It is Friday. Yes, it's Friday, and Nas' album is out today. It's not serious available on title. You know, it's not aailable it's
not it's not available yet. Really, they did that deal with Waves so that people would download the app and then it's only available there. And I don't think it's available on waves here either. I don't think it's wave wave. I don't think it's available in Wave either. It's not That's what they did with all the other albums. Now I don't think you could find it as it yet
I got a chance to hear it. I heard it twice in entirety, and it gave me that feeling when I first when Nas first came out and you had to rush to the store to go by NAS, and you were driving. And today I seen myself speeding. I was speeding listening to the Nas album. Earned that good music check envy. No, I don't. I don't. Production to no production is amazing, sounds great, and just the stuff that Nas, I'm gonna say the curse. The stuff that Nas is spitting just makes you feel good. It put
you in that zone. Not That's always been one of the most socially conscious artists out here, and that doesn't change. Doesn't change. His music always has a lot of socially redeeming value to it. I did some people jumping out the window yesterday. Though we're saying things like this is his best album since it was written. I must knop it, man. I been out twenty two years. I only heard it twice.
It's aged well exactly how you all of a sudden you can say something better than something that's been out twenty two years and you just heard it once at a party, but he's definitely, he's definitely he's being conscious. Like I said, it gives you that feeling of back back when I was a team and we used to nobody used to go to Miami for Fourth of July weekend. We used to all go to Virginia Beach and driving to Virginia Beach, you're going to Jones Beach, which is
out in Long Island or Harlem and Rod. That's what this album gave me. It gave me that feeling this morning. Well, I gotta hear you putting a lot of sauce on you, putting a lot of expectations on it. I haven't heard it yet. I guess you can stream. I heard a couple. I heard a couple of records on Instagram, and I've heard those records before, by the way, but NAS wasn't
on him. NAS wasn't on him. You know. I always tell y'all that the album Kanye let me hear what it was that maybe a month or two Garland, how long ago that was? Like the album that came out, the Yeah album was not the album that he let me hear at all. But a couple of those Nas joints um. Definitely we're on I guess maybe intended to be on Ja's well, one of the one of the ones. Let's let's well, first week before we do that, A Man the Seals will be joining us. I want to

Now what we're talking about you, Well, imagine if you were in the pool with your daughter and other people are in the pool and a white person comes up to you and ask you did your daughter take a bath before getting in the pool, I will possess punch him in the face in the nose. What's it's easy. Now listen, look at y'all pulling up a nadre yea. Let's pull up a NAS rect Know
you got a record off the album. I do what I do like I do it for Tea the clean we hope. So what's cleaned it up? Here? Cops shot the kid? That's the record I heard from. Well, this is NAS featuring Kanye West. No NAS on it, but I can't wait to hear it. Cops shot the kid. Okay, slick rick sample, it's the Breakfast Club a happy ed MoU bark wo Okay, And yes, that is the record
I heard a couple of months ago. NAS wasn't on it though, but dropped on a clues bombs to that tough tune Gez like a erfect person to have on that record. Was not Jones. That record is tough tune, tough tune. All right. Well let's get in some front page news. Now, let's talk about this father and daughter that was in the swimming pool. Well, no, it's actually
a mom. No mom and daughter. Yes, So what happened is they were at the Weston Hotel in Pasadena and a white man confronted a black female swimmer at the pool and Pasadena, California. Now here's what happened. They showered, okay, coming out because that's what the rules. But you didn't ask anyone else. You ask me. You're doing right that goddamn pool. There are three other people over there. There are three other people over there. They're right over there
right now. They've been over there when you asked me there there, I don't have to should have asked the white ass, if you watch this funky ass this morning? Right? You come up to a woman and her daughter and asked him if they shout y'all taking all that energy to the wrong people. Man, I told y'all Michelle Obamas. Then when they go low, we go high, but not me. And and God takes a right to the floor with him. Woman's her employee. Was he just an employee? He just
was there. He tried to say that he was a health inspector the hotel, that he's not a health inspector and he's not an employee of the hotel. The hotel staff was actually on the woman's side, saying that what he did was inappropriate. I said, did you watch your funky ass? Because I smelled mannis who left the man he's out too long. But they were the only black people in the pool, so I guess he felt like, I don't believe in violence, but sometimes you just gotta
slap the inshot of somebody. Something's got to give you the same endage they give you. Though. That's all show you're also nice for now in Arizona, the Arizona Republican Party is calling on a state lawmaker to resign. And this is what David Stringer, who was a member of the Arizona House of Representatives said. He said, there's not enough white kids to go around immigration, But did you know that white people make up certainly presented the populations,
plenty of white kids to go around. Well, apparently he doesn't like immigration because it's a threat to the white kids that are here in the United States. Oh, they definitely listen. They definitely have the fear of a brown planet. It used to be fear of a black planet, but they definitely have fear of a brown planet. Well, even
the governor thinks that David Stringer should resign after those comments. Now, David Stringer has responded and said, my political opponents have taken fifty one seconds out of a sixteen minute speech to try to distort my message and mislead votes. All right, Target, this is very racial this morning, all of these stories. But Target has pulled their baby Daddy greeting card from
stores after the customer complained. Now this is what happened, uh, Takeisha Saunders was in Dallas and she was looking for a card that represented her, a card with a black couple for Father's Day, and she couldn't find one. Instead, the only card that she saw with an image of a black couple said baby Daddy on the front of it. She said, you cannot be serious. Target. Really this was the only Father's Day card that featured a black couple
and that was it. So they didn't apologize. At American Greetings, they said that could be you know me, stop and see things a little different. That sounds like a great greeting card to me. But you don't they need more black cards, Like my mom is the queen of black cards. Like for every holiday she's gonna get a black card and if she can't find one, she will color the faces that a white black, like that's my mom. Those Mahogany Greetings. She tried to specifically, all I'm saying, just
don't disrespect the baby daddies. Okay, some some people I heard, just baby daddies and mayby want a greeting card too. So why do this dad get a card and husbands get a card? Why can't a baby daddy? Why don't you have a card specifically for baby daddy? What's the shame that there's a photo picture of only a black couple and that's the only baby. She didn't see the card with the baby daddy that had the white couple
on it. Well, American Greetings responded, They said, thank you for raising this concern and bringing it to our attention. This card was intended to be a playful husband card, but we have notified the product team that it missed the market. What is the saying side of it? Though, you ain't telling me enough. What is the saying side of it? I don't know. But on the front it just says, baby daddy, you wish you would hear more, happy father, baby daddy, wish she was here more. Thank
you for the child support. It is appreciated. I don't see the problem with that. I actually think that baby daddies need to get that card. Man, goodness, I love to see some baby daddies get that. But at the same time, you love to see some black couples on you know, Father's Day regular cards. Right, Yeah, it's black baby daddies out there, Baby daddies out there, some women out there that would love to send some baby daddy to come card on Sunday. Okay, a Father's Day Sunday.
All they all don't deserve a Father's Day card. Some of y'all deserves. Great up baby daddy card. Thank you for being a good baby daddy. I'm sure this is coming every month, available and doing your weekend visions. It would open up the phone lines and talk about it. Eight hundred five five one on five one. Which you be offended with a baby daddy car? You shouldn't be if you if you you know what the only way you should be offended by that is if you are if you know, damn, I could be more than a
baby daddy. Eight hundred five eight five one oh five one. Would you be offended by a baby daddy car? And baby mamas? Would you buy this car for your baby daddy? God, damn right there. Thank you for the child's report every month. Thank you for making your weekend visits on time. Okay, my goodness, eight hundred five eight five, one oh five one. It's the Breakfast Club the morning, the Breakfast Club. Hello, who's this? Are you doing this? Lamar? Lamar? You're a
baby daddy. Bro, Now I'm a father or your father? Okay, See it's a difference, That's what I'm saying. But I can't. I can't. I can't get no baby daddy card. Like you know what I mean, Like it doesn't sound right, but you don't deserve one. Father. I can tell you don't deserve one because you said you are fathers between a father and a baby daddy, correctly. I appreciate you guys at your Father's day, sir. Yes, Anthony, Yeah, you're a baby daddy. I'm a baby daddy. Would you appreciate
a card? Uh? Yeah? But if I don't get one, I know, I'm just a baby daddy, too bad? Exactly. Finally is something for baby daddy's man, right, because you know what I looked at it like this, I got a daughter. I'm married and I got a daughter. She's not my biolops for a daughter, but she called me her dad because I raised her. Now I got a son out here with a female that really, I don't really have no real interaction with it because of the situation.
