Boosey was here, he performed as well. Okay, all right,

so um shout outage. I tried to get home last night because was earlier, but there's no late flights. I think the latest flight is like four o'clock or something like that, so I couldn't get back. So I'm here in South Carolina. So I can't wait to get some. They told me shown these breakfast, that's what they tell me. And I ain't been shownies in years though. Years. Yeah, I don't know they still had shownies. I thought they

hadn't changed their name and everything. I don't know. They said, Showney's for breakfast, the blueberry biscuits, and then't they're gonna put me on the flight back home. So like you've been doing a lot of eating, and get you a bullberry biscuit if you're gonna do all that, Okay, maybe I'll try to. Well, I was in Miami over the weekend and I just went had to do this bitcoin Rodney. Uh. Yeah. It was like a conference on a yacht. So it was interesting. It was they had like different panels in

each room. Uh. And then I came back. That was it one day, all right, both of you little super spress y'all just out and about. Actually mine was very socially distanced. Y'all had on our masks and everything. So the party, yeah, I mean I wasn't in the crowd. I was on stay here by myself. So, uh, I don't have nothing to worry about, but I know I do see caiss of going up like crazy. I know a couple of people that actually got it that weren't vaccinated.

So again, if you're out and about, please be careful wear your mask. I got my mask on all the time, even though I'm vaccicated, just just vaccinated. But are you sure they didn't invasiate you, because that's the wrong thing. Even though he goes breton myth information and be on the reader talk about being vacicated whatever the hellined a lot of vacillations, right, that's not that's not like getting made. You get a surgery because you're start having kids, You're

going to get vacicated right now. I need to go get vacicated. Well, I believe Rose will be joining us to man. I love Dalen Rose. Yeah, he's gonna be joining us. We're gonna talk about everything NBA, everything he has going on, and of course the draft as well. Lot went on in the NBA. So we're gonna talk to him and a little bit and we got front

page news what we're talking about. Yes, and let's talk about this moratorium, you know, over the weekend that came to an end, and so they are expecting that evictions are gonna spike. It's already started, so we'll tell you what's going on with that. All right, we'll get into that next. It's to breakfast Club. Good morning told everybody is DJ Envy Angela Yee, Charlomagne the guy. We are to breakfast Club. Let's getting some front page news. Where

we start, Well, let's start with Cory Bush. Congresswoman Cory Bush has been sleeping outside of the capital to protest the end of the eviction freeze. You know that ended over the weekend. She posted, It's one am. Our solidarity is strong and our numbers are growing. Millions are at risk of being removed from their homes, and a democratic control government has the power to stop it, extend the eviction moratorium. Now here's what she said. These are policy

decisions that can be fixed. They could have been fixed a long time ago, so we wouldn't even wouldn't even be in this position with the house of crisis we have. So we cannot allow people to end up force out of their homes today. And let me say this, if we don't care about the people in our communities who are suffering in this manner, the country is judged by how we take care of the people that need us. The Most America has to do better if there has

to be a plan. Though, if there has to be a plan, and I'm gonna tell you why, because the misconception is only nothing but rich people owned buildings and on these places. But there's a lot of first time home investors that purchased an investment property. They can't pay

because their tenants won't pay, which is a problem. So if you if you help those people, which everybody needs help, you have to help those first time home investors too that own these properties because those those people can't pay pay their mortgage companies. So you got to help on both sides. And as Corey Bush just said, if the country is judged about how they treat people who needed the Most American field, that tests a long time ago. Absolutely, and they had plenty of time to come up with

the plan. We all knew this was about to happen, so the fact that it hasn't, but I do not agree with kicking people out of their homes at all. And it's Monday now, so imagine what it's going to be like today when the courts are open, people are locked out of their homes. They said more than fifteen million people live in households that owe as much as twenty billion dollars to their landlords, and as of July fifth, roughly three point six million people in the US they

faced eviction in the next two months. I know a lot of a lot of landlords that can't pay their mortgage, and they haven't been paid their mortgage in over a year. So you got to help both sides, and they got to figure out how they can help the people that actually own the properties and the tenants as well. You gotta help both. I just want to know, one of this country, you ever had a plan for the have knots? When of this country you ever had a pole up

for the people who need it? What did this country ever had a plan for the point this enfranchise when somebody school meeted out one And these things are getting worse right now with UH, with the with COVID and now people are getting evicted. Just imagine it's a health crisis, it's a housing crisis happening simultaneously. And that's the state the state thing too. It's not every state like I know New Jersey extended. Some states actually had the power

to extend. And crime will shoot up as well, all right, well, that is your front page news all right, get it off your chest eight hundred five eight five one oh five one.

Boosey said to the crowd over the weekend, he was like, well, it's the Breakfast Club gonna fly him to New York. He's gonna take over to New York to do the interview.

little more expensive. Boost Breakfast Club has never paid for anybody to come to the Breakfast Club never.

Who do you think was number one on that list? Michael Michael Jackson Thriller, Michael Jackson, I

forgot about Thriller. Yeat Michael Jackson Thriller. You know it's crazy. Thriller is not even in the top ten's. Billy Jean is at number ten on this list. Billy Jane, it wasn't list is null and void. Number nine, Peter Gabriel Sledgehammer, number uh oh. No. Number nine was Guns and Roses November Rain. Number eight Peter Gabriel. Number seven was DeAngelo untitled how does it Feel? Remember that one where he was spending around naked? All right, I had a lot

of guys on their workout regiment. By the way, all right, This is America was number four on that list. Child is gam being up? That was? I mean, This is America was great. But have you ever seen Have you ever seen the exhibit video of what you see at the Remember the exam one when he was walking and all the chaos was behind him, that this is America was to me? All right? Number three was Madonna Vogue

and number one on the list Beyonce Formation. I disagree with no Missy Ellie to Bust, to Run, can see thriller like No, I'm a pinket Smith Win Free knows Carter, but number one video of all time Rilla Dream. Come on. I mean, you know, these things are always subjective. It's not subjective, but it is. They definitely are definitely subjective. But I I just never have had that conversation about Formation being the number one video of all time. Michael

