for John Lewis, and she's got a special edition of
our podcast on one and I think she's putting out

could talk about that amongst other things. You know, where

(02:12):
ninety what nineties five days until the election, ninety five
ninety six, roughly around that time. I don't don't quote
me on that, but we're close, so we got things
to discuss, that's right. All right, Well, let's get the
crack in front page news. What we're talking about. Well,
let's talk about John Lewis and his funeral yesterday. President

(02:33):
Barack Obama actually gave the eulogy, and we have part
of that for you. All right, we'll get into that next.
Keeping lock this to breakfast club. Good morning morning. Everybody
is j Envy Angela Yee, Charlomagne the gad We all
the breakfast club. Let's get in some front page news.
Where were starting you? Well? Yesterday was John Lewis's funeral

(02:54):
service in Atlanta, Georgia, and well and it was a
complete week memorial services that have in to remember him.
Former President Barack Obama delivered a eulogy celebrating John Lewis's life.
Here is what he said. To honor him, Do you
want to honor John? Let's honor him by revitalizing the
law that he was willing to die for and by

(03:19):
the way, naming it the John Lewis Voting Rights Act.
That is a fine tribute. But John one want us
to stop there. Once we pass the John Lewis Voting
Rights Act, we should keep marching to make it even
better by making sure every American is automatically registered to vote,

(03:39):
including former inmates who've earned their second chance, by adding
polling places and expanding early voting, and making election day
a national holidays. Yes. In addition, here is more of
what Barack Obama had to say about John Lewis. I

(04:00):
guarantee that every American citizen has equal representation in our government,
including the American citizens who live in Washington, d c.
And in Puerto Rico, by ending some of the partisan
jerry mandering, so that all voters had the power to
choose their politicians, not the other way around. And if
all this takes eliminating the filibuster another Jim Crow relic

(04:24):
in order to secure the god given rights of every American,
then that's what we should do, all right. In addition
to that, he did get a standing ovation, and here's
what he said. And a lot of people were excited
that he said this because this is against Donald Trump.
But today we witness with our own eyes police officers

(04:47):
kneeling on the necks of black Americans. George Wallace may
be gone, but we can witness our federal government sending
agents to use tear gas in batons against peaceful demonstrators.
But even as we sit here, there are those in
power who are doing their darndest to discourage people from

(05:09):
voting by closing polling locations and targeting minorities and students
with restrictive idea laws and attacking our voting rights with
surgical precision, even undermining the postal service in the run
up to an election that's gonna be dependent on mail
in ballots so people don't get sick. You know, President

(05:32):
Obama is absolutely right, but I really do wish he
would name names. Like he's too vague, Like when you say,
you know, somebody's the new George Wallace, the new bull Conna.
You gotta you gotta say their names. Who are these
people are? You gotta call people out directly. That's one
of the things that the right does very well. They
aim at a target and name that target and vilify
that target, make that target radioactive. If this is the

(05:52):
most dangerous election ever that we can't throw subliminals, you
know who exactly in the federal government. Who is the
power the power that powers that beat out of doing this.
You got a name names. Well, yesterday Donald Trump tweeted
out with universal mill in voting that absentee voting, which
is good, twenty twenty will be the most inaccurate and
fraudulent election in history. It will be a great embarrassment

(06:14):
to the USA to lay the election until people can properly,
securely and safely votes. Yep, so everybody, And later that afternoon,
he tweeted out, we are going to win the twenty
twenty election. Big hashtag maga. There's nothing that could be
more fraudulent than the twenty sixteen election. You know, we
still don't know how Donald Trump exactly got into the

(06:34):
White House. Okay, a lot of people say he's a
illegitimate president. And also Joe Biden told us a few
weeks ago that Donald Trump was going to um try
to get the election pushed back, and a lot of
people wanted the rights. That he was tripping and he
was bucket and he was crazy. But that's who Trump is.
I don't think Trump's gonna lead a White House. I
said that about a year ago. Come get him if
he if he loses in November, you're gonna have to

(06:56):
go get him. He's leaving the White House. Don't say
agent out there rounding people up in Portland. They're gonna
be out there protecting Donald Trump come January twentye for
whatever day it is that he's gonna have to exit
if he loses. All right, And yesterday every NBA player
who restarted the NBA season nailed during the national anthem

(07:16):
wearing Black Lives Matter shirts just as an FYI. TU, So,
I don't know if you guys saw this, but the
Utah Jazz beat the New Orleans Pelicans one or six
to one on four and the Lakers beat the Clippers
one o three one on one. All right, yeah, I
saw some of the Lakers game. I'm gonna be honest
with you. The Lakers Clippers game was dope. It looks
like a video game. I like it. I like the
camera as I like everything. They got the fake they

(07:37):
got the fake crowd on the wall, they got the
noises like it feels like you're playing two K or something.
It does. It really feels like something. It's still feeling,
but I get it. Yeah, not to me. I was
watching the last thing. I was like wow. Inside the
NBA was popping, like I was like, Okay, maybe we
haven't had it for so long that I'm just happy
to have something. But it looked good to me. All right,

(08:00):

who's this? Hello? This is Chevron, Florida. Get it off. Yes, Um,
I just wanted to say that I agreed with you

(09:48):
guys or about President Obama doing a good job with
the eulogy, but I disagreed with Charlomon um saying that
he needed to name names, because um, it makes some
like you're saying that, Um, you know, the people aren't
smart enough to figure it out. The people that are
that are listening to him and are smart enough to

(10:08):
understand what he's saying between the lines, they're they're smart
enough to know who he's talking about the government too. Yeah,
but what about the ones who aren't. What about the
casual person who's just watching John Lewis's funeral and may
want to vote in November, but hasn't decided yet. See
that's why that's Fox News is so good. I watched
Fox News this week and they've vilified sending the Kamala Harris.
They vilified Karen bass Like and you know, those are

(10:29):
the those are a couple people that's on Biden's shortless.
They vilify the people on the left that they're afraid of.
And that's what the that's what the left needs to
do to the right. Why not you're saying, basically, you know,
get down to their level, get down and dirty. Michelle
Obama says, when they go low week, go high. No, man,
but this is an election. Man. They called into the
Kamala Harris for fraud, But this is an election. You

(10:52):
have to point out the threat and vilify it and
say we need to get that person out of the
White House period Like why why just past the wide
net and be vague at a time like this? No? What?
All right? Well, thank you for checking in, brother, thank

of just not hilarious Hill. I don't like risk, really
really sick of her ass. Bro, Mad the Stallion really said,

(11:58):
stop playing with my name, stop laughing that stuff is
not funny. Protect black woman. And you know what this
black woman does the very next day, She makes a
video making fun to make the Stallion anyway, Bro, Like,
something's wrong with that lady, Like, something is truly wrong
with her. She can only get lights and views off
being negative and trying to be funny. Like it really

(12:19):
irritates me, Bro. Yeah, we talked about that yesterday. I
didn't think that timing and that joke was funny, especially
because Make the Stallion's been saying, you know this was
not funny. I am traumatized. What irritates me is when
Traf calls a pin act like we ain't got the internet,
like you're putting us onto something something. Remember I called
you on last week and I told you about Tom

(12:39):
Hanks and what he was doing. I just wanted to say,
three days ago, um, he said that he went overseas
because he him and his wife was quarantining. But three
days ago him and his wife are now citizens of Greece.
Just saying it's a little funny. If I was Tom Hanks,
I would sue the hell out of all of y'all. Okay,
the Internet is ruining Tom hanks reputation, but absolutely no proof,

(13:02):
no evidence, no nothing like how like why is that okay?
And why do y'all believe that? I don't know? Now
that's the story. People probably don't know what the hell
I'm talking about. Hello, who's this? This is this Kevin?
I want to call. I'm real happy for this young
brother man he called up a while back, and I'm
a following number since he called up and sang his
song for y'all, and I guess he dropped some last

(13:23):
night called Heart Heart and Soul. That's Heart and Soul

he produced his own beats. He runs track number thinking
number one in the country and hurdles, man, And I
just hopefully he heared this because I know he called

All right? Did I get the irony of it? Though
he's on tracks any jump runs hurdles? All right? That
was a lot right there, Get it off your chests.
Eight hundred five eight five one on five one. Now

(14:52):
we got rooms on the way. Yes, And with all
the talk about Ellen de Generous and the problems that
her staff has had and visitors on her show and
what they had to say about it being a terrible
work environment, Ellen de Generes is now addressing her staff
and we have that memo. All right, we'll get into
that next. Keeping locked this to Breakfast Club. Good morning,
the Breakfast Club. Morning. Everybody is cj Envy angela Ye,

(15:15):
Charlomagne the guy. We all the Breakfast Club. Let's get
to the rumors. Let's talk Loon. Listen, oh Gosport got
Breakfast Club. Yes, former bad boy artist Loon was released
from prison. He served ninety years. According to reports, he's

(15:35):
gonna lay low take care of his mom now that
he's home. He said, my mother recently had a heart
attack and had to get surgery and get a loop
recorder implantation. She's in her late sixties. I've already lost
my grandfather since I've been incarcerated, and do not wish
to lose her before my release. She could use my
assistance to help care for her. My grandmother is ninety
and she is also ailing. So there was a picture