So I'm just her baby daddy, you know what I'm saying. And I'm if my son one of the card, I would accept it. But at the same time, I understand what's going on. I'm a father to this young lady that I have in my life. I'm gonna get a Father's Day card from her. So if I'm a baby daddy to him or to her, it is what it is. It's a true who that is. That's just my baby baby daddy, daddy. That's all. I love you, man, I love y'all. Y'all stand up, is y'all keep it real
and that's what it's all about. And I'm just keeping it real. I'm a baby daddy, it is, but it is my man. See, at least you know your place an ego system? He does. Hello, who's this? This is Teresa? It was that's Eco system, that Eco system ego. Hey, Teresa. Yeah, I'm calling about the baby daddy card. I want to know where to get one. Oh. I don't have any children, but I just think that the car was actually probably
written by a white person. If y'all read the inside it says you're a wonderful husband and father and I'm so grateful to have you as my partner, my friend, and my baby daddy. So basically, they don't even understand what the baby daddy is and the carda needs to be care. That's just that's that sounds to me like just one of those funny cars because everything then my wife will be playing around and she'll be like here with my baby daddy. You know what I mean. That's
what that sounds like. That's not like some human. It's written by a person who say by Policia, and they don't even know who Folicia. By the way, a lot of black people don't know who Felicia is either. Well generation yeah exactly, but thank you mama. Y'all know who Folicias. Y'all know who Policia? Hello, who's Alicia Pia was? It wasn't even a show. See, y'alln't even know look at that see Friday Friday. Yeah, that's what it was. I knew it was one of them. Hello, Hello, good morning,
good morning. This is to hey toy. We're talking baby daddy cars. What do you think? I love the idea. I wish I would have known about it. I would have soul went down, answered the story and bot them food. He took it off the shelf. I think it's a really good idea. You probably still got time. I get what she's saying and where she's coming from about it, and have a little you know most time, you know choices and things like that. But I liked that idea. I think it would have made a lot of money.
I liked the idea too because there is a difference between baby daddies and fathers. I know a lot of baby daddies right now who pay their child support every month and still don't get to see their kids every nothing. And the baby mama should just send them a card to say thank you for the child. This guy, I guess wasn't for just the baby daddy, was somebody who was a husband and a father. But they this mahogany cars,
they're hard to find. Like I said, my mom will go out of her way to find the mahogany card. If she can't white painting brown, Well send e cards now though, even buy cars in the store. Take them off the show see the gull World to produce something. Okay, I got not deal eight hundred five one oh five one. Now Angela reported that people were upset about these baby
daddy cards. Yes, people who are upset that they had cards in Target and the only card with an African American couple on it for Father's Day said baby daddy. All right, well, how do you feel about that? Are you offended by the baby daddy cards? Call us now, it's the breakfast club. Good morning, the breakfast Club. Hello, who's this? It's raving, good morning morning. I just think it's crazy that they have the baby daddy card. But they're not wrong for it because charge definitely had a
baby Mama card for Mother's Day. Really really, yeah, they didn't had no pictures on it though, But Charlotta Magne happy on my birthday because he got the same birthday. Hey, June twenty nine, Cancer gang, what's happening to equal opportunity? They said that baby mama car gotta have baby daddy card. Hello, who's this? Good morning to day? How you guys going? Good morning? Jay? Hey, I got very old with a
baby daddy card. I think people in this world is way too sense with this, Like can we have a little bit of fun? Everything gotta be everything gotta be politics correct. They're trying to make the world that way, sir, Target, there's only one store you do if you can't find a conscient close to a different store. Why we gotta everything gotta be old baby dad. Okay, people with baby daddies enjoy it, have fun. I don't see, I don't want I don't see what the problem is. We keep
making everything razier. Why do you have to make an apology as a company. There's nothing to apologize for us. You took a little mark in the challenge. You tried. It didn't work. Sometimes things work, sometimes dope, But it's not that serious in my opinion. Nobody's like protesting the
store or anything. They just took that one particular card off the shelves, and I will say context matters though, because they said the inside of the card says, you know, to a wonderful husband, a wonderful father, and then at the end it's like my baby daddy. So it's like a joke. So I'm upset because I thought it was just a straight up baby daddy card, like you know me, which you was here. There's cards out, he laughed, Joe. There's a lot of funny cards out there. Why we
get like people get so sensitive because it's baby daddy. Okay, everybody is a baby. I don't care if you gotta wring on your finger or not. You have a baby and you're a daddy. You're a baby daddy. Just live with it, can we stoy? White? Sir? I am a husband and a father, Sir, d I got a wife. Oh my god, a baby daddy, period, baby, my baby daddy. Who dad is? Baby daddy? I'm looking at I'm looking at other baby daddies because this one that says you're
my favorite baby daddy. That's dope. That if you if you're a woman and you got fat, baby daddy got dope. I want to know I'm your favorite baby daddy. That's crazy. Hello, who's this helf? Helfasa? How do you feel about the baby daddy songs? Mama, Um Carl, I called my baby daddy my son's father. I don't like to turn baby daddy, but I just wanted to let you all know what the inside of the car said. Straighten it up a little bit. So it's a car for a husband, and
it says you're a wonderful husband and father. And I'm so grateful to have you as my partner, my friend, and my baby daddy happy father. Say so, context matters then that that's it's actually just a funny card. Like it's a humorous card, right, that's what it is. Wasn't funny? It is funny us? Well if't kind of Yeah, you said you do that to your husband, right, No, I don't have a husband, but I don't call my baby daddy baby daddy. I called him my son father, right cool?
All right, my wife does that to me playing all the time. They have a card here that says I ain't your baby's daddy. They have another great that's a great one too. Oh my goodness, listen to context matters man. All right, well eight hundred five eight five one on five one. You could get it the fit chess at anytime. We got rumors on the way. Yes, guess who just became a US citizen. I didn't even know he wasn't eligible to vote. Would tell you he just went through

The pants sacker put plans in action to lay claim the Pan African made it happen.

It felt like the white man that owned the house, performed, was like a ghost around him and it's dope. All that sounds great, but I want you to keep that same energy. Okay, all people having boycotting good music albu month, keep that same energy because Kanye produced the whole album. Okay, Well, you can

When we come back, Amanda Seals will be joining us the Homie Amanda Seals. Variety named her one of the top ten comics to watching
twenty and eighteen just yesterday. I know some of you guys are just waking up, so we're gonna kick it with a mand Seals when we come back. Let's play the naso we played earlier. We got that NAS featuring Kanye West by Wait. I told y'all a couple months ago when Kanye first was playing me music, this is one of the records he played, but NAS wasn't on it. And I'm glad that this is a NAS record now, all right, so every person to have it. We'll play Top of the Hour and we'll get that on and
a Manda Seals will be here. P Envy, Angela Yee, Charlemagne, the guy we all the breakfast club. We got a special guest in the building, the multi talented the Seals. Hi, guys, Hey, it is so interesting to watch a Manda just continue to grow. Man, it's people out here that be talking to us like, we don't know Amanda Seals. Yes, because kids in general like like you're new to them, Like, yeah, I'm new to me. You think Instagram is calling a
big big I don't know. I don't want to call a resurgence, but yeah, I mean two days ago was the anniversary of my Caitlin Jenner moment two years ago. No, that was the two days ago. Yeah, that was like the one year anniversary. And I know some people might be like, how you got a one year anniversary, but like people, yeah, somebody on Twitter was like, oh that was that was a year ago. But that changed my life.
