
Say, hey, hey.
Wait, whoa.
Wow.
Nah, I never did.
Really?
I swear on my dead brother.
But you're a real virgin.
Yeah.
You got a lot of lesbians that had some penis.
Nah, kids and all that.
Yeah, but I never did.
Wow.
What did your mom say?
Did she knew early on clearly also?
Yeah, my mom been knew. She used to try to get me to say it.
She went and forced it, but she would be like,
if you like girls, you can always tell me.
I used to be like, nah, ma.
Why you keep saying that?
Nah.
You know what I mean?
She really knew when I went to gay pride one day.
Like, come on now.
I'm like, ma, everybody goes to gay pride.
You know what I mean?
But she knew.
And I used to be scared to tell my moms because I didn't know. I knew my moms wasn't that type of mother to be like, oh, I don't like you, you know what I mean? But she knew. And I used to be scared to tell my moms because I didn't know.
I knew my moms wasn't that type of mother to be like, oh, I don't like you, you know what I mean?
I'm going to, you know, just ignore you, whatever, whatever.
She didn't.
You cannot know and be okay with it, but then when you know, it could change, you know what I mean, your input on it.
Did you ever take your Barbies and, like, put the Barbie's head in between the other Barbie's legs?
Yeah, I used to make them do stuff.
Yeah.
I think we all did as kids, though.
Yeah, all girls did, because I had a Barbie and a Ken.
Yeah, you can't find on front about that.
Yeah, I used to.
What got you rapping?
What got you into writing?
I don't know.
One day, I just started writing rhymes in my room and playing with it and pause.
Playing with what?
Young and mad.
I knew you was ready.
What were you playing with?
Yeah.
But now, once I started listening to 50 Cent,
that's when I really was like, oh, no, I want to be a rapper.
You write your own rhymes?
Yeah, absolutely.
Was it hard for you to get signed since you're not your typical female artist?
I'm not signed.
Well, I should say for people to hear your music, to get on.
Because your records are popping out there.
I've been doing music for like the past few years
where I was originally like a little more feminine,
you know what I mean, with the music.
And this is what I was told to be, you know what I mean?
I couldn't come out aggressive.
I couldn't come out like, you know what I mean,
being who I am today.
Did they try to tell you to conceal it?
Like don't tell people you're a lesbian?
It was like be a lesbian and say you like guys too.
You know what I mean?
It was like, do both.
That's whack.
It was like points where they'd be like, you know,
there's going to be times where you might have to throw on a dress.
And at that time, don't get me wrong, I thought that's what it was.
Like, I just was like, okay.
You know what I mean?
But part of me was like, I don't think I'm going to do this.
Just when I started to be in the streets more and then it was just like,
I was just going to leave music alone.
Like, forget it.
It just kept coming back to me.
You know what they say, if you let something go, it's going to come back.
Music kept coming back to me.
People kept hitting me like, yo, you don't do music no more?
And I just kept putting out music.
And I had to get a little more aggressive on the tracks.
I'm like, I don't think they hear me.
Like, this is what I do.
Like, this is what I've been doing for a long time.
This ain't new. Did you ever question why you
didn't see more LGBT in hip-hop?
See, I never look at it like that. I never
look at LGBT
when I do music.
I don't stick in that box.
You just do music. I just do music.
We know you don't stick in the box or get anything stuck
in your box, young MA.
Now, let's get
into some young ma joints side if you haven't heard her music let's get into two records that's
popping out there right now it's the breakfast club good morning yeah they hate but they broke
and when it's time to pop they have no show yeah i'm pretty but i'm local
the loud got me moving slow more there was a a couple of young M.A. joints that's heating up the streets right now.
Morning, everybody.
It's DJ MV, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God.
We are The Breakfast Club.
Young M.A.'s in the building.
You're also probably fortunate you didn't end up on Empire.
Oh, yeah.
You're supposed to be on Empire?
Yeah.
You look like one of Lucious' kids.
I can see that.
You know, it's crazy.
I wasn't even going to be his kid on the show.
I was going to be the girl. Free to get? Yeah. can see that. You know, it's crazy. I wasn't even going to be his kid on the show.
I was going to be the girl.
Pretty Gats.
Yeah, yeah.
But the original
name was Betty Bars.
They wrote the script
for me.
Wow.