(15:57):
of him that's already surfaced on the internet, the first
picture that everybody's seen since he has been released. Since
he was in jail, he converted to Islam, changed his
name to a mayor, Junied Muhadith, and also reportedly gave
up rap. Happy that he's home and free. Happy, you know,
he did his time and you can, you know, continue

(16:18):
to live the rest of his life as a free
mass Loue to that brother, loan shout the loan. All right. Now,
let's talk about Ellen Degeneras and the toxic workplace allegations.
A lot of people have been discussing this, staffers, former staffers,
guests who have been on her show, just basically saying
she's not a nice person. So she did send out
a memo and they also have reported that employee at

(16:41):
a WarnerMedia's employee relations group and a third party firm
would interview former and current staff members about the allegations.
So in that memo, she said, Hey, everybody's Ellen. On
day one of our show, I told everyone in our
first meeting that the Ellen Degenerous Show would be a
place of happiness, no one would ever raise their voice,
and everyone would be treated with respect. Obviously, something changed,

(17:01):
and I am disappointed to learn that this has not
been the case. And for that I am sorry. Anyone
who knows me knows it's the opposite of what I
believe and what I hoped for our show. She goes
on to talk about the success that she's had with
everyone's contributions, and she also says that I'm glad the
issues at our show were brought to my attention. I
promised to do my part in continuing to push myself

(17:22):
and everyone around me to learn and grow. It's important
to me and to everybody who makes and she wants
to make it so that people love working on the show. Again.
Now I'm confused. People want are saying Ellen is not
a good person, But the last article pointed out that
it was the executive producers and the executive producer, Ed

(17:44):
Glavin actually the party yesterday he stepped down. So which
one is it? Is it Ellen that's not a good
person or the executive producer the executive producer step down yesterday.
I think it's been both. There's people who have had
interactions with her that they've spoken about where she was
not very nice. And then there's people who also say
that it's the staffers that would tell you you're not
allowed to talk to her, you can't look her in

(18:05):
the eye. You know, she's not They would do things
like if she was going to be a guest on
somebody else's show, you know, just whittled things down. So
maybe they anticipated having a sit down with her, then
they're like, Okay, she's actually not going to come. Have
to sit down when she comes to the studio, would
only be ten minutes instead of the hour they were
supposed to get. It's just all two kinds of different
allegations from both ends. Yeah. Yeah, the the article that

(18:27):
came out the past couple of days don't say that
at all. They actually said the executive producers engaged in
Rampant Sexual's conduct and harassments. That's a little bit more
than somebody not looking you in the eye. Right, yeah, right, Well,
the executive producers stepped down yesterday. I just think there's
been a lot of people that have discussed there was
a whole It all started with this Twitter threat that
someone put out. They talked about his interaction with Ellen

(18:48):
DeGeneres and how she was not very nice to him,
and then a lot of people weighed in on their
experiences with her as well, and then they started talking
about the environment of the show in general. All right, Now,
Nicki Mana's husband, Kenneth, is asking a judge for a
special request. He wants to be present for the birth
of their baby. So he also wants permission to travel
with Nicki on business trips as her manager because she

(19:11):
could be having the baby who knows when. So the
problem is that he can't travel right now. He was
supposed to register as a sex offender in the state
of California, as he was reportedly arrested for failing to
do so when he moved there with Nikki, So now
he has to get a special sign off from the
judge so that he can do that. I hope he
gets that sign off. It's nothing like being there for
the birth of your child. It makes sense. Yeah, that's

(19:34):
nothing like being able to broth of your child. And
that's Nikki's you know, for first time giving birth. He
needs to be there for his coin, all right. And
then and we'll get into more of this in the
next hour. But Nicki Mina's that song asap ferg Has

now streaming only on Disney Plus. All right, thank you,
miss ye. Now we got front page news next. What
we're talking about. Yes, we are going to be talking
about Donald Trump and his tweets, and of course we'll
be talking about John Lewis and his funeral was yesterday,
dj Envy Angela ye Chlomagne, the guy we are the

(22:05):
breakfast Club. Let's getting some front page news. Where we
starting you? Well, yesterday John Lewis was remembered at a
funeral service in Atlanta, and Barack Obama delivered the eulogy.
One thing that John Lewis that has defined his legacy
is voting rights right. And here is what Barack Obama

(22:26):
had to say, but today we witness with our own
eyes police officers kneeling on the necks of black Americans.
George Wallace may be gone, but we can witness our
federal government sending agents to use tear gas and batons
against peaceful demonstrators. But even as we sit here, there

(22:47):
are those in power who are doing their darndest to
discourage people from voting, by closing polling locations and targeting
minorities and students with restrictive idea laws, and attacking our
voting rights, the surgical precision, even under minding the postal
service in the run up to an election that's going

(23:10):
to be dependent on mail in ballots, so people don't
just sit Trump. During Donald Trump's daily briefing, he addressed
the upcoming election and said this, I don't want to delay.
I want to have the election, but I also don't
want to have to wait for three months and then
find out that the ballots are all missing and the

(23:31):
election doesn't mean anything. That's what's going to happen soon.
That's common sense. Then everyone knows it. Stupid people may
not know it. If they do this, our country will
be a laughing stock all over the world because everyone
knows it doesn't work. So we're asking for a lot
of trouble. Do I want to see a day change now,
but I don't want to see a crooked election. This
election will be the most rigged election in history if

(23:52):
that happens soon. The most rigged election in history. It
was twenty sixteen, Okay, we had Russian interference and rampid
vote suppression. Twenty twenty. Who knows what tricks they have
up their sleeve. But anybody who thinks it's going to
be as simple as going to the polls and voting
out Donald Trump has not been paying attention. Everything Trump
was accused of in twenty sixteen, he's going to accuse
the Democrats of this year. The difference is Trump has

(24:14):
the power to challenge all election results, and he's got
the head of the d J. William Barr, and members
of the Supreme Court on the side. Not to mention,
the Constitution gives states nearly unlimited power to decide how
electords have chosen. The Republican control about thirty state legislators.
So all I'm simply saying is he's not leaving without
a fight, And don't be shocked if he wipes his
ass with the Constitution and figures out a way to
not leave it all, don't us. Yeah, yeah, it's definitely

(24:36):
gonna be a huge fight he wipes his ass. Okay,
send a Mantority leader. Mitch McConnell had this to say,
because he has no plans on changing the election date. Well,
never in the history of the country, through wars, depressions,
and the Civil War, have we ever not had a
federally schedule election on time. And we'll find a way

(24:59):
to do that again show remember third Yeah right, listen,
that's why Barot got the name names. Okay, who are
those in power? Say their names? You don't have time
to be vague, Mitch McConnell. That's a guy that's causing
the process of the voting, a voting not to be smooth.
All right. He's already blocked two election security bills. You
know why because he knows that they're probably going to
have help from a foreign country come twenty twenty. All right,

(25:21):
So you got a name names, Mitch McConnell, Donald Trump,
Like you speak on those in power, who are you know,
threatening our democracy? You gotta say their names. That's it.
Point them out. All right, well, let's talk about coronavirus
for a second here. Doctor Anthony Fauci has responded to
a claim from the head of Operational Warp Steep Speed.

(25:41):
That's the federal government's multibillion dollar effort to develop a
vaccine against coronavirus, and it seems they're very optimistic right
now that it's going to be happening soon. Doctor Fauci said,
we all hope it's going to be that way. When
they talk about the claim that there's a very optimistic
estimate there's a vaccine that could be ninety percent effective,
he said, when we look at the data from phase
one studies, it looks good because the vaccine vaccine induced

(26:04):
neutralizing antibodies and the recipients and that level was rather robust.
So they said, it looks good. So that's the first
good indication that gets us to be optimistic. But it's
only phase one, so let's remember that too. They said,
it's very hard to predict. That's why they're going to
be doing a trial right now. Would you do I
plan to get a vaccine when not right away? The

(26:26):
model is my mottel is you first? Yeah? Not right away?
Not see how it is for me come back and
tell local Charlotte what's happening. And that's how I want
to keep the kids at home. I ain't trying it first,
I like, you know, I'll see how it goes for
a little bit, and then if it works out pretty
good and people ain't got six tones and six six fingers,
then I try. I'll be over here with this. It's
at least about worries. I'll be over here with this

(26:47):
c moss in this vitamin. Uh, what's what's the vitamin?
The vitamin you like? D shut up? What's the vitamin
that keeps you a music? Help? Can't there? You go there?
I ain't have my jin over over this morning. My
brain as man. Shut up. And that's your front page news.

