that Bronx apartment fire tragedy. Nineteen people have died from that,

(05:02):
sixty three people were injured by severe smoke inhalation, and
thirty two people were sent to five hospitals and the
Bronx in life threatening condition condition. What they are saying is,
according to early indications, it all started with a malfunctioning
electric space heater. They're saying they believe that was the
source of the fire, which started shortly before eleven am.

(05:23):
And they said the smoke spread throughout the building. That's
what caused a tremendous loss of life and other people
fighting for their lives right now in hospitals all over
the brons a portable electric heater. Here is the Mayor
Eric Adams speaking on what happened. This is truly a tragedy,
not only for the bron This is going to be
one of the roset fires. We know that we have

(05:44):
nineteen people who have confirmed that as well as several
others are in critical condition and over sixty three people
were injured in this fire, and then the loss of
residency people have to displace. This is really a hopific
day for us. But I want to commend to firefighters

(06:07):
and those who really put their public safety on the
light on the line by going in horrible Imagine imagine
celebrating the holidays a couple of weeks ago, making all
these plans for the new year, all these New Year resolutions,
and this is how the year starts. So appreciate you
following up and letting everybody know what they can do
if they want to help and donate. Heart is working

(06:30):
with the mayor's office to figure out how we can
be of any type of benefit at all. Okay, I
see that here when the firefighters scene, they weren't enough firefighters.
I guess because everything that's going on right now and
some of the man dates and people out because of COVID,
that they weren't enough firefighters to get people out, which
is sad. Appreciate your life. People don't take a day
for granted. Man, nine kids aren't going to get an

(06:51):
opportunity to grow up, So embrace, embrace it. Take a
deep breath for everybody who can't. And we do want

Oscar for Best the Best Actor Oscar. He was ninety
four years old, and his press secretary for the Prime

(07:13):
Minister of the Bahamas actually confirmed that he died on
Thursday evening. And so here he is getting his Lifetime
Achievement award. I arrived in Hollywood at the age of
twenty two in a time different than today's, and in
fact might never have been set in motion were there
not an untold number of courageous, unselfish choices made by

(07:37):
a handful of visionary American filmmakers, and I benefited from
their effort. The industry benefited from their effort. He did
win that Oscar in nineteen sixty three four Lilies of
the Field, and we also know him for guests Who's

The EED has packed every single night. That's good. I
don't think it's good. Like two hundred people per night.
Half of them I have to see for spect purposes,
and then half of that is for children who want
to kill themselves. But the reason I say that's good
is because people are actually getting the help that they need.

(10:35):
At least you're providing help to people. I'm glad that
people are going to get more mental health services. Well yeah,
the mental aspect, that's great, you know, but it is
kind of dreaming on the ev that they're coming for,
like stuff like a call for a sore throat, and
it's like causing a huge fact up. You have like
hospital beds in the hallway. It's insane. Yeah, I think

some exciting news for Rihanna. She posted on Instagram twenty

(18:59):
twenty two Become and in Hot. We're about to bring

(19:21):
Big fenty Okay, and by the way, Savage Fancy was
valued at one billion dollars. Love it, so, you know,
one of her ventures, especially if they if they're if
they're more of an experience. I mean, it's gonna be
an experience just because it's Rihanna's spot. You know, people
are gonna like to go there. But if they really
make it like an experience when you go in there,
oh they're gonna kill yeah, because just think about it,

(19:43):
the real place that people go to all the time
because it's not like that many options when you want
to get underwear. It's Victoria's secret because you can find
them places and just walk in, get what you need
and get out. But this is what we need. And
I like the representation that she has when it comes
to the models and everything, all different sizes and shapes
and colors and all of that. So that's dope all right. Now.
Antonio Brown has been making the rounds doing his interviews

(20:06):
after his departure from the Bucks, and on Friday he
did the Full Send podcast and he had some things
to say about Tom Brady. These guys called me to
win a super Bowl after a suspension. I'd come and
help him do that. If Tom Brady's my boy, why
am I playing for an earnest salary? Right? You're my
boy though? Right? Who's burning me over there? Let's be real, right?
But no, no, no, it's no, let's not not be right.

(20:28):
Let's be honest real. Who is the best guy over there?
You guys know football Brady can't do so, but you
guys are gonna make it seem like he's just his
horror guy. Bro. We're all humans, Bro, we all depending
on someone else to do the job. Can we answer
the first question? You're making an earnest salary because the
team doesn't trust you. Abbe like like sadly, Abe put

(20:49):
himself in a position where you know, at the time,
you know, teams were thinking low risk, Kyrie Ward, they
were taking a risk. That's why you got an earnest salary.
I don't know if this is right, but they're saying
he got a two million dollars signing bonus. Then he
gets a nine hundred and sixteen thousand base salary, and
then a roster bonus of three seventy So they saying
this salary was three point one million dollars. Yeah, but
the receiver of his caliber without the trouble makes way

(21:13):
more than that. That's just a fact. Okay. Yeah. Well,
also on the folks and podcast, he responded kind of
to Asian Doll. Asian Dall had posted what's up Antonio Brown,
take me out to dinner? And then she put like
a laughing emoji after that, and they asked about that.
You know some girls, oh here you go. Oh I'm
not going to here families right, No saying saying some

(21:36):
girl here whatever. I don't know about no dolls. Can
can we see what she looks like Asian Doll? No, No,
we're not putting her up. I'm not trying to. I
just want to see. In my segment with no girls
right now, I'm not I'm not even saying you ladies,
I'm taking I'm relax. I'm on reserve right now. I

(21:58):
got a lot more things than woman right now. So
let's get that clear. Now, my defamous you've seen it
or naw Asian do posted me and Ab talk all
the time. The tweet when I asked for dinner was
clearly a joke. I'm very beautiful and attractive. I can
never be embarrassed. I literally be trolling. And so it

(22:19):
seems that they are friends because they then posted a
series of lives that he was in the live comments
joking around with her too. Aby made choices, you know,
and he made a choice. As long as you can
live with the consequences of your choices, that's on you
all right now. Also, during an episode of the tapped
in Daily Chat, That's what kas and asking the cole

Forty nine has beat the Rams and the Raiders beat
the Charges. Now, don't forget to say that the Giants
beat themselves all season. I think that's very important for
you to know as a New York Giants I think

(26:19):
they know that. I mean, we're on night quarterback number four,
so you know, it happens. It beats like that sometimes,
all right, Now, Clay Thompson, he returned after damn two
years plus and he did his thing last night. He
scored seventeen minutes, seventeen points in nineteen minutes, seven to
eighteen shooting, and he dunked on somebody hard. And he
actually spoke after the game. And I'm just so grateful

(26:40):
to beat out here in the love I received, free
game and the video tributes. It was special. Man. It's
the night I will never forget. And it lived up
to all the hype. But I'm just very grateful for
our fan base. It's incredible. It was an emotional night
and I'm just I did not know I was gonna
dunk on somebody first, ye talk to it, so all
right for me? Yeah, man, I pray that brother stays healthy.