Jackson Thriller. All right, now, let's talk about Kevin Hart and Snoop dog. You know they've been doing commentary of the Olympics and so Olympic highlights with Kevin Harnet Stoop Dogg streamed on peacock over the last week. They were recapping some of the highs and lows during the games in Tokyo. So listen to this. The horses get medals when they win too or they don't get medals. That's a good question, Snoop. I've never seen a horse with a metal dude. They no, it goes to the person

on a horse, which should be changed. He ain't did nothing but just sat on the mother. I demand for a horse to get the respect that they deserve, have the same bragging rights as the jockey. You start to hang the medal on these horses neck so when they get around the other horses they can and show the other horse they get back there in the stall. Look

at y'all naked neck answers. I love it. Just you see how just a little bit of personality, just a little bit of realness, cut through because we so used to hearing this. The cookie Cutter announced his talk at one point, Snoops, that he got the horses krip walking. I saw that all right. Now. Kevin Hurts been all over the place. He even crashed ushers set in Vegas. I'm dying to go to this Usher show, by the way, And here's what happened when Kevin hurt joined him on

stage of the show. Now, we almost couldn't play that because up here our producers said that it was moaning. That's ad libs Oh, that was funny, all right, and Young Blue congratulations to him. He actually celebrated Moonboy selling twenty four thousand in the first week. Now Academics had posted that on his page and Young Blue said, big w first album. You got to sell twenty four k before you sell one hundred k, number thirteen on Billboard.

First album all independent odds against us. I only had like ten percent of the industry supporting and posting my ish still did my thing only up from here classic Moonboy. It's a great album. I respect his optimism. That's how you should feel. You should be appreciative of what you sold. Yeah, it's a really good album too, So if you guys haven't listened to it, make sure you do. And four

two Doug has deleted something that he said on social media. Now, I'm sure y'all saw this video over the weekend where he is it's his son and he's with his son and he kind of licks his neck. Did y'all see this video? And ended up going viral and people had all kinds of jokes about it, and you know, he posted,

ain't nobody going for that gay? I don't even want to say all this, but it was it was a very homophobic rant, and he did delete that and apologize since He went to his Instagram to apologize for the initial delete. He said, it never being my intentions to offend anybody, even when I'm offended, So for that, I am sorry. Usually I'm a very private person when it comes to personal ish such as my son or my

family in general. People always tell me I need to take more pictures or you know, let my fans see something about me other than music. Yesterday I called myself doing that. My son's birthday was over the weekend, so I decided I would let y'all see how much fun we had. You know, the pictures videos I posted to my son wasn't put out for feedback. That was us being us. So for y'all to take that and make it what y'all did just reminded me of why I

keep my family private, he said. I will not be showing my son or any of my family on this ish again. It's just crazy though, that a man showing any type of affection to his child is considered anything other than a man showing love to his child. Right, that's his child. I mean, like, I get it. Some people are like I would never to do that, but

you know, I don't think he meant anything. But you know, when you put things on social media, people just be weighing in, so I understand he don't want to put that on there. Again, he's no longer sharing what y'all lost that privilege. Okay, all right, and that is your rumor reports. All right, thank you, miss ye. Now we got front page news. When we come back, things are about to get worse before they get better. We'll tell you what doctor Anthony Fauci has to say. All right,

we'll get into that. Next. It's to breakfast Club. Good morning, So breakfast Club, your morning's will never be the same. Angela here and the General Insurance has been helping people save money for nearly sixty years. Take a closer look at the General and get the great low rates and quality coverage you deserve for it has a free quote today called eight hundred General or go to the General

dot com. Some restrictions apply. Morning. Everybody is dj Envy Angela Yee, Charlomagne the guy we all to breakfast Club. Let's getting some front page news all right. Now for the weekend, the USA men's basketball team bea Czech Republic one nineteen eighty four on Sunday, they advanced to the knockout stage. Now and then some NBA. It looks like they're saying Carmelo Anthony is unlikely to return to the Blazers. He might come to the next sign They might come

to the Knickson might come to the Lakers. They are saying. Also, Kawhi Leonard and Chris Paul are now unrestricted, meaning I guess they can decide if they want to get traded or go to another team. See I'm not traded. They get they can get there in free agents. Yeah, free agency, so they can go to another team. So they're saying Kawhi Leonard might go to the Mavericks, That's what they've been saying, and maybe Chris Paul to the Lakers. Who knows Douai. Yeah, And I doubt Chris Paul is leaving

the Sons. Highly doubt it. All right, but we'll see And salute the Jasmine. Camacho quinn Um and Raven sign Is both representing the eight four three Jasmine. Camarcho Quinn won gold in the hurdles I believe this weekend, and Raven Signs won silver and the shot puts, so dropping a clues bond for the eight point three the low Country South Carolina all day, yeah, bust and ask. And

also the women's basketball team USA Basketball team. I think they're undefeated now, so now they are on the metal round. So congratulations to those ladies. Asia Wilson representing the eight old three to Metro Columbia South Carolina playing for the women's basketball team. Alright, what else? What else we got? Easy? And also Simone Bows is returning for the balanced team, so she's returning to competition in Tokyo. She'll be competing

on Tuesday. A little yeah everything, No, no, just a couple of but yeah, I'm glad to see her back in there. And she described why she was having some air awareness issues referred to as the twisties. All right, now, doctor Fauci is saying that things are going to get worse because of unvaccinated individuals, but also he doesn't foresee a lockdown. He said that we have enough of the percentage of people in the country, not enough to crush the outbreak, but he thinks that we're not going to

be in the situation that we were in previously. Here is doctor Fauci. I don't think we're going to see lockdowns. I think we have enough of the percentage of people in the country, not enough to crush the out break, but I believe enough to not allow us to get into the situation we were in last winter. But things are going to get worse. If you look at the acceleration of the number of cases, the seven day average has gone up substantially. What does he mean when he

says things are going to get worse. I mean I would think the worst is what happened last year, right That's what he's talking about right now. Look like he's talking about right now with the delta variant, that the numbers are going to go up before they go back down. So what he's saying is they're not going to get better right away. We haven't seen the peak of this outbreak from this delta variant. In the next two or

three weeks, he thinks the numbers gonna get worse. And they're saying that you're seeing more numbers like you see the results of Fourth of July celebrations and then I'm sure if you saw a lot of palooza, you saw what Roland load was like, you can see those numbers. Florida has the highest numbers right now. So yeah, I mean, yeah, that is terrible. But you know, the worst is, you know, when people can't go to work. So folks care about being on lockdown and not being able to work more

than anything. So when I hear him say the worst but then say we're not going back on lockdown, I'm like, Okay, what is the worst? You know? Rising cases? Yes, And I think it's also bad because school is about to start again too, and kids a lot of kids aren't eligible to get vaccinated, so I'm sure that doesn't help either.