(27:11):
When we come back, Calum for your bones. Steve, Yeah,
Steves out to be joining us when we come back.
Don't move. It's to breakfast club. Go aboarding the breakfast club.
You're checking out the world's most dangerous morning. Morning everybody
in stej Envy, Angela Yee, Charlomagne, the guy. We are

(27:34):
the breakfast Club. We got a special guest on the
line right now, Steve Stout, Hey, what I see what's
going on doing. Blood's happy to be here. I hope
we come out of this better than we went into it.
And the NBA's back. That's good for your business. You
just did a deal with the good Well, sports in
general is good for my business. We work with the NBA,

(27:55):
the NFL the next You just want to get sports back.
But by the way, the entire advertising business, especially television,
is driven by sports. You know, live television ad spending
is you know, the most dominant spending and anything advertising
has released in television every with the Knicks by number one,

(28:18):
job helped rebrandom. I think the Knicks is one of
the greatest brand sports brands in the world. You know,
you think about the Yankees, the Cowboys, Manchester United, UM,
and the Knicks. That's how I feel about it. And
obviously we gotta work to do on the court, the
team and all that stuff. But from a brandom perspective,
I think there's so much you can do merchandising, just

(28:41):
making great advertising that gets people excited about this global brand.
That's that's my job. So how do you turn that around?
With everything that's happened with Spike Lee and Charles Oakley
and their comments about you know, some of their play
is it just seemed like the Knicks don't care about
the people. Like like, if you look at different organizations
and different teams, it seems like they care. It seems
like the Knicks is like one of those teams is like, yeah, whatever,

(29:03):
We're gonna make money regardless. You know what, I think
the owners misunderstood. I think James Doan is definitely misunderstood.
He certainly brash. It's all's openly. Thing was clearly a disaster.
Charles is a very different of mine, and that was terrible.
The Spike Lee thing seems to be, you know, a

(29:23):
matter of you know, a celebrity expecting certain privileges and
then when you don't get that privilege anymore, for whatever reason,
he start throwing a fit. That doesn't seem real. Did
you see Jordan Greer's comments in the Sporting News when
he said New York has always thrown out as a
potential landing spot for Markie free agents because of the
appeal of the city, the garden and the possibility of

(29:45):
leading a basement developed back to contended status. But none
of that matters if Dolan refuses to change his ways.
What were your thoughts on his comments. He has something
to say about you too. Yeah, I definitely see that,
and I think with having leon In who was the
new president of the Knick, Eleon Lowes West, Worldwide West,

(30:05):
and myself, the three of us, I think that we're
the best sort of team as it relates to being
able to speak to a free agent, our relationships with talent.
They've never had this level of talent that can go
out and pitch a free agent or convince a player.
Why in New York is great? Um, I understood the statement.

(30:25):
I don't agree with it, but I understand where it
came from. You guys also have any head coach? Right? Yeah,
they're announcing the new that hasn't I don't think that's
finally been officially announced, but there's certainly discussions where they're
going through a coaching a search. You know that same
writer Jordan Grier said Dolan's poor judgment Undercutch good decisions

(30:51):
like bringing you in and Leon Rose. Do you agree
with that? To Dolan make your job harder? No? I
think Dolan's brashy is a very strong point of view
on things, but he doesn't make it any harder. Not
to me, man. I like his very clear style, like
he makes a point and he is very loyal to

(31:12):
his perspective. You know, if you have a strong argument,
he listens. If you don't have a strong argument, you're
gonna get run over and make What did you think
of about the statement that he made and people were
criticizing him not putting out a statement and support a
Black Lives Matter at first, and the emails that were
circulating that ended up going public. What were your thoughts
on that and how that was handled. I think the

(31:34):
sensitivity around the beginning of the sort of reimmersion of
the Black Lives New movement after Floyd companies and I
get these calls all the time, they don't know what
to do. I kept on seeing all kinds of random
things from all kinds of different companies. You know, Bank
of Amerror puts a billion dollars towards urban communities, and
then like you hear that that it disappears are where

(31:57):
you don't hear the next step in this countless amount
of news and headlines about donating to the NAACP in
x y Z and I think that with the Knicks,
they fell victim to the same kind of sensitivity where
people were making these statements the employees wanted to hear something.
They weren't ready to make a fall victim to what

(32:17):
the employees wanted to hear immediately, and it became an
issue I had nevisue in my company, Like everybody ran
upon me talking about June teams. And the truth of
the matter is, I never heard of June two before
this year. And I know people who worked for me
for ten years who never observed it at all at
all that all of a sudden got pissed off that

(32:38):
we didn't observe it this year. And I'm like, well,
we never observed it before. What are you talking about?
Like I'm sensitive to the information, but like, let's not
all of a sudden a week before turn our world
upside down because we now have to respond publicly to
the fact that we're celebrating June teams when you didn't
even know about it last year. There was a lot

(32:59):
going on during that time, and I think it was
a learning experience to everybody. I mean, when I was,
you know, preparing to speak to you guys this morning,
I was like, you know, you guys have gone through
the roof. I couldn't be more proud of what each
and every one of you guys have done in the
last year. Um, it's obvious, Charlemagne, you has become a

(33:20):
household name. Your political journalism is absolutely relatable, and UH
has made a big difference in the way these these
candidates have to prepare for the smoke. Thank you. And Angela,
would you say the whole entanglement thing, you set that up,
you pre game that. I mean, just the fact you

(33:42):
guys are on top of it like that, and and
and and the syndication of the show. It's everywhere, by
the way, in Miami is good with everywhere it's crazy. Um.
And then there's the you know, the political climate. The
political climate right now is tense, and what's taking place
between Black Lives Matter and the peaceful protests and then

(34:03):
the anarchists, and how the media, both CNN and Fox
seems to be coupling them together. And by the time
election comes around, I don't know if people are going
to be able to understand the difference between Black Lives
Matter and anarchists and people who are doing using the
halo of a peaceful protest to do other some of

(34:24):
them criminal and some of them have nothing to do
with Black Lives Matter, but they got the shirt on. Yeah.
I want to talk about let's bring some of that up.
I want to talk about the media industry. Right, you
have a perspective about racism and media and how black
executives get stifled and advertising. Can we talk about that, Well,
the entire advertising business. It's supposed to be an industry

(34:46):
that is on the front edge of changing perception, understanding
consumer behavior. Beside, they're experts at it, and they use
that expert positioning to go around to all the brands
around the world and say that the books. But yet
when it comes down to understanding the perceptions of African
Americans or promoting African Americans, they have zero understanding of

(35:10):
any of that. There's a guy, you know, a guy
named John Wren who runs Omnicom doesn't give it. There's
a guy who runs IPG doesn't give These are holding companies,
holding companies that hold all the advertising agencies and their
public vehicles, and the CEOs don't care. And then they
have this other job, which I'm not really fond of.

(35:30):
The Chief Diversity Officer basically is essentially saying, well, if
we don't have what it is, we're not gonna be fair.
So let's put a person in there to at least
make it look like we give a shit, like there's
a black program out there, and let's bringing black people
through the special program. And if you're super talented, none
of your envy. You don't want to get a job
anywhere through a special program. You want to get a

(35:52):
job because you're a ship, not because you know. Light
skinning is a light skin program, you know, But that's
the kind of thing that happens in advertising and media overall.
I'm gonna change it. Um. I feel like that's my contribution.
All we got more with Steve Stout when we come back,
Don't moves to Breakfast Club. Good morning working on bj

(36:14):
Envy Angela Yee. Charlomagne, the guy we are to Breakfast
Club was still kicking it with Steve Stout. Ye. So, Steve,
you had both Nlie Chappa and Little Techa signed to
United Masters, and haven't they both gone on to sign
major label deals? Now? Yeah, how did you feel about that?
By the way, we're gonna launch that for a lot
of these artists. I mean, you know, we launched n L. E.

(36:34):
Chop as you guys were kind enough for them on
the show with Me, in which Charlomie made it very
clear he would not have been on the show without me.
I reminded that man it was I was sitting there
looking at him, going, damn that was that was a
right hand. But then we have and they they went,
they took money. Choppa got eight million dollars from one
of brothers. This kid was sixteen years old, put out

(36:56):
a record with us in January, and in July got
eight million dollars. I believe that the record companies overpaid
because they want to make sure that anything that successful
remains in the ecosystem. And at the same time, the
kid got eight million dollars. God bless him. He changed
his family's life. What was your conversation like to say, Okay,
I think you should you know, because obviously those two

(37:19):
artists went and got a nice big check. So if
they come to you for advice or did they come
to you for advice? And what did you say? Tchecher's
entire thing was his manager was like, look, this kid's
going to be a global superstar and we're gonna go
get a record deal at some point. But everything that
you're doing to support us, that was more of an
upfront conversation. I don't think it was the right decision,

(37:40):
but I expected it. The Chappel one was a little
bit more touchy because I personally invested in the kid
and they went and got paid eight million dollars and
the record company is a bidding war, so it led
to a lot of backdoor conversations, etc. A bunch of
lawyers trying to do sneaky because when there's eight million dollars,

(38:01):
there's a lot of guys with their hands in your pocket.
But I didn't here before. I'm a veteran at issue
like whatever. By the way, I ain't enjoyed your dialogue
with Smooth. That was crazy. Everybody I was in LA
I got. Jimmy told Dre Dre, I don't think he
got the first single on the not the Chronic, the