(27:01):
I don't I don't want him to get injured anymore.
Stephan Claire, you know one of those duos that you
really route for, regardless of how you feel about them.
You appreciate seeing them and play, so I want to
see them out there together. Like those those back to
back injuries were tough to watch those. Salut to Claytoms. Yeah,
he looked good last night. He didn't look like it
was his leg was tender. He was he was pivoted
and he was dunk and he was moving. It wasn't
like he was like being careful with it. He was

(27:23):
full steam ahead. So congratulation. Golden State Wards preseason picked
to win the NBA Championship. I'm not no need to
change that one, all right? Who else? What else we
got you? While the rest in piece to Bob Saggett.
He passed away. He was at the RITZ Carlton, Orlando,
and his family confirmed and a statement to CNN, we

(27:45):
are devastated to confirm that our beloved Bob passed away today.
He was everything to us and we want you to
know how much he loved his fans, performing live and
bringing people from all walks of life together with laughter.
Though he asked for privacy at this time, he invite
you to join us and remembering the love and laughter
that Bob brought to the world. He was best known
by audiences as Danny Tanner on the sitcom Full House

(28:07):
The Wholesome Patriarch, and he was They said, right now,
there's no signs of foul play or drug use in
the case. According to the sheriff's statement. He was in
Florida as part of his comedy tour, and according to
Bob Saget, he talked to Jake Tapper last year in
an interview and he said Full House was an accident.
He said, I got fired on CBS and was asked

(28:27):
to be in Full House, and that actually ended up
running for eight seasons, lived on in syndication, and then
Netflix picked off picked up a spinoff in twenty sixteen,
Fuller House. Then he also did CBS is How I
Met Your Mother, And of course you know him from
America's Funniest Home Videos as well. Yeah, I need to
know the calls it deaf immediately, Like when I hear

(28:48):
stories like that, I need to know why for my
anxiety sake, because I don't want to think that someone
just drops dead at sixty five just because I need
to know something. Okay, Well, they are still investigating that,
all right, and a researcher in Cyprus has discovered a
new strain of coronavirus and that combines the delta and
omicron variants. So they're calling that delta cron right now,

(29:10):
and so far they found twenty five cases of the virus.
It's still too early to tell whether there are more
cases or what impacts it could have, but right now
they're also saying that young children hospitalized with COVID nineteen
has hit a record high according to the CDC, they
said about children still have the lowest rate of hospitalization
of any group. Pediatric hospitalizations are at the highest rate

(29:31):
compared to any prior point in the pandemic. Sadly, we
are seeing the rates of hospitalization increasing for children zero
to four, children who are not yet currently available for
a vaccination. What's the point of telling us about What's
it called always a delta cron? What's the point of
telling us that? Like why? Like they can't be any
other reason to tell us that other than the cause fear, Like,

(29:53):
what's the point? I mean, I don't know. I remember
when omicron, when they first found those cases, it was
just it starts off really small, very few, and then
it spread pretty quickly. So I guess they're just keeping
a check. How many variants are there right now? I
don't know more than the Marvel universe. I'll tell you
that full five that I can think of, Delta delta cron. Mom,

(30:19):
there you go. You know what I'm trying to say.
With the big old mcron, I feel like there was more.
I HU who knows. I feel like there's so many,
so I don't know. I don't even know how many.
We just keep on hearing about different ones. But anyway,
that is just feel like fear mongering. I feel like
they're constantly just trying to stir up fearing people, like
tell me when it's a problem, it's already a problem,

(30:44):
which variants are circulating, because that's how they determine how
they do the vaccines, because I guess different ones are
better for other ones. Because I was reading what they
were saying about amicron and vaccinations and how effective it
is and booster shots, so I guess they have to
also adapt the vaccines to fit what type of variant

(31:06):
it is, so it's different vaccines. At this point, I
thought it was like, I'm confusing. I think some of them,
some of them are more effective, you know how they'll
be like what with the Omicron variant. This one's more
effective against it. So I think part of it is
you know and also knowing what your symptoms are because
I know what Omicron is saying. It starts off with
the sword throat or a scratchy throat, and that's how
it starts. So sometimes with most of them know, I'll

(31:30):
tell you one thing, and I know, they said, but
I know they said with I know they said with Omicron,
people don't typically lose their sense of taste and smell.
That's not true. My wife lost hers. And then I've
heard and I've heard other people. We don't know. I
don't know which ones we have. They don't tell it.
They don't tell you for the most part, so you
don't even know. Listen. The CDC director was on CNN
this weekend and she said she got to work on

(31:51):
her messaging. She said, they know could they confuse in people?
So if the people that are end the position of power,
that are supposed to be doing this every day are
admitting they need to work on the messaging and they
know how they confusing people, what do you think the
rest of us doing by having these conversations confusing? I
don't know what the hell is going on no more?
All right, Well look I'm trying to keep up to it.
It's changing every single day, so we shall see. And

(32:14):
that is your front page news. All right, thank you,
miss ye. Now when we come back, rest in peace
to James and two May he passed away. Condolences to
his family. Of course. He stopped through in twenty seventeen
and we got a chance to talk with him. We
spoke to him about his music career, we spoke to
him about politics, and we're gonna get that back home
when we come back, all right, so don't move. It's
the Breakfast Club. Good morning, the Breakfast Club Morning. Everybody

(32:40):
is cej Envy Angela yee, Charlemagne the guy. We are
the Breakfast Club. We have to send up a rest
in peace to James M. Two May, and of course
condolences to his family and friends. In twenty seventeen, he
stopped by the Breakfast Club and we talked about a
lot of his music career, politics, and we're gonna get
that back on right now, it's the Breakfast Club Morning,
and you need to tell them some of the songs

(33:01):
that you're behind. So they don't know exactly who who
you are, um well, you know, as a writer and
a producer of other artists. I did, Uh, Stephanie Mills,
you know how to love me? What you're gonna do
with my loving? Okay? Uh never knew love Bert the
Flat Close. I get to you back together again with
Hun Donnie half Away my own band. Uh Juicy Fruit
Juicy yeah, and you me and he and several others.

(33:25):
You know. I've been in the game, yes, and always
says that Juicy Fruit put him through college. Yeah, and
assist the whole family. Yeah, but we were Juicy Food.
I always say, it's interesting. I consider that one of
the grandparents a hip hop you know. And once Biggie
did it, I have to give credit to Puffy too.
I remember the first day I was met Puffy. I

(33:48):
was scoring a show called New York Undercover. I was
doing all the music for that. You know sometimes you know,
I don't assume, you know, and Uh, Puff came in said, oh,
I got this artist tunes? How much you me? And
he says, Biggie and me, Buddy man. Man. We hugged
and man it was sweet, beautiful man. And one of
the things that said about Puff. We sat down and

(34:09):
worked out a page and a half, you know, and
that was it. You get a dollar. It was the
best deal we ever cut. I haven't. Everybody else would
be back and forth, you know. No, no puff was
sprayed up. And I'm not saying that just because I'm
gonna be revoked without the biggest sample of that record
so far. Um, it was the first and it was
a sample that put us into the next generation. It's

(34:30):
been like seventy samples of that. Yeah. I didn't ask
you how many people have sampled that song? Well, yeah, yeah,
more than enough, you know what I mean. But Skeia
Coles version. I thought it was really good? Uh was it?
Let it go? I like that? How do you pick
the people who sample was your music? Do you want
to hear the song first? You know, they picked the
song and then you know they asked for clearance, you know,

(34:50):
And no, we just got something that just came out
with uh Chris Brown and uh Kelly something called Juicy Booty.
Do you mind? Do you pick? Do you mind about clarences?
Or it's just a matter if the splits are right.
But the splits, you know, I mean, thatsicular music. Yeah,
when I ain't got that problem, you know and uh,

(35:13):
you know, you know it's about to cut the splits
on a song. You know how much of it that
they're using, you know. But like I said, it was
important for me to make that reference about Puff. We
sat down. My beef was, I don't know if y'all
know about this. It was a big fallout. It was
a song that came out called talking to All That Jazz.
That's the sonic that was about me. Yeah, it's about sampling. Yeah,

(35:34):
sampling because what I was doing a chance to do
a co host the radio show called Open Line here
for about twenty years and it was yeah, yeah, I
was one of the co hosts Bob slave By picketing
myself and uh my only thing, and that we had
a conversation about sampling. I said, I'm not against sampling.
I'm listening to if you're gonna sample my music, payment.

