He's amby Cholomagne. The guide piece to the planet is Friday, Toronto. What uph Your mic sounds like trash this morning? Oh? I thought that was yours. No, that's yours. You sound like you're in a bathroom taking the number two and you

got to do it. Clause. I don't know what's going on. I know you don't sound echoe to nobody else. Yeah, it sounds echoe, sound a little crazy echoe. Yeah, I don't know what I can do about that on this line, uh Friday morning. I do know that I'm tired of being, uh you know, home on zoom during the breakfast club. I'd like to be in the studios and I don't have to worry about stuff like that. But you know, we're about a month and a half away from that. Maybe you might not be back. We might have been

back to twenty twenty one. Yeah, I don't. I don't think it's gonna happen. I've seen I don't know if this is is, if this is true or not, but they said the Viacom won't be back into January, yeah, next year. Yep. I did read that somewhere. I'm not sure, though, I'm sure. I'm sure. I'm sure if that's what they put out, I'm sure that's what it is. Yeah. So if they're taking those necess every steps, I see, probably I heart doing the same thing, which I hate, but

I mean it is protocol. I guess they're trying to make sure everybody is safe. I mean yesterday, Yeah, I guess you're never truly gonna feel safe until there as a vaccine though, right, like, that's that's the only time people are gonna actually feel comfortable with getting back to some sense of normalcy, even though with normal will never be the same again. Whatever we thought was normal in America, that's long gone. Yeah it is, but you know the same.

The thing with the vaccine is, you know, when the vaccine comes out there, are you the first people to try? Are you first people to say, am I giving my kids the vaccine? Or you say, you know what, I'm gonna wait, I'm gonna see with some of these side effects what happened though, you know what I mean. So

it's a difficult one. And also I know it's difficult for a lot of people because a lot of people are gonna be like effic because a lot of their deferments are over as a last month, you know, so people are gonna have to start paying their mortgages and paying telephone bills and car bills and all these other bills. The deferment part is up. And you know, I don't know if if companies are allowing people to say, you know what, will give you a little more because the

companies got to pay their bills too. So it's gonna be a difficult one, man, But we can make it. Man. We can do this. Man. We don't have no choice. The only other option is um you know, to not be here is deaf and I want to continue to breathe. So we ain't got no choice. Okay, no choice. Well, we got a couple of people stopping through today. First and foremost friend to the room, Amanda's Seals will be joining us this morning. Seals. I love Amanda Seals. That's

You know she's still doing smart, funny in black and just just just all in, all around renaissance woman, entrepreneur. Yeah. And you know the crazy thing with Amanda is I've seen her grind Like we kind of came up around the same time when I started radio. I first started serious and she first started

and she started on MTV. Then I started on MTV and we kind of came up together. And just to see her hustle because she always grinded. I know a lot of people might not like her. It's it's some people love us, some people hate her. But you gotta respect the amount of work that she put it in this industry and continues to put in. You got to salute to her. Well, let's not forget she was acting before all that too. Yeah, my brother, she didn't. She was an artist. She's still an artist, but she was

a performing artist, traveling, she did a lot. So we'll talk to a man the sales, and also Jade Simmons, Jay Simmons. J Simmons is interesting. Jay Simmons is interesting because she's from the eight four three Chalton, South Carolina, but she's running for president, and she's running for president as an independent, you know, and I just think she has some some very interesting things to say, some very insightful, thoughtful things to say. So yes, I want to introduce

you to miss j Simmons this morning. And she's a classically trained pianists. Okay, all right, So they're a very interesting person hailing from the eight four and three chart, South Carolina. All right, So we'll talk to both of them this morning. And I got a question. I want to know if Kanye is still running. I heard he's not, and then I heard he is. But I'm sure ye had give us updates in the rumors. But now let's get the show cracking. You asked me, I'm the one

that's gonna be Secretary of State. Oh that's right, you all gonna be secretary of state? Asked me what our campaign looks like? Secretary Defense over there? All right, well, let's get into the joints. Calip belives two new records, both features Drake's a shout out to everybody in Toronto. I haven't heard him yet, so let's get him on. Let's listen. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning morning. Everybody is DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlomagne, the guy we are

the Breakfast Club. That was Drake, I should say Calid feature in Drake. It was called pop Star. He has another one that they released. We're gonna play in a little bit as well. But let's get in some front page news where were starting you. The Governor Georgia Brian camp is suing the Atlanta Atlanta City Council and Mayor Keisha Lands Bottoms. That's because they are requiring that you wear face masks in public places. As the numbers of

Corona virus cases are skyrocketing across the nation. So the governor says no face masks, but the mayor in Atlanta is saying, yes, you have to wear a face mask. Here is what Keisha Lance Bottoms have to say. We have given very clear, data driven metrics and advice to businesses in the city of Atlanta. I believe that our city mask ordinance, and I believe those across the state are defensible. And it is not just my posture but the posture of many other mayors across the state that

our policies are enforceable, and they stand. Yeah, that's insane that the governor is suing the mayor, and nor do I know how that works. I'm meant to ask some of my political smart friends yesterday, but I forgot. I just don't know who has the power in that situation. The mayor of the governor, I don't know. Now. Now My question was, so they soon any you have to when you leave the house wear a mask. If not, you get a ticket in public in public places, okay,

public places? Okay, all right, right, So now the lawsuit according to what campus saying lead you know that he filed, he said, leads to State of Georgia. And its fight against the worldwide novel coronavirus. And he has the power to suspend municipal orders that are contradictory to any state law or to his executive orders, he said. As the mayor of the City of Atlanta, Mayor Bottoms does not have the legal authority to modify, change, or ignore Governor

camp To executive orders. So the lawsuit is on behalf of the Atlanta business owners and their hard working employees who are struggling to survive during these difficult times. And yeah, but the thing is, you can still go out. You just have to wear a face covering. Yeah, I really want to know why y'all don't want to wear a mask. If it prevents you from getting sick, if it prevents

you from getting somebody else sick. If they're saying this is one of the main, you know, ways to help flatten the curve and stop the transmission to this disease, why wouldn't you just simply want to put on a mask. Don't you care about yours even if you don't care about your fellow man, don't you care about yourself and the people in your house? Yeah, no, it makes sense.

You definitely should wear a mask, and I could see people having problems if people say, like, hey, I go running, I don't want to wear a mask, like I get it. Or I do exercise and I don't want to mask. But if you're out in public, yes you should absolutely have a mask on. Man, my daughter, my daughter, and the back back doing chier leading practice and they wear a mask at chier leading practice, which social distances though, you know, put you put your mask on. And by

the way, they need to make the magamask. The magamask is what's gonna make people wear Okay, do something that's more of their speed. All right, wear the red magamask at And a lot of stories are requiring that people wear a mask. So you can do that if you own a business, because that's not a public place. So they're taking magas into their own hands. And like Starbucks, you know they're training their employees had to deal with

customers who don't have a mask on. So that's there's different scenarios that they're actually giving to their employees so that you know how to deal with it. Also, you know how stupid you have to be to be in the KKK. But then don't want to wear a mask. You out in about that. That's just because you're not used to wear a mask in public. That's the problem. All right, all right, well, lat is your front page news. Get it off your chest eight hundred five eight five

one oh five one. If you need to vent, hit us up right now. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning, the Breakfast Club. Wake up, wake up, wake y'all, ask your time to get it off your chest, your man or black. We want to hear from you on the Breakfast Club. Hello. Who's this? Good morning? This is Chris. How are you this morning? Breakfast Club? Chris, good morning, Get it off your chest, bubble and mama, way to work. Man.

I just I just want to ask this question. I just need the people to call in and tell me why they against this mask. They why they don't wear a mask. Ask your question, and I say, you can't go out. This ain't When you do go out wear a mask. You can work, you can do everything. Why would you want them wear a mask in a public place? I mean, you go on the side of the storecast station. Why would you want to wea I just want to

know I'm with you. I don't get it. You gotta you gotta say to them, you know what, you must be secretly in the KKK because you're not used to wearing the mask in public. I mean I don't I don't know what it is, man, I mean it if it's helping to save lives, it's helping us, it's helping You're not just wearing the seed. That's like, it's a no brainer. I don't get it either. Yeah, don't mean saying I don't understand a lot about twenty twenty, Like

I'm so confused, Thank you? Brother? Hello, who's this? What's going on? This problem on Atlanta? What's up? What's happening? I just wanted to touch bases on the topic with Atlanta and the mayor and the governor. Uh huh okay, Yeah, So I just really want to say, like a lot of people that a's uh not wearing masks or really don't want to enforce the mask deal in Atlanta. Is because maryor Boda has been enforced in the mask deal

for so long and her whole household has COVID. So oh so they saying that what they saying, what does it matter if you wear a mask, you might can catch it anywhere, right, you're going to get it anywhere stupid so much. Yeah, but if you wear masks, it doesn't mean you won't catch it. That means you're likely lesly less likely to catch it. It doesn't mean you want tread or spread it to someone else, to somebody else.