So because after that happened, it went from like, oh, you want a TV show to like thank you sister, thank you queen, you know, and it went from like oh, you just somebody who'll be talking to like, oh, when you're in real spaces where things need to be said, you'll say it, that's amazing because we've known you for so long. I don't look at it it's like Wow, that changed a man's life because I look at it
as like this has always been amator always. Well my mom, who is West Indian and therefore does not acknowledge anything,
uh your excellence. Um. When it happened, I was like, yo, like I'm going viral, like you know, this is like a thing, and she was like, I don't really know about all that, you know, And I was really trying to downplay it until we were in the mall and we were in an Apple store and three people came up to us, and it was a white chick, a straight black guy, and a gay black guy and they all came up and we're like, thank you so much for what you said, thank you so much for what
you said, thank you sis for what you said. And my mom was like, oh wow, no, I don't kid, people knew it. I have to go watch the clip. I'm like you, I never watch the people like you've been trying to sunnate, but no, I think, um, it was really cool too, because I think a lot of people in Hollywood got to see, like off rip that I'm a real one. And you know, not everybody a real one. It's tough to balance that. Tough to balance real and it's tough to balance funny, tough to balance
intellect intellect intellectually. Put some intellect on it, artists. I mean, if I'm speaking pacifically, no it's um no, it's not. I mean, I'm just that's me the agent and stuff ever hit you like, could you pull back a little bit? No, they'd be like, good, yeah, anybody can tell a man then pull back when no, I mean, if you want to get cursed out short, definitely cursed out. No, that's
not true. I don't know everything. Yeah, and if it's something I think that you feel like it's productive or it's coming from a good place, yeah, you'll at least take it into consideration. Nobody should be scared to tell you something. And I have like people around me that know me so I and then I trust so like I know that if they're bringing something my attention, they're not doing it for any other reason then because they genuinely have a good intention for myself. No, I don't.
I'm not stubborn like that. I mean, I'm really a best idea wins kind of person. Because you know, we all have emotions and whatnot. So sometimes you really do like get in the emotions of things. And I've been really working on thinking things through and taking out emotion, et cetera, et cetera. So it's like sometimes you need someone to be like aaaa, But I don't. I don't think it's about holding back as much as just like learning how to uh temper things in the right audience.
You know, like, you don't gotta find you don't gotta find a different way to be. You just got to find different versions of real And you're on tour right now. You're going toward July thirty first, we're going towards July thirtieth through August fourteenth, ten cities, and it's like it's a dream. No we finished. We air August third, We
are air August twelfth. Yeah, no, we finished. I mean this is my baby, Like it's gonna be nice on tour while the show is also back right towards the end of it the show because it wasn't honestly, it's just the way things land. I mean, to be honest, Like the beautiful thing is to be able to be on a show like Insecure, but also have my own entity. And I think a lot of folks like when they get a shot, they forget about their own stuff, you know, And it's like, no, the shot is to help propel
and continue to motivate your own stuff. Like, because I've been able to be on Insecure, it has only legitimized, you know, my messaging. It's only you know, giving me peace of mind in terms of money so that I can like focus on the creativity and with smart, funny and black, it's not just like a live show with a band and folks being on stage being funny. It
has a purpose. I want you to learn why you laughing, and so you know, I just really always tell people like, don't ever work harder for somebody else than you're gonna work for yourself. Like that's always the thing that I see people doing. My mom our parents that have done that forever, Like you know, they work and work and work and work, and then they be looking at you like, oh, you like like your job, like you like like, that's not how it's supposed to be. I'm like, no, that's
how it's gonna be. Smart, Funny and black. I've said it a million times. That's the best game show that's not on television. It don't need to be on television. I sold it and then I took it back, and I sold it again, and I took it back because I realized that the value of the show would be diminished by putting it in a space where people are in control of it that don't care about its value
or about what it can do for the people. There's other projects that I'll sell, but with Smart, Funny and Black, I realize that this is really a show that needs to be built up from the ground up with the people, you know, like we are going to crowd fund eventually, but like doing these tours and y'all coming out and buying tickets in these cities and selling these shows out and getting merch which you can get right now at smart Funny and Black dot com Backslash bookstore, and as
you can see by the shirt she has on as well, right now we go. I did. I had an exact telling me that they funny and black, and exact told me that an exact was like, to be honest, we're trying to make a smart funny in white. You can't tell them. That's always a conversation. We would go in the room and it's like the show has already been in existence for over a year at the time, like we've been doing it every month. It's the most turnkey
project ever. Just put us on the stage, Mike, put the mics, I mean, put the cameras, get the audience, let's go. And they were like, but are like, where, like are there white people? And here's the tea? When I first created it, it was like, no, it's smart, funny and black as the content. You don't have to
be black to be on the show. But I've since gotten over that, like why can't we just have an authentically black space, Like I don't see anything wrong with that, And I think that it's really important because I feel like right now a lot of people's energy is going into like we need to we need to fight the outside forces, fight the outside forces, and I think that's important.
But in a multi pronged approach to change, I think you need to have different, different energies going in different directions. And my thing is we need to not necessarily from my work, is not to necessarily be fighting the outside forces, but like building up our inside forces, like we need to be enriching each other, you know. And I think we put so much energy into trying to fight with like folks that don't give it. They don't give a damn about black people. They don't even really care about
white people. They care about money, you know, Like they don't even know what they care about. So it's smart, funny and broad. Can't you just call it smart and smart funny? He's smart and funny? Like what about that? Nah? Nah? Nah? I have a matter as in African American studies. I get to put it to use every night that we do this show, and it's all about, you know, creating a place for folks to come through and laugh and get get excited about blackcas She back culture in the
black experience. And you can be any race, ethnicity, gender class to come to this show. You just gotta know your place. You can come and learn or laugh or both. Yeah, we got more with A Man Decials when we come back, don't move. It's a breakfast club. Good morning, the breakfast club Morning. Everybody is DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlomagne, the guy we all the breakfast club. A Man Decials is in the building. Ye all right, somebody um tweeted out.
