Speaker 1

And I think that y'all have a certain amount of respect for you know what everybody else does. And y'all are just the best of what y'all do. This platform to reach y'all hat that you earned make space for somebody like me. You guys have a direct line to the coaches. Oh my god, I'm empty. All I do is reading about the breakfast Club every morning. Good you guys are trending every you know, I dragged my ass out of gown. I'm like, uh, what happened to the

breakfast Club? To that? All right? Good morning USA? Yeah, yeah, yah yah yah yah ya ya ya ya yah ya had a drap ya you couldn't find a drop? What up you easy? What up? Dj envy? It's Monday. Back to the work with good morning. Yes, I flapping gone forever? Yeah you will going this whole weekend running. I've been out of town since Tuesday. So where you being? Well?

Tuesday I was at the National Association of Broadcast said, you know, they had their Heroes events where they were given out of words to all the media outlets that do great community service things. So I was giving out an award there, and then I went to Atlanta where I was filling with filming with Jennifer Williams. She had her whole situation with the scammer. So we do have a documentary coming that's all about this guy who scammed her out of her range rover, as well as scamming

multiple other people, his own family members. And then I was in Orlando for an event that I had with my girl Koya from one or four or five in Orlando, so it was for all women. It was called a Risky and it was about HIV awareness. So again, and I want to shout out to my guy. Okay, chef Gerald Sombright from Knife and Spoon in Orlando, he got

a Michelin Star, which was a huge deal at the restaurant. Yes, I think he's the only black chef with a mail chef with the Michelin star, so that's a huge deal. It was like a party. He was like, I never do this, but I'm ready to pop a bottle and I happened to be in Orlando, so we popped a bottle. That's what it is. Congratulations to him. Now, I know if you've been traveling, I don't know what's been going on,

but planes have been canceling flights have been delayed. I was stuck in Detroit this weekend for like seven eight hours trying. Yeah, I don't know what's going on with the weather or I don't know if it's the weather or the airports or the airlines. I don't know. But it's been crazy there. It's been a crazy week and we got a lot to talk about this weekend. Of course, our Governor's Baard was over the weekend, which is a huge festival. Roddy Rich didn't make it and then he

was released and we'll talk about that. Also, there was a lot of boxing over the weekend. Ben Zeno Ford Black China, Ford Edgabalanga for it, and then the finals on Friday, Summer Jam was over to It was a lot. It was a lot going on over the weekend. We're gonna break it down, all right. All right, let's get the show cracking front here and the Puerto Rican Day Parade.

How can I get that? There was so much going on all weekend long, so crazy weekend and the finals, I said, the finals that was Friday and it happens again to night. All right, Well, let's get into some front page news. What we're talking about. Well, let's talk about this bipartisan deal. A bipartisan group of senators have an agreement on principle for gun safety legislation. It's not everything at all, nowhere near what we all would I think one I think with the people really kind of need.

But we'll tell you what's in it and what's not. All right, we'll get into that when we come back. Keep a lot. This to breakfast club. Good morning. I just told pay this Williams again or this night man. Man, they don't want to see a little baby with the bobbing. Let's get in some front page news now. Tonight Warriors Boston tied to too. They play at nine pm Eastern time. There's been great games, man, it's been a great series so far. So I'm excited about it. And what else

you got? Easy? All right, Well, this is a huge deal because this is something that has not happened in thirty years. It's been just at a stonewall. But a bipartisan group is sent and build an agreement for gun safety legislation. Just yesterday this was breaking new. So there's an overview of a forthcoming package of reforms. Now I'll tell you what is included in the agreement, and then I'll tell you what's not there's red flag laws. So that's one of the most significant pieces of what they

have in here. That's aimed at keeping guns out of the hands of those people who pose a threat to themselves or others. So that does require significant funding to have these red flag laws, but nineteen states already have them, so they would also be eligible for funding to improve the effectiveness of those programs. Mental health and telehealth investment, so that's to increase access to mental health and suicide preventing programs and other support services available in the community.