Absolutely as just like saying the majority of people wear condoms with people still catching lamydia, are still catching herpes or whatever, still having a baby, because all it takes is one person in your household to get it. And what probably happened in her household is one person was exposed and came home and gave it to everyone else, not that the whole family was out and got it. But think about this, though, our body no bacteria, right, so if we're covering up all day long, we can't

get bad bacteria. You're not covering up all day long. Only when you're in public. Ain't gonna cover up when you're walking around. You ain't got to cover up when you're driving, You ain't got to cover up in your house. But if you're in a public place with people that you don't know what they've been, it's best that you

cover up. Bro. I mean, you do see the numbers ride you do you do see the numbers rising as things are opening up, right, and you would want to take every precaution possible to protect yourself and other people. So let's not say me. Let's say the gas station workers that work at race Track and Quick Trip. They work ten hours ship and they have to have a mask on all day. So what's the difference then, Now, I don't know if they have to have a mask on all day they need to put a mask on

somebody who walks in the store when somebody pulls up. Yeah, it's during the ship and they don't get break that Racetrack and Quick Trip so they don't even get to go eat or go to the bathroom. They get lunch and they get bathroom, they can walk outside. Yeah, stop stop making excuses. Okay, all right, stop making excuses. Have a good morniment. No right, there's no right way to doing the wrong thing. Not wearing a mask is wrong

at a time like this. If you're trying to stop the transmission of coronavirus, period, get it off your chest. Eight hundred five eight five one on five one. If you need to vent hit us up now. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning, the Breakfast Club. Did your time to get it off your chests, your man or blast so people to have the same in We want to hear from you on the breakfast club. Hello, who's this being pretty from Rockland? What's up? Brother? Get it off

Whoa whoa? I don't ever disrespect my COVID nineteen headline. Okay, here's COVID NY headline was kind of weak. But come on,

I don't think. I don't think the CALLI records of that week they just you know what it is, They just generic, like we know what a DJ Khalid records sound like, we know what a Drake record sound like. And it's just like it's just it's just mid it ain't whack, it's just but it ain't cush either though, you know what I mean? And it ain't Reggie, just mid so. But tell man, y'all say state man and much club to y'all. Man, all right, you have a

going broba. Hello, who's this? I gave her hor few chests. Bro Hey. I was just calling because I'm just kind of crusted with people that people they record podcasts and they put them up on YouTube and on all brand sites, and then you know, you can say something five years ago and then you're still held accountable for it. It's like, well, you know, people change. Okay, welcome, Welcome to my world chair. Yeah,

I could see the rope that you guys had, you know, and the last thing I want to say before I get off, and runners that like, we need people not like Dakasi six nine, but we

need people that are in gangs. I see things that are a fouled, like kids getting killed and innocent people getting beat up and robbed. To say, that's not right. You don't have to tournamentto the police, but these people shouldn't be just terrorizing the neighborhood. Yeah. I think it's a difference between snitching and crime prevention. You know what, I mean, I don't I don't think there's anything wrong

with seeing something and saying something. That's how you keep you know, that's how you break the cycle of trouble in your community. All right, get it off your chest.

They said, during these turbulent times, HBO Max wants you to just relax.

So the streamer has ordered a series called A World of Calm, and it's based on the popular app and it's narrated by some of those big names my Herschela Ali and Nicole Kidman's Ae Kravitz, Lucy lou Keanu Reeves. So each half hour episode takes audiences on an immersive visual journey into another world, building on calm's sleep stories. I love a good bedtime story. My daughters don't like

for me to read bedtime stories. If I come into the room and I try to read a bedtime story to them, they snatched the book for me and give it to my mom. I'm gonna give it to my wife. To your mom, Okay, my wife, Wait a minute. So they don't like for me to read in bedtime stories, but I will lay on the floor and listen to your mom reading bedtime stories. So bedtime stories aren't very calming. Yes that is true. All right, Well that is your

front page news, I mean m report. All right, thank you, missy. You let me just say that that's your rumor report, because when we come back, we have front page news. And what are we talking about? Yes, indeed we do it, and we are going to be talking about the NFL, what's happening with the new season, and also the Washington Redskins. For now, there are some accusations of sexual harassment from the staffers. All right, we'll get into that next. Keeping

locked this to Breakfast Club. Good morning morning. Everybody is DJ Envy Angela Yee, Charlomagne, the guy. We all the Breakfast Club let's getting some front page news where we're starting. Ye, well, let's start with mortgage rates. I know, I didn't know you guys were going up. Mortgage rates have fallen below three percent for the first time ever right now as

the economy is struggling. So the average thirty year fixed rate mortgage fell to a record low of two point nine two point nine eight percent this past week, and the fifteen year fixed rate mortage draft to two point four eight percent. Yeah, this is a great time to purchase at home if you can afford it. Interest rates are at the lowest, and the refinance as well if

you are high. If you have high interest rates, this is a time where you can refinance and it could save you a couple hundred dollars, maybe even thousand dollars a month. So this is the time to do it. Yeah. Yeah, it's hard. There's not a lot of inventory out there right now, so there's an increased demand because of these low mortgage rates. But then inventory is just not there right now, so you got to really go hard to try to find something. I don't think people realize how

bad the economy is struggling right now. You know, trauma is high money is low, and that's why I saw much violence in the hood in this present time. All Right, at least fifteen women are accusing Washington Redskin staffers of sexual harassment. You know, they've been in the news a lot lately talking about changing their name and changing their logo for the team. Well, now they've launched an internal investigation.

There's fifteen former female employees and two journalists who covered the team who are accusing these staffers of sexual harassment and also verbal abuse. The allegations who are first reported yesterday by The Washington Post, and former employees accusing Larry Michael, the team's former senior vice president of content and play by play announcer, of talking about the attractiveness of a college intern while he was being recorded for a team video,

according to a newspaper. Also, they have screenshots of text messages in which Richard Man, the second, who was the team's assistant director of pro personnel, they were inappropriate sexual comments to a female employee. He was fired in the past week. Now. The owner Dan Snyder and former team president Bruce Allen were not directly implicated, but they are saying that they fostered a culture in which the behavior

was permitted. Yes, they get to justice there seeking right well, fortune of the fifteen accusers said that they had signed NBA's so they were scared they could face litigation if their names were used. All right, And what's going to

happen with the new NFL season? While JJ Watt from the Houston Texans was tweeting out a list of things that players and the NFL players associations know and don't know regarding the upcoming NFL season and the interest of having everyone on the same page terms what we know and don't know, here are a few things I've learned, he said that players do want to play, but want

to do it in the safest way possible. He said players still have yet to receive a valid infections disease emergency response from any team or league, and he did not know how often the league will test players throughout the season for coronavirus or how a positive test would

affect things like contracts and roster spots. But he says they players have not been told whether there will be any preseason games, and nothing has been agreed upon regarding what training camp will actually look like and how the ramp up period will work. But training camp start dates are still being negotiated between the NFL and between the

players Association, They said. Rookies for the Houston Texans are scheduled to report on Saturday, and the Texans are scheduled to open the regular season against the Kansas City Chiefs on September tenth. You know, I would never have expected that we would be going into the fall still dealing with coronavirus. And I would have never expected that. And our government is absolutely doing nothing. Has there ever been a time when lack of leadership has been more apparent

in a position? Yeah, like you American people, y'all cannot sit here and tell me, y'all don't feel alone out here, like we don't know, we don't know what the end is for this thing. They're just telling us that, well, you know it's there. God didn't deal with it on your own. Yeah. These kids back to school. Yeah, and like you said, like my son started football practice, and I mean they're taking as serious, but it's still scary. They go to practice, they have to stand, you know,

six feet away from each other. They're not throwing a football yet, they're really just just running and do it exercises and they have different groups. If they have to answer questions every day. So I for kids says he's feeling sick, that whole group has to leave for fourteen days. If if one of the kids feel like they have a temperature, they check everybody's temperature every day. If one kid feels sick, if he's in that group, that whole

group is gone. So they're trying to take as serious as possible, but they're still trying to allow kids to at least come back and be able to talk to their friends and have some type of normalcy. Yeah, and that you're that's so mentally scressful for me as a parent because I'm like, Okay, my daughter's back at cheerleading practice. She started back this week. What is it safe? Like they do the same thing. She gets there, They check a temperature, they gotta put the hand sanitized on their

social distance in. But it's just like, should we be here right now? I would say everybody else is here? Yea bro? They sent an email out. They sent the email out yesterday that was like, hey, parents, we know you like to watch your kids, but you can't stay on the gate and watch your kids together. It defeats the point of purpose. You can't stay as parents together talking while your kids are practice, And you got the why are we here at practice? So why are the

kids here at practice? But the kids kids? But the parents can't stay there and watch the kids and stay together because that the feasts the purpose they want six feet distancing. You know, it's crazy parents stay to watch chier leading practice. And then you got the uh they talk, you know when they talk about opening in schools up in the fall, You're like, okay, if well, if they can't go back to school, why are we here at cheerleading practice? Like it's just it's just it's just scressful.