Easta Ray teases season three and Secure will be about black masculinity, a topic. I bet she thinks she's an expert on ball follow the trend of other prominent black women produces, directors, writers in filmmaking and promote some sort of efforry about black men. And j Ellis responded, as a black man who was a part of the first two seasons of Visa Ray in the very diverse writing staff of Insecures work, I'd have to say, shut up, toxicity is showing. I mean, that's really bottom line, Like
it's it's toxic masculinity. I mean, I had somebody on my Instagram yesterday say, like, there is a movement against black men, against straight black men, and I'm like, there have definitely been movements against straight black men, but it
ain't from black women women, especially not right now. I think the movement, if anything, is to try to push straight black men into growing up and into stepping into a new space of acceptance of their own selves and of emotion end up going to therapy so that they're not consistently in you know, it's not even post traumatic stress syndrome disorder, it's like current magic stress to sort of being being a black man in this country, you know,
so that they're not dealing with survivor's remorse for like winning in the midst of like a bunch of dudes who haven't been able to like we just already. I'm just like, I know a lot of black women are really involved in wellness in a way that we never have been before. Like wellness is a huge movement and black in the black women community, and I don't think it's reached over that far into the black mail community in the same way. And so we are we are
getting ahead. You know, a lot of women have been telling me recently they have PTSD because of relationships they've had. Hell yeah, I feel like there really has to be something to be said for like being a man of your word or a person of your word. And I feel like too many brothers like that doesn't apply to what they connect with women on. It's like they will stick to that when it comes to their barber. I'm
not seeing on my barber. I have to go to the same I don't care where that when it comes, it's true, like they'll stay to that when it comes to money, you know what I'm saying, Like, Yo, Like if I told you I'm gonna pay you, I'm gonna pay you, and they demand it back. But when it comes to that with women, like yeah, I said that we're committed and I'm not gonna cheat on you, it's like but I'm like, though, you know, I'm man, and sometimes I gotta just grow up and get out of
this phase. And both of y'all know, both of y'all, I haven't cheated this. It was October twenty sixteen. I'm done the fact that you can name the date what happens. It was too recent like your chip. By the way, you haven't I've heard you say too, though, like you I yeah, see y'all the rock lane with the faithful male community, And I really like that because it's like it's like making faithfulness cool and that's for black folks,
Like we need that, Like that's what's my money. And black is really on, Like we're gonna make education and being learned and being about this beauty and blackness cool, not that it's not, but like just completely trying to elevate that. So I love that y'all do that because there's and this isn't no way to say that there aren't like women who are shady, Like I feel like whenever I, as a woman talk about this on my Instagram,
like men are always like what about women? And I'm like, I don't date women, I'm not in the vagina business. Stop expecting meeting. But I just think that there's there really is such a pushback from men, a lot of black men on women who simply want to be holding them accountable and want to empower them and intend instead of like meeting the challenge, it's looked at like you're trying to like put me down. It's like nah, I'm trying to show you, like, Yo, you could be this
like rise up. No. I want to talk about because when I talk to students in school, sometimes two stories that I talk about. I talk about my story coming up. I talk about Charlemagne story because it's a story and wow, I'm kind of I was giving somebody by it is the truth. But I also talking about your story. You know you do, Yeah, absolutely, because I've seen it. I seen it up close and personal. And the fact that you know you never gave up, but you always kept
that smile on your face. So to see the success. Talk about that as far as that grind, because what you put into this industry, a lot of people don't see. They only see the insecure. Now that's true. Wax was out there talking about Yo. I thought you just talked hella. Shit, I didn't know that you was like doing mash you got podcast, you got. I was like Wax. He's like,
I just I didn't. I'm like, Wax, you literally came to my show at Caroline's that was sold out and I did an hour and a half and you killed Yeah, like you were there. He's like, Yo, my bad seals wormhole. One day like when he turned me he goes a man to find his hell. But yo, who want to wake up to this every morning? And you know that?
And the irony of that is that if I'm with you, you're waking up to every morning, Well you're not learning people have I give you a quick But it's just that it's so crazy how people like have such a misperception about like what you put out. Like I'll have people on my on my Instagram all day like, oh you know you don't you you don't have a man in that And it's like I have suitors all year long and I'm like, no, no, no, you know. So that's not that's not accurate. But that speaks to the ground.
So I'm gonna talk to the grind because it actually correlates with the personal life because I really do believe that, like I will meet somebody. So it kind of continues to drive me in a positive way to continue to be hopeful and give people opportunities, et cetera. With the grind, I've always believed, like in my actual talent, I always knew my worth, but you have to know your market value.
And so people don't understand the difference between that and that's how you get in the way of like advancing. I never gave up because I had so many people around me also that never would let me give up. You were one of those people. You were one of those people. I met Charlemagne later, But at the end of the day, it's like, like you have become one of those people in this phase of my life where like you'll be like, yo, keep I did not want to put my bends on my Instagram because I was like,
I don't want to look Flossie. I don't want to look like I'm trying to stunt on people. I don't want to be home pulling up at the end of Imaginary Players, say was at a four point four point six, even gots like I didn't want to be that person. But then Maine was like, you have to put it up because you got that being your complete self, Like you got that without without having to forsake any of your integrity. And you need to be able to show people that you can get what you want, whether it's
material or not, by sticking to your guns. And so I think that's one of the main issues. And also there was a certain point where it was just like what you know, I have a degree, but I don't have a desire to do anything else. I've always known that this was the space I need to be in.
I just needed to find my way to it. Like for atensive purpose, it's my Funny and Black is my first hit, you know, like I've been creating stuff for a long Yeah, it's even on many of my platforms, and like even like but we all knew that it was gonna pop off. You just you're still having it's gonna pop pop, but you you somehow have to remember that, like it's developed meant so that when you do pop,
you're ready. You're ready, like I know, like right now, like by the time we did this my Funny in Black, I already know how to write in my comedy style. So I can write this my Funny and Black. I can write a whole two hour show in an hour. And to your point, people give up because they're like DM yin turning over yet, And it's like I think a lot of that too, is like people think that they're owed the turnover, like they're like I put in
the work, Like why hasn't it happened? And that's when you have to really really step back and I We've talked about this before. In year, like I went to therapy and I had to really step back and say, like, Okay, what are the ways that I'm getting in my own way? And I think that, you know, there's a certain stinkness that I had. It was unintentional, and I think there's a certain level of like frustration that gets put out there because you're just like why am I having to
like explain these things? And it's really not trying to be at anybody. It's just your own internal work, you know, carrying itself out. But the reason I say it's so important to know your market value versus like your own personal value is because that's what drives you crazy, right when you know it's like homeboy, your friend Kanye, is these better than me? Like you really feel that way, Like you heard what I said and it's, um, it's all these folks out here and winning, and you like,
what am I doing wrong? And you have to really look at yourself and be like, well, I know when I first got to LA, I had to really remember I had to really take a look at like what is the value of the work I've done. I've done a lot of stuff, but nothing had real, like poignant like market value. It was valuable to me, you know, but it didn't have enough value in terms of like credits for agents et cetera, et cetera, and these things that people think, you know that these things that do matter.
And so what was great about becoming a part of the cast Have Be Insecure was that it legitimized. It was it was a credit that was legitimate to like other people, you know, and you need that, but you have to understand like that that's part of the game.
And a lot of us get we get bent out of shape and we quit because we don't understand the game and we don't understand the difference between knowing your worth but also knowing that there's like other value to other projects and that you got to get in certain spaces to increase other people's perception of your work. All right, we got more with A Man the Seals. When we come back, don't move. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning morning. Everybody is DJ Envy Angela Yee, Charlomagne, the guy. We
are the Breakfast Club. A Man de Seals is in the building. Chalmagne. You mentioned Kanye he posted about you, you know, Charlemagne toom we knowne. Kanye was front row center when I did Deaf Poetry Jim in two thousand and one. Like if you watch it on YouTube, like he's sitting right there, like and you know, I mean you Kanye John Legend and yeah, from when I was doing MTV. It's a very interesting time right now. Lines
are being drawn. I think people are really showing, they're showing themselves, and they're showing what is valuable to them, you know. I think it's interesting how like we have absolutely really been very specific about like who we choose to criticize about their allegiance with forty five and who we choose to let slide. And when it comes to black women, I feel like we have been completely like hardlined about it, you know. But when it came to this guy, I don't know if it's because he does
good songs or you like his sneakers or what. It's like, folks were very easy to simply just be like, well, you know, it's not that bad. You know, it's not it's not it's not that Jesus trying to express himself and have freedom of speech dangerous. It's dangerous. And we when we undermine the level of danger that is associated with someone like Kanye West openly supporting forty five and then his wife openly you know, supporting and literally being
on camera and saying like, oh, Kanye legitimized him. Like you have to acknowledge that. And when I see my peers and people I know that are just like, well, it's fine, let's just go to Wyoming and like just live it up and dance it up, it says to me like, Okay, if you're a journalist and you had to go there for work, I can respect that. But if you went there to be cool, you are part of the problem. The music business that we are in.
It's in a new era right now, you know. You see these label cats have been there for twenty years and like this is a new era, like you know, and I'm like, it's coming up, it's coming home. Yet, because you're no longer just an artist, like you are an individual, that it has more than your music to market and to you know, connect you to people, et cetera.