And closing the so called boyfriend loophole. That will address the so called loophole which deals with whether unmarried partners could keep guns if they were found guilty of violence against a dating partner. So earlier this year, Senate negotiators involved in the Violence Against Women Act drop that provision because of objections from the and that was a huge blow to Democrats. But now they're saying at least ten Republicans are willing to go against the NRA on an

issue where they have a long held position. So currently only a person who's been married to live with, or had a child with a partner they've been convicted of abusing are black from having a gun. But that means if you were in a serious dating relationship and convicted of domestic violence, you would now no longer be eligible to own a gun. All right. Enhance review process for buyers under twenty one, So that means there's a review process for people between eighteen and twenty one who go

to buy a gun like an AAR fifteen. Under a background check review, they'll have to contact state and local law enforcement to search for any disqualifying mental health or

juvenile records. Clarifying the definition of a federally licensed firearm dealer, So they said that's still being debated as far as the provisions and the language and that, but it would require more firearm sellers who are proven to be engaged in the business of selling firearms to be put on notice they need to register to become federally licensed firearm dealers, because that means those dealers would have to conduct background

checks under federal law. Also, school security resources, and this legislation would discuss obviously school security providing money to help institute safety measures in and around primary and secondary schools. Now, what they did leave out is expanded background checks for all firearms sales or transfers in the country. So right now background checks are not required for gun sales and tranches by unlicensed and private sellers, so that's not in here.

A sought weapons ban, so there's no federal ban on military style as sought weapons. And that's another measure. Democrats have been pushing higher minimum age of purchase, so they have not included a change to the age at which a person needs to be so they wanted to raise it from eighteen to twenty one. That's not in here either. Now here is Senator Koon's talking about this gun legislation. There's been attempt after attempt to pass a broader, stronger

provision such as you just described. The House just send over to us a broad and stronger bill that I and I think every Democrat in our group would have supported, although I don't speak for all of them, something that would have gotten the support of the majority of Democrats.

It was critically helpful to have Senator Cornin, a member of the Judiciary Committee, a tough on crime conservative Republican, making it clear what was possible and what might Yet, more than ten Republicans Senate votes because frankly, to come up short in this moment to deliver it literally nothing again was just too hard to prospect to contemplate. So right now the proposal has ten Democrats and ten Republicans backing it. That's crucial because you need the sixty votes

to pass the Senate. All right, well, I mean it sounds great, it sounds wonderful. Hopefully we can pass it so they can actually put this into play. But I feel like, you know, we've been on this radio, what twelve years something like that, eleven years, and I feel like we've been talking about this for the last eleven years. So they've been trying to get something done for thirty years and it hasn't happened. So this is the first time that they've had ten Republicans on board that are

actually will to vote for this bill. So that's a huge deal, yeah, because it's I feel like every other day we talk about a different mass shooting. So hopefully we get this pass and hopefully it cuts down somebody. And it tells you how public pressure can really make things happen, because the people really want and need some type of legislation that is gone absolutely gonna help. So there you have it all right? Well, lad is your front page news. Now get it off your chest. Eight

hundred five eight five one on five one. Let us know how your weekend was. What you did, what you didn't do, what you wanted to do, what you couldn't do, whatever it may be, you had a great weekend.

But what they did was instead of having four stages, they had three to make more room for all the

kids to walk around. Another thing that scared me, guys, was I thought they were going to be a riot because first of me goes canceled, then little Wayne cancer and thank god for Asta's first that came and saved the day. Oh I didn't know Wayne cancer. Wayne cancer he had they said he had plane trumpet wow. And

then we hear about Roddy Rich That was insane.

This is your time to get it off your chests, whether you're man or blessed. So she better have the same. We want to hear from you on the breakfast club. Hello, who's this Hi? This is a high breakfast club. Hey, what up Ki Ki, good morning, get off your chests. First song. I'm happy I got through again. I call you guys last week

to get my son to shout out. He grabs away to high school last week, and I forgot to get my daughter shout out. Yesterday. What's her birthday? She just turns. Well, hey, what a happy birthday. I told you, mommy was go get through you. What you do for a birthday? What you doing for a birthday? Well, yesterday my Lisa's grabs awaited, so we went to um they're graduation party.