It's just very scressful time right now. Man, Absolutely, I don't even know how to be a good job as a parent. That is your front page news. All right, thank you, miss ye. Now when we come back, Amanda Seals will be joining us. We'll kick it with Amanda Seals, find out everything that's going on with her. So don't move. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning, the Breakfast Club. I want everybody is DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Sholomie the guy. We all the Breakfast Club. We got a special guest

on the line and friends to the room. Amanda Seals Seals, good morning, Good morning. He's a West Cuts. She's up at six in the morning looking all styled and fabulous. So early. I tried to give y'all a little something. You know, we don't never leave a house, so it's like, here's an excuse for me to do something on my face and whatnot do something with my face? Well, first of all, I just want to say congratulations on the BT Awards because I think you pulled that off amazing.

I know it's a different time for everyone and we were like, how is this going to happen? But I gotta ask you, how did that feel? Did you killed it? Thank y'all? Um, it felt good. I mean it was trials and tribulations, you know, to to do that. I don't think people really know the order of events that went down. Uh well, first of all, I uh well, shout out to Jesse Collins, who produced BT Awards, and he you know, I didn't even know he was looking for me to host it. And my internet in my

crib was acting up. Felt like real Teddy Riley and versus um, and so I ended up having to do my writer's room in my car down the street from my house for the for the Wi Fi to work. So I was in my car for five hours every day for the for the week before the BT Awards. And shout to my writers Yaster, Lester Links and Kerman

and Sam Jum We really and Kennis Mobili. We really put together, I believe a unique show because considering what was going on and just you know, and and thank you to Jesse Collins and Dion Harmon because MBT because for what it's worth, like they didn't it. I didn't have to like get notes like it was literally like a man to just do what you want to do. And it felt good to have that trust because I really do know what I'm doing and I really felt like I could capture the time wearing a weird ass

crazy time. We're in a beautiful time as well, and you know, we are in a very thoughtful time, and I needed to walk a lot of lines and be in a lot of spaces at the same time. It's be funny at the same time it's be entertaining for no one in the immediate presence because I ended up having to do the John in my house. Yeah, how it was filled with no crowd like there was nobody cheering,

nobody saying anything. How was that? So the night before, we were supposed to go to the studio because at least you were gonna shoot in the studio, so I'd have my glam squad and you know, the producer and was expecting to at least have that. So then the night before they were like, okay, crisis, one of the team. One of your team tested positive for COVID. Oh damn, everybody got to be quarantined. We gotta do this in your house. Wow. So I was like, because I called Charlotte,

I was like, it's gonna be whack. Oh no, I'm a little corny, is there? And I had just done a bunch of press where I was like, it's not like we're gonna be doing it in my house because also, like you know, people are always doubting me anyway, So everyone's like, it's gonna be boring. She corny, it's gonna be whack. You know what they're gonna do. It's gonna be like her insot story. And I'm like, oh my god,

it's gonna be like my ancestor. And that that was really frightening to me, and so um, what's the first thing I told you. I said, you're gonna take it back to the days when you was in hallm in the basement with the green screen. Okay, doing those sketches. All right, that's that's all you had to do. You were built for that. You really, you know, Jimmie Fox had talked about this, but you really just don't realize how everything you've done ends up being training for where

you're what you're doing. You that's why the process is so important. And you know, we had already planned to do the sketches in the different BT shows. I didn't really know how that was gonna end up being presented and how we were going to extrapolate that from being in my living room. We had to tape everything, do set up everything. You had to do everything. So my ex had come into Tech that night before. We want not read him. We will not name his name because

he does not deserve it. But I did get him a credit because I'm a good woman and I got him and I got him a large check because you know, even though if it's someone who loves you, they will help you out in that crisis just off the shrink. It's like, you know, if I can get if I can get my man some bread, I'm gonna get my man some bread. Like that's just you know, part for the course. I did end up shooting like I was shooting by myself. He didn't help me when I was shooting,

So I definitely had to do my own makeup. I had to do my own hair, you know, I was dressing myself like, so I'm in my house, like, run into the bathroom on FaceTime with my makeup artist. Shout out to Renee sang Anoo, shout to my hair. Stilence, Nikki be at my wardrobe. Silence, Brian Javar. Because we put together our whole vision, you know, like I really hope people got it that we were doing some playing

homage to some classic looks and styles. You know, we had the Mary Jay looking there, we had a dapper Damn looking there. You know, we gave you Hillary Banks, etc. So we were really trying to really do a convergence of black massalgea and really pay respects to just how style has played a role in this whole trajectory of black culture. I'm over to the trick. Well, we set up the night before and then we started at like nine am the next morning with the cameras and then

I filmed from one o'clock to eleven at night. Wow, it was an exercise and efficiency and I really will fay this like and this is no shade to anybody, But I don't know who could have done it. I really don't because I really had to use every talent I have, all of them. Like I was running the prompter, I'm Mike and myself. You know, I'm checking the shot. I'm looking. I mean like producer, director, ad talent. It was, um,

you killed it, though you killed it, thank you. I had to cry the whole next day and chow cancer fashion. You know you're just like, hey, let's move on that end. I would have never thought that you had never known. I had a complain it as me grow in his house and doing everything by myself. And we were really like on jan Kie Wi Fi. We got more with a man the Seals when we come back, don't move.

It's the Breakfast Club, Go morning e j Envy Angela Yee, Charlomagne, the guy we are the Breakfast Club was still kicking it with Amanda Seals. Now, how do you think you've grown during these crazy times during this pandemic, I've learned. I've really learned restraint and the power and restraint and the love and restraint, and you know, just being able to be more thoughtful about Yes, you need to get what's in you off you, but you can practice the

pause that gives you the consciousness about someone else. And I will say this, it was harder for me to do that in relationship than it was like with friends or with business, because in a relationship you just feel like we can all let it all hang out. I'm gonna say whatever I need to say, you will say

whatever you need to say. But when you start to really practice just the respect of speaking from a place if I like you, versus speaking from a place of like you're gonna hear me like, it really does change the exchange and it creates a safe space. Now can we can we talk about the real And you led the underground railroad to streat and now people are following you. How did that make you feel? You know what? Though, to be honesty, I don't want to forsake my spirit

of soul or integrity for this down ever again. And it's not that I went into it thinking that because I didn't by any means. I really went into the reel like this is gonna be so dope, so fun, so great, because whenever I would guess, it felt like such a safe space, you know, it felt like they genuinely wanted to hear my voice, et cetera. So, uh, but I don't want. I don't like Hollywood. I hate

this place. Uh. I love because I thought I thought too broad, Like you didn't change, like you can never change, to you all who you are, Like you've never change. I've never seen you slip, I've never seen you die, like you'll remember them. But behind the scenes, you know, And that's really the lesson. I talked about this on Hollywood Unlock. Like you just you're so focused on what's happening on camera, but that's the least amount of time you're spending, right, you know, you spend like an hour

on camera. You know, the most of the time you're dealing with production, you're dealing with your your executives, you're not even really you're not even dealing with your cohes like that. And so you just start to see like there's a culture in different places that you work that is toxic, and sometimes you just don't know that till you get there. The last year was incredibly daring for me. It's just like the level of visibility that happened last year was like wild, and you know, some of it

was associated with positivity. A lot of it was like negative things that I couldn't believe were happening. I just couldn't. I couldn't believe that I was moving in a positive way, and then like such negativity would be attached to it. When I was moving in a way to what I thought was protect women, I was led on and just my character was completely by many accounts, people felt like my character was no longer of merit. And to this day, I'm still dealing with that simply because like a man said,