So with that being said, we have to acknowledge also that like for a long time, the music business and we all know this has been like this secret society you know, like when Me Too hits the music business and it got be no more ybout already, it's kind of it. It's because the mind has already started to take place of like, no, you can't say it because it's against you know, the black man, and you know it's gonna put people down. I mean, that's what they
tried to do with the Russell thing, you know. But at the end of the day, it's like when you start hearing people like police start speaking out, you know, and you start hearing people like myself speaking out. I haven't even said my stories, you know, you you know all of us. I mean, Reese got it Tyler the other day and was like, Reese is the artist that was on I see my best friend produced her first album about a story too that he said I was dead. I was like, I don't think you can bring that
up on camera, sir, Oh sorry, are you okay? Well tell me after because I want to know was with me? Yeah, and I did nothing. A moment of a guy being trash saying something you gotta share with the room. Guys. Oh you are right there. You were right dear, don't remember you were sitting right there. I'll tell you okay. You would say I was in a situation, right, you would put me in the situation, Oh my god, but not in a bad way, like you had to best
of intentions. No, no, no, you had the best of intentions. You had the best of intentions. But to your defense, it was so normal for this person to speak to me in that way that it didn't even rattle you. I remember having to do the mind work with myself, like this is not okay, Like I know that it seems like it's okay by the surroundings, But no, I wasn't a meeting. I don't, I can't. I can't explain the situation I was in a meeting. I don't feel like,
do you see what you see? What just happened? Because I don't feel like dealing. I don't want to have to deal with these women. Don't say. That's why we don't say, because I don't want to have to deal with it. And now we have these internets and get on the internets, and their little internet thugs come behind and be like, he don't want to la, la la, and you're just like you know what. I should have
just kept it to myself and gone to therapy. So we Envy had brought me into a meeting for a job, and while we were at the meeting, the individual was talking to me and he was saying that I should change my name. So that was most of the meeting, like him being like, nah, you shouldn't be a Manda diva, a Mana diva and cool. Nobody's gonna listen to you. I'm like, but people are already listening to me. Whatever, And somehow or another we got on the topic of
people like sleeping their way into positions. It wasn't about me, like it was about like a specific incident. And this person who is an executive that is interviewing me to hire me for a job, was like, well when you go me, Mby was sitting right next to him like this, y'all have to know, like Envy has been a brother, like Mby has looked out like I remember in one
of those moments of the grind being too much. I always tell the story of like I was on Twitter just like lamenting and Envy called me and was like, which, which what's on stap Like stop crying and create some opportunities for yourself, And you gave me a blueprint and even though like I wasn't able to turn those opportunities into like big things, it gave me hope, and hope as a whole other currency that you and ride. You know, but it don't even matter how talented you are, like
me two hits everybody like, it's just individual. That individual will be tagging me. That individual will be Amanda seals in me and I'll bet you money. He don't remember saying that, right said it so much like, oh damn, I said that. I've seen him saying on camera. We all have yeah, but we all said he said it on a TV show to another individual. Okay, nothing, You're never the first, You're never after you just told her, I heard you your way to the top. Why would
you say that to somebody? I mean I've had I've had like a rapper literally like say to me. I was like, hey, I'm in town, Um, you know, would love to link up. And I think maybe I was naive because I really just thought we have working relationships. And this person's response to me was I want to see your show me with your fingers. Oh geez if if I'm trying to go right, okay, Like it's not gonna be like some surreptitious you know, like you got to figure out the rhythm. No, it's gonna be a
very clear distance movement. This is a picture of Charlotte Manson and on Wendy Williams lap. That's inappropriate, that's inappropriate. Appro you know I always told this short. Quincy Jones asked me to sit on his lap and I did it, and it was like you're in the tere and you know you're talking like he got lemon heads in his mouth, you know, twenty eight? When when when do you? I said, laugh,
I had to be like twenty seven conversation. He comes sit here, yes, yes, exactly what we're supposed to do. He was like, come sit on my lap. And I had told him that I love basslines and that's like my favorite part of the song. And so when when when I sat on his last he went in my ear and went for kidding, I don't remember. I go to therapy for self, like you gotta hippurge expunge that hook. So between what Calie said yeah and Kanye producing the
whole album, are you listening to the Naz's album? Nah, not at all. You know, if a man does not listening the NAS you know that serious like Manda is head Nasa Manas is the subject of the third uh portion. My my Master's thesis was in three parts, and it was a thesis on the rap album as a continuation of the African American narrative. And Unas was a huge part of that because the first part was, you know,
just explaining. The second part was I broke down Biggie's life after Death record by record in comparison to Native Son. And the third part was I interviewed a number of individuals who I considered to be hip hop you know, experts from Beverly Bond to Quality, etc. And everyone kept saying, if you're gonna do this and talk about the narrative, you have to talk about NAS. He's one of the greatest MC storytellers of all time, you know, so he was a huge part of that. He has a blurb
on the back of my poetry book. You know. But like y'all know, like I really am hit. I've had like I warm up when I'm going on stage, like my warmer upper is uh. I never brag how real I keep it because it's the best secret. I RockA veste prestigious Cuban link floded, Jesus and Alex's watching Kathleen regis.
My actions are one with the seat. I could do the whole thing so like that, and we all know that one of the greatest verses of all time is through the lights, cameras in action, Glamagods and gold unfold
to scroll, planing season sand the global. When I'm to cease, but then the beast that rides like Easteconka, peace leaving savages, the Roman, the street, slip on the run, police giving me, giving my gun trick, my wisdom with the system that imprisoned my son, smoke a gold leaf, a whole heat nonchalantly. I'm raunchy, but things I do, it's really never haunts me.
While funny sounds, rolling the power, rooster heads, profile on a bus to rock Aside, holding wheat inside of within miles on the pretty things in life, props is a truth. Thus life, it's like a cycle. Let's come home, someone gowen, do a bullet, come back and do the same again. From the womb to the tomb, I presume the unpredictable gun, salute life rapidly. That's the ritual. But he was beating his wife, so I can't listen to the album. DAMNOK.
We appreciate you sharing your intellect. Thank you for coming through my intellect this morning. All right, well, thank you for joining us. Thanks guys, Stills is the Breakfast Club. Good morning, the Breakfast Club. Morning. Everybody is DJ MVY, Angela Yee, Charlomagne the guy. We all the Breakfast Club. Let's get to the rumless. Let's talk, NBA Young Boy, it's about report Angela yet found the Breakfast Club. But
NBA Young Boy had to share some news. He said, I want to be the first to tell y'all officially found out Baby Kate isn't my child, but the man I am. I'm going to keep raising him like he's mine. I can't lie at her to find out the truth. But life goes on now. The reason he found out is apparently his son's mother had him take a DNA test because she was trying to get child support, and
that's how it all went down. NBA Young Boy's mom, Randa, actually went on Instagram live and addressed that she does still love little baby can no matter what I showed them, gonna little Baby Kake and everybody be coming something me and her mama own you know nick talking bush about staff. It wouldn't start fount And just like they said, we ain't claiming take tabs a mother lasted. I wouldn't claiming no baby if I didn't knew it was man. She took the DNA tists and take ended up being ours.
They got on the internet talking about Starff first, before they even knew that mother girl. They've been talking about baby. Kate was ugly and he was distant. He was daddy day baby, cute baby. It ain't even bout the mother. True. I don't care if babycame man or not mother man. He's still it's my baby, very very eloquently stated. And y'all mad that talking got baby daddy cars, baby mama cards. So he found out biological play. Yeah that's young boys.
Mom okay? Happy? Or was she not happy? I'm sure she's not happy to find out the child's not biologically his, but she is saying that they will still take care of baby care. I got plenty of people, and I know plenty people who've been in that position. They've you know, raised the young child from like three to four to five. You don't stop loving them. You can just cut that off. So yeah, they just continue to do it, but you
continue to pay in everything. Um, I don't know if they have to continue to pay, but they continue to love the child, to take care to child. You can't blame a child. They're not happen to Neo too. Didn't Neo find out the child? We still had to pay the child's pool on the child? Was just a song, all right? Well, the game has announced he as a new Lebron James inspired strain of weed. Now he posted it on social media, of course, he said new strain alert.