It's not her birthday, but to Maya, I'm just wanted to give you a shout out too, So you want to feel a little type of way. Now, yeah, you can't be forgetting kids, but the shout outs, I know, I know. I was just so excited about my son

last week. My oldest daughter is sixteen. Her birthdays not said September, so I'll be calling back in September to give her birthday. Okay, so all the kids gotta shout out, the kids gotta shout out. Now, Okay, we don't want to hear this. You have going have a good week, all right? Hello? Who's this? Yo? This tone calling from Buffalo with my girl T shirt shirt? What's up? Get it off? So go ahead. So everybody keeps talking about what went down in Buffalo, and they want to pass

all of these bills. But what I don't hear anybody talking about is the entire black hate crime. And it's crazy to me because when the eighteen people were being associate, they passed that bill within weeks, and we have literally been being hunted and killed for decades and nobody does anything about it. And laws that they trying to put in place really don't address the fact that we are literally being targeted for something we have no control over.

Talk about it White supremacy, absolutely, I mean we've been talking about it for a long time. Anybody any other groups gets affected, they passed these bills and these laws immediately. With us, it just seems like it's it just can never get passed, right. Yeah, It's like because because they put in y'all. You talked about the year by the way, we listen to y'all every morning. We love y'all. We excided to tell about being able to speak to y'all.

But you were saying they're putting the changes in the bills for domestic violence. Um, the guy that killed these ten people up here in Buffalo, he wasn't committing no domestic violence prime, he wasn't convicted of that. That what's that going to do for white supremacy? Right? And you know, you saw what happened with these wife supremacists in Idaho over the weekend. They arrested a whole bunch of them.

They're just using what happened here is a way to piggyback on all of these bills that they want to put in place. Those poor babies down in Texas just another way to piggyback these gun laws that they want to put in place. But you're trying to addressing the real issues that are like I'm talking about illegal guns and ghost guns. These people have legally brought firearms they wish like you're trying to put laws in place to

prevent people from doing things that aren't ready to do it. Illegally. Like, if I'm gonna go out and get a gun and I'm gonna get it illegally, all laws are not going to stop people going to get my guns illegally. You're not doing anything for these people who legally have these firearms. A children without hunting at five and six and know

how to sniper. You're saying, don't teach racism in schools because it makes the non African American children feel bad and feel guilty about something they have no control over. So you're breeding a generation of people that don't realize the hurt and anger that has been put in plate for generation after generation, and black kids are still going with backlash of being afraid, great great great great grandchild. Right, well, teach you should run for office, because I vote for

you in a minute. You sound passion, that you sound strong, and I would vote for you in a minute. Yeah, it's crazy. People are running and they say, oh, you know, we're gonna make this happen, We're gonna pass the George for Justin's police, and that we're gonna do all of these things and then nothing happens. Right, we'll get it off your chest. Eight five eight five one O five one. If you need to vent, you can hit it up. Now. We got rooms all the way. Well, let's start off

Monday with some good news. Right, let's do some congratulations in order. We'll tell you about Jennifer Hudson. We'll talk about Tiger Woods on Marion, and maybe one of your favorite shows on Netflix that just got greenlit four season two. All right, we'll get into that next. Don't move. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning, the Breakfast Club. This is the Rumor Report with Angela years Well, this is beautiful to see. Floyd Mayweather Junior was inducted into the International

Boxing Hall of Fame yesterday. I feel like this should have been done. But here he is as he's accepting the honor. Yes, sir boy. Let somebody taping from the crowd and he's cheering Floyd on and Floyd starts to tear up. But I mean, it's well deserved. I don't know how the Boxing Hall of Fame works. I like in basketball you have to wait a certain number of years before you can be inducted. But it's well deserved

to me. He's the he's the greatest boxes, one of the greatest boxes alive that I've ever seen fight technically and the way that he's able to dodge and counter. He really really when I say he yeah, he mastered the essence of boxing. So now, because of the pandemic, it was the previous two induction ceremonies were postponed, so