I lied, then that's it. There's no there's no proof for anything. It's just because because I'm answered, I lied, I lied, and that was it. Like and that's how that feels, that is, I'm at you here and no proof nothing, somebody could say anything, and then people run with it and then they bring it up all the time anytime there's something going on. They're like, well she did this, well didn't she? And you're like and you're like that and they have, they have no proof of

validity the best. Then you know, you fast forward and there was a whole ammy party fiasco, you know, and it was just like I'm going somewhere to support, but it still ends up going like wild negative and then because we're in this very visible space, it becomes this onslaught and I have never had six skin. I'm a cancer, like so it was a lot, you know, it really wore on me, like real, for real war on me. I have like a whole nervous breakdown in March for real,

and not the tissue. I know. Sorry, I'm just thinking about it because I was in such a dark place and I know so many people like you just get to a point where you think like I can't change myself, but the world hates me, and so then if I'm going to continue to be myself in the world, then then I'm gonna struggle all the time. And that makes you want to kill yourself because you're like it's never gonna get better, So what's the point. And that was

a really like real place I was in. And anybody who knows me knows like I'm not a defeated person, and they know that I really come from a place of joy and gentleness, and like I needed to make myself the Passion Project because I put so much work into my work and into you know, not being what people think I am and proving and all this stuff. And at the end the day, I had started to believe what they had made up about me, which is that I'm not a loving person and that I don't

deserve love. And if you're not careful, you'll let the people who know you at least make you feel like you don't know yourself. And I know so many people are in that place right now and they don't know

if they'll get out of that place. And it wasn't until I started really approaching therapy and then I started boxing because I realized I had all this anger in me and I need to, you know, And I started doing raiki and I really just started just letting myself be open to like, whatever the possibilities are for me to feel healthy again. And well, all right, we got more with a man de seals when we come back,

don't move. It's the breakfast Club goal morning e j Envy Angela Yee, Charlomagne, the guy we are the Breakfast Club was still Kicking It with a Man de seals Ye and this book you talk about when you realize that you have made it and that you were you know, you went out this one night and were yeah, black famous and people were recognizing you and how your friends were with you and they were like, you did it.

I mean it requires aggressive self acceptance. I wonder why it's so easy for people for people to believe the negative we hear about ourselves from others, but not believe to positive we know about ourselves and tell ourselves. I mean it's like, you know, look how quickly cancer spreads, you know. And I think also, you know, we are made of atoms. We have protons and neutrons and electrons, we have positive and negative charges, so it's always there.

I think that's why the whole positive affirmation thing ends up being so necessary, because it's as if you're building up an emotional immune system to challenge those negatives, because your receptors are always there, just as the of being a being. You know, the negative receptors are there, so you got to work to build up your positive receptors, and that really does take work, and we don't put

enough energy into that work. We're actually told that that work is corny, you know, or that work makes you a simp, etc. But it's beautiful when you do it because it starts to make it where like the negative is it's growth. It's like you can't even connect to it. It feels so unnatural because you've you've done this like shy limb practice of only attracting positive. And even as I talk about it, there's still a part of me that's, like,

you sound corny. Oh. I think that's because we are in the negative world, so like the world is built to me more so to run on negative than positive. And that's why you got to make sure your world doesn't run on that, so that even when you got to go out in the world, you can come back into a space like I want to be in a positive space at all times. Listen, I don't don't want you around me if you ain't happy to be around me.

And even if you're going through it, check that at the door, like maybe we can we can not even maybe we can make space to talk about it. But at the end of the day, it's like, I want you to be happy in this space. And so often, I mean I said a tweet that rubs some people the wrong way. But it's like I said, if it's eyes light up when his boys call, but they're empty when it's just y'all, focus on yourself, sis, focus on yourself.

I think with you one thing you said that's very important too, man, Like you know, you have to monitor who your energy goes up and down around. Like when I see certain people on my phone, I'm like, yes, my folks, you know what I mean. And I'm at the point I I only want to talk to people I love. I only want to be around the people I love. I don't have time for anything else. The truth of the matter is like we I will always come back to this, like the hardest thing that this

world makes to me. The world makes it so hard for you to have like internal freedom. That's good. And when you have that, you can go work for anybody really, you know, and you're like, I'm gonna come here and do this little job and be out of here, you know.

And then what ends up happening naturally is you just start moving energy, shifting into spaces that are better for you, and you find yourself getting opportunities outside of you know, the ones that you thought were only available to you just because you're attracting something different, and I don't need

more wealth. I would be more than happy to simply just continue to work with my businesses and my companies and build those from the ground up and then nurtured loving space, and that will feed me financially, but more importantly, will feed me intellectually and internally. And that is more valuable for me right now. And I understand for people

who are listening like there's privilege in getting to that space. Yes, absolutely there is priv religion getting that space, and I am so thankful for the opportunity to even have that privilege. But I also know that I really worked for that, you know, like that wasn't provided to me. It is available to everyone, even though everyone's journey to it may be very, very different. It is available to everyone, and I think that for a lot of folks, it really

looks like it's only available to white people. You know, it really does feel like that. It feels like it's only available. It feels like it's only available to light skin people. It feels like it's only available to pretty people or to skinny people, you know what I mean.

But it really is available to everybody, and I really, I really just I just want us to do better at and particularly for brothers to do better at telling other brothers like you have everything within you, to find peace within you so that you don't have to do the things that hurt you. And at a certain point, a lot of people, especially men, because of patriarchy, pain metastasizes into pride. And next thing, you know, you proud of your pain, ye, And what do we do when

things we're proud of we protect them. How you're protecting your pain? And if you're protecting your pain, how are you gonna ever let it go? And leading with ego because ego feels strong and ego feels safe. I know about that, but um, yeah, you know, it's it's always fun to come talk to y'all because I also know there's gonna be like self reflection, there's gonna be career reflection, there's gonna be black reflection, you know, and you are face.

It's beautiful watching you grow. Seals Yeah, seals. We love

you and we appreciate you for checking in. I want people to know too, Like as much as I just talked about how degrading and frustrating Hollywood is, you can you when you find the people that rock with you hold onto them, you know, like I hosted the bat Award not just because I was the right person, but because the right person knew I was the right person right, And those relationships for me are real, Like Jesse Collins is my friend, you know, like it is that positive

love that you have from those other people. So I know that I'm you know, as I advanced in this business, I'm in more of a place of being able to make room for that authenticity. And when you do that, you just create more of a trend for that to happen. And then eventually, I hope it starts to knock out all the fake and phony. You know, there's nothing, there's no air for it to breathe absolutely, well, thank you so much. We try to say goodbye three times. It's well,

actually one last thing. Go to my Funny and Black dot com. You know, check out my production company, my work, my my growth. You know, I want to encourage everybody who's a creative to understand that this is the process, but that you really can make a creative life for yourself. And as a creative, you're going to have to create your life. And in that we always know that you may get paint on your hands, you may get you know, splinters, etc. But it's worth it. Well, it's a man, the seals,

it's the Breakfast Club the morning. She's filling the team. This is the rule of report with Angela Yee on the Breakfast Club. Well, you would never want to think that this is true. And we still don't know what's going on. So some people are trying to say. According to page six, sources that Tory Lanes was allegedly the person that shot Megan the Stallion because of a reported dispute inside of his vehicle. The sources said Tory fired the shot to him within the vehicle while Megan was

outside trying to leave. There is video and the police are investigating this is a case of a man physically harming and abusing a woman. So an LAPD spokesperson is not confirming if they was video submitted, and they also said videos would not be released until the case goes to court. They said the detectives are seeking information regarding the shooting involving day Star Peterson. That's Tory Lanes and the investigation is still ongoing. I'm not privileged to what

the detectives have right now. Yeah, I don't know what's true, but if so, if that story is true, man, those guys in Canada shoot their shot different, and that's not what we mean when we say shoot off shot in America, Tory, I hope, no, I hope that's not true. I pray it's not true. It don't even sound real, Like it's like, are we show Mercury still not in retrograde? Because every other day I'm hearing a story that I'm like, there's no way in hell that happened, like what Tory Lane

in the foot. Remember yesterday we were talking about Megan the Stallion's producer a little Jumade the beat and what he had to say Sunday night, and he threatened Tory Lanes and he said, I hope y'all don't believe he was defending her. This is a bas story. I care

about my people being straight. Give a damn about some cloud. Yeah, And then I saw her bodyguards say that, you know, Meg gonna never leave the house again without me all without some people that uh that that that that don't that do more than aim for the feet or something like that. Yeah, And I'm but my thing is this if Tory did do that right allegedly, because I don't I don't know, we don't know nothing. Why would everybody be keeping this quiet? You know what I'm saying, Like,

why would they be protecting him? Like why would you know? What I mean? Like, well, you know, you know, because people feel like you can't snitch, you can't tell that whole mentality yet if that man shot her in the foot, like she was trying to leave, now you tell you snitch woman, and people are probably well, first of all,

they're probably still doing an investigation. Secondly, they're probably waiting to see how Megan the Stallion moves forward and handles it in respect of what she wants to do and how much she wants and when she wants to discuss everything. So out of respect for Megan the Stallion, maybe they're waiting for what she needs for her support and lee. If a man shot you in the foot, how long would it take you to tell who shot you? I mean, like,