(35:54):
Do you remember back then there was a big split
brothers and sister uh with music, and there was a
breakdown of what I called the cultural continuity man between
older blacks and younger blacks. Still going on today. Yeah,
but back then the music was the vehicle that really
expressed that division. And I just said, pay me man,
I said, be no different. If I took your rap
and put it on my song, that don't make it

(36:16):
my song. So Daddy heard part of that and didn't
hear the other half of which I said. The deepest
thing I heard that year was bringing the noise, you know,
public enby. But we worked to that. We've very good
friends now, but that was the whole thing was a
big I mean we you know, we had old head
black people that was running over the records and dcds
with yeah, yeah, yeah, please, I mean you know, but

(36:39):
I wasn't from that because I was listening to more
about your children, Your nieces and your nephews are reflection
to you. That's the mirror. And my generation didn't want
to look in the mirror, okay, And I've always been
against that, man, And it's like, um, we started looking
at y'all through other eyes. But it was all responsibility.
You know. The irony of that is the fact that
all rappers want to get paid. Now, rapper's not gonna

(37:01):
let you use their phone pay for everything they do.
But see that's a good point. But see back then,
cats were so the division was so so big that
cats were glad to be sample yea, just that, don't
have to pay me. You know, I had a brother,
I want to name his name, it's very popularly called
me and said, guess what, man, So it's so sample me?
I said, great, did you sample a check? So that's

(37:24):
what That's what that was. And it's interesting because back
then it was it was not only just a divide
of age. It was a musical genres. Because hip hop
was new. Y'all were doing the R and B thing.
It was like, who these ras? This rapperty rapp? Well
see no, no, you're right right now. I was coming
from just I mean to extend the conversation. See, my
front ground ain't my back. My back. My front ground
is jazz. I played with Miles Davis for five years,

(37:46):
so everything after that is like that was always yea
and coming out you know of jazz, then migrating into
R and bing funk. But I never looked at rapp
is like some kind of hybrid. I'm meant to each
general creates its own music. It's funny because listening to
Juicy Fruit, like when I got older, when I was young,
which version when I was, Yeah, you know, you just

(38:08):
sing it. You don't really know what you're singing about it,
songs about our sex. Really, I didn't know you just
put me. Well, well, Riggleis knew because they try to
sue me about gum. As a kid, you go too sick,
That's what I'm saying. But now listen to the lyrics.

(38:31):
I could look you everywhere. That's not about gum. So Riggles,
well they could. Why does anybody suit? They thought they
could get some money. So I go to the death
position and they have this long table, man, longest table
I ever seen in my life, and the Lord's all
on all the sides. And then and then I knew
that would get to the final the real question. Well,

(38:53):
mister Matomey, what do you mean by you can lick
me everywhere? And I said, well, you know, I'm not
talking about gum. I said, I'm talking about oral sex.
Everybody turned red and they dropped it right right now. No, no,
actually I'm not. Did they ever try to sample or
use your record because I have been dope they're gonna

(39:14):
just use the beat. Well that was my suggestion. You
can take advantage of that, and like this is this
is kind of happening. But they were like, you know,
that was old back in the day. It's not like
it is now with corporations migrate to what's happening. They
kind of ran from what was happening back then, you know,
just like in Grammy's you know, I want to Grammy

(39:35):
and not I don't even know where it is because
I was I something somewhere in there. I don't even
know where it is. No, I don't care for it.
Love like this. See, I'm glad you remember because I don't.
But the bottom line is the reason why I didn't
care about it. We went and that was back in
the day when they would give the Black Awards off
camera they still no no, yeah, but no, no, y'all

(39:55):
get a look, y'all get more played. But I mean
back then, none of the major black awards they come
back and say, yeah earlier tonight, you know what I mean,
we gave the black stuff out, so that never meant
nothing to me. And I never created music for awards.
I'm into reward. My reward is if the people love
what you're doing. I wonder why we never make more
noise about that overt racism, like that's an olvert racing,

(40:17):
Like the fact that they don't show the Grammys on TV,
and I mean you got the rappers at a boycotting
because they're like they don't show on TV. But that's
really like some overt racing, like why do might have
a cartogrammars off for being an over at racing goes?
You don't have a lot of political voices in the
music now, you know, I don't like this. I'm not
claiming to be because you know, we've met with the minister,
so you know where I'm at politically. But we don't

(40:37):
have a lot of people who have political consciousness. You know,
either you're an artist and you're devoid of any political
consciousness and you don't speak up. Like one of the
problems I've had with all the murders that go down,
why is it that we only get I rate if
a white cops shoots the black person. But we can
bump each off every bunch, bump each other off every day,
and there's no real raising of a voice within the

(40:59):
community the effects which used to be like a self
destruction And I I was so happy that was That's
something I'm real proud of. I was probably the oldest
cat they you know, they invited all right, well, don't
move we have more with James and Too Me Rest
in peace and condolences to his family. He stopped through
in twenty seventeen, and we're getting an interview back on
It's the Breakfast Club, Good Morning morning. Everybody is DJ

(41:25):
Envy Angela Yee, Charlemagne the guy. We are the breakfast
Club that was notorious big with juicy Of course it's
sampled James M. Twomey's uh classic song Juicy Fruit. All right, now,
rest in piece James and Too Me. Condolences to his family.
He stopped through in twenty seventeen, and we're just replaying
some of that interview, so let's get it back on.
It's the Breakfast Club, Good Morning. Now, what biggy samp

(41:47):
would you joined? He did? They even add real drum
patterns because it seems like it's your song all the
way muted vocals. Yeah, well, you know that was kind
of did he call you for that original? Oh oh yes,
oh yes, it wasn't a huffy puffy and I talked
what they did. They added some playing in it, but
it's the you know, it's the track. I'll show you

(42:08):
the contract. It's the track. The only song they sample
from 'all two I didn't Faith sample love like this before. Yeah, Faith,
I've got samples from NAS. Who's that song black Girl?
I got sampled with DMX uh jay Z Coming of Age.
That's the sample check. Well, yeah is amazing. Well albums.

(42:31):
I've been very fortunate. They continue to spend on radio,
very fortune. I know you followed the Minister m Yeah.
So did you have a relationship with brother Honorable Lodger
Muhammad and Michael Mexi No, no, brother, I'm I'm seventy.
I'll be seventy one in January. I was always an
avid follower, you know, in terms of reading the teachings
of the Honorable Logic Muhammed. I met the Honorable Minister

(42:55):
far Cohn in nineteen ninety five. We became very close
and uh he asked me to join him on several
delegations Libya. I've been Libya, South South Africa, Sudan, you know, Chuba,
meeting with Castro. So I've been traveling with the ministers
for about fifteen years. Did you ever use any of

(43:16):
the money you were making the fund some of those
civil rights movies back to the because you always hear
about like Harry Belafonte would do that for like Martin
King Jr. Did you ever do know, I do it
for community organizations, you said, you know, I think everybody
should have a platform, and mine is the things that
are happening in my immediate community. You know, I live
in South Lonera, New Jersey, so it's a lot of
anti violence organizations and stuff. And uh, some things we did.