(38:25):
no talking about record Chronic. Two dollar one yeats is
the album we're still waiting for. So I'm there. Even
Jimmy tells Dre he don't think he got the first single,
and the album was done. The drakes of the album
is done, so Dre and I a cool and he
had like five beats. I took those five beats and

(38:46):
he let me bring him back to New York to
help pick the first single. Seem like me get somebody
to write it. I take the five beats and I
played it for Timberland. Timberland picked the instrumental for still
dr E like that was crazy. Then I played the
same five beats for Jay and Jake still dr Beat
and said that is it? And then I asked him

(39:07):
when you write it? And Jay was in the studio
and he wrote that song in an hour. And then
when we said when I sent it back to Dre,
I was flawed. That Snoop spit jay Z's huk. I
couldn't believe it. Jay couldn't believe it. We must have
played the song a hundred times, jay Z and I
bugging out that they were doing that part. He had

(39:29):
that line in there, he trying to be the king.
But the aces back, we didn't even know that they
did that. We knew Dre you could write to Dre,
but nobody knew that rappers was spitt and runs from
other rappers. So yeah, with did he and all those guys, Yeah,
but did he and Dre weren't rapping right? All right,

(39:50):
Foxy Brown, that's a good one, little kim Uh, those
are good ones, but there was an asterisk next to them.
I don't know. No one seemed a kid that jay
Z wrote Foxes Rumes. She wrote some of her rhymes,
so she wrote the I shot your remix and Affirmative Action,
and Jay wrote the album. I guess you're right, So,
I mean, I never thought about it like that. Maybe

(40:12):
you know there was some asterisk next to them, maybe
because they were women and that's what that's. Everybody was like,
it's cool if you write for a woman a girl,
but certainly we didn't think super was taken with jay
Z swamps up about that. I would love to hear
that version, if you ever find that version. I would
love to hear the version of Jay doing that rap.
The two things I'm looking for and I have them,

(40:34):
I just can't find them is that reference Day and
Jay the kids spitting the Benjamin H. Victory. Yeah. Now,
I know you're a Versus fan, and I know that
you're real cool with track Masters, you managed them at
one time that personal friends. I know you want the
track Masters to get into a versus battle. Who would

(40:56):
you would love to see the versus track Masters versus
in that battle? I was definitely wanted to see track
Masters versus Jermaine, Jermaine dupri and Jermaine that didn't want
to do it. He wants to battle Puffy and all that.
I think he just want to He just want to
fight the bigger guy that make it seem like he
was in it for a bit. He's not ready for
the Puff level. He knows that. I was very helpful

(41:17):
and Swiss and knowledge that. The idea of Rick ross
versus two Chains, I think that's going to be crazy crazy.
Do you think he's gonna win that? Wed Steve? Who's
gonna win that one? In your head? I think Rick
Ross has smashes. I think Rick Rossers has forty smashes
from his own joints. To like the stuff he was

(41:40):
doing with the Dream, the Meek Mill, the French Montana
and all those collaps he was doing. Then he got
his Drake collaps because jay Z songs. He got way
too much monsters. I can't wait to see it. I've
seen you in Dame Dash and inifty cent speaking. I've
seen that y'all cool, y'all squashed your beef right fifty
and I yeah, queens get the money fifty and I

(42:02):
I'll beef or whatever that was dissipated and uh damon
Josh and I, yeah, I didn't. If you get old man,
I'm I'm fifty man. I had termed fifty year body.
You don't see fifty year old's fighting. Man. We're gonna Fyoming.
You're gonna fly out to Wyoming next. I don't think so,
not yet. Um. First of all, it seems to be

(42:24):
a relevant See people are going out there and then
like see him and then they get filmed on Instagram
and posted about. To me, that's not what it's all.
I don't like that type of man's like. So I'm
not going there. I don't want to be part of that. Like,
I'll talk to him out. I would love to support him.
I've known for so many years, and I think he
needs friendship. You see Charlemagne's interview with him. He needs

(42:45):
friends around him when this happens. Part of it is
you lost your homeboys, or you need them more than
they're around, because you need somebody who's not afraid to
tell you to shut the stuck. I think we all
need that in our life. Yeah, what did you think
when you saw Dame in Bigs and all of them
together and Wyoman, it's great to see that, man, it's great.

(43:06):
I think all that stuff is good to see no
be people coming together. It makes what we've accomplished and
what we've done really important. And you can't dismiss it
when the people who've moved the culture stick together and
don't shout it and make it seem like the beef
is more important than what we did as a culture.

(43:27):
Because right now, what Damon said was right, there are
many many culture vultures out there. There are a lot
of people out there robbing our culture, appropriating it in advertising,
in fashion. I'm seeing it over and over and over again,
like it's not even disrespectful, but hip hop black people
is hot right now, and just seeing guys run around

(43:50):
appropriating like Gary VANDICEP. Gary beats guy does a podcast,
takes a bunch of pictures with black rappers and then
like runs around acting like he's a hip hop guy.
Or you literally said the word like he can hack
the culture. You can't hack our culture. You can't hack
everything that we've gone through. People died for this, and

(44:12):
like when I hear things like that, it bothers me.
I actually told him that you can't hack our culture
are you talking about? You say, well, I can send
you the cliff. Yeah. I like Gary though, I think
I think I think Gary. I think Gary means well,
he's well intended. But we're so hot right now. You
don't even realize that when you say something like hacking culture,

(44:34):
that you think about everything that everybody went through. You
think about Big getting shot in LA, and that's even
being out in LA at that time. You think about
the situations that each of one of you have been
in to get to where you are right now that
will help move hip hop culture forward. And then all
of a sudden people show up and go, I'm part
of this too. Well, you could visit it, but you're

(44:56):
not part of it, and don't appropriate it. We got
more with Steve s when we come back, don't move.
It's the Breakfast Club, Go Morning. Everybody is DJ Envy,
Angela Yee, Chalomagne, the guy we are the Breakfast Club
is still kicking it with Steve Stout Chalomagne. From an
advertising perspective, as much as people don't agree with Kanye's
political views, as much as people don't know if he's

(45:16):
mentally healthy or not. From a brand perspective. Corporations don't
be don't seem to be afraid of you at all. Yo.
That goes back to the going in the fridge. Companies
shoot first, ask questions later. Companies used to do business.
Remember when Reebok dropped Rick Ross, You remember, yeah, over
the Molly line. Yeah yeah. Meanwhile, they listened to all

(45:38):
his raps, wrote him a check, and then somebody in
the press wrote about the Molly line, and then they
fire him. But they knew that line existed. They heard yeah,
lines like that all the time. That's what they do.
When there's public pressure on them, then they get rid
of you. But until there's public pressure, they're cool with it.
So in the situation with just seeing with Kanye right

(46:01):
now the Gap Adidas, they're making money. They need it,
they need it, and until something somebody makes it a
big statement about it. But because ya did something that
was offensive, so offensive that the New York Times decided
to write that story, then they'll drop him. But until
it that stories written, they'll look the other way. They'll

(46:23):
let you think about Nick Cannon and Nick Cannon and
Viacom got too big. The problem got too big. Somebody
who wrote about Nick Cannon's anti Semitic statements. We can't
have that guy on the outstation. The CEO is gonna
find out get rid of them. You can't just say
some disrespectful and then go on the Internet and then
say I apologize, or my Instagram got hacked, my Twitter

(46:47):
got hot. They get the hell out of here. Stop lying.
Nick Cannon blew it. He had no business even talking.
What the hell was he even saying it? Didn't know
make any sense. Nick Cannon is a public and Nick
Cannon got a lot of business with Jewish people, and
for him to go and make a statement like that

(47:08):
while those are his partners, he was playing career suicide.
And you can't apologize for that. Like you can't just
say some crazy stuff about black folks and the next
day say I'm sorry, you're not having that, and oh,
white people do it. White people do it all the time.
But to your point, if you offend the people you're
working for, God bless you, good luck to you. I

(47:30):
don't think that's going in well. Yeah, by the way,
if Nick back the ownership, if Nick owned wilding out,
it'd be fine at least financially, would be Morley, I
don't agree with what he said, But he doesn't have
wilding out. He's he's an employee and so now he's
asked out. And it's unfortunate that he, uh dis late
in his career, screwed it up this bottley because it's very,

(47:51):
very hard to recover. I wish that, um, you know,
because you know, you look at like Senator Cotton this
week and Senator Cotton is like, you know, slavery wasn't
necessary evil and it's offensive if that is to black folks.
What punishment does he get? You know, what backlash does
he get? Like, I don't that's that's that's my only issue. No,
it's wrong, but you know what, it works, the racism

(48:13):
in this country. There are people who vote for him
who actually believe that. Yeah, so he definitely does appeal
to his audience or the audience that got him the
job in the beginning. There may be a lot of
black people who agree with what Nick Cannon says. I'm
not one of them, but there may be the problem
is those people don't don't buy them, right. I got

(48:34):
one question more question, Steve. I saw you on Bloomberg
TV and you said the pandemic will make a legacy
record labels and think of the past. I feel like
legacy everything is a thing of the past, and if
people don't let go of what was, they'll never embrace
what will be. What do you think, Yeah, well, the
pandemic is certainly the reset button. And you're seeing industries

(48:55):
look what we're doing. We're doing this from zoom. If
this works and your audience watch this and enjoys it
as much as me coming into your studio, why would
you ever want to go back to the studio again.
Why would you go back to the studio again? People
like it. It works, and I think you've seen that
in this format of talk shows. You've certainly you've seen
that in the work in the workplace, and businesses are

(49:17):
going they're figuring it out. We've become resourceful. And if
you are a business with big real estate holdings, or
you're a business that hasn't figured out how to adapt
to the new environment and waiting for things to go
back to where they were, then you're in big trouble.
I don't think things are going to go back to
the way they are. Work. You know, it doesn't take
long for things to become the new normal. You talk

(49:39):
about two years three years. If you're seventeen eighteen nineteen
and you go through those years and this is your reality,
why would you not think that this is normal? Yeah,
those two three years is how generations shift, if our
technology changes things. It's so I do believe that things
will not go back the way they were and by away.