I can't speak for her, I don't know. It's never happened to me, so I don't know what that would feel like. I know she's traumatized, as she said, so she's going through a lot. So maybe she's going to tell what happened, but she's just not ready yet publicly. Maybe behind the scenes she has and publicly she's not ready to be under the microscope like that yet. You know, I think it's more about it right now her. Yeah,

I get it. But the fact that we don't know the full story of this situation lets me know that it's a lot more to this situation, and it's probably not anything that's being reported right now. Probably what it's probably something else that we haven't even thought about. And you know, she might be talking to the authorities, talking to her lawyer, figuring out how she wants to handle it. That's up to her. I hope he. I just pray he didn't shoot her in the foot, get sight in

the foot. My pray that this story is not true. I don't care how many jokes y'all want to get off I do. Nobody wants this story to be true. No, but the truth will come out, so we will know at some point soon. I feel like all right. Evan Lozada, she was on Instagram and she was talking about her relationship with Chad Ochocinko and the domestic violence incident that they had and she was triggered because of something that he posted. Now, he was reflecting on his past actions

and somebody asked on Twitter was the secret? How do you stay so positive? Was it therapy? Not being funny? Really asking for myself, and he responded, I lost my temper for once in life, for three seconds, and it cost me a lifetime's worth of work. I got it all back plus some after getting a second chance, and nothing will ever get me out of that happy space again.

While Evelyn Lozada appeared to respond to Otosinko's tweet, and she put up a picture of her face after the head button everything happened with them, and she said this took longer than three seconds. And then she also posted this video and said, I'm sorry to my kids, my family and friends, my fellow cast members, their kids and family, the viewers, and anyone else I hurt or affected with

my actions. Listen to her what she had to say for this man to sit up there, I'd say that, you know, he lost his temper for three seconds is infuriating to me. As much as I'm trying to heal from this, it's messages like this that are triggers for me. You know people read this on social media and then are you know coming at me talking about, oh, you made this man lose his job. It's like, if you're gonna speak the truth, I want you to speak the truth.

It wasn't the first time. Damn man. I'm praying for healing for everybody involved. That's all you can do in situations like this. And I will say, you can't still try to conceal some parts of yourself and claim transparency that you'll never get to a place of healing like that. You gotta tell it all and say nothing. Now, for people who are critical of Evident for speaking out, here's what you had to say about how this triggered something while she was minding her own business. I was at home.

I'm minding my own business, and then I have to deal with this. I haven't never discussed anything else that has ever happened the incident that people know, because I always was concerned about his kids and our kids are always having to relive this. Yeah, I think that was whack that people were critical. I mean, something triggered her.

She felt the way she should be able to express how she feels like, I mean, peop are coming at her because that people are coming at her because they're making it seem like she made everything get taken from him for three seconds, and she's like, that is not true.

And then she also talked about how she portrayed herself on Basketball Wise because people also were like, oh, well, you was on there being violent, so now that she was on the other foot, and I remember when that happened and people were saying that, and here's how she responded. And then when it comes to Basketball Wise and all that, people tend to connect my character on the show with what happened to him, and I understand that to a certain degree. I take full responsibility. I know I'm the

one on the show. I'm the one that hasn't been the most positive person. I know I'm the one that has made us look bad, and I'm sorry, and I understand that I didn't always handle things the right way. You know, when people say someone caused you to lose something, you know for a few seconds, do we realize that you can build something up for twenty years, thirty years,

and all it takes his seconds to lose it. Like literally, you remember your parents used to tell you trouble is easy to get into, but hard to get out of Do we not realize that? Yeah, listen. And it's also kind of not taking responsibility for what you did, like, oh, there's still three second mistakes, Like no, you did something terrible, that's domestic violence. Yeah, once again, you can't, you can't, you know, still try to conceal some parts of yourself

and and and claim transparency. If you're gonna be transparent, you know, transparency is usually what helps you get to a place of healing. So if you're not gonna be fully transparent, what's the point? All right? And Nick Cannon is taking time off from his radio show. He announced on Twitter that he's decided to do that. He said, Morning radio family. I've decided to take some time away from my radio show so I can commit myself to

deeper and more thorough reflection and education. And he plans to use this time to talk to rabbis, community leaders, institutions, and just established an action plan towards real impactful change. He posted a picture on his Instagram and he said,

stay tuned. It's just the beginning. It appears that he's talking to I'm not sure if it's a rabbi, but somebody that's going to help educate him on the relationship between Jewish people and black people, and then he posted I heard an entire community and it pained me to my core. I thought it couldn't get any worse than I watched my own community turn on me and call me a sellout for apologizing. Good Night and joy Earth. That's the problem. We cared too much about what other

people think in regard to how we move. It takes a strong human to admit when they're wrong and apologize. And what Nick Cana said about the Jewish community was absolutely wrong. And if you talk to some Jewish folks and they break down while those comments were bad, you will completely understand. So there's nothing wrong with him apologizing. When you offend someone one and your intention wasn't to offend, Apologizing is what you do if you feel like you

need to. But now somebody needs to go check on Nick Cannon because that absolutely sounded crazy. That we sounded like somebody that is at the end of their rope. Okay, And it's one thing you know to to to cancel somebody, but man, you can't cancel people. You got to counsel them. I actually heard Stephen A. Smith say that yesterday, you know. So, yes, he got to deal with the consequences of his words. But we don't want the brother to kill himself, not

at all. I would hope I would. I would hope not. I would hope that. You know, that's not what people want, all right? Well that and everybody just please, at least, you know, send Nick Cannons a love. I do see that he's getting a lot of support, but I know that hate comes strong and it's hard to deal with all that one especially when you feel like I've been doing this work, I've been a good person all this time.

I made a mistake. I apologize for it. Why can't we move towards some sort of resolution, you see, proactively talking to people and educating himself. What did I just say? You can or something up for years and it takes seconds, you know, the tear it all down, you know. But once again, we got to be gentle with each other, you know, especially when it comes to our mistakes, because you don't know what people are going through or why they are going going going through things. So you know, yes, man,

I do want the Cannon to kill himself. Yes, he was absolutely wrong for what he said, you know, and I'm glad he apologized, and anybody that thinks he's wrong for apologizing, then y'all need to do some education. That's that's the thing to what he said, that you would understand why he felt he was wrong. When we make mistakes, we have to apologize, be a man and apologize to keep it moving. It is. That is your rumor report. All right, thank you, miss see Charlemagne. Yes, sir, when

you give me that donktu. You know, we need to talk about people who are underqualified, okay to be in the positions that they're in the life. We'll discuss. All right, we'll get into that next keeping lock this to Breakfast Club. Good morning you are, I'm gonna fatten all that they want. This man's Totten Blowers man. They're waiting for Charlemagne to top. They have to make a judgment. Who was going to be on the Donkey of the Day. They chose you

the Preakfast Club, Bitchy. Who's Donkey of the Day today. Donkey of Today for Friday, July seventeenth goes to White House Press Secretary Cayley mcanny McCanny mcnanny, Canley mcnanny nanny makes me laugh. Nor nanny used to be in school anyway. Canley is a prime example of the era we live in, someone who is underqualified to be in the position that they are in. The primary responsibility of the White House Press Secretary is the act as a spokesperson for the