Yeah, it was based off me.
Who'd you meet?
Who'd you know over there?
I met Lee Daniels
face to face.
At a pride parade?
No.
Yeah, while I'm serious
though, I'm like,
no.
I'm thinking he about to say something.
I was being serious.
I don't know what you're saying.
I was being serious.
You met him, go ahead.
How did you meet Lee Daniels?
I was in Swiss Beat's office, and my manager had low-key set something up
because I already had turned it down before I met Lee Daniels.
I denied it.
I was like, nah, I don't want to be on it.
I'm good.
I'm going to tell you why.
And we wound up meeting with Swiss Beat's in his office,
and here comes walking in Lee Daniels.
I didn't really know who he was, you know what I mean, at the time.
I just was like.
He was this fabulous man that just walked in.
Yeah, he was real fabulous when he walked in.
You know what I mean?
You could tell he got a demeanor about him.
He pulls out the script.
He says, let's go.
I'm going to see where Lee, you know what I mean?
So I remember I wasn't doing too good or whatever,
so Swiss Beats brung me out to his balcony and was like, yo, I'm going to see where it leads, you know what I mean? So I remember I wasn't doing too good or whatever,
so Swiss Beats brung me out to his balcony and was like,
yo, just give him you.
Don't worry about it being on a show or feeling like it's a script and you got to read it from the script.
He was like, just be yourself.
So I came back out, gave him me, and he loved it.
But I still wasn't really with it because I knew Empire was going to put me
in a position where I'm known from Empire as this character.
And I'm not known from Young and May, from Brooklyn building on my music.
You'd have been Betty Bars.
I would have been Betty Bars.
Everybody would have been like right now.
Y'all would have called me up.
We got Betty Bars on the show.
Yeah, because Drew, Frida Gass.
It's always Frida Gass.
And she cool as hell.
But I do know her.
I just can't remember her real name right now.
I'm trying to think of it. But I know her more.
Breezy, right?
Yeah, you know her, but it's a lot of other people that know her as.
But I will say, and then I heard, but I don't know what her situation is,
but I know they make you sign a contract,
and it might have something to do with your music also.
I ain't want to get too deep in that, but that was a big reason why I did it.
No, because when Quincy was up here, he was saying that his father, Diddy,
would not let him do it.
Thank God for my lawyer.
The contracts just put the icing on the cake.
Right.
Now, how does a young artist build an online buzz?
Because I would assume your career really popped off because of the internet.
Right, right. Is there a science to it?
Stay consistent.
Mm-hmm.
And, you know what I mean?
They'll eventually wake up.
You got to be nice.
You know what I mean?
You can't be trash, of course.
But just be consistent, man.
How long did it take for Uwe to... Not that long. That's what's crazy. Yeah, that's quick. up gotta be nice you know i mean you can't be trash of course but just be consistent man how
long did it take for uda um not that long that's what's crazy yeah that's quick okay video for it

you don't want to know man you don't want to know. A strap-on. See, I never understood it.
That's like getting a tattoo on a fake arm.
Like, why would you...
That's like getting a tattoo on a fake arm.
On a fake arm.
Like, it's a strap-on.
I'll bring a couple girls here one day,
and they'll explain to you what that means.
I don't want to know.
How does it give you pleasure?
That's none of your business.
It's my business.
That's between me and the girls, man.
You don't have to know about that.
You shouldn't even want to know about what a d*** does, buddy.
You're wilding, man.
You might want to know.
Right.
Jalame had a d***, though.
It was in the studio for quite some time.
Wow.
Do I look like I have a d***, though?
Yes.
The way you talking right now, I don't know.
I'm a dindoo when it comes to dill.
There's a type of lesbian that doesn't want any pleasure or doesn't want a female touching them.
Is that?
Okay.
No, I'm serious.
I don't know what they're talking about.
Now, what question was dumb?
I asked somebody and they said there's a female lesbian that doesn't want them touching their female parts.
Like, you don't want a girl touching them.
A semi-lesbian.
I mean, like...
I'm trying to get
schooled here
and you guys are joking.
They like to do things to you,
but they don't like to be touched.
They don't want their female
only to touch.
I had somebody on lip service
that was, uh, yeah.
See?
It's not odd.
Younger man ain't got time
for them type of girls.
Listen, man.
Listen.