(50:00):
And as it relates to this pandemic, I think we're
still in the first quarter. We're not half way home.
I don't think so. You guys see that late twenty
twenty two, and that's and that's if we get a
vaccine early next year. I think early twenty twenty three. Nah,
If we get a vaccine early next year's, people aren't
gonna want to get the vaccine at first. They're not
gonna feel comfortable getting it. But then it'll probably be

(50:21):
some other treatments that come along late twenty twenty two,
early twenty three, whether it's twenty late twenty one, or
it goes on the way to twenty two. You got
people who just started working, who started working like this,
and you'll be doing this show for another year like this.
If your fans and people watch the show enjoy it,
you certainly enjoy it. If you could just you probably

(50:42):
ain't got no bottoms one right now? You might be
doing this. We're just feeling I got I got my
biker showers, I'm about to go riding after this. I
got my biker show and so on though, But yeah,
are you comfortable? And if that's why it works, then
that's the way it works. Why would you want to
go back to the studio again? Now? I want to
be back in the studio. I'm not gonna lie. I
want to be I personally want to be back in

(51:03):
the studio because what you said it is very important
you said. Do people like it like this? I don't
know if people like the zoom interviews as much as
they like watching us in studio with a person having conversations, right,
I like that as well. And videos don't get as
many views. Videos video may do well, but not it's

(51:24):
a little bit. But guys, thanks again, thank you for
always having me. You get you get the videos are
not doing as good as they YouTube. Ain't got time.
I'll see you guys later, Steve, thank you for checking in, brother,

(51:45):
Thank you for having me. Um Yes, sir, and I
am super proud of everything that you're doing. We will
look up one day, and you will be bigger than
Howard Stern. I guarantee that. I know that, and I
can't wait for that day to happen because there will
be another feather in the of the dominance and the
importance of your pop culture. All right, take whatever checks

(52:06):
you throw our way, Steve People bet this ship shouldgether.
I'm in Blue Morning. Everybody is DJ Envy, Angela Yee,
Charlomagne the Gay. We are the breakfast club. Let's get
to the rooms. Let's talk Nicki Minaj. This is the
rule of report with Angela. Ye. All right, Well, looks

(52:30):
like Nicki Minaj and her now former hair stylist Arrogance,
Hey are having some issues. They've unfollowed each other on Instagram.
I know your guys might not be able to relate
to this, but our hair stylist makeup artists like you
have real relationships with those people because you spend a
lot of time with them. So a lot of times
hair stylist might you know, really blow up off of
working with a certain particular artist. You guys end up

(52:51):
being friends. It's like a therapy session when you're getting
your hair done, when you're getting your makeup done. Well,
let's talk about what happened between the two of them
and why they'm followed each other. Here's what Nicki Minaj
had to say on her Instagram Live for the last
few months. I told my hairstylenst that when the song
comes out, I want to redo the look. And then

(53:14):
he canceled on me forty eight hours before the shoot.
I said, well, could you overnight the wig then, and
you know, we could have someone just apply it and
you know, keep it smooth like that, and he said no,
And so with twenty four hours left, I had to
call somebody and thank god, someone came to do it.

(53:36):
Is this really a story, Nicki Minaj not speaking to
her air dresser, Is this really in your business? V mind?
Your business got nothing to do with you. And the
thing is, I mean, it was enough of a story
that she felt she had to address it right. And
then he responded. And then he responded and said I
did not cancel because she was saying that he canceled

(53:56):
on her at the last minute. He said, I had
to get my wisdom teeth pulled today July thirtieth, which
I made my appointment two weeks because I've been was
supposed to get it pulled for months now, and I
told her I'm gonna see if I can reschedule my appointment,
and I couldn't because the next date they had available
wasn't until the middle of August, So her team asked,
could I over not a wig? Nikki doesn't like wearing
no other wigs from no other companies except for one

(54:17):
company that barely communicates with me, so I can't make
a wig. And he just goes on to explain what
the problem was and how he feels like he's been loyal.
Then he said, turned down so many people in so
many opportunities from just being loyal and solid never again,
and that's because Nicki Minaj ended up using another stylist, Jonathan,
who also recently was going back and forth with Arrogante
as well. He said, one thing I hate is having

(54:38):
love for people who always turned their back on me.
That's my biggest problem. When I love people and it's genuine,
I go above and beyond. But I'm tired of people
playing with me on God Now I am. Jonathan, who
actually ended up doing Nicky's wig, posted Nikki and said,
when the King finally slays the Queen baby, I slayed
Nikki with the bun and chopstick and drop a strawberry
if I murdered this look and color. So Jonathan said,

(55:01):
stop venting and start praying. You don't need sympathy, you
need strength. I show people how to run a business,
how to continue to shry for greatness, not sitting your
ass or act like uh, you know so good or
or something. The grind don't stop and it only gets better.
You guys, get it all right? Between the stair stylists,
did we just report about Nicki Minaj and a hairstylis beefing? Yep? Okay,

(55:26):
that's the thing that I'm sure women care about. I'm
over here in minding my business. I was paying attention. Okay,
you know these are special relationships. All I know is
I saw Keish Cole on Shade Room say I can't
wait for you to come over here and do this, Bob.
That's what I knew it was. Listen, it's not easy
to find a great hairstylist, especially somebody who makes good wigs,

(55:47):
do the install and all of that. So I get it,
you know, And people have to be loyal too, Like
everybody's looking for loyalty with who you work with So
it was just a back and forth over that. Now
let's talk about marriage boot Camp. Y'all ain't watching that either,
but I keep telling you guys to watch it. We
discussed it with Snoop because Corrupt is on there. Uh Now,
Willie from day twenty six is on there with his

(56:07):
wife Shanda and admitted that he cheated. Listen to this.
How many women has Willie had affairs with? Twelve? Twelve?
Why do I say that? That's all platon? I'm sitting here,
I'm gonna deal with this. I would like to know
who all twelve of these bitches are. May they can
help me play the game. It's crazy because I'm not
a cheater, So it's crazy twelve you can, dumbass? Did

(56:34):
she just find that on the show or did she
go from beforehand and he were dealing with it? Will
think this is faar factor that god damn married like
that on TV to your wife. Yea, so they've been cheating,
and if you watched the show, he says that she
cheated on him as well, but I think it was

(56:54):
more of like a revenge thing. You know, they've discussed
this and they still haven't gotten over a lot of
the issues, and it seems like he still hasn't stopped cheating.
The two of them though really seem like they do
want to work out their problems. Is just a lot,
all right. I don't take back what I said. I
take I take back what I said because that might
be the safest place to tell your wife that you
cheated on her with twelve women. Is on TV for

(57:16):
all these witnesses to see. Even though she'll probably still
do you, she probably still do let me the safest place. Yeah,
and nothing for nothing though if he say twelve is
more than that? Um. But anyway, moving on, also boot camp,
we've been talking about this, right, So this clip was
circulating and this was Vado seemingly trying to attack to Harry,

(57:37):
and will replay that for you right here. This is
what happened. I look crazy to y'all. I look extrogressive
like no, no, no, no, sucking out like you look y'all?
Are you kidding me? Houses on fire Facebook, I'm going

(57:59):
in the county now. At the end of it, he
gets up and grabs her like by her collar, but
then doctor Ish comes over and they escort him out. Well,
if you watch the episode last night, you can see
that before all that happened, the two of them were
having a lot of friction and she actually ended up
throwing apples and hitting him in the head with these apples,
and it wasn't pretty. And so he posted on his

(58:22):
page after this aired yesterday, he said, nobody's a victim.
We both were wrong, doing me more because I'm a
man that tried to take the better route but couldn't.
Once it was no apology in continuous disrespect, I lost
it and went out like a straight sucker. I apologize
to all women once again, but ladies, please keep your
hands to yourselves as well. And then he posted a
video from a Thin Line between Love and Hate when

(58:43):
Martin Lawrence discussing how because he's a man, you know
the police don't take it seriously when a when a
woman attacks you, and so yeah, I didn't definitely should
have never. I didn't see it. I do agree everybody
should keep their hands today self, but you know that's
still not a valid excuse choke a woman out, Like
I understand self preservation. You can defend yourself against any