it was a very crowded affair at this one. But Roy Jones, Junior, Migo Koto, James Tony also female champions Regina Homaton Holly Holm were part of this year's class, and then the class of twenty twenty m had Hopkins, Sugar, Shaant Moseley. The class of twenty twenty one had Mayweather, Vladimir Kritzko, andre Ward. So yes, if Floyd's a good person, I know Floyd a long time when he first started off when he was pretty boy Floyd, and he's a

good person, good individual, real helpful. He doesn't drink, he doesn't smoke, he takes his body seriously. So it is well deserved, all right. And Tiger Woods is officially a billionaire, so congratulations to him. He's one of the top running athletes in the world. He made over one point seven billion dollars in salary over the course of his twenty seven year career, more than anybody else Forbes has ever tracked.

in legacies. I believe in major championships. I believe in big events comparisons to historical figures of the past. There's plenty of money out here at the tour is going, but it's just like any other sport. It's like tennis. You have to go out there and earn it. So right now there are three known athlete billionaires, Tiger Woods, Michael Jordan, and Lebron James. So congratulations to him. And

Congratulations even just as far as the culture of like people, when he did his deal with Nike, that got a lot of people buying

his clothes and watching golf. People who never used to watch golf before he'll get up out community to golf. I mean, you see so many of us golfing now, and a lot of people say they will influenced by Tiger Woods absolutely. All right. Almaran has a new book coming out on September thirteenth, and it's called Unbothered, The Power of Choosing Joy, and it explores three sections spirituality, mental health, and physical wellness.

All right, we'll get into that next. It's the Bakfast Club. Go Morning, So Breakfast Club, your mornings will never be the same. Hey up, y'alla's dj MV. Have you taken a closer look at the General Insurance yet?

An insurance agency National, Tennessee. Some restrictions apply. Morning. Everybody is dj Envy, Angela Yee, Charlemagne the guy. We are the Breakfast Club.

Let's getting some front page news now. Tonight, Game five of the Finals Warriors Boston of course, the series is tied two two happens tonight nine pm and they are playing in the Bay, so should be a great game. What else you got easy? All right, Well, let's talk about these thirty one people with ties to a white nationalist group were arrested for conspiracy to riot. This was

near a Pride parade that was happening in Ohio. Now please received an alarm nine one to one call, and they believe these thirty one men are affiliated with the white nationalist group Patriot Front allegedly had plans to riot that Pride event Saturday. The lads group they were seen piling into a U haul at a hotel. They had riot gear and they were later pulled over and arrested. And so that's great for the person that called nine one one, for law enforcement agencies who were present who

responded throughout the day. The North Idaho Pride Alliance, which organized the event, released a statement. They said, as a small community nonprofit, North Idaho Pride Alliance is taking a much needed day of rest after successfully organizing a momentous, joyful and safe Pride in the Park community celebration under the most challenging of circumstances. And so here is what Chief Lead Police Chief Lee had to say about the

white nationalists arrest. It is clear to us, based on the gear that the individuals had all with them, they had in the possession in the U haul, with the long paperwork that received from them, that they came to riot downtown. I love the fact that they caught them, gentlemen. I mean, somebody called now on one, of course, but you see thirty white men with khakis and uniform style hats,

face covered up, hopping in the back of a U haul. Yes, call nine on one, absolutely positively, I'm calling on one one immediately even I'm feeling like they pledge in or something, or they're about the f issue up. So yeah, I'm calling on one. Yeah. They said they were all just like a little army. They had on khaki pants, blue

shirts they had had to plastic inside them. They also were equipped with chilled shin guards or the riot gear, along with papers that they described as similar to an operations plan that a police or military group of put together for an event. They found at least one smoke grenade as well, and members of the Patriot Front believe that their white ancestors conquered America and bequeathed it to them according to the Anti Defamation But khaki pants and

blue polos, don't that just sound weird? Like they were good blockbuster Yeah, right, like khaki pants and black all right, whatever, whatever works, But I'm glad we got them op the streets, all right. An, let's talk about this bipartisan gun deal. Bipartisan group of senators haven't builed an agreement for a gun safety legislation, so this is a forthcoming package of reforms to address one of the hugest things that are

happening here in the United States. Now, they do have to sort out some of the framework of how the legislation will be written, but the big deal is that this does have the support of ten Republican senators, which would give the proposal enough support to overcome the Senate filibuster.