But as far as being fully vaccinated, they did say at least one hundred and twenty five thousand fully vaccinated Americans have tested positive for COVID and fourteen hundred of those have died. They're culling those breakthrough cases in thirty eight states, And so what they're saying is a number of people who are vaccinated fully that actually have tested positive represent less than point eight percent of the one hundred and sixty four point two million plus people who

have been fully vaccinated since January. Why do they play the percentage game though, because you know, one hundred and twenty five thousand people one hundred and twenty five thousand people. Because you can do the percentage game with anything. You could do that with actual COVID deaths, you could say six hundred thousand of three twenty million is a low percentage.

Like I don't. I think they're trying to encourage people to get vaccinated because they're saying that there's a very low percentage if you're fully vaccinated that you'll get it. Of course, there's a breakthrough cases because it's one hundred percent effective. But for some people who are saying, well, I'm not going to get vaccinated because some people are getting it, they're saying it does offer you protection. Well, I think I know a lot more people will get

vaccinated when it's fully approved by the FDA. They're working on that now. They said they're working on that now. But I mean, it's very scary. We've been talking behind the scenes about people that we know who have who recently got COVID and got the delta vari and how it's affecting their body. So it's very scary. It is very scary. Wear your mask and like I said, I'm I'm scared for my kids at this point because they can't get vaccinated. You know, they're under the age, so

but they still have to go to schools. It's just very scary, right and you know, and in Florida, the governor has blocked school mask mandates. So Florida Governor around the Santis has issued an executive order Friday he blocked those mandates in schools, saying parents have the right to decide if their kids should wear face coverings or not. He said, in Florida, there will be no lockdowns, there will be no school closures. There would be no restrictions

and no mandates in the state of Florida. In Texas, the governor they're assigned an executive order prohibiting mask mandates or vaccine requirements from government agencies and municipality statewide. And can somebody as doctor Fauchi somebody or someone about the herd immunity thing, because I would feel like that would have kid then already right well, And I think it's also because it's a variant too, so it's a different it's mutated, and it's a lot more transmissible than the

previous COVID nineteen that we had. So they're saying this one is just like the chicken pox, like the way that it transmits. All right, and that is your front page news. All right, thank you, miss ye. Now when we come back, Jalen Roles will be joining us the legend. That's right. We're gonna kick it with Jalen Roles. Everything that's going on from NBA to sports to all that to the move Jalen Roles. When we come back, it's the Breakfast Club Goal Morning, the Breakfast Club Morning. Everybody

is DJ Envy and Angela Yee, Charlemagne the guy. We are the Breakfast Club. We got a friend to the room, a brother to the room. Man, I feel like I feel like I really know you because I watch you every day. You know, that's mutual. Literally every day I watched every day. What up? Don't what's going on? Man? Welcome back first and foremost, and how are you. I'm

doing great. I'm doing great. It's it's been a tough to be honest, it's been a tough like twelve to eighteen months for me personally and professionally, in my family in particular, Thank you very much. I went from being one of the people in the crowd that was really fortunate to be like I haven't had a lot of depths in my family. And you know, my grandmother's a hundred years old. And then before you know it, you know, I lost my my uncle, my uncle Paramore Rest in peace.

And then I lost my eldest brother, who was in his early sixties. And then I lost my grandmother. And then in February, I lost my mom. Is that all due to COVID none due to COVID none due to COVID. Uh my mother had cancer. Um she was a heavy cigarette smoker and uh she was in hospice, you know in December and January, and you know that kind of stuff just changed you. Like I woke up one day. I never met my biological father. He died in the

mid two thousands, Jimmy Walker. And I was just doing the draft and sitting there and it actually hit me that I was an orphan. Like I was like, wow, you had your mom though, when you don't have living parents, you're considered a norphan. And basketball is the tie to my family. Like like, so I ain't think about I ain't working the draft. My father was a number one pick in sixty seven. Your mama used to push you and tell you my mother was the one that got

me into the game. She created the name Jalen, combining his name James and my uncle Leonard, who took her to the hospital to give birth. And now I'm sitting there watching Jalen Green walk across the stage, Jalen Suggs walk across the stage, Jamie Johnson walk across the stage,

and my mom created the name. Yeah, I remember I read something, maybe it was in the Fab five doctor the name Jalen shot up during your Fab five days or something like this, like you were naming And that's that's That's the most humbling thing that's ever happened in my life from my career, to have people come up to me and tell me the origins of why somebody

name is Jalen. And if you notice, each of them are under thirty years of age, because when I was in college, it was from ninety one to ninety four. You and you, You and nas I think I think for a lot of names, how you how you dealing with that grief joke? I remember watching you. I think he was on Maria Taylor when you was just you know, talking, and you clearly broke down, like how you dealing with it? Then?

And uh, I think being hardened by society and just being a black man and being an athlete and growing up in the street. We're learning to suppress our pains and or masket whether it's party and drinking or smoking or bad habits or whatever. So it's it's been a unique space for me in a lot of ways. But I'm really fortunate. I'm highly favored, and uh, it's just one day at a time. Really, that's kind of how I handle it, and the responsibilities in my life change.

Like I tell young people all of the time, the circumstances in your life change when all of your bills are in your name, you know what I'm saying, Like, oh, not your phone bill, not your car insurres, like all of your bills are in your name. And I found myself doing the state planning as a forty forty eight year old man and four of the people that were like a part of that are gone. Wow. Wow wow, And it was kind of eerie to have to do that over the last you know, month or so. Wow.

Was there ever times in like high school, college, even the pros, where you felt the way you felt mentally and emotionally, like, you know, we see everybody taking it their breaks now because we understand what mental health is. Was just the most difficult thing mentally you had to do with yes. And shout out to Naomi Osaka, shout

out to Simone Bios. I support, I salute them. I remember being a young famous kid from the Inner City, and I was ready athletically to compete, and I had the eye of the tiger to try to be a dog and to try to be a member of the

Fat five and to make it to the league. But I remember there was a time we were about to play Duke and it was a big CBS game, and I executive produced the Fat Five documentary, and I remember watching this interview where we were all sitting there for the first time, and I remember thinking like, damn, my skin is messed up, my teeth is messed up. I'm broke, I don't have a haircut, Like do I even deserve

to be here right now? And it was mask as you guys know, if it's black men in particular, you know, just shut up and deal with it. And so we suppress our pain in a lot of ways, in our anxiety in a lot of ways. And so that was a pivotal point for me in my life then and losing the family members I've recently lost. Now, I'm not saying this because this next thing, because i think I'm harder or anything. I'm saying this because it's okay to

share emotion. I've probably only cried maybe five times in like twenty five years, I see right right, like, regardless of what has happened to me, And I've been through a lot of turbulence, trials of tribulations like we all have. And each of those situations challenged me, Charlemagne, to reevaluate, you know, taking my mental health serious and evaluating like like when you get on the airplane, securing your mask first. That's a real thing because when you become a success story,

you guys know it. You know it. You go from being a part of the crew to being the boss, the leader, the bread winner, and that becomes a lot of responsibility and uh, you know it's it's been. It's been an amazing journey, and I'm really happy how I've been able to overcome a lot of the things that I've dealt with. Then, I just want to inspire others, not keep it like we have more with Jalen Rose when we come back. It's the Breakfast Club, co Morning Putting.