(59:04):
human and then the heat of the moment, yes you
can lose your cool, but jacking her up or putting
hands on her because she threw apples at you, Like, nah, man,
my ego, not that fragile king, like when when life
throws apples at you, make apple sauce. Matter of fact,
I don't care a fruit, vegetable or stone that you
turned it into something you can eat. And I will
say he knows he's wrong, that was wrong, but I

(59:24):
will also say that to her he shouldn't be throwing
apples and hitting people in the head with them either,
So they got to address both things, and it seems
like a toxic relationship like that should not continue. That's
kind of flirting though, right, what you mean now and
somebody throwing apples at you across you know, sheet him
in the head with apples him in the head, apple her, Yeah,

(59:44):
but I can't. Yeah, but that's not that's not a
valid excuse to choke a woman out. No, it's not.
I'm saying they felt, but they both need they both
are wrong too, Like he's definitely wrong, but she definitely
also shouldn't be doing that. I'm a fan of nobody
doing anything physical to each other and no putting your
hands on anyone. And as a woman, I also would
never hit anybody, throw anything at anybody, or none of
those things too. But what if we're in the kitchen

(01:00:06):
making an apple pie and I'm talking apps. That's something different.
But you're not beating it at my forehead, throwing it
to me and throwing it at me. It's two different things,
all right. What if we're making candied apples? Right, so
I'm throwing the apples at you because I want you
to who you want to throw your apples over? Who
you want to throw your your peach to? Huh, that's
what seems like. Who you want to throw your peach too.
You've been looking, I've been watching. Just got still turn around,

(01:00:31):
You'll get out of here. That is your rumor report. Man, Yo,
come on, yo, come on. I am happy you notice
you know things. It's the little things now? Who you giving?
We mean little as a producer named j W. Lucas
who needs to come to the front of the congregation.
We like to have a word. Man, this is a

(01:00:52):
teachable moment, j W. Who is that? What do you produce?
Never heard them tell you yesterday? I'll explaining. Okay, all right,
we'll get into that. Next is the breakfast locomot. It's
time for Donkey of the Day being dunky of the day,
a little bit of a dope the other day. Now

(01:01:19):
I've been called a lot of my twenty three years
that donkey of the day is a new wife. Dunkey
today for Friday, July thirty, first goes to a hip
hop music producer named j W. Lucas. I have never
heard of this individual in my life. Didn't know he
existed until yesterday. Envy, you ever heard him? No, I
have it, Angelie, you have heard him? Nope? Okay, but
he's produced for a little Oozy, Jack Harlow, the Baby

(01:01:40):
and Pop Smoke. So says the Shade Room and Genius.
I feel like I am giving this man what he
wants and what he seems. The one is at tension.
I don't know how or why you wake up and
go to your social media and open up your Twitter
and decide to tweet out something like this. This is
what j W. Lucas tweeted out. Why is the world
asking for justice for hashtag Brianna Taylor? Of course she

(01:02:02):
shouldn't have lost her life, but do you realize that
she was involved with multiple drug dealers who were using
her house as a trap spot. If you sign up
for that life, there are consequences. In tweet, he actually
posted that those words came out of his thumbs. First
of all, none of that is true. All right, none
of that is true. Let's just start there. None of
that is true. We should all know the story of

(01:02:23):
Brianna Taylor by now, if you don't, hear a quick recap.
Shortly after midnight on March thirteenth, Louisville police officers executing
a search warrant used the battering ram to enter the
apartment of twenty six year old Brianna Taylor. Contrary to J. W.
Lucas's dumbass tweet, she was not a trap queen. She
was an emergency room technician, all right. She was in
bed with her husband, I mean her boyfriend, Kenneth Walker, okay,

(01:02:45):
when they both heard the door get banged down. It
was a brief exchange, and Kenneth did what I believe
any human in America who owns a firearm would do
if someone broke into his house, and that's let the
hammer fly, all right. That's exactly what the right to
bear arms is all about. Okay. The Second Amendment is
the right for people to possess weapons for their own defense.
There is not a man, a woman or child in
a miracle who owns a gun who knows how to

(01:03:06):
fire a gun who would not have done the same thing.
And that's in a situation. Okay, can it fired? Police
fired back several shots, and poor Brianna Taylor was murdered. Now,
there were so many things wrong with this situation, but
the main problem was police had been investigating two men
who they believed was selling drugs out of a house
that was far from Miss Taylor's home. Okay, but the

(01:03:27):
judge had also signed the warrant allowing the police to
search Miss Taylor's residents because the police said they believed
that one of the two men had used her apartment
to receive packages. No drugs were found in the apartment, okay, none.
The police report contained multiple errors. They listed Brianna Taylor's
injuries as none, even though she had been shot eight times,

(01:03:48):
and they say they had not forced They did not
force their way into the apartment, though they used the
battering ram to break the door open, and police had
already located the main suspect in the invested by the
time they decided to run up in Brianna's apartment, so
they had who they were looking for already. Okay, the
moral of the story is J W. Lucas doesn't know

(01:04:08):
what the hell he's talking about, and only in America,
well a white man find a way to defend the
oppressor while making the oppressed a victim. Now. I saw
on Hollywood Unlocked and The Shade Room yesterday where one
of our fearless leaders, Queen to Mika Mallory dropped on
a clues buns for Tamika Mala speaking to j W. Lucas.
Some people said Tamika was wasting her time. I don't

(01:04:31):
think standing up for Brianna tayl or any black person
who has lost their life due to systemic racism is
a waste of time. I thought maybe this guy, j W.
Lucas would have come to his senses and let Tomka
talk some sensing to him after being corrected. But no,
let's listen. Extremely racist for a white man to try
to tell Black people what we are doing, where we

(01:04:52):
need to go, what our issues are. That's part of
the gaging institutional art. I should be. I should be
a leader in the Black Matter movement because I'm more
capable than you. Yes, I am. You know what, you
don't understand the nature of reality. All negative externalities must
be eliminated. The people that you do business with to

(01:05:12):
make a decision about whether or not what you're saying
and the propaganda and the lies that you're spreading is
something that they should continue to support. So what I
promise you is that you will have to deal with
me for the rest of your life because anybody you
do business with, I'm gonna show up to make sure
that they know that you are a racist and that's

(01:05:33):
your rhetoric and the tone that you're using is extremely dangerous,
and that you disrespected the life of a young twenty
six never woman. Never. I will not accept that you're
gonna give about decreasing problem to me, because don't you
care about getting your own political game, the white privilege

(01:05:53):
losing out of his purse right. First of all, people
really need to watch their tone when it comes to
talking to queens like Tamika Mallory. Second of all, for
him to say he can lead the movement better than
to Mika, what do you even say to that? Like,
what's your response? Why do you even dignify that with
a response Why does he feel comfortable talking like that

(01:06:14):
and saying he could lead the movement better than to Mika.
You know why, because he's a white man talking to
a black person, especially a black woman. So it's a
level of superiority and privilege that just comes with that.
All right, sexism, racism, we already know what it is. Now.
Keep in mind he's a hip hop producer, so he
was also on last night talking hip hop. Listen to

(01:06:35):
what this man said about our culture. You're calling me
when I am telling you that I bring more to
your pop culture than anyone in it. Period. He does
more for hip hop than anyone in it. That's crazy.
Never heard you, never heard of? You tell yesterday? Okay,
the call Cassidy, the unmitigated ghostly pale gall of this

(01:06:56):
human You know, j W. Feel how you want to feel,
Say what you want to say. It's a America. You
have that right, do your thing, but there has to
be consequences and repercussions for people who talk like this.
So you can have freedom of speech, but you cannot
be free of the consequences of said speech. And this
is why we need our own version of like the
Southern Poverty Law Center or the ADL, these organizations that

(01:07:19):
fight against bigotry and racism. When someone does it, says
something that's offensive, you know, to our culture, hip hop, blackness,
we should be organized or have an organization that lets
people know this ain't welcome. Okay, we see it happen
to people all the time, but for some reason, when
it comes to hip hop and blackness, people are just
allowed to continuously disrespect us and nobody says anything. All right,

(01:07:43):
nothing happens. Case in point. As I've said before, we
can't even get the cops who kill us fires. We
can't even get people canceled when they kill us. So
of course someone like J. W. Lucas feels comfortable disrespecting
us on all levels while making money in and off
our culture. Jay Lucas, today is a nice day. I

(01:08:06):
don't know where you're located in the world, but it's
it's summertime. I know you're in America. It's summertime, and
it's nice out. So at some point today I want
you to go outside barefoot, if you can, put your
feet in the ground. Okay, get grounded, all right, take
a few deep ocean breaths, make sure your inhales and
exhales are long, full and deep. After you do that,

(01:08:27):
look up, Look up, look up, look up. There as
a star at the center of the solar system. It's
the foundation of the solar system. It's a nearly perfect
spear of hot plasma. I want you to look at it,
feel the raised from it. Let it shine on your
white skin, and say to yourself, sun, stream it Sun,
and then spell it to yourself as you and give

(01:08:50):
me your ass, give me a yo, give me your
n and let it be a reminder to you that
sun means shut up. That's what you have to do
when you feel like tweeting something stupid or getting on
Live and saying something stupid. Just go outside and get
some sun and remind yourself that shut up. And yes,

(01:09:12):
white folks can be n words too. Please let him
give J. W. Lucas the biggest he had. He ha
he ha. He's stupid. Mother, far are you dumb? All right?
M I'm surprised at you, brother? Who you This is
usually where we do a petty party or something like that.
You ain't gonna do that today. Oh, do some clown emojs?