Welcome you to enjoy my new strain La Broun James. So I guess it's supposed to be loved Bron James. It's a strain inspired by my city and then trying to bring King James to the Lake Show. So that's going to be coming to a dispensary near you. That's what does that mean? You got some new weed and they're trying to get Lebron to come to lay So maybe that strain of weed will encourage him to want to come. If you smoke it nine times, it'll get you high three all right. Chance the rapper is producing
a concert for the fiftieth Special Olympics. His new project company, Social Function Productions, has signed on to produce that concert and they're going to include performances by Smokey Robinson and more people as well. So he announced that on social media He's a concert with the Special Olympics. Yeah, he's producing it. He has some production company that produces concerts. Yeah, so then that's going to be I guess their first big thing that they're doing the fiftieth anniversary of the
Special Olympic. Now, post Malone also has his first annual post Defest and that's going to be in Dallas. He just announced that yesterday. They have not said that the lineup will be, but it will happen on October twenty eighth, and tickets will go on sale actually today at ten am local time. So if you're a big fan of post Malone and you want to go celebrate Postyfest, then you can go there. So bad Chris Brown. Another woman has gotten a restraining order against him, a woman named Cassandra.
She got a temporary protective order against him. She says that she attended one of his parties and he started stalking her and her She said he has never threatened her with a gun or any other weapon, but he has been following her and striking her, and that it happens on several times on different days, but she did not specify the dates yet. So they do have hearing for that case, which is going to be July third.
Some women named Cassandra, she says Chris Brown. Oh. Now, Chris Brown's attorney said this is sad because it's obviously the disjointed ranting of someone Chris doesn't know who has mental health issues. This just creates celebrity meet and greets with deranged fans, and perhaps the court may want to engage their mental health department. So that's Chris Brown. Nothing about that story sounds real at all. All right. Well, I'm Angela Yee and that is your rumor report, all right. Thanks.
Oh and don't forget that we do have the iHeartRadio Music Festival going down starring Justin timber Lake, Gray shermerd Logic and more. Tickets do go on sale today, by the way, at ten am, and that's going to be a Pacific time, so one pm Eastern time.

Keep your business, they keep you drop on a clue bond for Florida. It's a man named Douglas Kelly who needs to come to the front of the congreation. We like to have a world with him. But this is a lesson in good customer services. Provide a good customer service. Okay, we'll get
into that when we come back. Keep a lock. This to Breakfast Club. Good morning, you get dun you are. I'm gonna fatten all that around your eye. They want this man two donton blowers. Man. They're waiting for Charlomagne to top invest to make a judgment. Who was going to be on the Donkey of the day. They chose you because the breakfast club bitch you Who's donkey of the day to day? Yes, donkey today for Friday, June fifteenth goes to Douglas Peter Kelly, and he hails from
the great state of Florida. Okay, I have to get Florida. It's on Donkey at a day intro. I mean, seriously, if you're new to the breakfast clubs, and you may not know that, your uncle Charlotte says, all the craziest people come from the Bronson all of Florida. I know they are talking about breaking up the state of California into three pieces, but we really need to consider breaking Florida off from the rest of the United States and making it its own territory. Because the things that happened
in Florida don't happen anywhere else. And this is one of those cases. See Douglas Kelly is a meth head, Ladies and gentlemen. And when you are out here working hard for your money, okay, and you are spending your hard earned money on meth, you need to make sure that you are buying the best meth money can buy. Okay. Think about it. You're taking a penitentiary chance. Every time you purchase meth. You are risking your health, your freedom, your life. So the least you want when you get
some methys some good stuff. Okay, Well, Douglas just wanted to make sure that the meth he bought was popping. So when you buy some meth from Florida and you want to know if it's good or not, what do you do? If you buy some me from Florida and smoke and it's not good, what do you do? Let's go to Fox thirty five Orlando for the report. Police Ronald Er, Now, that was very easy for our deputies
to solve. The Putnam County Sheriff's Office says, this guy came to them, he asked deputies to test his meth. What was he thinking, Well, he said he had a bad reaction to it and he wanted to press charges against the guy who sold it to him. Well, they tested it, had tested positive for meth, and they arrested him. Applied to Florida. Lady, Florida, you never ceased to disappoint. Okay. Look, I understand when you go to a fast food restaurant
and your order is messed up, you complain. Okay, if you went to a restaurant and eat the food and got food pointed, and you would complain, okay, any place you went and spent money and weren't satisfied with what you received, you would complain. So I understand why Douglas felt like he should complain. But I don't think customer complaints apply to drug bias. Okay, I'm not the highest grade of weed in the dispensary, but I don't think any of those customer service rule applied when it comes
to buying methamphetamans. Please give Douglas Peter Kelly of Florida to sweech out of the Hamletones. Oh no you are do gee, Oh the da doggee, Oh the day ye don't want to think the great citizens of Florida for always proving me right. Okay, ground of applause to me for always being right about Florida. All right, right, long before there was a Florida man on Atlanta, I was telling you that the craziest people in the world come from the Bronx and all the Florida, and Florida has
not ceased to prove me right yet. All right, all right, thank you for that donkey today. Yes, now, when we come back, Eddie Winslow will be joining us. Stop calling that grown man Eddie Winslow. Bro, what do you doing Masks, McCary and Superhead's baby. All right, Well, all of the above will be joining us Necks when we come back, so don't move. It's to Breakfast Club come morning. We all the Breakfast Club. We got a special guest in the building. It's so hard not to call him any Winslow.
I ain't even gonna lie. Man, wow, you know his names Darius Morcary. Hey, Hey, Eddie Winds was my homeboy. Man, yeah, man, man, you know the day that I stopped getting it, it's gonna be a problem for me. Yeah. You know, when you've been blessed to come into people's homes for years and uh, you know, we come from an era when we had a captive audience where people had to watch, you know, because there were only a few networks on television, ABC, CBS, NBC, Fox,
You know what I'm saying. So it's a blessing to have been able to groan up with an audience and have them grow up with you. So, you know, Eddie wins was my homeboy, although he's went Hollywood on me recently. Uh you know, they picked the show up on Hulu
and uh, he's not returning my calls. He's dud. Do you feel like you were pigeonholed into the Eddie characters like a whole, like you walking the rooms to auditioning all they see Eddie, No man, No, because I was I was blessed to be able to work during the show, you know. So having played roles like Muhammad Ali Uh, you know, and being in films like Oscar, winning films like Mississippi Burning before Family Matters was even a concept. Uh, you know, I had a solid foundation. I mean at
nineteen eighty six. I mean, what were you guys doing in the nineteen eighty six Yet I was on set shooting a movie with Ivan Rightman. It was directed by Robert Mandel called Big Shots, and it was produced by the original producers of The Real Ghostbusters. You know what I'm saying. So I was able to cut my teeth and home my skills early on. So by the time Family Matters came along, it was just a rocket ship
that I was blessed to be. Uh In sitting in first class, talked like a real I can talk like being around, I can talk like a real two what Gavin acting was? I come from an entertain family. The mccrary's Howard McCrary, Linda Alfred. You know, they used to open for the Jacksons. My family music, long line of musicians, and so I was actually uh watching my father work.
I used to go to work with him, who was doing the music for a play which ran off Broadway for years called Don't Get God Started and Chip Fields God blessed Untie Chip kim Field's mother. She discovered me, and uh, that's what got me into acting. So I do consider myself and fancy myself to be a fest maian. I'm a fan of of theater because theater is what gave me my start indirectly. You know, most great actors come from theater, though, because when you're on that stage,
you can't mess up. Yeah you can't. But everybody can't do theater, you know what I'm saying. So that's why I asked people, you know, I like to see who could take it to the stage, you know what I mean.