(43:41):
I did with the prisons, you know, stuff paper, you know,
helping helping with those the kind of stuff you don't
really want to talk about, but you know, you just
got to do that, you know, and if you committed
to what you're talking about. I was reading somewhere, you're
one of the founders of Kana. Explain No, I did
just say I was dainty, I said, seventy. I'm one
of the one of the original celebrants. In other words,

(44:04):
when I went out to California to go to school, Uh,
I ran into h Karenga and Quansa. The original Quanza
was in nineteen sixty six. It was about ten of them.
I was involved in nineteen sixty seven when it was
about twenty three of us, and everybody was like, yo,
they're crazy. You know, they thought it was anti you know,

(44:25):
Christianity and anti Santa Claus. No, it was a cultural
holiday and the thing I'm most proud about. We decided
to do that. We didn't ask Congress to pass nothing,
you know, out of self determination. So no, I'm not
the originator, but I'm one of the participants. So to
this day, you still celebrate Quanza. I find like I've
been to your house, but I've been there for Yeah,
we've we've hosted a Quansa celebration for fifty years. You know.

(44:48):
Now you know my son and my daughter, you know, fine,
his sisters, sisters running now, you know up like I
youthed to, Well, well, you know what, You're absolutely right.
One of the one of the things that made it
fall off. It's misinformation. You know, people don't even know
who started it, you know, and and they have mixed
things like you know, if you were a Christian, you
can't it's none of that. But again, it was to

(45:11):
celebrate Quansa. But then when I got a little older,
they stopped and then it just never The McDonald's commercially
used to keep the McDonald's. McDonald's was heavy. The president
used to say, happy Quansa. You know, they stopped all
that you know, because you know, you know how that
is brother McDonald's we established something that it's actually celebrated
around the world. Man, So that's that's also part of

(45:34):
the music, you know, what is your cultural consciousness? Absolutely well, listen,
I appreciate you for coming through. I was flatter that
you would even want to come up to what you're
talking about. This to me, this is the kind of
setting I love. It's not enough conversations between older and younger,
you know, like younger will talk to itself. Oh, I
don't talk to old people. For what I mean, what

(45:55):
artists do you listen to? Now? Like what new artists? Well,
you know it's artists. But first of all, of course
Kendrick Lamar just blows me away. But I'm glad you
raised that question because more importantly to me, I'm listening
to the production of the new young producers, and I
found it's a very interesting cycle that has happened. You're
having a lot of young jazz cats produced like uh uh,

(46:19):
Terrence Martin does uh. He's an incredible saxophone. And as
a matter of fact, when I when I heard Kendrick's performance,
I called my son five, I said, man, get this
young brother's name, you know, because I called cats out
of the blue. I said I want to talk to
and he was into man, you know, wow, he said,
couldn't believe it. I said, no, Matt, I said, when
I heard that, Sax, I said, damn. And then you

(46:40):
have the Peple Butterflies, the real Jabs in Florida. Yeah. Yeah.
And then you have uh Rob glasper Robert Glass. Yeah,
I said, Rob, but sorry, you know. And then it's
the young brother that was when I talked to Common,
the brother that did his version. It's a jazz musician.

(47:02):
So something's coming. Something's coming because now the music is
doing full circle. These cats are in hip hop and
they also got a foot in jazz. They always say
jazz kind of got extinct. When extinct, Well, brother, um,
everything kind of gets extinct when it when it when
it begins to not be, when it no longer is

(47:23):
able to press the boundaries. Okay, look, parts of hip
hop got extinct when sampling just kind of people were
sampling the sample or the sample. It was like, okay, damn,
right when you don't hear music. I can say that
about blues. I mean, we created blues. Most young black
people don't know about where would they hear it? You
go to a blues concert, I can count the amount

(47:46):
of black and brown kids that are there. Do you
think hip hop might ever experience that fate has to
in order for something else to grow? Oh? Feel me,
it's called evolution. Yeah, I can't imagine it. Somebody's won't
come along, maybe thirty years from down, some little kid
and say, yo, that's the track. If everybody go. Everything

(48:10):
has to die in order for something new to come.
So you think jazz died for hip hop? Girl, I
don't think jazz died as much as it got co opted.
And that's what's happening now on hip hop because I
thought jazz too, because it was like to who was
it Michael Bolton? Now Michael Bolton? Michael Bolton, Well no,
he's a singer. Are you talking about Ken? Yeah? Yeah, yeah,

(48:33):
everything gets watered down, and once it gets watered down
into the larger public. See, capitalism has a way of
absorbing everything eventually, and you know you've seen it in
hip hop. But again, to repeat my point to you,
it has to whatever exists at some point has to
die in order for something new to be to replace it.
If I were a young artist coming up, and it's

(48:54):
a great time to come up. You know why because
you can create your music that sin and it's all
over the world. Don't need to get signed first of all,
signed to what. You know. Record companies are dinosaurs now,
you know, matter of fact, they cruise the net to
find out who's getting the most hits. They don't know
what's going on. And the deals they make with you know,

(49:14):
young artists are crazy three sixty deals. They take your publishing,
you know everything, part of your tour and all that.
This is a great time to be creative. The question
is will people take advantage of Wow. Well, thank you
to the good brother man. Thank you so much, bether
for having me. Thank you and and giving me a
chance to speak to your audience. And if they have

(49:35):
said anything of words, I hope you know some of
the definitely did my brother, thank you for coming man.
Okay man, it's the Breakfast Club all right. That was
our interview with James and to me. You can see
the full interview on the Breakfast Club YouTube page. Rest
in peace again and again condolacests to all his family.
All right, when we come back, we have the rumors
so don't move. It's to breakfast club. God, morning morning.

(49:57):
Everybody is Halloween, and guy, we are the breakfast club
on the wax. I did one hundred. By the way,
already talking push ups. We do push ups every morning.
We're getting back into it, all right, all right, get
rid of the man hitting. Let's get to the roumas.
Let's talk Lauren Hills club. All right. Well, Lauren Hill

(50:26):
is teaming up a screenwriter or in moverman, and that's
to executive produce a new documentary that will take a
close look at Newark's very prominent Baracca family. It's called
why is We Americans? Here is some of that trailer.
There's no trailerer, okay, all right, well, this documentary will
explore newark struggle with depression through the lens of the

(50:47):
Baracca families decades long, if more involvement within social activism, poetry, music,
in politics. We found the track. You know, Ross Baracca
is the mayor of Newark right now, but you know
a lot going on with his family and of course
his father, Mary Baracca, his wife Amina. And here is
that trailer, Why is We Americans? Any American poets in here?

(51:13):
Why is We Americans? I want to Hill an American poet.
In nineteen sixty seven, there were major uprisings in New York.
They invested in there like yang busses shout up the
whole street. We don't call them riots, we call them
the rebellion. I knew Amery Baracca's name as a freedom fighter,
as the people's champion. The ability to just be able

(51:36):
to speak truth is huge. We don't get it wrong.
We have mistakes. Yeah, I'm always gone to see a
good documentary. What's that coming out on um? That is
actually going to premiere at the IFC Center in New

(51:58):
York City on January fourteenth. Then it will be at
the Pan African Film Festival in February in La So
then I guess we'll see where it lands after that.
All right, But it's a really interesting family story. I
didn't know all of this about his family, So make
sure you guys check that out. And Kanye West has
teamed up with Balenciaga for the first of its kind

(52:20):
Yeasy Gap collection, so this should be a twenty twenty
two global launch. Kanye first shared the news on social media.
He posted a photo of the legal contract that was
signed by Gap, Yeasy and Balenciaga. In regards to that
business partnership, then Yeezy Gap shared a few details. They said,
the first of its kind launces's peerless vision. Yea's Peerless

(52:41):
Vision bring together the most influential designer of his generation, Demna,
with iconic American brand Gap and Yeasy Gap engineer by Balenciaga.
Continues Yea's commitment to bring creativity to the forefront and
delivering his vision of utilitarian design for all. So the
first drop is for June twenty twenty two, according to Vogue.