Everybody is DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlomagne the guy. We are the Breakfast Club. We're still kicking it with Jalen Rose. What do you think about people that say, like, and I've been seeing this all over social media, you know, like for instance, Simone Biles, she trained all her life

for that moment. She you know, went to practice eight hours a day and trained seven days a week, and now when she got to the moment, she didn't follow through, you know, And they say the same thing less like if Tom Brady got to the super Bowl and Super Bowl days say, you know what, I don't want to do this. So Michael Jordan game six, you know, and like, you know what, I'm not playing, you know. So what do you see to those people that that don't see

it on the same way that you see? So a lot of those people, about seventy five percent of old people think January sixth at the Capital was a picnic. A lot of those people, you know, So there's nothing I can say it to this microphone four hundred and fifty years that's going to even compute to them that we're more than athletes, We're more than jocks. We're not

gonna shut up and dribble, right. And so for the people who feel like you practiced your entire life and now this is the major moment, this is what I want them to understand. Michael Jordan won three championships, lost his father and took a mental health break and took two years of health breaks. We didn't have the language for it back then, but that's what he did. He was an adult when in the NBA, the goat already, she's twenty four, twenty five years old, Like it's it's

way different when you're a kid. That's what that is. And so she actually showed mature to me by saying, this isn't about me. I don't feel my best, So I will take a step back and allow you guys to flourish because this isn't all about me. Now, imagine if she would have said she was going to perform and then all of a sudden, before she started to compete, she didn't have it. And this is what I want to say about what she does for a living. It's different from all of us. She gotta be perfect all

of the time. She playing basketball. I can make a turnover, I can miss a shot, My bad, My bad. I can go. I'll kick it the night before. If it's a bad game, it's a bad game. We play again. She gotta stick the landing each time. She has to be perfect. She has to get a ten. And by the way, when she wasn't her best, she's still qualified. And the other thing, Team USA is over there, right. But a guy like Kevin Durant gets a chance to

compete in one sport and get one medal. She's competing in four different actions for four medals, and also has to be perfect. So that's a way different exercise than she's juggling. And also too, you know, Simone Biles, we don't know what she's already pushed through, you know what I mean, Mary Nasser, That's what I'm saying. She was one of the abuse victims of So imagine you're going to your place of your home, your place of work, your sanctuary as an athlete. That happened to her during

that period of time. Most people wouldn't want to compete ever again, ever again, and they would feel and I would feel, and to be honest, as I say this out loud, I'm surprised they don't feel. I would feel neglected by that governing body that allowed me to be abused that now turns around and asked me to go out and compete for them. The crazy part about it is we don't hear these stories a lot of times. Like I was talking to somebody this weekend and it

was like, maybe you would know better. They said, Alan Iverson would only eat a peanut butter and jelly sandwich before the games because if not, his anxiety and his stomach were give him the bubbles because he was playing in front of so many people. So he would only eat a peanut butter and jelly would keep his stomach good. I've got another example for you, and I know I'm not speaking out of school because this is family and everybody this in the league kind of know about this.

Rod Strickland was like that too, the panic attacks. Rod Strickland would be one of those guys that basically would need to go throw up in the towel before the game. Really yeah, I remember playing with him later in our career as we've played in Toronto, and you know, I was more established in that situation. I was the captain, I was the highest paid player on the team. And

this is Rod Strickland. This is a legend to me, like twenty ten, Like I remember, I'm still mad at the Knicks they broke up him and Mark Jackson and I'm from Detroit. That's Rod fresh cut, best fitted like current Kyrie. Everybody who ain't absolutely see him play right, And I'm like, I don't want them to see the og like this because you know it might affect his

job security with this squad. And so before a couple of games when he would go and do that, I was in there trying to clean it up for him and with them, you see what I mean. And so everybody, did you encounter easy either in a storm, just got out of a storm or going through a storm. That's an absolute fact. Now how we handle that is the measure of our character and just perseverance. How did it

change everything going forward? I mean not just sports, but life will really sports because they have everything there for you physically. You got all the trainers and people to get y'all right physically. What's that gonna do to the sports world? Mentally? Do you have therapists on the team counselor is what? Well, that's come a long way. I was using this example yesterday. There was a time when players just didn't have all access to the team facility.

Look back at some of the old footage of Larry Bird in the mid eighties when he's at the arena running a conc horse. It's dark. It's dark. He didn't think about Larry Bird didn't have access to the gym. Wow. And so as relationships grow and you get paid more, you become partners and owners start to appreciate you more than just being, you know, a commodity. Then they started to treat you more with like a level of autonomy, like you see Aaron Rodgers dealing with this right now

with the Green Bay Packer. And so the teams now do a great job not only trying to low manage quote unquote players with their injuries. And to me, it's a difference between recovery from a horrific injury, like if Kawhi Leonard is gonna miss some games, like I saw him mess up his knee, like that need's gonna be messed up. You mess up, your knee's gonna be messed

up forever. That type of thing. But the exact same thing they are now doing for mental health, making sure counselors are available, make sure that you have the support you need. Teams are doing a terrific job or making sure that athletes and your support group, your family, your kids, and even retire players definitely have access if they want to take advantage. I know you got fifteen minutes and you gotta go. I know you gotta live. Hit Russell Westbrook,