This is legislation they've been trying to pass for over thirty years, and it definitely does not have everything that they would want in these bills, but it is i would say, a start, right and it also shows how public pressure, in spite of the Republican getting so much support from the NRA, public pressure can get things done.

So some of the things include red flag laws which would keep guns out of the hands of people who pose a threat to themselves or others, Mental health and telehealth investment, closing the boyfriend loophole, which means that it used to be that a person who's if you're married, or you live with somebody or had a child with a partner, if you get convicted of abusing your block

from having a go. But now if you're in a serious relationship and convicted of domestic violence, you would no longer be eligible to own a gun and hand to review process for buyers under twenty one. Also the test to do with a licensed firearm dealers, clarifying the definition of what a federally licensed firearm dealer is, school security resources.

Now some things that are not in the bill expanded background checks, so that would doesn't include a provision that would expand background checks for all firearm sales or transfers in the country. They're not required right now for gun sales and transfers by unlicensed and private sellers. There's no assault weapons van, there's no higher minimum age or purchase that it was not going to go from eighteen to

twenty one. So those are some of the things that are not included in this new legislation that should pass, right, I hope it does pass, And I mean, we have to do something, we have to change something. I remember going to Hampton University and I think I was a junior or senior and I turned twenty one, and the first thing I did was I bought me a non millim I bought me a glock. Now, was I mentally prepared to have a gun and really know the consequences of having a gun and owning a gun? No, you're

still not. No, I am now, But back then, No, there's no way in hell. I was a twenty one year old king. You're kind of a hot head though. Still I'm not a hot head anymore. But back then I was definitely a hot head. I was definitely a hot head. And should I have owned a gun back then? No, I, like you said, I was a hot head. If there was a situation anything going on, I could have used that gun and I could be in jail right now.

Just because I'm twenty one of age doesn't mean I'm I should be able to own a firearm and know what that firearm does. And when I bought the firearm, there was no instructions. There was nothing telling me, oh, you can use the gun on this or self defense to this, that and the other. No, you twenty one, You go in there, you show your license. Here, sir, here's your gun, here's some ammunition. Have a nice day. I don't think that's responsible. Well here's what tech Humor

had to say about this gun legislation. I am a particularly particularly please for the first time in thirty years, scenes ready to reject the vice like gripp that the n r A has had on the Congress and move forward to meeting full got legislation. All right, well that is your front page news. All right, thank you, miss Yan. Then as you gotta think you have all these different places spew when he hate, and now you give a kid that that's receiving all us hit a gun at

twenty one. Some kid that's watching Alex Jones on YouTube. Yes, oh my god, I was watching that special on CNN. I mean, I don't know what is wrong with people. Goodness, that's all I have to say about that. All right, Well, lad is front page news. Now let's open up the phone lines eight five eight five, one oh five one. Let's talk about the court using lyrics and songs against evidence against people when they go to court. Let's talk

about that. Over the weekend, Meek Mill was performing at a concert and he, you know, talked about supporting Gonna in thug. If you know me, if you've been following me in music, I come from the same is that you come from. I right about to say slim and kind of a rap about So basically, if we turn the people for that crime, so I'm basically guilty of everything they talked about because I talk about the same things.

I want to say, support young thugs, support ourselves, support Gunner right them, guys, make sure you hit him fish, use your government, sweathers, they control your tail, and fight for people like us. People like us that fight for you guys. Black art, protect black art, because now they're using our lyrics against us and taking it into a court room. And this is the way that we found

the way to feed our family and make millions. All right, Well, let's talk about an eight hundred five eight five one oh five one. Should the court be able to use the rappers lyrics and songs as evidence against them? I'm torn about this. Yeah, it's an ongoing conversation, very torn. You know, they have this rap music on Trial bill they're trying to pass in New York, and they have like Jay Z, Nick Mail Big S, Robin Think Killing,