(53:03):
And according to reports, Kanye and Cardibie, You're also going
to be shooting a music video at a Miami Valenciaga store.
So they're going to be doing that in Miami's design district.
They said he was spotted at the store twice in
the past week. He was photographed shopping for an outfit
on New Year's Eve and then he was there with
Future as well. And you know, Kanye has been in
the news every single day. It seems like another thing

(53:25):
that he did recently was, you know, he loves to
let people freestyle for him on the street. Well, when
he was in New York City going to dinner at
Carbone with his new boo. I guess uh. This rapper
named Loner approached him and here's what that sounded like.

(53:56):
Keeping the morning in nothing else, try to get the
bitch of o's wanting there. They didn't even let us happen.
So we're about to start him by December. We just
gotta eat you know how. I know Kanye really likes
the energy of people like walking up to him and
Raven because he's got the perfect excuse, the perfect excuse

(54:16):
not to listen to people right now, COVID social distance.
Don't be running up on me without no mask and spitting.
That's the last thing I want. Clearly, he enjoyed it
right yeah and day and he was telling him, give
out your Instagram, give out your handles. So that's a
good promotion right there. All right now, Shine was on
Drink Champs. He sat down, of course with Nori and

(54:38):
dj EFN and he talked about a lot of different things,
like his career of politics, life after prison. He also
talks about his relationship with Diddy. After the whole incident
that happened in the New York City nightclub. He was
in jail from two thousand and one to two thousand
and nine for that nightclub shooting that he was involved in.
And here's what he said about blaming Diddy back then.

(54:59):
I don't blamed that on him now as much as
I did then because I did go through a stage
of course bitterness, human you know, I blame it more
on the lawyers that were advising him, because his lawyers
were there, excuse me to secure I'm not guilty, verdict. Um.
I think that's how everything you know fell apart. And

(55:20):
he said that to me, he said, you know, man,
you know, I'm sorry, man. You know I should have
never listened to those lawyers. And you know I forgave him.
That was over a decade ago, um, and I was
in a different space then. That's dope. So you can
check out that full Drink Champs episode where Sean talks

(55:42):
about a lot of different things including politics of course,
people always interested in that, his own career and what
he's been up to. And DJE fan Drink Champs smoking
out here in these streets and absolutely shout the Sean
po too. Definitely, and that is your rumor reports. All right, Schano, Man,
who are giving your dog can two? You know, four

(56:04):
after the hour I'm no Ghana collegist, you know what
I mean, But I bet you a Ghana collegist would
agree with me when it comes to this Donkey of Today.
We'll talk about it. Jokay, all right, we'll get into
it when we come back. It's the breakfast Club. God Morning,
the Breakfast Club. Your morning's will never be the same.
Naomi McDuffie is a girl who knows exactly where she's
going in life, but she's about to find out that

(56:25):
nothing is what it seems. Tuesday on the c W
from Ava Duvenai comes the can't miss new series Naomi,
Don't Believe Everything You Think and Don't Miss Naomi Tuesday nine,
eighth Central only on the c W. I was going
to Donkey. It's the Donkey. Don't get that, Charlomine Devil

(56:58):
Breakfast Club. Yeah, it's Donkey Today. For Monday, January tenth
goes to two young ladies by the names of Nicky
Grandel and Stacy Johnson. They both are arrested for grand larceny.
Let the record show I'm not judging either in one
of these individuals. Okay. One thing I have come to
realize is that in life, we are all simply one
wrong choice away from Donkey here today. That's all life

(57:20):
is about choices. Okay, we've all heard the quote destiny
is not a matter of chance, it's a matter of choice.
And that is true. All right, that's it. That's all
life is, just a series of choices. Folks make choices,
and sometimes those choices make the news. All right. This
is one of those times. Because the choice that a
lot of people are making in this moment that we
are in is to rob and steal. All right, Stop

(57:41):
backing like you don't see what's going on out here, folks,
all right, arm robbery, carjackings, burglary, petty, theft. It's all
up and it's stuck. In some cases, it is just
to stick up, all right, all right. In some cases
it is just to setup. This is what this was.
But it's not what these young ladies stole. It's how
they stole it. See. These young ladies met a man
on the Caesar's Palace casino or and decided to go

(58:01):
back to his hotel room. The man decided to take
a bath to freshen up a little, and he left
sixty five hundred dollars in cash rolled up in a
rubber band and a Rolex watch inside a Duffel back
all right, and the victim later said he couldn't find it. Dah,
how green are you? All right? I'd have been scared

(58:21):
if I was those two young ladies, because in my
mind I would have been like, this got to be
a set up, all right, This dude gotta be police.
He invited us up here to his room and then
went to take a bath and left his cash and
Rolex out. This is too easy, all right, this is
gonna be a breeze. I don't want it if it's
a breeze. But like I said, it's not what they stole,
it is how they stole it. See, Nicki and Stacy

(58:43):
were arrested after allegedly hiding the cash, sixty five hundred
dollars and a Rolex watch inside their panty wallace. Listen.
He were arrested after allegedly hiding cash and a watch
they stole in I did panty wilets I right, then,
vaginas I'm saying, I know Rolexes come in boxes, but

(59:06):
that doesn't mean you should hide them in the boxes
we come in. Now, what I'm confused about is why
didn't the ladies just leave when dude was in the tub,
all right, did you really think he was just gonna
stick these valuable items inside you for JJ and just
closed to meet curtains and nobody would be able to
detect what's going on? Contrary to popular belief, I don't
have a vagina, but I can only imagine, you know,

(59:27):
having a rolex, a whole time piece inside your love tunnel.
That has to be uncomfortable, So why not just steal
the cash and the rolex and leave? According to Las
Vegas Metropolitan Police, they did a body search of Stacy
Johnson and found the money bulging in her pants. Now,
I don't know if they could tell it was money
in her panties, but clearly the officer thought something smelled fishy,

(59:49):
so he investigated further and found the money. If I
was Stacy Johnson and there was a bulge in my
panties in twenty twenty two, I would tell that officer
of mine's business and don't worry about what I identify
as all right? You don't ask a lady about her
bolt in twenty twenty two? What's wrong with you? Now?
Nikki denied taking any items from the room period but
a puny. Booking her into the Clark County Detention Center,

(01:00:12):
officers conducted an X ray on her and that's when
they found the Rolex watch inside her front butt. See
this is how you turn your vertical smile into a
vertical frown. All right. I know some women got the
footpa and the food per looks like a fanny pack,
but that doesn't mean you're supposed to put things like
that in it, all right. You gotta be careful about
what you placed inside your old terrific pokole. If you
want to steal, Okay, I wish you wouldn't, but if

(01:00:33):
you want to steal, don't put those stolen goods inside
you goodies. All right, Your whiskey biscuit deserves better. Man.
I'm no kyd of colleges, but I better Gyda colleges
would agree with me. You're not even supposed to put
any and everything inside a garbage disposable, so why would
you put any and everything inside you for a burger? Okay,
all you ladies had to do was take the items
and leave hall ass out the hotel. What you're gonna

(01:00:53):
steal from this man and then sit there and help
him look for his stuff. Yes, he sounds green, all right,
and maybe green enough to bring y'all up to the
room in the first place and leave his valuables out
like that, But he's not green enough to sit there
and have y'all help him look for something that clearly
he knows y'all stole. Once again, I'm not telling you
how to steal. I want you to get a job.