La Lakers. What's your thoughts. I'm so happy for Russ because he about to reinvent himself. You think so watch this family. This happened with Carmelo Anthony. If Mello would have ended his career after being released by the Houston Rockets, we'll look at my guy, the future Hall of Famer, and the narrative that people would have pending pad they were write different about him. But he goes to Portland,

resurrects his name because top ten scoring. You get a chance to get them see him come back to New York. You get a chance to see him like go out like he's supposed to right. Russell Westbrook has always been an underappreciated player. I'm gonna tell you why. He plays the same speed the entire game. And this is the greatest compliment I could pay him. He plays like they're

not keeping right. So the first two minutes of the game, he's gonna play with a reckless abandon the last two minutes of the game, where everybody like, hold on, slow it down. I don't care if you at the park. I don't care where are you at. It's like, all right, his game on, slow it down, Hey, hold on, Russ like, nah, we're going right right, And so that is what people,

that's what makes him more the most polarizing. But as far as his productivity and his speed and his killer instinct and breaking the big old triple double record and his rebounding and stuff, he's gonna be great for the Laker. And I keep it like, we have more with Jalen Rose. When we come back, it's the Breakfast Club Morning Morning. Everybody is DJ Envy Angela Yee, Charlomagne, the guy we are the Breakfast Club. Were still kicking it with Jalen Rose. Charlomagne.

I love seeing you and Chris Weubber back on good terms too, man, Like, how do you how do you think that healing happened. I think it happened through the loss of my mother. I really do. Because his parents were at the funeral. See See, this is what's crazy about relationships like you and I may not be like you and I maybe family for ten or fifteen years and fall out, but we still got so many people in common and they shouldn't become collateral damage because as adults,

we're not currently seeing out eye. So it's dumb. When I'm at my mom's funeral, I'm hugging his mother and father and me and him ain't seeing out eye. Life is too short for that, And so I just think that became a seminal moment to where it was like, all right, it's kind of just kind of put down the gloves. What was that conversation? Because I saw when he got into the Hall of Fame he was on with you, and I heard him say that at the m man, you know how much I love your mom.

And I'm like, wait a minute, We're missing a whole storyline here. When did that reconciliation happen? Well, to be fair, in theory, if there's to be a sit down on an out of eye or one on one, that's supposed to happen now that the season has ended, right, and I don't know if I'm gonna say it because I just you know, life life, maybe over tomorrow. This is

something that you guys would be proud of. I literally looked down at my phone yesterday and there was a text from Seawhere to the other four members of the Five Five, and he told us he loved us, he appreciated us, and he invited us to be at his Hall of Fame ceremony. That's incredible. Couldn't be any other way though, And I responded, wouldn't miss it for the world. That's real, you know, and shout to Ray Jackson who recently lost his father. And it's like growing up in

the public eye. It's crazy. I get a chance to run into like media members and people that have been assassinating my character for thirty years. It's crazy as you start to become an adult. So I think we will be healed moving forward. Jalan's the head coach, doing a great job, but you of him if you guys ever in Michigan. I'm a season ticket holder, love you guys to come to a game and represent. But it's gonna be great when we're all standing at half quarter. That

in ann Arbor, Michigan. While Juwan suited and booted coaching the team and they're honoring our team. That's right, that's right. You know, I know you're happy to that the NCAA is finally letting college athletes get paid. That's something you've been champion in forever. You've been on the front lines

of that fight for every right. It's crazy. As you started to get older, I remember like watching Muhammad Ali get vilified for so very long, and it hurt me when I saw him carrying the torch in Atlanta and he had heavy Parkinson's and I took it almost as like we we waited this long as a country to

celebrate my hero and that really bothered me. And I felt like that about the Five five and the NCAA for so very long because people were lining their podt kids and the fans know what we brought to the table, the five five with we bar to the culture. And I just remember those years being called a thug or being called a hoodlum. And by the way, some of my college years I actually was you know what I'm saying, that was right, but we are not allowed to grow

and mature. And so I am happy for the NCAA that they now realize that thiss indentured servitude that you've been doing. And I'm gonna be frank, it happens in the sports dominated by black athletes. It's such a remnant of slavery. Right, it's all right, after high school football player, you can't go to the league for three years. But if you play tennis, if you play golf, if you want to be a race car driver professional and immediately

you could be a pro immediately. That was only in football, and that's only in basketball, and coincidentally, in particular football, these are the sports that fund the entire athletic program, the entire athletic program. So in other words, I need to keep you in school to fund the program and make money for the school. And so it's it's obvious that it was gonna eventually happen. But I'm happy that is finally happening. But better late than that, the work retroactively,

because I believe those five jerseys come on. Man, not only that, but like you know, people lost their Hoisman trophies. But here's what's crazy, and like that's why I'm really fortunate that we stand on the shoulders of giants. We didn't know about trademarking and all of that in the early nineties, and I stumped some young people the other day. I was like, I didn't know my credit scoring college. Like we were like times were I was using a

floppy disk. And so imagine if we were able to trademark in one way, shape or form the entire fab five black socks. The first time we wore black socks. Three of us had on black socks, two of us had on dress socks. I don't dress socks over my white socks. They didn't even have five pairs of black socks at the mall. They didn't have five pair of black socks at the mall. What about Harachis yea, those came out, got re released a couple of times. So like,

there were so many things. The longer shorts, that was something that wasn't being done and so not gonna be. You got to head out of here. Man, We appreciate you for joining us.

We'll get that bag ready for Nicki and and you know, I'm sure she'll be there. That's actually dope. I like when people who actually, you know, like a show and actually watch a show hosts those type of events like ninety day fiance or something like that. Did y'all see what Angela looks like now?

Also, the Kanye's album Disturbing My Soul. I told you no more Beef. Patty just chicken. Okay, all right, now let's talk about

beaniec on a drink Champs. You know, great conversation, great discussion. A lot of things were talked about. Now some of the things discussed on Drink Champs of Beanie Seagull because y'all know Nori was on the Breakfast Club talking about doing the verses with Beanie Seagull. But it looks like that was all a ploy to make all of this happen in these conversations. But one thing he talked about was going to He almost missed this Rockefeller meeting because he wanted to go to a dog fight the day

that day was going to Rockefeller Rockets. Murder Mill had a dog named Mikey grand Chant. This is a sure shot. I'm trying to go back this money or Mikey. So a call was like, Yo, come up, come up. I'm like all right, but I'm trying to duck them and it's just for the rod. Oh that's right. So when Boo Ban he offered it, he was like, Yo, come with me. I'm like, all right, I'm gonna come all right. In addition to that, he talked about falling out with

jay Z. That really heard him Carl Swiss. There is this rumor that one time that Jay got don't understand and they asked him, would you be responsible for beings? And he said, uh, absolutely, What state did that put you in? All right? Put it like this, Rockefeller Ruckus was the only thing that I've ever been a part of that I thought was honest. I'm from South Philly, so my ship, yeah you know what I mean. Prying next to you, turn around, blow your hand off. So

me being with Rockefeller the lie familiar. I held onto that. In addition, he talks about an instance where he actually pulled out a gun on New York Ohen So Leo was like, yo, listen, I'm not asking you to go hammer. I don't even know if you could spell hammer. So I don't know who Leo is at the time. I don't even know who the Why are we even talking to him? I said, you're gonna start the car. So as we're leaving up, I'm like, yo, you're talking Toon Like,