Mike Big. All these people are among artists who have signed on an effort to change that law that would prevent rap lyrics from being used as evidence in criminal trials, and the senators that are behind that because it's supposed to be art. But then you might have some cases and I know you're about to talk about it when we come back, where you're like, I mean, yes, a Houston rapper rap about exactly what you just did. A Houston rapper over the weekend, he rapped about his songs

about robbing ATMs. He got arrested over the weekend for what robbing at ATM. Then he's done it allegedly numerous times. Probably shouldn't rap about it. Probably not so when you get locked up, I'm not supposed to use that. I don't know, some kind of torn let's talk about it. We'll take your cause when we come back. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning, the Breakfast Club. It's topic time of the phone called eight hundred five eight five one oh five one to join it. To the discussion with

the Breakfast Club. Talk about it morning. Everybody's DJ envy Angela ye Charlomagne, the guy, Angela, I said, Angela Ye, you say E said Angela, Yee, Charlomagne, the guy. We are the Breakfast Club. Now, if you just joined us, we're taking your calls eight hundred five eight five, one oh five one. We're asking should the court be able to use a rapper's lyrics or song as evidence against him? I was saying earlier, earlier, I'm torn with this right now.

I looked at Young Thugs case, and I've seen the prosecuting. The prosecutor, you know, quoted a young Thug lyric when he was like, yeah and after judge. Now it had nothing to do with the case. But the reason he said after judges because he wanted to judge decide with the prosecutor. And obviously they did so in that case. I don't think that's right. But in Houston, there was a rapper that rapped the route that rapped about Robin atm Dciana Riley. Yeah, let's let's hear it out of state.

To Jake's running with the Florida players. I didn't hit the road and got that money in by forida. You're enough specializing, burglarizing better guard to say the claus were doing a dance, but we're trying to afford to taste. Slow down the drive right, put that bitch and crude control. Let me know if you get time, because we can't let to lose control running every day the next week, we're saying getting this money and were just praying that we might get Now he was arrested over the weekend

for what ye uh. He and a couple of his friends actually robbed an ATM technician. Now allegedly this is They've done this numerous times, so this is what they do. And then he rapped about in the song how could you not use that in court? You know what I mean? Like like I don't, I don't know. I'm torn because if yeah, his name is two and three jug God

and he had a song called make It Home. That song right, because if you're gonna talk about your crimes in a song and then do the crime, how could you look like maybe if it's vague, then no, but if it's something that's like very specific, like I don't know, it's hard to say because it has to be across the board, right, you can't say it's not cool but young thug, but it was cool in this situation, you got to figure out when it comes to laws, they're

kind of across the board. So either you agree with it or you don't. Yeah, But then you know, like there's so many rappers like you. You've heard jay Z talk about, you know, rapping about violence in the songs. You' her fifty do it, you her Nas do it, you her Ti do it, your Snoop do it? You know what I mean? Does that mean we should lock them

up for things against them? Now? If they said, hey, I'm gonna shoot you in the face, or maybe I did shoot you in the face and take your eye out, and you really did that and then you wrapped about it after you did it for real, and it like totally lines up with what happened. You know, that might be a whole nother situation. Then if you're vaguely saying, you know, hey, somebody does something to me, you know, I'll shoot them, I don't think you should be able

to use that. Well, let's let's go to the phone line. Hello, who's this, Hey, vana Tee? What are you calling from? I'm calling from Savannah, Savannah, Georgia. Okay, what's your thoughts, mama. So I feel like if an artist is going to like I definitely feel like, of course, to protect the black heart, but if you are going to take the time to rap about the crimes that you're potentially committing in your music, then that has every right to be

used as evidence against you. Now in the event that you're not doing these things, you're not out here moving drugs and you know, toting guns and all these things, then that is a reflection of falsifying in your music, which I feel like your fans want to hear what's actually true to them. So either you're lying or you're indicting yourself. But I think goals like you can't have it both ways, right. Either way, you're either a liar

or you're telling on yourself, and that's not the smartest thing. Yeah, But I feel like in hip hop, especially especially street rap, you know, people are talking about shooting people, and it's that and the other. If you come up, my crip, I shoot you like, you talk about it, you rap