US government, especially in regards to the president. The problem with every single person in the Trump administration is one thing. They are all scared to speak out against the president. If the President is wrong, they won't tell him. If the President makes a mistake, they won't admit he made a mistake. Okay, America, you cannot love your party over the country. It shouldn't matter what side you on. America is in Shamble's right now. Coronavirus don't care if we

Democrat a Republican. Hell, the economy don't care if you Democrat a Republican. Trauma doesn't care if you're Democrat. A Republican being sick physically, mentally, emotionally, spiritually, those ailments don't care if you are a Democrat are Republican. We have a lack of leadership in this country like I've never seen before, and it is showing. The economy is in the toilet. Money is low, trauma is high, and it doesn't seem to be any relief in site. Now I

understand how important hope is President Barack Obama. Some people love him, some people feel he didn't do enough in the White House, especially in regards the black people. That's all debatable. Nobody is above critique. But if it's one thing that man provided is hope, Hope is important. Hope is crucial at a time like this. Hope is being able to see that there is light at the end of the darkness. Bro One thing that man, President Barack Hussaint Obama was able to do was provide hope. He

could be that to get us through this administration. And I mean this in the most nonpartisan way possible. Is absolutely dark. No lights on in the White House. Okay, I don't think anyone is home because when White House Press Secretary Kaylee mcnanny, am I saying that? Right? That's just my little in a child that keeps saying nanny. You know what nanny is? Anyway, Kaylee mcnanny was doing a press briefing yesterday and she was asked if schools

should open or not. She fumbled her notes because she was too busy sticking to that damn script that Trump administration wants her to read. You have to watch the video to see what I'm talking about. But when she's asked the question about schools opening, she immediately went through a script and she fumbled her lines badly. Let's listen

to when she first was asked about schools opening. Listen. Now, the President has said unmistakably that he wants schools to open, and I was just in the Oval talking to him about that. And when he says open, he means open and full. The science should not stand in the way of this. Okay, you heard what she said, don't let science stand in the way of this, meaning don't listen to the experts, don't listen to the doctors and scientists

who know what they're talking about. Listen to us. Okay. Well, literally seconds later, I'm not even sure she took a breath after saying don't let science stand and stand in the way this. Listen to what she had to say. Yeahs, Doctor Scott Atlas said, I thought this was a good quote. Of course, we can do it. Everyone else in the Western world, our pure nations are doing it. We are the outlier here. The science is very clear on this

that you know. For instance, you look at the jam a pediatric study of forty six pediatric hospitals in North America that said the risk of critical illness from COVID is far less per children than that a seasonal flew. The science is on our side here, and we encourage for localities and states to just simply follow the science open our schools. It's very damaging to our children. There's

a lack of reporting of abuse. There's mental depressions that are not addressed, suicidal ideations that are not addressed when students are not in school. The science is very clear on this. Science is on our side here. Didn't you tell us not to let science stand in the way? Like? Which is it? So you have to listen to these things side by side to really understand why at this point I feel like we have no hope here in America. Okay, because the people who are supposed to be leading are

at the wheel with a pillow in a blanket. Listen to how easily she contradicts herself in a matter of a second, you got to him side by side. Listen, the science should not stand in the way of this are The science is very clear on this. The science is on our side. Here follow the science, America. I don't even have the audacity of hope right now. Okay. I believe in me, I believe in my family, I believe in my friends. But I have absolutely no hope

for our government. I have hope for what I see going on in the streets, the protests, you know, the people who are standing up against racism and bigotry and who are actively fighting to dismantle this mechanism called white supremacy, the people who are standing up for homophobia and anti semitism. But I don't know if it matters. You know what's going on in the street. Because of what's going on and Dad Whitehouse, I have no faith because of leadership

like this. Okay, we have people who don't stand for anything. Cayley, I don't even know what she really believes. Not only is she reading off the script and fumbling it badly. Listen to her back in twenty fifteen in regards to Donald J. Trump when he was running for president, Hayley, how sickapoles are people in New Hampshire right now? Probably very sick, especially when they see that Donald Trump is number two and doesn't deserve to be there. Okay, why

do you think of the Trump excitement? What do you trump that up? I appreciate his boldness, and I think some of his rhetoric got the base excited, but it is not welcome rhetoric. Donald Trump has shown himself to be a showman. I don't think he's a serious candidate. Hayley, this is your guy. He's number two in the polls. Hey, I don't want to claim this guy. Oh my god, nothing wrong with change in your mind, but yikes, Okay,

I have no faith right now? Okay. President Barack Obama said in the Audacity of Hope, we think of faith as a source of comfort and understanding, or find our EXPRESSI is a faith sowing division. We believe ourselves to be a tolerant people, even as racial, religious, and cultural tensions royal to landscape. And instead of resolving these tensions, are mediating these conflicts, our politics fans them, exploits them, and drives us further apart. Further apart at a time

like this is an understatement. Pray for yourself, Pray for your family, Pray for your friends, but more importantly, pray for America if you want to, because I really think God is sending all America's prayers to the spam folder right now. But uh yeah, pray please give Keyley mc nanny mc nanny bigga. See hall, y'all know what nanny is, right, well, yes, it's a lady that watches my kids when I'm not here. No, y'all,

y'all didn't say nanny growing up up north that. No, I ain't knownana nana popo, nanny man nanny mean doodo like thesis. No for that. No, we say we sail that boy smelt like nanny anny. I never heard that. No, we never said that. Okay, this administration, it's full of nanny, all right, Okay, this administration beyond that nanny. Okay, all right, Well,

thank you for that dunky. To day when we come back, Jade Simmons will be joining us that she's from South Carolina, explaining to the people who jams three eight four three Charleston, South Carolina, Jade Simmons, M. Jade Simmons is actually running for president. You know. She's a twenty twenty independent uh candidate, you know, and um, I just think she has a lot of a lot of great things to say, you know, she her father is an activist in Charleston, South Carolina.

And you know, Jade is just a person that I think people should hear from, you know. Okay, so yeah, we're gonna hear from her next. Jade Simmons. She's running for President UM as an independent candidate. Okay, all right, we'll get into that next. Keeping lock this to Breakfast Club. Good Morning the Breakfast Club. That's the world most dangerous morning show. To Breakfast Club, Charlemagne and God Angela. Ye, we have a guest on the zoom right now. She

is from Charleston, South Carolina. She is running for President of the United States of America as an independent, and she has a book out called Audacious Prayers for World Changes. Miss j Simmons, Jade was happening. Thanks you all so much for having me from your background, right, you're a classic pianist. What made you decide that she wanted to run for president? Well, something we've been thinking about my

family and I for quite a few years. I would take sense about twenty fifteen, and the key was when was the best time? People keep saying why did you jump in so late? But the truth is I've been here since January We didn't announce publicly until February because we figured if we had he filed with the SEC, if we didn't make an official there was no way the media was going to pick the story up. But just let that sit there for a second. But listen,

we've been here and the key for us. There were three things I was looking for to know if now was the time, if this was the time of the great paradigm ship that I believe was on the way. One, I felt like race relations was going to be at an all time low. I'm the daughter of a civil rights activist. I've been speaking understanding race since I was five six years old, and I felt like the climate we've been in for the last four years had really ripped things up to a point almost of no return

if we didn't have the right leadership. Number Two, I felt like we were going to have some incredible economic disparities, educational and racial disparities. I felt like they were going to be exposed beyond measure like anything we've ever seen. And Thirdly, as a Christian, quite honestly, I was getting tired of watching my faith be hijacked on the right, watching people pretend to worship the same God I worship, and to me completely tramp all over the principles that

teach us to honor and love one another. All three of those things have happened. Lo and behold, COVID nineteen exacerbated everything, Lo and behold, the murder of George Floyd turned things on its head. And we have a unique moment in time. So even though we've been here for a while and people are just finding out about us, we feel like the time is right now. Do you have a background in politics at all? Not at all? And I'm excited about that. I think the last thing

we want to do is have politics as usual. And before you say it, I know the man in the office right now ran on that sat. But if you put the top five things that you don't like about President Trump, not being a politician doesn't even break the top five. He's not even president because of who he is. You know, his failings have nothing to do with politics. I think we're watching him live out in leadership the same way he's lived his life. And so what I've

been telling people as hold that's accountable. Look at how we've lived, and you'll see how we're going to leave. So you're talking to somebody who can pledge easily, especially not being beholden to either side to prioritize people over politics, profit, personal agenda every single time. If this is the year that we need a pas alet cleanser president, I don't