I was blessed to do a twenty five city tour called The Maintenance Man, starting with Billy D. Williams and myself arn S J. And then later I did a nineteen city tour with a gentleman by the name of J. D. Lawrence, who I'm gonna be teaming back up to produce a show that I'll be back on a Broadway called Scars and Stripes show that I've written, um and you know it's about turning your scars into stars and wearing them as stripes. I love you know there. I've done a
little theater myself. Urban the ain't nothing wrong with everthing. Urban theater has kept a lot of us working for the lost of the time, you know what I'm saying. I mean, when you don't see us, you know on the screen, you still got bills to pay. An urban theater has been around for a long time. I mean that's how Tyler Pairy and Masks just billions, you know.
So I don't knock it, you know. And in fact, I feel blessed to have been able to experience urban theater because they're gonna tell you when you ain't right, you know what I'm saying. They don't hold back at all. I introduced the young lad. We just have a sitting there. You know this. This is the lovely Gina Ree Womack. Uh yeah, morning, Yeah, you gotta talk to the Mike. Her father is one of my mentors. Bobby Womack, you know, great legendary Bobby Womack. This is a real family matter,
if you would you know. Um, so, yeah, a lot of ups and downs in your business too. There is you know, we've had m Bokimibien was up here and he was talking about how he has to talented well and it was really hard for him. Shut up. It was really hard for him to get work at a period in time. So You've seen a lot going on in Hollywood. I'm a veteran, I'm a survivor. You know, I've been through, uh a lot of ups and downs. But you know it's it's extreme highs, but it's how
you handle the lows, you know. Martin Luther King said, the character of a man is not judged, you know, by by how you handle success. But how he did my man? You know what I'm saying. Yeah, so yeah, you know, So I want to address the elephant in the room. Don't get today. I know, I don't know what you're talking about. I don't know what you're talking about, but I know what you're saying. I call it the elephant, but y'all call it the what you don't get it?
That did you get give you don't get it in I heard about it. But remember why I trust me. I'm paid to remember things. Okay, Well, in case you forgot, just because you stated the tims that you were sexually abused by Hollywood, I didn't say no. But I never said that I was sexually abused. See that's the problem with me edia today and with the way things are spun. I never said that. I said that we've all been touched at some point another inappropriately. That's true at some point.
I know what I'm saying. I don't think I touched you. You might not know it, though you might not know it. Darius, he had a rumor about nine and a half inch deal dos Envy did so he definitely was that was my grown life. I don't live my life based on what nobody said about nobody, what nobody said about me. I got a whole lot of jobs, Okay, one of them is not to give a damn what nobody thinks about me. You know what I'm saying, and people don't
know what the hell? Uh. A lot of celebrities have had to go through and endure to get where they are today, to open up doors for other people to come behind them. You don't know how many Nat King Cole, one of the greatest musicians singers um that we know. He wasn't even allowed to walk through the front door of things that he was planning, and he had to come to the back door. And these are things that a lot of us forget about. So, I mean, we
all have been touched inappropriately. For somebody is rubbing your shoulders, and you might not be thinking about it because you're an entertainer and you're focused on what you have to do getting on stage saying these lines, the pressure your agents, your lawyer, your manager, your mom or your wife feel whatever, you're not thinking about it. You might walk away and say, this motherfucker was rubbing my shoulders. What just happened? What happened?
But you know, the way that Timz approached you with the question, it made it seem like it was sexual abuse, and that's what they do, you know, And I'm not mad at tim Z. You know what I'm saying. I mean that Harvey Levin has made millions of dollars off of other people's anguishing pain, you know what I mean. So we have to understand that that is a part of the entertainment industry and much respect to it. It
is what it is. The truth of the matter is is there was a story that was brewing that I know where the bodies are buried, and I wasn't gonna speak completely on it, and I was tired of them land blasting some of my people, and so I spoke on it the best way I could. My point was, and I was not victims shaming in any way you called the victims. No. No. What I said is you have to know how to deal with the downs as
well as the ups. People can ride the wave of success all day long, but but knowing how to ride that wave when it's coming in low determines if you're gonna be able to stay on your feet or not. So what I was saying is that there are a lot of people who when the work is not happening, or when they're angry or upset, they may have time when they're coming off of that high when they're not on stage. Are you doing it because you're thirsty or
because you really want justice? I wasn't speaking on Terry Crews and anybody else. I was speaking on a specific issue that somebody had brought up, something that took place almost thirty years later, and my point was as African Americans, we have to be ten times better. We have to be on time. If a leaders on time, he's late. That's what I believe that Malcolm Xim micolm max that if you're if you're on time, you're late. If you're earlier on time, exactly all right. We got more with
Darius McCreary when we come back, don't move. It's the breakfast club. Ej envy angela yee, Charlomine. We are the breakfast club. We have Eddie Winslow aka Darius McCrary in the building. Yee. So do you feel the media paints a bad picture of you? Um? I mean I feel the media is gonna do what they do. But you know, I've survived a whole lot more than than than you know. What's that Ty didn't scratch my teflone. You know what I'm saying. So, if you could choose your words again,
would you still call them thirsty to me? If you wait thirty years later to bring something up, um, I would consider it uh looking for a way to make yourself reliant. Yes, I definitely disagree with that because we can't tell people when they want to express themselves. It might take somebody that much time. It could take therapy. We see that people have all kinds of unsolved issues
from thirty years ago that they might never addressed. It could be that maybe they felt like they couldn't get work in their line of business if they came for it because that person was too powerful. Age. You see what's happening with Harvey Weinstein right now with allegations from decades ago, Bill Cosby. So if it happened, it happened. It doesn't really matter when it happened. If somebody did something wrong, you should still be able to speak on it.
I feel that there are different ways to handle things. If someone has an issue and they are uncomfortable, they could find a representative because we have agents, we have lawyers. There are several different ways to handle it now. But thirty years ago, they didn't think about what you said. You said when you were black on those lots, you knew you couldn't get away with certain things, can't get away. I still can't get imagine being a black woman in
that situation, even just a woman period. And they're like, man, if I say somebody gonna lose my job. Not many powerful women that we see coming forward today that you look at them and you're like, I can't believe that she went. And they are powerful men too. But my point is this, for every Viola Davis, think of how many how many others there are who weren't able to say anything. Think of how many others, how many other men, terry crews, Think of how many men, how many others
that there are for every one that you see. So my point is you may you might might have been able to say something about it thirty years later, but if you didn't, think of how many you didn't help by not speaking up. Maybe they tried to process and when they decide they can come for it, some people might never come. That's the issue that But that's what I'm saying right now. I feel like we're giving people more of a space and a voice because we didn't
have this voice before. Now there's all kinds of organizations that are supporting. Absolutely, there's people that felt like their job would have been over if they came. Trust me, the people that have been threatened you haven't revealed than anything. People you know, so you're holding on some stuff too. I am and there's some things that I take to my grave. That's the school I'm from, you know. I mean,
I kind of like the same thing you're telling. These girls didn't stand up and if you know some situations you should be standing up as well. Well, Well, what I do is I feel like that there are different ways to stand up. So just because I'm not gonna get on the media and blast anybody doesn't mean that I'm not gonna do anything about it. I just feel like you have a misunderstanding with a man like I have.