(01:01:14):
But if you're going to steal, don't hide the clams
in your bed and clam please give Nicky Grandel and Stacey.
Uh what's her last name? Johnson? The sweet chimes in
the Hamletones. Oh no you are dogee, Oh the damn
do gee? Oh the day ye. Now what do you

(01:01:41):
call that? Is that boofing? Because I know when your man,
when a man sticks something up is but is boofing correct?
So is that kooffing? I didn't know that or you
didn't know what but boof that's that's how you called boofing. Yeah,
I never heard that. Yeah, when a man had something
in his buds boofing? Come on, you heard that before, you,
I swear I never did. I wonder why they call

(01:02:02):
it that, Yeah, y'all, don't y'all play a game, don't.
I really don't know what game the play, Sir, No,
I don't want to play a game. All right, we
could play a game. You want to play a game playing?

(01:02:25):
I'm not playing with a mind? Alright, mind? Alright, Well,
thank you for that. Donkey of the day. Yes, grow
up man, Why can't y'all grow up? Jesus he actually

(01:02:47):
this time? All right when we come back. Um, what
are we talking? Oh, Coach Jesse will be joining us.
Coach Jesse and doctor Uman. All right, we're talking what
are we talking? A moon? What are we talking this morning? Fertility?
That's what we're talking, fertility this morning? All right to yes,
Eggs over Easy. It's a documentary that was just on

(01:03:09):
own last week and it's talking about fertility, talking about
black women, a lot of different things that are really
important when it comes to having children. Okay, we'll get
into that next. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning, the
Breakfast Club five, The Breakfast Club. Your morning's will never

(01:03:30):
be the same morning. Everybody is DJ Envy Angela Yee,
Charlomagne the guy. We are the Breakfast Clubs. We have
some special guests joining us this morning. Indeed, we have
coach Jesse and doctor a Moon good morning, good morning,
good morning. Year. So a couple of nights ago, you
were on own Eggs Over Easy the documentary, So break

(01:03:54):
down what Eggs Over Easy is. It's not a cooking show.
No no, So shout out to the creator Shaquida Lockley
and director who invited me to be a part of this,
which was my TV debut. So excited to share this story.
It really is about black women infertility. Okay, infertility is

(01:04:17):
this ferocious battle that tears away at your soul, your spirit,
your body, your finances, your relationships, and it is layered
with the complexities of socioeconomic issues, right, health, inequities, isolation, anxiety, heartache,

(01:04:39):
all these other issues. And what the film specifically said,
let's let's talk about the title. What it talked about
specifically was Black women and infertility. And the reason it
was titled that is because you know, there's been talk
how when a woman is having issues with infertility, they'd say, oh,
your eggs are hard boiled, rambled, right, which is so

(01:05:00):
disrespectful housewives, And that's why she named it that. Um,
the creator named it that because she says, no, you
know what we need to reframe the narrative. We need
to center the conversation because you know, the stats say
it's what ten percent women are affected by infertility, but
when you look at Black women, it's a whole they

(01:05:22):
actually say, the studies say it could estimate at fifty
percent higher. Why because of the gaps in access um
no reporting. Yeah, we're not even get into that. The
fireboards that actually are one of the leading causes. It's
firebords and demetriosis mp pcos are some of the leading
causes of infertility and which just apportionately affected by them.

(01:05:44):
Eighty to ninety percent of Black women are affected by them.
So so now we're disproportionately affected by the issue that
causes more infertility in our communities. Right, and then when
you look at the infertility um support services that are
available the advanced reproductive technology, you see that you don't
see people like us in the centers, right, you don't
see people like us. The babies don't even look like

(01:06:06):
us in terms of the babies on the wall. You know,
when I went to my IVF clinic, you know really,
so why I was in the film was because of
my infertility journey when I was thirty years old. Husband
and I were four years into our marriage, and you know,
we're planners. We're planners who were like, you know, we're
not gonna we're gonna we're gonna enjoy marriage first and

(01:06:27):
then we're gonna, like, you know, check off the list.
When now we're ready to expand our family. And we
started working to conceive six months and we're not making progress. Now.
The technical definition of infertility is that you're unable to
conceive with unprostected sex for a year. But you know,
something in me was like, wait a minute, um something,

(01:06:49):
I'm a check to see what's wrong. I'm not gonna
wait for a year. Went to the gyn and she said,
wait a minute, actually, you know you there's something going
on here. You have fibroids. That's how I found out.
I didn't have any other symptoms at that time. But
the truth is, my leading issue of fire brods was
the infertility. That was my symptom. And at that point

(01:07:12):
I ended up having a minamactomy because that's the surgery
to remove fire brids that most at that time was
available to preserve your uterus and your fertility. And you know,
they said, oh, you'll get pregnant. Right away, no problem.
Five years later, I'm not pregnant. And you know, you
get busy working, you get busy in your career, and

(01:07:33):
I just wait a minute, something's wrong. But symptoms for
firebirds are coming back. Because the firebirds are back now
and now I have to have they're ferocious. I can't
even walk at some times the pain is so bad.
And then I said, I'm going to go to a
fertility specialist because this doctor she said I was supposed
to get pregnant. I didn't. I'm gonna go to a
fertility specialist who's also gyn. And he said it was

(01:07:57):
one of the most horrific cases he'd seen, and he
said he'd have I'd have to be cut open stem
to stern vertically, and that surgery ended up not only
was it a you know, trauma again abdominal surgery, but
the point is, ten days later they had to cut
me open because I had to have a second surgery
from complications from that surgery, which is now I had

(01:08:20):
so much scar tissue where it nighted up my small
testine and I couldn't even eat can keep food down.
It's called a small bow obstruction. Okay, So now ten
days within ten days, I've had two major abdominal surgeries.
All right, next piece of news. He tells me, Oh,
you're gonna have to do IVF because they're scarring all
over your fallopian tubes from these surgeries, which I had

(01:08:41):
to preserve my fertility right like to be able to
have a baby. We did the IVF and the first
cycle we conceived, like, yes, amazing. Right, ten weeks later,
the baby's heart beat stopped. I never forget that day.
We were literally the week before we had heard the bay.

(01:09:05):
We saw the baby's heartbeat. You know, it looks like
you've seen it in a few times, and they said, wait,
something's wrong the baby. We're not seeing the baby's heartbeat.
So they call it's called a mistabortion. Where now they
had to go and do a DNC to remove the baby.
So at this point they're like, you know, okay, but
you're young, you know, don't worry about it because this

(01:09:27):
is something we hear in the fertility journey. Oh, don't
worry about it, don't But the eggs over easy film.
What I loved is the fact that it dealt with miscarriage,
dealt with zurigacy, It dealt with all the different facets
of infertility. At this point, here I was, you know,
women who have miscarriages are made to feel like, oh,
you know, just you'll get over it. You just you

(01:09:48):
can try again, right, and not help to actually breathe
that pain that you were our mother. I know. The
minute I was pregnant, I felt the connection with my baby,
you know, And here I was having to grieve that loss.
We did press on. I have an amazing husband. Shout
out to my husband, who is Mark. You are amazing.
You know, I love you. I couldn't have did this

(01:10:10):
without you. And um. We then had failed IVF, So
the next couple of years it was either IVF or
five boards surgery because guess what I found out later
the fertility treatments were actually fueling the fire boards growing.
So back and forth I'm having fertility treatments and five
boards And how expensive was all this? No, so let's