know what else is. Well, let's talk about some of your policies, Jay, because I would love to hear you tell us what are the some of the things that you feel like we need, what you would want to implement, and what the plan is to get that done. Yeah, you know we have universal buying right now, that systemic injustices exist. It took us centuries to get here, but

now we do. So we have to have now as a president who's not only a president for all, which I would proudly be, but we have to have a president who's unapologetically a champion for the African American community and for historically underserved communities. So if you go to Operation Restoration twenty twenty dot com will see I'm not

playing around. There's a whole page dedicated a breakthrough, breakthrough for African Americans, breakthrough for immigrants, breakthrough for small business owners. And one of the things that I focus on for black Americans. We need something like a new Marshal Plan. You know, I keep saying, we went over to Europe back in the forties invested twelve billion dollars in restoring their economy, yet we haven't done the same here. So

this is a conversation to me about restitution. We're talking about educational law and forcement and economic reform, specifically now designated to the African American community. We've been generous in saying everything is for minorities, and that's important. You have to keep that, but I think now we have to have specificity. You've got to have funding going directly to black businesses, You've got to have loans going directly to

future homeowners, future black homeowners. So I think this is a time where we have the room, more than wiggle room, to do some very definitive and specific things, especially for African Americans. But again, I'm proud to be a president of all of a multicultural background, and I think that's what's needed right now. You know, you said something very interesting. You know, the reason people should take you serious is the fact that you actually did register with the FEC.

It blows my mind. I've been I said this all last week Kanye wes to not even register, and everybody made it seem like he was really reading for president. Even yesterday they're like, oh, he's dropping out. He never was in Yeah, and that frustrating. Listen, it's beyond frustrating. And what I would say first, what I won't do is accused Kanye of bad intention. Because I've been on that side, people have accused me this is a career move.

I'll tell you it's the opposite. I turned an engagement down to day because they wouldn't even let me mention that I was running. So what needs to be done? If people have to take this seriously, honestly, filling with the FEC is the easiest thing you can do. They're over a thousand people right now who said they're running. What you want to check and see if this person is serious about policy. So we've been here. There is not a major publication black or otherwise that doesn't know

I'm here. So if black voices matter, I'm just saying, it can't be only the voices that are telling the story. You want to hear. Every outlet you can think of knows that we've been here. They've known for months, and they haven't covered this story because this is a two party system and they want to keep it that way. Republicans in damazn't agree on much, but in terms of keeping another voice out of the conversation. In our terms, we're being accused of not only splitting the less, but

splitting the right. When's the next time you're going to have a candidate that can unify and potentially address needs on both sides. You're not going to see that, and that's a dangerous narrative, so you don't see it in the media. So thank you guys for having me on were I was talking to my team. We think this is our first truly national media so we thank you for giving us the space. All Right, we have more with Jade Simmons when we come back. Don't move. It's

to Breakfast Club. Good morning, DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlemagne, the guy we are the Breakfast Club was still kicking it with Jade Simmons. She's running for president for twenty twenty ye as far as being a woman right and running for because we still live in a very sexist country. We saw that when Hillary Clinton was running. We saw that where in Kamala Harris, Elizabeth Warren, just the issues that they had to deal with as they were in

the running to be the nominee. So I want to know what your thoughts are and how you fail being a woman. And that's just the woman, but our black woman running for president in this count I'm gonna tell you what has not been as challenging was being a woman. What's the challenging is the lack of support I've seen

from my own community. So what we've dealt with in the beginning was mostly the narrative about the split vote, which I feel is one of the most the smartest narratives we have that keeps us hiding behind part of the party lines. So when people the people who are flocking to me right now are the unexpected. You know, we had we did the research on who we thought was going to be our base, and so we're excited that many more than we thought are flocking to us.

And now we're getting a lot of support from the younger black community, people who are looking at the two options and can't quite frankly imagine either of them taking us into a new era, who are saying, we need somebody to speak powerfully and unapologetically about issues that affect Black America. So the women piece has been the least

of my concerns. But you gotta remember, Angela, I spend eighty to ninety percent of my time in my career in rooms that are full of people who don't look like me, specifically in the corporate world, rooms that are eighty to ninety percent white men. I know how to speak to these rooms. They hear me. I'm brought in by major corporations to talk about hard hitting issues. They bring me in to make them feel uncomfortable. You see what I'm saying. And that's what we need now, is

we can't settle for anesthesia in this season. That is quote that let us just you know, feel better and get over the pain of Trump. We have to push through this now and actually do better and be better. And we need bold plans of actions for that and a bold voice. And that's when I'm bringing to the table. You know, how does the limited political background put you

at an advantage? You Know, one of the major things that I believe the next president is going to have to have is they're gonna have to be a stellar communicator. They have to hear between the lines, read between the lines. In terms of national conversation as well as international and they're going to have to bring to the table creativity and collaboration. My earlier career as an artist has me prepared for that in ways you can't even imagine the

policies that we've come up with. People are saying, we've never heard of that before. And these are long time political people who say, we haven't talked about it that way. For instance, if you're passionate about being pro choice, and you're passionate about being and you're somebody else who's passionate about being pro life, you never thought you'd see to eye to eye on that issue. But we talk about

being pro humans. In other words, from my pro life friends, if we're serious now about seeing the abortion rate decrease, you can't just say you're outraged about the baby in the room, not care about the babies dying at the border, the people dying at the border, not caring about the knees on the necks of George Floyd, and claim to be for life. If we're pro choice now we have to say, what about reproductive possibility? Can we make sure more black women are not dying in the birthing room?

Can we make sure that there's not higher infertility rates in the VA. These are issues that we can work together on in both seas, and can we take care of those children once they're born and make sure that they're okay Instead of just saying you're right, Angela, how can you say your pro life and you take away snap in the middle of COVID nineteen. It doesn't add up. And so what we're doing is we're holding both sides accountable.

Let's stop the stalemates, which people are still dying. By the way, no matter what you think about immigration, whether you're saying put a wall up or whether you're saying let's help the people, and all those two parties are doing our fighting, people are still dying at the border. And that's what continues to happen when you have the two parties really angling for position, passing bills that are performance art. I know, I'm a concert artist. That's what

they're doing. They're not really producing for us. So, Charlomagne, what you said is the diversity of my background adds to the diversity of this moment. We don't need a politician who's going to talk out of both sides of their mouths. If I came to the table twenty years politician on one side, you better believe the other side immediately thinks I'm against them. What about this fund the police? But are your thoughts on that. You have to be

so careful about these phrases that get hijack. We're talking about realocation of funds that has been a discussion for a long time. Defund the police is nothing radical, but the way that we've allowed already the right to hijack that phrase already takes away from just the marketing and the potential for this to go through powerfully. We're talking about crisis intervention teams. Now, we're talking about sending the

right people to the right situation. We're talking about a cating funds powerfully so that we're not fueling the school to prison pipeline. So that when you tell people put yourself up by your bootstraps, bootstraps and be a productive member of society, they've actually got a pathway to do that. So I believe now we have to talk. We have

to be smart in the words that we use. We have to not allow our rhetoric to be hijacked and manipulated against us, and talk about the issue so people can really be served and communities can really be served. So it's a time ANGELA four A restructuring, a reconstruction of the law enforcement system that includes police brutality. But if we stop there and don't do education and the economy,

then we haven't really gained much grounds. The reason I wanted to have you on is because we all know in these elections, big banks, big bank takes a little bay. They always say you need a billion dollars to get into the White House. But sometimes you have people who run who just need to be heard, who have something to say, and I feel like that's you listen. I

appreciate it. We made a pretty hardcore pledge at the beginning that we would not spend anything close to what has been We think it's just it's a travesty that that much money goes into the attainment of power and everybody else who dropped out to this point, that money's

just gone. And so if these are people who are saying they're serving people, do you know how many homeless rehabilitation centers we could have built with just Donald Trump's war chest, Alan, with Bernie Senders war chest, Alan the Bloomer, come on, here's the thing. People got upset with me because I didn't have a lot of money. You can't be serious, you're not a billionaire. But then they got it set with him because he was a billionaire and got a lot of money. So we don't bow down

the hypocrisy in the season. You know, we always say, if you're wondering where our money comes from, you can go to Operation Restoration twenty to one dot com and donate right there. Because we have pledged to really be a campaign powered by people. You're gonna see me in the streets here gathering petitions. You can already vote for me in forty two other states. You'll be able to vote for me in forty two other states. But we're here in South Carolina. We had to North Carolina because