I have respect for the way that you handled Morris and uh desuse the funny guy, sute my god the morning. So I love I love you guys. Thank you. Respect to the way that you handled that. They're gonna use this on this show, by I love them. I'm gonna visit them next. We'll talk about victims shaming man next. And yeah, but I mean the way that you handled it,
you know, respect to that. However, there is a way that you could have handled it as well, if you would have chose to deal with it before they got here and stepped outside and talk to him. No. No, what I'm what I'm saying is no where I come from. There's one or two ways that you deal with it. Being a man. You know, we're either gonna talk about it, we're gonna get into some gangster. And if you wasn't
a man, no, no, why you instagate you see? But this is this is the whole thing, right And I look at any man that touches a woman is a cow, especially touching a woman with without consent as a cow Absolutely, and they need to be dealt with. Whether it's right now, where there's thirty years from now when it was twenty years Absolutely, And I'm not mad at that. And in my whole situation is if you do something in the light, I'm gonna check you in the light. I've been checking
behind the scenes. I'm gone, I'm gonna check you. Come on, and then then you can say, okay, I apologize, it's over, and then when you leave, you can do whatever you want to do. That's a coward. Same thing, same to the same thing with a man that touches a kid or that's a cow. Cannot I agree that it's right now a thirty years I agree Bill, cos we touched them them young lady, to them ladies, he's a coward. I don't want nothing to do because it doesn't matter
what he did him personally, it is a coward. I got three kids too, so I understand that. But my point was and when I said this, and I hate to imagine if your daughter got tough, right, man. But I'm a different type of cat though, man, a different type of No, I'm not a killer, but don't push me, don't judge my kids. And like I said, I'm paid, I'm paid to remember things right right. So with this whole thing hashtag me too, I respect it. I'm all
for us bringing things to the light, you know. Um. One of the things that I that I've been blessed to learn is how to live in my truth. Um. But once again, there is tact and part of the problem that I feel that a lot of African Americans that we suffer from it. We've been through so much, We've been beat up so much that a lot of our passion is mistaken for for rage or emotion. That fact, I'm not yelling at you. I'm just passionate about what I feel. And so a lot of us don't make
an incorporative America. A lot of us don't make it, you know. In in in structured situations because this this game is not our game. It's not built for us. So once you understand the game that you're playing and you know what the rules are, then you can govern yourself accordingly. Well, let's change the subject. What do you think about marriage? Because how did y'all get to you know? It is what it is? And if you ask her who the real superhead is, she'll tell you it's me. Hey,
I'm a backcracker, So good to him. Man, come on and show him saying. You know what I'm saying. You gotta you know if you try, if you're trying to get in, you gotta know how to better be a deep sea diver looking for the pearl every night. Hey, I'm just saying, if I'm been, I'm all the way. That's why I'm such a great actor, because I know how to commit. How did you give me through it? How did you? How do you start dating? At a barbershop? She was at a barber shop. Well know the first
time we actually met. Uh yeah, we were at a harbors shop and we became friends. And she was getting her son's haircut, and uh I connected with with with with her son. You know, were you aware of her reputation clearly. I mean to me, like I said, Man, I'm gonna live and let love person, you know, which is why victim shaming and all that stuff. Me. That's that's the craziest and furthest thing from who I am.
I'm a very non judgmental person. And one of the greatest things that I learned from Karna is to live in your truth. Um, I mean a lot of it later on we found out was fabricated. You know, she admitted to it, you know what I mean. You know, you want to sell a book, you know, publisher's gonna tell you what to do. You're gonna do that, just like a lot of these artists to sing in the records that they that they don't write. No, I don't think.
I don't think that's what it was. I had to hurt because she's saying embellish beating her son that one time, and I mean that was your wife. Well I never beat her son. And honesty, you know, Karna was very abusive to her son. To me. You know that that's that's both. I mean that that's why the marriage didn't last, you know, unfortunately, you know, I mean, there are a lot of abuse men um and even when I made that statement to TMZ, you know, I was speaking from
the perspective of men in this industry. It's unfortunate that people don't pay attention to what fathers go through. It's just like, oh, that's just dad. He's supposed to give up and sacrifice his life so that we can have everything that we want. That's what we're taught to do as men, and men don't cry right, we're supposed to exactly. So you know, I was speaking from the perspective of a man. I'm glad you cleared that up. Thank you,
I appreciate it. Thank you for joining us, Thank you for having me and the Susan Morrows, Jesus and Mary for you now get that my whole boy. I love the show. It's hilarious. Does Merrow the Harold and de sus bring that smoke. Darius McCray, it's McCary. You know you've made it when they spell your name wrong. Thanks McCleary, It's Gina who Mac. Thank y'all, It's the Breakfast Thank you, The Breakfast Club Morning. Everybody is DJ Envy angela Ye,
Charlomagne the guy. We are the Breakfast Club. Let's get to the rumas. Let's talk Kim Kardashian's killing the team. This is the rumor offort with Angela Ye on the Breakfast Club. Yes, Kim Kardashian and Alice Marie Johnson were on the Today Show and they were talking about how Alice ended up getting released from prison last week while
serving a life sentence. Now, first, Kim Kardashian talks about who the first person she called was in order to get things in motion, I called Ivanka and we had a really great conversation about women and wanting to help each other. And I knew that she would have understood Alice, and she immediately was so receptive and so great. Okay, what's the problem, all right? Then she talked about meeting with Trump and how she broke the ice with him,
and then got down to business. I first said that I am here because I really want to know why you kicked Chloe off the Apprentice, And that was the first thing that I said, and he laughed and it broke the ice. And then we got focused and when we spoke about Alice, and I explained to him where I found her, why I believe in her, how people deserve second chances. And immediately, I mean, the President had compassion for her right away. He felt that it was
the right thing to do. I guess you know, meeting with Trump is okay if you actually get something done. Yeah there's a result from it. Yes, you got something done. But we justify the means is the question, they say, And if in this case the ends did justify that. But you got to meet with him to at least attempt to get something done. Somebody got to sit at the table. It can't just be you going to meet with him, chatted up and take a picture, all right.
And then here's Alice Mari Johnson. She said, you could never think Kim Kardashian enough thank you. It's not big enough. I think I have to walk it out. I have to walk my thank you out. I have to live it out for her, for my family, for the supporters. Your picture moves around My favorite picture in my bible right now. My proyer focus for you was in some one oh five. Touch not my annoyted and do my profit no harm. Kim has been annoying to do this,
and no one better not touch her either with their mouth. Also, Alice said she didn't even know who Kim Kardashian was before she ended up getting helped. Oh yeah, she was in jail year. She don't probably know who a lot of people are. She was for twenty plus years. All right. Now, Bill Cosby, since we're talking about legal things, has fired his entire legal team, and that is before his sentencing. He's supposed to be sentenced on September twenty fifth, So
he has a brand new attorney now. And you know, he's facing sentencing on three counts of aggravated and decent assault for drugging and molesting Andrea Constant back in January of two thousand and four, he was convicted. He's facing up to ten years behind bars on each count. I had to do my whole legal team away too. Always I got convicted. Okay, word, everybody gotta go by, all right. And in celebration of Donald Trump's birthday, Chrissy Teagan did
something pretty cool. She donated two hundred and eighty eight thousand dollars to ACLU, that's the American Civil Liberties Union, and they said they want to hold the Trump administration accountable whenever possible, particularly on the hot button issue of migrant children. And the administration's zero tolerance policy. So there you have it. That's a great way to celebrate Donald Trump's birthday. Donate some money to the American Civil Liberties Union.
Celebrating Donald Trump's birthday, You're not. It's just kind of an f you to him. Just like I said when it was Mike Pent's birthday, we should donate to Playing Parenthood. Oh so, yeah, celebrated in the right word. Yeah, well, she posted, John and I are outraged to see and hear the horror stories of immigrant families seeking asylum and refuge in America being ripped apart due to the inhumane policies of the Trump administration. They said. The President celebrates
his seventy second birthday today on this auspicious occasion. In order to make Trump's birthday great again, each member of our family has ned seventy two thousand dollars to the ACLU. Okay, so that's why she did it, Okay, salute to her. I'm like, I'm not in just spending money on people I don't like. I told you that yesterday. But it's something that he doesn't like. It's a good course regardless, if you're gonna donate money what a great time. And in the honor of that, I don't even attach it
to him though, is what I'm saying. I like it actually brought a lot more attention to their donation too. All Right. I'm Angela Yee and that is your rumor report. All right, thank you, miss Yee. Now I shout out to revote. We'll see you guys on Monday. Everybody else, it's all about NAS. Let me know your favorite NAS joint. We're gonna do a NAS mix this morning. His album is out today. It's produced entirely by Kanye. What it is. So you've been boycotting Kanye, stick to your boycott, all right,
I keep that same energy. Eight hundred five eight five one on five one. It is to Breakfast Club. Good morning,