about it, you hear about it. But then if a case actually happens against somebody, how do you go back and use that lyric because he didn't say I shot Tommy, he didn't say I shot Peter, he didn't say I shot Little Little Show and he didn't say none of that, you know. So it's it's it's kind of it's kind of weird. It's like a key and pill skate come to life. Yeah, pretty much? Hello, who's this? You know? You know what? Sharp man? Ski? What up? What are

you calling from Charleston, South Caroline? Okay, now we're asking should the court be able to use a rappers lyric called song is evidence against him? Was definitely not only a big one. Try to Prinson that write it or the autist that's lying on their lyrics too. So you're saying something some rappers don't write their own lyrics. So okay, so somebody else wrote it. Yeah, I'm saying that only because I sometimes right here people and they get deep.

So it's like all we got do we have some one to see this person is lying or that person room it? Ski? Who are you right? Who are you writing for? A Ski? My my my brother was a rapp babacy. You know what I'm saying. We kind of did all things. And I also had autist that I wrote for. Okay, we got we got some music though I'm a D two. Okay, all right, I see as Charlotte maybe saying you talking gichi. Uh so I would say, don't box nobody in the moat. But I get that right,

we talk. I don't know if I got that right. For eight hundred five A five one oh five, No, no, I tried. We're asking should the court be able to use a rapper's lyric or song as evidence against them? That is the question. Let's talk about it. It's the Breakfast Club. Call me and your opinions to the Breakfast Club top eight hundred five five one morning. Everybody is DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlomagne the guy. We are the

breakfast Club. Now if you just join us, we're talking about should the court be able to use a rapper's lyric or song as evidence against them? Of course we're talking about Gunner and Thug. Over the weekend, Meek Mill had this to say, I want to say, support young Thug, support ourselves, support Gunning. Random guys, make sure you hitt fis your government's webbers. They control your tail and fight

for people like us. People like us that's right for you guys black art to take black art because now they's not lyrics against us and taking it into a court room. And this is the way that we found the way to feed our family. Now, I told you guys, I'm torn. I am to him because, like I said, in some cases like that the rapper from Houston that rapped about robbing ATMs and breaking into ATMs and then he got rested over the weekend for breaking into and

robbing at ATM and allegedly he's done this before. So if you rap about it, I'm not supposed to use that. And imagine if you do something to somebody, right, commit a crime, and then you rap about it in the song, how that would affect you and your family and people hearing it, if somebody really did something to you and then they had the nerve to rap about it. Yes,

and there are are songs like that. There are are songs that when I go to different markets, I don't play because I never know if the person's family is in the club. And sometimes songs sometimes it just art, and so that is sometimes it's just telling the story. It's like if it's a movie about something, you know, should that person be held alive. It's just hard to say because there's no one answer. I felt like across the board that you can say yes it should be

or no it shouldn't. It's usually like a case by case situation. Yeah, but you can't. You can't let the judge and the prosecutors go case by case because you know they don't understand the culture and they're just gonna try to get something done and somebody convicted. Hello, who's this Hello, This is the preef from Omaha, the Basket dj V and Angel Angel, what's going on and talk to us man? First of all, like to say free auto rappers man, or RP to auto rappers, all of us.

But you know these white people man, they want to do anything to like us black people up. And just like you said, these ain't envy with the young boy rapping about him the ATM. You know what I mean. If he using his rapplers and he's in a local area, you're telling on yourself. So they can use it as evidence. But as far as young Stug and gunner case man, they just gonna have to get the evidence to poo

that they actually did that. So yeah, but you know, the sad part about is we at that point now we're allowing some that's not from our culture to decide what they should use and what they shouldn't use, you know what I mean, which is the scary part. But these white people always been in control, so we we ain't stopping them. We just gotta be careful and living

and learn from what's going on. Like how Magniqus said, how McNeil said, and his little performance say, we just you gotta be careful now, you know what I mean. They did it to young thugging them, so it's like just be like little Dirt Man would be like the OTF when a little dirt said, this is all props, you know what I mean, so the police can't use this against you. That's how you gotta do. You gotta