I don't know, but it's snuff. Leo pulled out. Oh you pulled out on Leo? Cold. Yeah, that's a It's a great interview on drink Champs and you know, being beings hold himself accountable for a lot of things. And you know, even when he was discussing, you know, pulling out to him on Leo Cole and he was like, that's why I hold didn't want to be all the way responsible from Yeah, I mean that's situations like that right. In addition, he also discussed the whole versus battle they

talked about that Swiss. No, don't know, it's already been called. Make it happen, it's already been don't worry about it. You're good trusting out of her mind. No, no, no, I want it just as much as in fact, I welcome there, so trust me. I want it. But let me tell yourself, being, I really put you, I really got love for you. I'd love to do this battle, I really do. Yeah. But besides that, I don't want to battle somebody that's a suck. I want to battle

somebody that's real. And listen. You can listen to the Drink Champs Uh podcast on the Black Effect I Heart Radio podcast Network. And I know you look at Drink Champs time and you say, damn, this podcast is almost three hours. If you're a hip hop level, it flies by. Yeah, other things He also Benie Seagull doesn't think that modern day hip hop has a lot of substance. And he

also talked about the Hard Knocked Life tour. He talked about helping to discover Just Blaze also and jay Z and Damon Dashes, falling out of how you could kind of feel it, his relationship with Cameron, how he respects Cameron, and Cameron gave him a lot of advice and game, all of those things Just Blaze stories. Though I didn't know that Kanye West and Just Blade's first placements with with Beanie Benie Seagull, but I learned that on that

Drink Champs. All right, well that is your room of reports. Shout out to Nori again, man, I love with Nori and and they're doing with Drink Champs. Absolutely. And also let me shout out to jerked jerked when you're talking to Patois earlier. It made me hungry, man shouted jerked in Jersey. Man. They said you come all the time to charlot Hey jerk hacking tack. Oh yeah, yeah, I've been there a couple of times. Absolutely. All right, well,

who are you giving your down? Kat? We need Joe manson the real Joe that's running this country to come to the front of the cargation. We'd like to have a world with him. All right, we'll get into that next. Keep a lock this to breakfast Club. Come morning, the Breakfast Club, Your mornings will never be the same. At simple Mobile, you get the no contract advantage with no mystery fees, no activation fees, and no contract ever. Simple Mobile out with the old in with simple terms and conditions.

At simple mobile dot com. This is a miracle. There is no question that there are problems in this country between police and community. Yeah, you are a donkey to the latest on that police killing of a black man. Not a new developments in the deadly spawshooting rampage. It was a really bad day for him and this is what he did, and so we are in a state of emergency. Okay, White suprematives violence is always have been the number one threat to otracide. But I'm also very

proud that my wife was white because the breakfast club. Bitches, Please tell me why was I your donkey over day? Wow, good morning donkey today from Monday, all the second goes to the real Joe that is running this country. What Joe am I talking about if you chose Biden for five hundred Alex, you are incorrect. I'm talking about Joe Manson, Okay, the Senator from West Virginia who doesn't give a damn

about progress in this country. Okay, especially black progress. I would say, I mean, that's just my opinion because if he cared about black progress, if he cared about the Democrat's most loyal voting blocked, then he wouldn't be the reason that legislation that directly impacts black people would get blocked on the regular. All right, Joe Mansion is the

Senator of GOP leaning West Virginia. If you think for one second and he gives a damn about what the Democratic Party gives a damn about, then I got some air from a Kanye West listening party. I want to sell you. Okay, Now, yesterday Joe Mansion was on CNN State of the Union with Jake Tapper, and he was asked a direct question about whether he could imagine supporting a carve out to filibust the rules to help pass voting rights legislation. Why do we need voting rights legislation?

Because I have told y'all on radio as simply as I possibly can that they're trying to stop your black ass right to vote. All right, and there's this thing called the filibuster, And if they get rid of the filibuster, they can actually get some things done, Okay, like voting rights legislation. For all my folks who don't know what the filibuster is, I've told y'all over and over. It's

just kyd blocking. Okay, that's all any attempt to block a delay Senate action on a bill or other matter by debating it at left, by offering a bunch of procedural motions, and other delaying or obstructive actions. So all you have to do is vote to get rid of the filibuster, and the Biden administration could get some things done because the Philip buster is what is used to block most of Biden's agenda. So the economy, voting rights, police reform, all of that could be passed if they

got rid of the filibuster. Why because the Democrats have a majority that depends on a tie breaking vote from one Vice President Kamala Harris. Okay, if they got rid of the filibuster, they could pass legislation without Republicans. Well, I played y'all. Audio of GEOP lawmakers caught on tape laughing and thanking Joe Manchin and Kursten Cinema for keeping the labus the alive because if because without that, they would be dead meat. Dead words not mine. Listening again

in case you missed it. But the reality is they're pushing as far as they can fortunately for us to filibuster still in effect in the Senate. Without that, we would be dead meat. Then we'd be having a little bit more frantic discussion than we're having today. But thank goodness for Cinema and Joe Mansion. I like it when