(01:10:33):
talk about that as well. With the socioeconomic barriers of
women making sixty one cents on the dollar. Right in
that time when we were doing it, my insurance only
covered like the meds, right, but it was fifteen thousand.
Now I think there's like it's more available. A long time. Yeah, well,
come on when when I tried it five years ago,

(01:10:54):
it was twenty nine thousand, fifty to thirty that's what
the range was. And they give you they pulled, they
take the eggs out and they give you two chances.
And um, well no, we didn't have two chances. That
was for one. No, they give us two. They give
us two opportunities. It was so weird they give you
two opportunities. It's so crazy, like a gamble, but they

(01:11:15):
gave you two opportunities. It was thirty grand and no guarantees,
no guarantees, and we lost. And me and my wife
had to do it during Powerhouse like five years ago.
This is before Brooklyn was born. Um, and you know
you got to take the shots in your ass, shouts
in the stomach, and it has to be at a
certain time and then um, like it was during the
middle of Powerhouse, so they're performing. Me and my wife

(01:11:37):
had to fire corridor. Yeah. I remember going into the
into the restaurant bathroom to go do the shots. You
know what, I mean, to do it a certain time financially,
emotional and emotionally, you are going. But one thing, my
husband said to me, I'm so glad. I knew you
before you started this, and I knew you who you
are because you show up like this is so much

(01:11:59):
emotion that you're going through in this all we got
more when we come back with Coach Jesse and doctor Amon,
who don't move. It's to breakfast Club, Go Morning Morning.
Everybody is DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlomagne the guy. We
are the breakfast club. We're still kicking in with Coach
Jesse and doctor Amon. Yea. Every woman like well not
every woman, but so many women when you talk to

(01:12:19):
them who have had kids, have had a journey and
had a miscarriage and things that they don't talk about.
You know. I ran into somebody the other day at
my coffee shop and she was telling me she's pregnant.
She's five months pregnant. She looked like, you know, last
year I had a miscarriage and I told my husband,
I told my fiance, I'm gonna wait a few months
before we try again. I just need to give myself

(01:12:40):
a break. Yes, you know, and so many people have
these stories and a lot of times people are ashamed
to talk about them, and that is the number they
get judged. Yes, yeah, and That's what I find with
a lot of with all black women, that they are
shamed during barrass it's having a miscarriage because there's so
much pressure, there's so much expert expectations for a black woman.

(01:13:02):
So for them to say that they've had a miscarriage,
it's almost like they shown upon like what did you
do wrong? Right? Exactly what was happening wrong with you?
Are the woman? Straight away? Anytime you're talking about infertility,
it's always the woman that gets attacked. No one really
looks at the men, like are we shooting blanks our

(01:13:22):
sperm count or do we have sperm as our sperm
functioning correctly? Is the quality we don't? We kind of
get overlooked, and I think that needs to be That's
a huge piece. Yeah, that next thing we need to
re educate that when we're talking about infertility, it's you know,
when you conceive, it takes two people, you know, so

(01:13:42):
if you're infertile, it could be the responsibility of two people.
Not the numbers show it. The numbers even say that
nine percent of men are the factor of infertility ten
percent of women. Okay, so it's not like it's one
percent men and fifty percent women, you know what I mean,
we just I think they just blame it on absolutely

(01:14:04):
because we're body. It's you. You're supposed to be able
to do this, and somehow if it's not working, you're broken.
I think that's the sad part about it. I think
for a lot of people, even for myself. You know,
when I had my first four kids, happened so fast,
it wasn't a problem. We never went through any miscarriages
or anything, right, and now when when when the when

(01:14:25):
the fifth child came, which was Brooklyn, we couldn't get
pregnant for nothing, and we had a couple of miscarriages
to the point when we have Brooklyn, even with Peyton,
with the last baby, I didn't get to enjoy Peyton
until Peyton came home. And the reason being is because
you're always scared, like, yeah, I've been to the same thing.
They see a heartbeat one week and then next week
they don't see it, but they're not sure and they

(01:14:47):
don't tell you. So to be black, you know, you
have to go to another specialist to see and then
when they go to the specialists, they don't see or
the same thing where you know, one time there was
a baby there and then we came back a couple
of weeks later. The baby wasn't there ready, right, you know,
So we've been through that. We've been through that a
couple of times, and it was like with Peyton, it
was like, I don't know, I don't want to get
myself excited yet. And even when I've seen the baby.

(01:15:07):
There was a woman that calls the radio all the
time and she had her baby and she lost her
baby a week later. Heart to stop, right, And when
I heard that story, like I still couldn't get excited
because that's all I'm thinking. Now Peyton's home for a week. Now,
I'm excited. But at first I lost that excitement because
I'm scared. I'm scared to get connected and then a

(01:15:28):
miscarriage or there's a problem. So it's like the fact
that people are talking about it more, you realize it's
more common than you think. You know that what you
just said. And that's what I love about this film
is that it talks about everything from surrogacy to a dot.
The other thing is so many people don't you know.
I want women to think about the fact that you
there are many paths to motherhood, right, and there are

(01:15:51):
women who think unless you, they've been framed think in
their spouses even support this thought that you're not really
a mother unless you carry the baby and birth the
baby yourself. And I really want us to dismantle that, okay,
because for some of us, there are babies. Your name
is on that baby and somewhere that baby, but that

(01:16:11):
baby needs to be adopted. But that baby's for you,
because let me tell yourself, when you're raising that child,
you're not gonna be thinking about the pregnancy. I don't
sit there and say, oh yeah, I wish I remember
being pro I sit there I love my child because
I love being a mother to the child, saying that's
a critical piece and then and then surrogacy like shout
out to Gabrielle Union, who publicly shared her story, because

(01:16:32):
the point is people have to think there are other ways,
there are other options, and don't put your you know,
if you want to be parents, to do it in
a way that supports like open up the thinking, think
about the different ways to it, and then egg freezing
for our sisters who are out there and who are
pleased your twenties. You're a power broker. You're someone who's

(01:16:54):
looking to focus on your career and or you you
haven't met mister Wright or your listen. It's expensive, but
it is worth it. All those bags, all those shoes,
all the baby showers you spend money on, Let's have
a shower for you. Actually, Calais Stewart spoke about it
in the film. She said, why don't we have an
egg freezing shower? Okay, because the older we get, the

(01:17:17):
less eggs we have. It significantly drops. Okay. I got
so many homegirls that froze eggs over the past four
or five years, and I feel that one year younger
and you go to the doctor that they even suggest
it's not kind of scary. It's when the young lady
on the Eggs over Easy documentary yesterday, she didn't know,

(01:17:40):
to the age of thirty seven that women are only
given or born with a sending amount of eggs. Yeah,
that's not educated. When I educated about it, she was
thinking it was the same mechanism of how men every
you know, three months we produced I've been hearing about
this my whole life, from miscarriages, the women freezing their eggs.