Y'all want to know
too much about my sex life Man
She talk about it
In the music
Right
Just listen to the music
But that's what I like though
I like the fact that
Your sexuality
Is not overshadowing
Your music
Right
People is like
Young M.A.'s dope
Oh yeah absolutely
Now would you sign
To a major or not
Yeah
You know what I mean
It's not totally
Out of the equation
I've been singing
With mad labels
Like big dogs
For the past two weeks now.
I'm just hearing everybody out
and just trying to make,
choose my decision wisely.
I just don't want them
to try to change you.
I don't want them
to be on some old school
like telling you
you gotta dress like this.
Come on, man.
I got past that point already.
Like, I was in that position
in my life at one point,
you know what I mean,
where it was like
you might have to do this
or sound like this or talk about this, you know what I mean? When it was like, you might have to do this or sound like this
or talk about this,
you know what I mean?
When I got to a point
where I was just like,
I don't care,
hey, I'm going to be gay,
I'm going to talk about,
you know what I mean,
I just got to that point.
You can dictate what you want now
because what you have going on
is working.
I established.
If you on board
with what I'm doing
and my movement.
Yeah, that's it.
If you can't, exactly.
What's your ink mean?
When did you start getting ink?
When did you start
falling in love with the tats?
My first tat was R.L.P. Kenneth, that's my brother. What's your ink mean? When did you start getting ink? When did you start falling in love with the tats? My first tat was R.L.P.
Kenneth.
That's my brother.
That's your older brother or younger brother?
Yeah, he was my older brother.
Okay.
And then I just made this whole arm about him.
How did he influence you?
He was the reason why I played football.
I was a tomboy playing basketball.
He probably was the reason why I like girls.
The biggest influence in my life.
So when he died, it was like a big rip, you know what I mean, from my chest.
And I just, you know, right now, I just make sure I do it in his memory.
Like, this is why I go so hard, and this is why nobody can change my mind
on certain, because I'm stuck with, you know, his memory in my mind.
That's your only sibling?
No, I have a little sister, too, and I have a brother on my father's side.
But he was kind of the guy that you probably could trust the most.
Did you have trust issues after that?
Like, just trusting me?
Yeah, absolutely.
I had a lot of trust issues once I found out about that situation.
I was already not really a trusty type person.
But when he died from that situation, I just really got on some walls up.
You know what I mean?
We appreciate you joining us.
No doubt. Yeah, we're very excited to watch as you progress. I appreciate it. One of my I mean? So. Well, we appreciate you joining us. No doubt.

That's just an aggressive way of saying I don't want no problems, okay?
He does not want the colon cancer challenge.
That's what I heard.
That's what I just heard. That is some threat to say
to somebody, by the way. If somebody said
that to you. First of all, drop
one of Clue's bombs for the god Ray J
for starting this anal
assassination out here in these streets, alright?
Anybody have booty goons before Ray Jizzle?
That's really scary. Okay.
If somebody threatens to do that, because what if they do it?
That's crazy.
Boy, you got to do a lot to just stick your finger up my butt.
I mean, I just don't see how that happens in the street.
You're just going to just stick your finger up my butt.
You have to do a lot.

Which one?
Are you starting rumors over here?
I'm just asking a question.
Look at her Instagram.
When's the last time
we seen her Instagram?
She ain't posted in a long time
on the ground.
The last thing she posted
was that song about her and Khaled. She ain't tweeted. No, 4th of July was the last time we seen her on Instagram? She ain't posted in a long time on Instagram. The last thing she posted was that song about her and Khaled.
No, 4th of July was the last time she posted.
That's really a long time ago.
And she ain't tweeted in about 20 days.
Has anybody seen Nicki?
All right, Nene Leakes is going through some tax issues.
She was hit with a tax lien.
They said she owes $830,000.
She can't buy no Bentley truck right now.
And back taxes, so they can freeze her assets if she doesn't pay up.
Now, she did go on Instagram, and she said,
Running out the hotel to the IRS office.
Y'all know I ain't got no jobs.
Let me borrow $20.
And she said it was just an oversight.
She put hashtag oversight.
All right.
Y'all keep just oversighting the IRS.
You don't forget to give the IRS their money, okay?
Especially when it's $800,000K or whatever it was.
It was a big number.
$830,000.