AOC is going after Joe Mansion. For me, you know, it makes my job easier as a conservative because you know, I can go to Joe Mansion or Curson Cinema and be like, hey, guys, you know, and I'm really sorry you're having to go through that. That's that's just a shame GP law makes thinking Joe Mansion and Christian Cinema for helping them. Okay, now with fall let Joe Manch, who still believes he can't imagine the world where he

would support a carve out the filibust the rules. This is him on State of the Union yesterday with Jake Taper Listen, is there any circumstance under which you could imagine allowing a carve out for the I know you oppose getting rid of the filibuster, but there's some people like Angus King's main is an Independent, who said that he's possibly willing to step back from the filibuster, his opposition to getting rid of the filibuster just for voting rights,

because he's so concerned and it becomes it's become so part of us, And can you imagine ever doing that, Jake? I can't imagine a car back, Jesus, not even a carve out, not even a carve out of voting rights. Can we get an explanation? Because I was here in twenty thirteen and it was called a carve out. We're just going to do they need cabinet for the president. And then it went into we're going to do the judges who are lifetime appointments for circuit industry. They're even

going to do Supreme Court. But they didn't at that time. The Democrats were in control. Twenty seventeen, Miss McConnell's in control. Comes right back in and guess what that carve out, worked to really carve us up pretty bad. Then you got the Supreme Court, so there's no stopping it. We just need a car vote to protect voting rights. Voting rights the cornerstone of democracy. We can't get a carve out for that. I see. This is this is why

just voting Democrat doesn't always mean progress. Okay, Joe Manson is willing and able to block his party's progressing for what because he's not beholden to the Democratic Party. His political brand isn't hitch to the Democratic wagon. He's a senator okay, in GOP leading West Virginia, a very red state. He's not giving that up for you negros. All right, Salute to West Virginia, by the way, to this biscuit world, dropping a clue bump to this biscuit world. My god, amazing.

Who cares if you negros is mad? Okay? Joe Manson knows where his white bread is buttered. Apologies, he doesn't want butter, he wants manas. Let me do that again. Joe Manson knows where his white bread is manaced. And it's not what you negros and you negro lovers. Okay, here's the thing. I just will never understand why anyone who claims to be a patriot, who claims to be a proud citizen of the United States of America isn't trying to fight like hell to preserve what is the

cornerstone of democracy. Free and fair elections are what democracy is all about. So if you love America like you say you do, you would fight like hell so folks can have the right to vote. Well, I can guarantee you this. If Joe Manson's people's voting rights would threaten, he would be acting like it. It would be a totally different sense of urgency in regard to protecting voting rights. But it's just mostly you need grow so who cares? Okay, if that's not the case, Joe Mansion has to show

me that's not the case. But hey, I've been alive long enough to know that when a person consistently shows you who they are, believe them when something changes. If something changes, if Joe Mansion starts doing the right thing by this democracy, I will let you know. Until then, please let remy Mark give Joe Manson the biggest he hall, heh, heh, You stupid mother, Are you dumb? All right? Well? Thank you for that. Donki today, sir, Yes, ma'am. Now, when

we come back, we have doctor Muhammad joining us. She's a professor at Howard University. You're gonna talk about social name you don't want to say our first name bya Mohammed Mohammed. Yes, she's gonna talk about Social Justice Week at Howard University, which is this week today, yup stars today. So we're gonna talk to her when we come back to Dope Move. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning, the Breakfast Club Morning. Everybody is DJ Envy Angela Yee, Charlemagne

the guy. We are the Breakfast Club. We have a special guest in the building, doctor Bahia Muhammad. Welcome, Thank you, how peas queen, how are you good? Peace? I am well excited to be here. Now listen, he's gonna hate on you already. Wait what what tell me a little bit more why I'm not gonna hate on you? Okay, sign it? You represent you know a nice school. You know what I mean. But I'm just you know, I'm not. I love I love all HBCUs is all really really good.

I'm so excited to see that. I love it. I love it all. I said, wait a minute, let me get right. Okay, well we'll tell them who you are, what's your what's your title and everything. Doctor Vahia Muhammed. I'm an associate professor at Howard University and the Department of Sociology and Criminology, College of Arts and Sciences. UM. I've been there for about eight years. I absolutely love it. It's the first experience teaching at at HBCU. So you

already know loving on the students black excellence. I mean, it just doesn't get any better. Agree with you. And you're the founding I've not even heard of something like this, but you're a founding director for Howard University's Higher Education in prison programming. Yes, okay, taking students into facilities. I teach criminal justice, So for me, I think you need to really get close to it in order to really understand.

So I teach the classes inside of the prison. Half of the students are incarcerated, the other half of them matriculated at the university, and we read the same things and really try to identify ways that we can love on those in our families that are incarcerated. UM. But

also to support around social justice initiatives. What does criminal legal reform really mean and what actually can you do if you're not intimate with the system, If you've never entered a facility, how have you mastered it even if you pay for the degree. So really trying to get students to understand you have to be a whole lot more focused than just the books, and you have to be intimate with the experience. And if you don't start in your own family, you may get it wrong out

there trying to do the right things. That's real. That's like an eloquent way of like Alando and training day when he gave the drugs and he was like a good narcotice detective was no appreciate That's exactly it. That's exactly it. How important are HBCUs to our community? HBCUs are the community? You know, when I think about DC Howard University is Chocolate City, right, like as we think about gentrification and we think about the different ways in

which communities are configured. HBCUs are those campuses where you getting it hot off the press, you know, like this this is not that type of research instructors that are you know, coming in and asking any sort of question in order to check a box like, you have individuals that strategically can write these different questions and ways that

get at the heart of what's going on. And these are your instructors, and they look like you deans with braids and locks, and you know, students from across the African diaspora. So many individuals feel that blackness is just one thing, and it is so dynamic. I never even knew that there was a place like an HBCU where you could really just get loved on in your mind and your soul in your heart. If I have students that come to me and say, look, I can't do

that assignment. My brother was shot last week. Like, I don't need the evidence. I don't need to ask any more questions. Babies. Take your time when you're ready to write, we'll get back to it. Very different than what you see at predominantly white institutions. I think there's a space for both. But to have that HBCU experience is something that connects individuals and ways that is untangible. You can't touch it. It's something you feel. I'm so interested in

the HEAP program like that. How would give you any pushback when you presented the idea to have students living side of the prisoner. Absolutely not, absolutely not. Let me tell you I wanted to go to Howard specifically because when I looked at the landscape of what was going on, there weren't a lot of black and brown folks going in. We're black and brown folks are incarcerated. So for me, it was just like, da, how do we get to the point where we begin to engage in real talk conversations.