(01:18:02):
So yes, I knew that I had. I mean, I
guess could be as so many women like I hear
these conversations all the time. They talk about it though,
to the point that we have because you can actually
measure your levels when you go to the doctor AMH
and FSH levels. And that's the thing that I want
to get to drill. If anything to my sisters, don't
be scared ut lines the medical uh technology that he

(01:18:27):
is dead. Get your testing done, you know, get your
blood wet done, get your hormone levels done. So if
they request the AMH and the FSA, which is what
angel was saying, they know what it is because you're
talking too fast, So request the AMHM Anti malarian hormone
and FSH follicle stimulating hormone tests. And what Angela was

(01:18:48):
just saying is that we're not When you go for
your g y and visits they do a PAP smear, right,
they don't at your twenties, they check your for SDS,
but they don't specifically say, hey, you know, um let's
check your fertility levels, like, because you need to know.
If you don't know, you need to understand STDs can

(01:19:09):
prevent you exactly diseases right and as well as alcohol
and type right, and what happens there is where your
ovary or your falobian tubes get scarred or get blocked,
and that prevents the eggs meeting the sperm. And again
this in it, it's the embarrassment, the shame that they

(01:19:29):
feel embarrassed to go and talk about they maybe have chlamydia.
You're gonna right, And it's when when it's left untreated
for a period of time. This is now where the
scars and the and the blockages and the damage comes
to the flobbian tubes. But there's this stigma that if
you have a STD somehow you are you know, a
whole or a loose woman on things of that nature.

(01:19:51):
When you could be in you know, a marriage or
relationship and never stepped out. But he stepped out right,
And so we really need to and I think what
we need to do is a community has come together
to support the black woman because she gets attacked from
every angle, absolutely every angle, from that physician to her husband,
to a family, to the careers to Joe Bloggs on

(01:20:14):
the road, and we really need to support her to
let her know that, look, you've got nothing to be
ashamed of. These are things that can naturally occur, and
we have solutions. But we appreciate you guys for joining us. Absolutely.
We need to make sure that you guys continue and
let us know when you launch and we'll talk. I
might do the seven. How about the women, come on,
let's do it. Let's do it for the completion, we'll talk.

(01:20:39):
How about you and I thought about that because everybody
may feel like they can't do the water fast. How
about you choose the fast you want to do, but
you do the fast that I can do. Came already one, guys.
We appreciate you guys. Thank you again, and thank you
so much for always making this conversation impossible. The Breakfast

(01:21:03):
Club morning, everybody is dch envy Angela yee. Charlomagne the guy.
We are the breakfast Club now, um, Charlomagne, did you
get that text I sent you about the COVID tests
and how to test if you have COVID? Boy? What
is you talking about? I sent it in your text?
Somebody said it to me to say you can test
for COVID. You sent me something with a button a finger,

(01:21:24):
and I really wish you would stop. Now you wanted
me to stop. It says you stick, you stick your
finger in your and then you pull it out and
if you smell something, that means you ain't got it. Yeah,
that's that's my daddy used to always tell me that.
When it comes to a STDs, he said, digging your
air a little bit, put a little wax on your finger,
and then when you stick it in the girl poop
from if she jumped, that means she got something. So
that's what that sounds like to me. That sounds like

(01:21:45):
one of them to silly ass home remedies to me,
I don't know. Okay, well, and by the way, if
you can smell it, you probably don't got it because
COVID takes you sense the smelling, your taste. That's the
whole point. Try it right fast. So hold you said,
if you smell it, you got to smell something on
your fingers. You ain't got it. Oh you don't have it?
Try right Oh got you got you? You got the
smell at a bookito, But what about the taste? What

(01:22:06):
you mean? What about the taste. There's no taste test challenge,
no tastest taste tests, there's no taste test for cold.
There's no taste Oh okay, all right, well, let's get
to the rooms. Let's talk John Legend. This is the
Rumor Report with angela year all right. John Legend is

(01:22:29):
one of the latest musicians to turn over his catalog
and sell his catalog. And so the twelve time Grammy
Award winning singer and of course you know he's a
coach on the Voice right now, and he does have
his residency in Vegas happening. He sold off his catalog
of music dating back to his first album, so that
starts from December first, two thousand and four to January first,

(01:22:50):
twenty twenty one, as well as the copyrights to the works,
according to a statement that was filed in November in
New York. So there you have it that a lot
of musicians have been doing this lately. We've seen fifty
cent Nellie, Bruce Springsteen, Tina Turner, a lot of people
just selling off their catalog right now. The Dream sold
seventy five percent of his catalog for twenty three million,

(01:23:11):
Smokey Robinson, Whitney Houston to State, Ray Charles and a
lot more. Yeah, I mean a lot of people are
doing it. I just wonder if they're selling it full catalog,
ifs it part and how long? You know, some people
are selling it for ten years or five years or
twenty years, And I mean, I guess they're doing things
with that money that they can make even more money,
or maybe they're just cashing out and just relaxing. I
don't know, right they said, a lot of you have

(01:23:32):
to do with tax benefits also, and the market is
crazy right now, and people are also paying a lot
of money for people's catalog So maybe people might feel
like it's a bubble and let's do it now while
you can. But it's all whatever financial decision you decide
to make, right all right now. Reason was on the
Red Pill podcast and one thing that he was talking

(01:23:52):
about that people were arguing about was whether Fabulous is
a better MC than on j three thousand. Here's what
he had to say. I feel like you're you lined
up fabulists on hundred three thousand. I got my money
on Fat. That's how I feel. What up? I'm about
to hang on fab God Damn that boy from Atlanta
is a most reason Reason. Come on, we love fam

(01:24:13):
I love fab you know damn? Well three Well, that's
the thing. I don't spect to Fat. He's out wrapped Wayne.
If you can outrap Wayne, you can outrap Andre three thousand. Like,
I'm not saying that it's easy for Fad, but I
think it Bab came in there with the mindset of
I want the best verse. I think Bab can outrap

(01:24:33):
Andre three thousands on that verse. Um, I don't like
these convos. And the reason I don't like these convos
because you know, both these brothers are great. But it
feels like when we have these convos, it would cause
us to take away from the greatness of Fab. You
know what I mean. Fabi is great, that's great. He's
had a legendary career. He's been a consistent All Star
throughout his career. He'll be in the Hall of Fame.

(01:24:55):
But Andree thousand is a once in a generation culture
sifting type of artists. Like, there's nobody, nobody you compare
Andrea three thousand two. He's the first and only Andrea
three thousand and we've ever seen. Fab has gotten compared
to a lot of people, you know, throughout his career
from from day one. But he's great, you know, But
it's like comparing, like like Tracy McGrady, trays McGrady is

(01:25:17):
phenomenal All Star Hall of Fame player, but It's not
Kobe Bryant, you know what I mean, It's a different
People love. People love these versus conversations, as you know,
So it definitely gets everyone rilled up. Another thing that
had people rilled up was Timberland. He was on his
Instagram live listening to the Weekends album and he compared

(01:25:38):
the Weekends New album to Michael Jackson's Thriller. Really, this
album is different, y'all? Right, trust me, I haven't heard it,
have y'all? No, I haven't heard the Weekends album, but

(01:25:58):
I planned to listen. But we have to get to
a point where we can just say something is dope,
you know, without comparing it to something else. Because soon
as you say thriller and I don't hear Thriller, now
I'm disappointed, you know what I mean. And plus you're
talking about when did Thriller come out? Eighties, nineteen eighty eight,
eighty eighty one, eighty two, Like that music is stood

(01:26:21):
to test the time. Like there's so much feelings and
emotion attached to that Thriller album. Like you don't do
that the Weekend And why don't we do that to people?
Don't do that? Yeah, you're right, don't do that and last,
but not at least it twenty twenty two Golden Globes winners.
Because of the pandemic, everything was not in person, so
you just get to know who won. And one legendary

(01:26:42):
win was m J. Rodriguez, who became the first transgender
actor to win a Golden Globe for pose. Here is
what you had to say. I have to say this

then then I googled and they said something like I

(01:27:50):