those are states where we have to gather signatures. And so the funding has come and helps us for each of these trips. But we've pledged, and I've worked with some serious corporations, and many of them are from the demonized industry. So we didn't want to have money in our coffers that would make you have to wonder where I really stood. So that was a hard pledge to take. But we're sticking by it, and we do believe when people hear what we're saying more gravitating toward us and

the political spectrum that we are reaching, it's astounding. We believe it's history making. Give them the website je www dot Operation Restoration twenty twenty dot com. Would we would love your support. We'd also love your help in spreading the word. We're waiting for our d nice moment. You know what I'm saying. We're all overnight, everything just throws up. But we asked you to look into it because we know that the things we're proposing serves more people than

ever before. So we're serious about this and we're not going anywhere, So check us out. I just want to help you keep elevating your voice, Jade, in whatever way, whatever way I can, because you know, I think that you have a very bright future and and sit in a public service. Thank you, Thank you very much. I appreciate it, and I appreciate the time, and it's thank you up. I'd love to come back and really digg

into the issues. Um. I think that's important for people to hear um and also people to hear that I can hold my own when the time comes, so I'm looking forward to it, thank you so much, and hopefully we can do it live in studio next time. The zoom ain't doing it no justice. That'll be wonderful. Thank you, all right, thank you, Jay, all right, take care Breakfast Club. Listen, it's just oh Gosport guys with Angel Angela. It's the

rum report, bast Club. Well, people are going in on James Harden and he is trending and that's all because of a face mask that he was wearing. It has a pro cop symbol on it, which I didn't know that's what that was. I hadn't actually never seen that before. And that is a response to the Black Lives Matter movement. Is the Blue Lives Matter those who displayed the flag and say just to honor the men and women in

blue and fallen officers. But opponents say it has become a symbol of racism, and the co founder of Black Lives Matter LA chapter, Melina Abdullah, said it feels akin to a Confederate flag and so people have been roasting him. Meek Mill said, y'all know, damn well, James Harden don't know what that mass meant because I don't he donate millions in real life to our people. And the story Young Thugs said, just so you know, James Harden is

my brother. By the way, he don't have Internet, so he obviously don't know what's right or wrong if he posted something that's against us. But I hate when rappers get in and where's biz, Like it's can't happen to him, Okay, he said, let them clear it up, and so that's people's reaction. Trey Songs in the meantime, did not have a positive response to the mass that James Harden had on and he basically said, I'm gonna certify clownish. I'll

say it for everybody who's scared too. Yeah. I don't think he knew what it was, are you Yeah, I'll be the first to tell you. I didn't know. I had I had no idea what that mask was. Okay. I didn't study anything hard. And this is and this is a prime example of why we need counseling and not canceling, like you got to educate people. If the

Brothers wearing something that maybe going against a movement. He stands for right, because I know he stands with Black Lives Matter right, so he feels like, you know, that's going against the whole the funded police movement and everything. Whatever it is, it's just like you'll educate the brother, don't just jump on him. Because I had no idea what that mask was. I didn't pay no attention all Right, Now, Kanye, it seems like he's still in this twenty twenty presidential running.

Just filed the second set of documents with the Federal Elections Commission. So, yes, Charlemagne, looks like you might have a second job here. Uh. It's called a statement of candidacy and it shows that he's raised or spent more than five thousand dollars in campaign related expenses. So this birthday party thing could still be happening. Um, okay, Well, Charlemagne is a Secretary of Defense, So so what did you have Kanye secretary? First of all, I don't even

want to lie. I don't want to play like this because nobody under Stan sawcasm no more. And when we said that earlier this week, it became a headline. Kanye did become a headlow man to be Secretary of States. Take it into existence. Why I don't want to do this like I don't want Kanye West to be president of the United States of America. We don't need any more celebrities being presidents of the United States of America. Now.

The only reason I'm even having this conversation is because if he is starting to take steps the register with the FEC, then you know, yeah, it's it's a conversation. But no, we don't. We shouldn't be We shouldn't be fueling this fire. Caitlyn Jenner says that she wants to be vice president and she's already texted him about being his running mate. Would you do the breakfast club from the White House? Chalabigh, shut up because earlier kind of breaking news. If I ever end up in the White House,

you know, I'm not gonna say that. All I'm gonna simply say is, we don't need any more celebrities as presidents of the United States of America. We need qualified people. I really do think they need to change the rules, meaning that they need to change the quiet criteria of what it takes to be a pres like you have to have some type of political experience. You have to at least been a mayor, you gotta be a governor or something. You gotta have to hold some type of

political offers. You should not be allowed to just run just because No. Yo, that Oval office backdrop will be amazing. Rob Kardashian is returning to keeping up with the Kardashians. I'm sure there's a role you could give him as well. I hope you'll get what y'all asking for. I hope the fact that y'all keep fueling these type of fives. I hope y'all get another celebrity in two twenty. I hope y'all go from Trump to Kanye. That's what I

hope for y'all. All. Right now, Monique's lawsuit against Netflix can move forward, and that is according to the US Dish Court judge. They rejected emotion to dismiss her lawsuit against Netflix, so well, you know, but this was all about. She says that she was offered five hundred thousand for a comedy special, but her counterparts like Chris Rock and Dave Chappelle were allegedly offered forty and sixty million, respectively.

Andy Schumer was offered eleven million initially and then it was booted to thirteen million, So you know, discrimination is what she is saying happen. And also she was not able to negotiate. Normally, you are given an opening offer and then you go back and standard practice is for them to come back and try to figure out some type of middle ground when it comes to how much they'll pay you. And that didn't even happen, so that

lawsuit will be moving forward, all right. Cardi B has become the first female artist named as CAPPED Songwriter of the Year twice, so congratulations to her. She's making history this year. Now. Another thing that was happening to Cardi B was Offset gave their daughter Culture an eight thousand dollars Birken bag, and people were having things to say about it on social media. You know, of course they were. I'm sure they expected that. And so here is how

Cardi B defended that gift. Yeah, kids only care about toys and campy. Well, the thing is that kids also go outside. You know, I'm saying, kids go to restaurants, kids go to fancy places. And if I'm fly and Daddy's fly, and then so is the kid. Because if I was looking like a bad, expensive bitch and I have my kid looking like a bum bump, then y'all will be talking. So I'm not at the daddy ball baby or breaking explaining the hype to me between with

these birking bags, what's what's up? I don't own a Birken bag, so I couldn't even tell you. There's super expensive, hard to get. I know, envy. You guys have Birken trees in the house. Yeah, well breaking back, I don't breaking tree boxes. Yeah, my wife has a numerous amount of them. But they're bag that. They're very expensive, they're very hard to getting. People really really like them. I mean people make fake bags of them. But he bought his bag, he bought his daughter bag. It's his money,

it's their money. They're doing them right. They can do what they want to do with their money. Who cares, that's their money. Deal. And the other thing I will say about a Birken bag is don't they appreciating value

like they didn't do? Appreciate about it? Yes? Ye, right, So I don't think it's like the worst thing that you could buy someone because it could be worth a lot of money, especially because this was culture's first birking So if you think about it in that way later on in life, yeah, people up, people were mad, Oh I didn't know that. I didn't even pay no attention.

I know I'm not gonna be mad about what somebody else buys for that child by that little Now, Cardy, I bought that little baby, Michael, cause that have been like Cardy, No, you don't need to have that's the problem, and that's the problem. That's what Cardy said. People like you judge if Cardie got to do it a little Michael cause bad, you're going to cut bad. Can't be mad at that. Nah, you ain't, Cardi. You're not making all that money to still having the Bronx taste for

your baby. But I dropped on the flu bombs for the Birken ain't girl brought up with charlote man. You better not Cardy. You out of the Bronx anyway, And that is your rumor report And fyi, y'all the name brand. She didn't matter. If a cute bag is a cute bag, all right, Angeli ye? Well hey, Angela, ye's bay. She wanted calls for Christmas. Christmas? True if it's cute. So I'm not mad. You see a coach made a come back.

Oh talking, But let me see you. You know what I'm gonna call your bait and I'm gonna tell him you want Michael Cores as long as it's a cute bag for Christmas. And I want to see you wear at you because I want. I have bags that have no name brand at all that I've never even heard of. So I like to shop and buy things that I think are cute, like when I went to South Africa, is buying all kind of bags and things. It's not a name brand. If it's nice, it's nice. I ain't

never see you win none of those bags. You don't be out in these screets. All right, I revote. We'll see you on Monday. Everybody else to People's Choice mixes up.