think ahead. You gotta be smart now you're right, or even like Castanova when when when they when they use his lyric and said, oh you said you gang dstand the ovel and what the fifty say? This is fifty saying that song. I am not gang I do not gang bang, you know what I mean? Yeah, I mean, maybe the answer is stop saying that stuff in your music, But that's what people like, that's what sales records. I guess that's what they're saying. Hello, who's this Amanda? What

are your thoughts? Mama? Okay? So my issue is is that if we're going to charge them for using their art and they're freaking to speaching their words, are we going to charge the people that make the movies that predict what's gonna happen, especially when it comes to famine, COVID any other diseases wars Like, I don't know if that's about committing a crime. NA talk about the police. If somebody wrote a movie and then committed the crime and then they and then but they wrote the movie

about yeah, I'm sure they would lock them off. But you know there's been plenty of movies right there. Okay, So let me give an example reference to what they did with COVID. What's the name of that movie that came out years ago about the girl to sneeze and everybody caught the disease and they didn't do nothing about it and they knew what was going on. I don't think that's the same thing as COVID. That girl and started COVID. If she started COVID, she should be locked up.

I'm with you. No, I'm not saying she started COVID. What I'm saying is in terms of the lack of evidence, given the lack of information, given, we're not gonna get the full story of what happened with them in their case. I think I think that's a different situation. What this saying is if somebody commits a crime right gets arrested, then they want to charge you with it that they could use your lyrics. Now, if you wrote a movie but you didn't commit the crime. I'm with that lady.

I lady wrote the movie about COVID before we knew COVID. She started COVID. Yeah, she should get locked up for COVID. I'm with that lady. I don't think the lady wrote the movie, she's just started it. No, I'm with that lady that just called. I'm with you, mama. Let's go to one more caller. Hello, who's this know? This is m J from m J What I'm dumb it was going on. I was just out there in Detroit, man, what's going onna talk to us? What's your thoughts? So,

so here's my thing. I remember when Young Thug was going to an event and They asked him what was his thoughts on the events in the black community that would take good place, you know what, the police shooting, everything else going on, and Young Thugs said, I don't feel like rappers should have anything to do with that. I don't. I don't want to have nothing to do another that situation. So I'll say, keep that same energy.

Why mules politicket for him and ask it for the black community to support him, and he don't care nothing about the black community. I mean, that's ridiculous that he didn't say he didn't care about the black community. He didn't say that. They asked him a question and he said, I he didn't want to speak on certain things. But I do know Young Thug and Gunna has opened up shops to give kids uh school supplies, They help put people through college. They have done a lot of things

for the community. So I wouldn't say he did nothing for the community. Maybe in that topic, he didn't want to speak on it because he didn't have enough information. Like a lot of times, people ask you things, and if I don't have enough in the wrong thing, I don't want to say the wrong thing. So I'm not gonna say anything. So I'm not gonna say thug and gonna do nothing for the community because I know for

a fact that they have done before. Well, I don't know about Gunner, but young Thug, I just say, interview with me the wrong way did. The second part is Little Wayne told him a long time ago. Real gee's moving silence like Lasa, so he should use Why why would you tell o yourself in a ramp song? I mean that's just look, I look. I know Little Wayne probably don't beat up and shot some people in his song too, So you can't. You can't use Little Wayne as as an example. Leave him. Jay has done, Mek

has done fifty years done. Are you over here snitching? Eavy? Are you trying to tell the cops to go listen to these man's lyrics? Drink has even done it, So why are you snitching on Drake? Oh my god? All right, let's move on. Evy over here snitching? We gotta keep it moving. Oh my goodness, what's them all of the story? Man? Don't do nothing in front of him? Shut up? Yeah, we got rumors on the way. Yes, justin Bieber. He was supposed to be on tour, but he's had to cancel.

His next shows, and we'll tell you what's going on with him, really unfortunate situation. We'll tell you the syndrome that he has that is preventing him from touring. All right, we'll get into that next keeping locked this to Breakfast Club. Good morning,