(01:09:34):
You know, if you know, you know we can do
clown emojis. But what we need to do is go
in his comments j W Lucas seven oh two. All right,
j W Lucas seven oh two, and put a bunch
of sons in his comments all right, and say shut
up okay, and let's see. Let's see if he's stupid enough.

(01:09:55):
They get on Live later and say, I got a
bunch of people telling me to shut up my Let's
see what happens. Guys, this is a good social experiment.
Let's see how far he's willing to take this. Okay,
go to his comments. His instagram is j W Lucas
j W l uc A s seven h two. Oh
he must be in Vegas, and put a bunch of sons.

(01:10:17):
Just put the sun in his comments with the phrase
shut up okay, okay, all right, here we go. All
right now, thank you for that donkey of today. Now,
when we come back, Angela Rye will be joining us.
We'll kick it with Angela ry talked about everything that's
going on to don't move. It's the breakfast club. Good morning,
the breakfast Club morning. Everybody is ch envy, Angela Yee, Charlomagne, nigab.

(01:10:45):
We are the breakfast Club. We got a special guest
in the building. Friend to the room, Miss Angela Rye. Welcome.
Thank you so much. It's good to be with you all.
It's been a little while. Yeah, how you holding up
before we start? How's the pandemic treating you? Where you at?
I'm in la Um. It has been really good. I
feel like I've learned a lot about myself and um,

(01:11:09):
probably most importantly, I have really taken the time to
hone my craft, to get better at some things, um,
and to figure out some things that I need to
let go. But just constantly trying to move it. Girl,
just like y'all, that's beautiful. So you like what you see?
You like what you see when you're looking in the mirror.
What is that? What move was that? But Angela, we

(01:11:32):
wanted to We wanted to talk to you in particular
today about John Lewis and to get your thoughts on
the funeral was yesterday, So we just wanted to hear
from you as someone who personally knew him, worked with him,
supported him, he supported you as well. Yes, Um. At first,
I want to tell you all that when I think
of Congressman Lewis, I just think of someone who is

(01:11:54):
truly the People's Camp. He laying stayed in the Alabama
State Capital as the first black person to ever do
that in the last person who lands state in the
Alabama State Capital was George Wallace, so poetic justice there
he land state in the United States Capitol. His wife
preceded him in best Lillian, who also worked with him

(01:12:16):
and one of his was one of his biggest champions.
And he has a son, John Miles Lewis, who he
leaves behind. But I think was important for people to
know is so much of the coverage that we've seen
has been las focused on John Lewis with that Crinch
Coudon and that backpack walking across the Edm and Pettish Bridge.
But so often you don't hear about what happened when

(01:12:40):
John Lewis crossed that bridge, and the story career he
had after that. He I would argue, was not just
the conscience of the Congress, but the very heartbeat and
the conscience of this country. His kindness was in a facade.
You heard his staff talk about it at that funeral yesterday.
He was the exact same person in his professional and

(01:13:01):
personal life, and so often he's known as the boy
from Troy which is person to the nickname that Doctor
King gave him. But beyond that, he went on to
serve seventeen consecutive terms in Congress, but that was not
before he lost his first congressional race. Went on to
become a member of the Atlanta City Council, and he

(01:13:23):
also went on to be appointed by President Carter to
serve over something called Action, which was a volunteer organization
under Jimmy Carter. He had three presidents pay tribute to
him at his funeral yesterday, and of course Barack Obama
eulogized him and said some very important things that she's
some very important challenges. In addition to President Obama, you

(01:13:45):
have fifty members of the House that are presentatives to
food for the food down for the funeral. In addition
to Senator Corps Booker Kamala Harris. That was the sixth
day of services. So that tells you the powerful nature
of John Lewis. Don't know him, read about him, watch
the documentary Good Trouble about Him. Phenomenal And in addition

(01:14:06):
to that, has the foresight to public in the New
York Times yesterday and OpEd And one of the things
that really stood out to me in the OpEd yesterday
said ordinary people with extraordinary vision can redeem the soul
of America by getting in what I call good trouble,
necessary trouble. Voting and participating in the democratic process are key.

(01:14:28):
The vote is the most powerful non violent change agent
you have in a democratic society. You must use it
because it is not hearing feed. You can lose it.
So so often we talk about voter suppression, We talk
about all of the many ways in which our votes
are almost denied. Us In Barack Obama yesterday and he's

(01:14:48):
u literally told us that we shouldn't just be pushing
for what has now been changed to the John Robert
Lewis Voting Rights Act. We should be pushing for everything
beyond that automatic registration, many of the things that people
have pushed for some time. But Republicans have been pushing
for symbolism over substance and have not considered that bill

(01:15:11):
in more than two hundred and ninety days. Expound what
that bill is, So the bill all it does, if
and you all may remember, in twenty thirteen, there was
a Supreme Court decision called Shelby Versus Holder, and then
Shelby Versus Holder. The Supreme Court decided to gut section
five of the Voting Rights back. That section requires states

(01:15:35):
to be pre cleared if they had cattered in practice
of discrimination in their voting processes. That decision gutted that,
which means those states and those areas no longer had
to get pre clearance. That is the teeth and the
lynchpin of the Voting Rights Bill. So now you have
this empty symbolic shell. And they said in the decision,

(01:15:55):
we're requiring Congress to go back and to fix this.
So since twenty thirteen, Congress has not been able or
has decided not to fix it. When the Democrats took
over last year in twenty nineteen, one of the first
things they did was consider Hr four. Hr four was
the Voting Rights Advancement Act, to finally give the Voting

(01:16:18):
Rights Act of nineteen sixty five it's powerback. John Lewis
as it should have been, presiding over the House floor
that day, and of course that bill passed the House.
They've changed the bill main title by a unanimous content
on the House floor this past Monday. However, it still
has not been taken up in the Senate, where, of
course you know that the majority leaders Republican Mitch McConnell.

(01:16:41):
So basically it keeps races white people from cheating during elections. Yeah, theoretically,
And I think that the challenge we all see and
we've talked about honestly on this show since twenty sixteen.
Ver since the twenty sixteen elections, they found new ways
to cheat, and we haven't found new ways to protect
our votes because the basic ones have not yet work.
You know what this election that's coming up. What are

(01:17:03):
your thoughts on Joe Biden and how are you feeling
about Joe Biden right now? Well, I think the good
news is that you don't make decisions about our next
steps on our feelings. I think the bad news is
I feel like everybody else, It's like miss so what
I'm waiting for is I shouldn't say everybody else a
lot of people. What I feel like is I'm excited

(01:17:25):
about who he will pick as his vice president, Joe
pick as his running mate. I'm excited about them moving
forward with a more robust agenda that meets the needs
of the things that we've talked about for so long.
I'm excited about getting this man that is sitting there
right now, envy that you and I have personally been
trying to teach person got in. I'm ready to getting

(01:17:48):
him out. And I think that you know, it's just
like what John Lewis said in that op ed, our
vote is not guaranteed. And you solid Donald Trump just
tweeting the other day right that he will do whatever
it takes. He's talking about trying to delay the election,
which he does not have the power to do. Let
the record show your brother told you that he ain't
leaving the goddamn White House. I told you that, I

(01:18:09):
told you he was gonna did not say he was
going to attempt to do something like this in the
name of the Lord Jesus. I reviewed that in you.
But I told you he's I told you he crazy
enough to try it. We got well, hold on, hold on, Rod,
we got more with Angela. Right when we come back,
she's here eight hundred five eight five one on five one.

(01:18:30):
Don't move. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning, DJ Envy
Angela yee. Charlomagne, the guy we are the Breakfast Club
was still kicking it with Angela Ray Now right before
we left, Charlomagne and said, he told you that that
man is not leaving the White House. He's gonna attempt
to not leave the White House. He might not want to,
but we need to help him see the door. Yeah,
but let's score him out now. Angela Earlier, you were

(01:18:52):
talking about being excited about who the vice presidential pick
is going to be. So who would you be really
excited about if they said, Okay, Joe Biden, because he's
going to announce it very soon. So who do you
think it will be and who are you excited the
most excited for. I'm the most excited about what we
wrote in our offense. Several months ago, A group of

(01:19:12):
black women, including our good sister Amanda Seals and others,
LaCosta Brown and we see A Garza so many others
wrote about this very issue and we said that Joe
Biden needs to pick a black woman. My line about
this has been that if Jesus were black women, Joe
Biden is Lazarus, and we say a Lazarus come forth

(01:19:34):
right like that is my line about this, because it's
just we resurrected a dead campaign. Also, I don't know
why you think that's funny. I'm being so serious. Been
in Mississippi and other states where black people have the
power of the vote and exercised it right. And so
to that end, in a campaign where they were like,

(01:19:56):
it's all but dead, campaign staffords were packing up, they're back.
We resurrected it. So the least he could do right
is ensure that the people who have the fortitude and
the ability and the strategic insight to resurrect the campaign
are also a key part of his administration going forward.
I think that he should do that in the cabinet
as well. But will we have control over right in

(01:20:17):
this moment? Who's being vetted right in this moment our
vice presidential candidates. They've listed a number, as you all know,
of black women who could be considered. And I think
that the most important thing is that he sees that
all those black women are dope. Who all got Who
are you guys thinking? You know, I'm rocking with Senator
Kamala Harris. He's supposed to pick tomorrow. Tomorrow, He's going

(01:20:38):
nounce tomorrow. I don't know with Kamala Harris too. What
about you? Ye? I think there's four or five people
that I would be happy about it. I think Kamala Harris, though,
probably has the best shot because of the familiarity that
people have with her and the support that she's already
had and her track record as well. So but I
like Valdemic. Yeah val didn't he from from Florida who

(01:21:01):
was all fun and teaching manager as you all know.
And then I know you all we sitting down tune
with UM congress Member Karen Bass, who's also the chair
of the Congressional Black Cocket. She of course is on
that shortlist as well as brilliant. Was the first speaker
of the California State Assembly, the first black woman speaker
of the California State Assembly. So she made history and

(01:21:22):
is used to it. But there's some incredible women on
the list. And of course Kamala Harris's advantage is that
she was in the Democratic primary and as a former prosecutor,
told definitely tell this president, the current sitting president, what
the law is all about because apparently he missed that memo.
You got a special edition of the on one podcast

(01:21:43):
dropping what this weekend. Yeah, it should be out Sunday,
so I hope you all will to check it out.
I'm really really excited about it. Leonard, you would make
fun of me. I definitely cried, but it was it
was good and I'm so that I can honor him
and thank you brother, because you gave me the idea
to do something focusing on the legislative career because we
haven't seen enough about that. We appreciate you for checking

(01:22:07):
in four times this week. You're giving me credit for something.
Whooo grateful winner. No, I'm going to when I get
my winds, I'm gonna spiked the football today. NBA year
is said. To see you guys, and good to see you.

(01:22:28):
All right, Well it's Angela Ry. It's the Breakfast Club.
Good morning. Now you got rumors on the way, yes,
and we are going to talk about Tamar Braxton. She
has released her first statement since getting out of the hospital.
All right, we'll get into that next. It's the Breakfast Club.
Good morning, the Breakfast Club. It's about this report Angela

(01:22:55):
on the Breakfast Club. Well, as you know, our prayers
are with Tamar Braxton. July sixteenth, she did try to
end her life and now she has written an open
letter for people to know exactly what was going on.
She said, first and foremost, thank you to each and
every individual who has prayed for me, thought of me,
sent me their love and has showered me with their support.
In this present moment, is my only responsibility to be

(01:23:16):
real with myself and to be real with the ones
who truly love me and care for my healing. She said,
over the past eleven years, they were promises made to
protect and portray my story with the authenticity and honesty
I gave. I was betrayed, taking advantage of over worked
and underpaid. I wrote a letter over two months ago
asking to be freed from what I believed was excessive
and unfair. I explained in personal detail the demise I

(01:23:39):
was experiencing, my cry for help when totally ignored. However,
the demands persisted. It was my spirit and my soul
that was tainted the most. And she goes on to
say the way that she was portrayed on television that
mattered to her. She said, it was seeing the slow
death of the woman I became that discouraged my will
to fight. I felt like I was no longer living.
I was this thing for the purpose of a corporation's

(01:24:01):
gain and ratings, and that killed me. She said. Mental
illness is real. We must normalize, acknowledging it and stop
associating it with shame and humiliation. The pain that I
have experienced over the past eleven years has slowly ate
away at my spirit and my mental So she did
say it is our prayers that have pushed her to
rise above her own personal demise and reality TV personalities

(01:24:23):
have no union, no code of protection, no formal representation
that protects our labor or writes our voices. They promise
us opportunity, but produce exploitation. She also talks about her
new show, and basically she wanted to make sure that
she wasn't portrayed as the angry black woman. She also
didn't like the way that her boyfriend was portrayed on
the show when she saw the first episode. I want

(01:24:45):
to send nothing but positive energy, love and light, Tamar.
And you know, for everybody out there that says all
Charlomagne does is talk about mental health, this is exactly why,
you know, This is exactly why I talk about therapy
all the damn time, and why I always talk about
investing in your mental wealth. It's a very dark time
and people are dealing with anxiety, depression, all types of things, man,
and it's very very hard to stay stable out here

(01:25:07):
in these screech and sometimes you do think about making
a permanent decision based off temporary feelings, but that is
exactly what those feelings are temporary. So absolutely nothing but
positive energy, love and like the Tamar and anybody that's
going through anything during these um these dark times. I
lost two friends to suicide and the month of June,
so and you know what too, And and also we

(01:25:28):
also got to discuss ownership and make sure that we
own our own and we can go to platforms where
they don't try to exploit us to make money. Obviously
she wanted to look a certain way, and the TV
program was thinking about ratings, and we got to be
in a position where we'd be like, no, I'm the producer,
I'm an executive producer. This is a safe platform for me.
You know what I mean? That's crazy that lack of
ownership can really drive you crazy, because that's kind of like,

(01:25:50):
you know, that's that's that's that's like the rootest systemic
racism and white supremacy. You know, the fact that we
don't have the control we want, that we don't have
the freedom we want, that we don't have the power
we want, that can drive you crazy. All right now,
Rihanna is doing interviews and she knows people really, really
really want some new music. Well, here's what she told

(01:26:11):
entertainment tonight. I'm always working on music and when I'm
ready to put it out in the way that I
feel bit, it's gonna come out and you're not gonna
be disappointed when it happens. It's gonna be worth it.
I'm not just gonna put it out just because people
are waiting, like it's taking this long. I'm gonna make
it worth it. And you know, she's doing press for

(01:26:31):
her new skincare line, Fancy Skin, that people went crazy
for when they had the pre orders, everything sold out
like immediately online. So I mean, Rihanna, it's hard because
like she's doing so great with everything else outside of music,
but you know, we're all thirsty for some Rihanna music now.
She also did an interview where you said, what Rihanna

(01:26:52):
better than met me? When my company is worth a
half of Billy can kiss my ass on music, you
might not even see me, I'm telling you right now,
but I'm sure she cares about her fans. At the
same time, I'm sure she cares, and I'm sure she
loves music, and I'm sure she loves music. That was
her first love so video when you were five hundred's

(01:27:13):
like I go to studio, going another vacation. That's where
you really could do what you want though, and be
like you know whatever, all right. Nesta did an interview
with Access Hollywood, and here's what she had to say
about how she felt like a clown and her met
Gallet dress back in twenty fifteen. It was an iconic dress.
There was so many memes created from it. She always
looks amazing. We cares so much about what Rihanna wears

(01:27:34):
because it seems like she never gets it wrong. But
here's what she said about how she felt that night.
All the choreography of getting in the car and getting out,
like we had a choreographic who sits at the door,
Where does the cook go? Where do I sit? I
remember being so scared to get out of that car
because I felt like I'm I'm doing too much. I

(01:27:55):
was driving past her Rur Carpett and I was just
seeing like gowns and I was like, oh my god,
I'm a clown layer. People are gonna laugh at me,
like this is like too much, That's crazy because you
would never think that, right, you would think that she
ate that she got up there here I Am. Everybody
was talking about it. She went viral, but she would
never think she was insecure about her outfit, all right,

Black Is King has dropped on Disney Plus, so that
is available right now. I'm going upstairs to watch that

(01:32:33):
right now. I'm sure it's family friendly. All my daughters
are bright eyed and bushytailed, the twelve year old, the
four year old, and the one year old. So I'm
taking my black ass upstairs to watch Black Is King
on Disney Plus with my three beautiful black princessors are
right now. What is that an expression to come from
bright eyed and bushytailed? I don't know, rabbits bunnies. Oh

(01:32:55):
is that where it comes from. I have no idea,
to be honest with you, I don't even know why
I thought about that. Just now, let's see, let's see
bright eyed. Let's let's google bright eyed and bushey tailed,
or do I want to be bushy tailed? Bright Eyed
supposedly comes from the late fifteen hundreds, while bushytailed is
said to have held from eighteen sixty five to eighteen seventy,

(01:33:17):
though no direct sources clear for either of them. They
were seen together for the first time in talking about
a squirrel, which did in fact have bright eyes and
a bushey tail. So I guess I'm just a squirrel
trying to get a night this morning. We believe that.
I definitely believe that. That's how I got three daughters.
All right? But yeah, so Black is King, as you know,

(01:33:39):