The brother always comes home, the uncle comes home, We go to the cookouts, we're all chilling, were all excited, but we never sit down and break bread. In terms of what's going on. My research is on children of

incarcerated parents. So for me, I started there at Howard and I really connected it to my data and expertise and said, you know, after ten years of research, the children of incarcerated parents have questions and these other questions, and I feel like we can create the next generation of social ambassadors by having them see what's going on so that they could really come up with solutions. And you shouldn't have to be incarcerated in order to see that side. You should be able to see it in

this way. The university embraced it at the time. Our current president. Um was the provost and so it was dope when he just crossed over, I said, I hummed it a lot. I was just excited, you know, at that that feat. I knew that there were going to be legal ramifications. I knew that there were going to be issues. But for me, Um going down to DC from Jersey New York area was like, I gotta do this at at HBCU, And so I went to Howards

specifically for this. You actually, you don't just take them to the prison living the prison that I yes, seven days of course for regular and they lived in the facility for seven days with other uh, the facility was running regular. This facility was where Mantha Stewart was incarcerated. They call a cupcake prison. So let's contextualize, right, like let's contextualize beautiful mountains, you know, not right right, they're

not letting you go into the city. But for me, what I wanted the students to see is that the prison industrial complex does not live everywhere. And so when you think about white collar criminals, you could go and sleep at the facility. You can have a sleepover, you know what I mean. Like that's a different concept than the students. You know, they gave me pushback. They like, Doc, we try to go to the hood, you know, and I was just like, we know that, Let's see some

things that we don't know. Let's see where they have a firefighter program right where if there are not enough individuals in the community to put out a fire, the individuals that are incarcerated to get suited and booted and they go out and they do the work of the community. But when you talk about individuals that are black and brown and disenfranchise, you stuck in yourself. You're not making that sort of thing. They may not even be programming.

So it really opened the eyes for the students and I wanted them to see the climax between the data. You know, I had them reading for fifteen weeks about the curriculums and what was going on, and when they went it was the opposite. The data says that these children are nothing. They're gonna amount to the mistake that their parents made. And they saw a phenomenal youth, beautiful young you know, invigorated individuals that was like, Yo, I'm going to HBCU, like I'm about to get a PhD.

I ain't know. There were majors where I could talk about my own mother and my life experience. So for me, I think it was able to wake the students up for them to see. We stayed seven days, We went in and out of the facility. The best part for me was where the incarcerated women had an opportunity to sleep next to their babies for the first time. So I created it where the Howard students asb you know,

alternative spring break. It's an HBCU thing. They got to decorate the visiting hall and they got to see what it was like for parents to parent during prison. That doesn't happen right like cal Mellon visits, but we all know that ain't parenting right. So like it really woke the students up. And that was really my first chance at radical pedagogy of just pushing the envelope, like let me see how far rock could you know take it? And then I really wanted to see what was going

to happen with the students. And now seven years later, they're in phenomenal positions, like they are movers and shakers. It has changed their life in ways that like that was the dream come true. So so what are you? What were you hoping that they learned from I wanted them to learn that we are all human and that I don't care if you pay forty thousand dollars one hundred thousand dollars for a degree, you're not an expert in an experience that you haven't touched and felt. The fact, right,

that's a fact. We got more with doctor Baha Muhammad when we come back, So 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, but still kicking it with doctor Muhammad. Charlomagne. I know that you chose to implement State of Emergency to Mika Mallory's book as a as required reading for your social justice course. Why

why that book? You know, when I think about the movement now, when I think about all of the students, there was a cry for an answer and a lot of the students, you know, we're looking at historical pieces, looking at a movement in retrospect. State of Emergency is now,

what's happening now? Like it's real, It's contemporary. It's right, you know, it's it's a contemporary social justice movement and I also wanted them to understand that knowledge is everywhere and you don't have to have an acronym behind your name in order to be respected and understood. And State of Emergency did that. I wanted to have a book in the class that I teach in the community. So you have formally incarcerated, currently incarcerated, detain you've senior citizens,

veterans of a variety of individuals taking the class. I wanted to have something that could bring us all together in that book. It did that. That's Jamika Mallory's book of y'all don't know that? Do you think State of Emergency Emergency should be required for like all social justice curriculum? Absolutely? Are you kidding me? The conversation was live, like I mean the students. First of all, we started off just talking about the beginning, you know, the conversation CARDI b

Angela game. It's like you gotta stop like it. I just got excited because like where would you see that? Like when would you? And the good thing about it was the students was holding that in the entire time like that would have never been a conversation that I could have ever had in my class, even if I played a clip of music, right, like, how would I have ever merged those two? That intersectionality would have never happened.

So to start with that was wonderful, and I think a lot of the students started to think, like, wow, you can be beautiful and on the front lines. You could be super dope and dressed in these sort of ways. One of my students said, you know, when I got into the movement, I thought that I had to leave my ghetto behind. And once she read the book, she says she learned that you bring all that you have because the people need everything and they need to see

all type of people. So there was strategy in the book. I think a lot of the students also talked about love and commitment. So I could see this in a sociology and criminology. I could see it in the humanistic social sciences. I could see it in an art and activism, you know class. I could see it across the band because it gives individuals a starting space. And the language that's used is just real, like it's raw, it's real, and the way you're able to dig in it almost

reads like a it almost reads like a soundtrack. Wow, yeah, yeah, that's interesting. I mean, that blows my mind because that's more important than any like list or anything. The fact that state of emergency is a part of a curriculum at an HBCU. You know what I mean, Like, that's what books are about to me. Now you're doing Social Justice Week Howard University. Social Justice Week all gets second through the sixth. What is that? Where launch? Oh man?

We are working on a huge initiative August second to the sixth, a full week, a full week of bringing HBCUs across the nation, communities of individuals together to talk about strategies and the injustices in the system. And so we have you know, a lineup day one where we're going to be talking about police and perceptions. We're going to go into corrections and mass incarceration. We are going to move into the injustices as it relates to homicides

and you know, death buy incarceration. We're gonna hear from mothers of the movement. We have a son of Howard HBCU grad, the Mayor ros Baraka coming to bless us about refunding the people. Like what does that look like? So we have all of these heavy hitters. Of course, the Queen Tamika Mallory talking about the book until Freedom.

So we have a huge just lineup of individuals that are you know, being able to say how we university is here right like we're not playing and we want everybody right like we want all HBCUs, we want all students, we want all hands on deck. We have to look at this seriously. We are in a state of emergency, like that's facts. How can people get more information on it? Website www dot Howard dot edu, Black Backslash Social Justice Consortium,

also on Instagram. Doctor Muhammad underscore experience. I'm posting all week. I have everything just kind of lined up. It's gonna be a lot. They could google it and say Howard University Social Justice Week, It'll pop up. Registration is live now, it is free. We want everyone. There's no maximum. You don't have to be anybody. You can be whomever right, interested or not in the movement and sign up and

Yes, and then a couple of months, then a couple of weeks later, then you could go to home coming, but right, right, right, do that first. This is the prerequisite, prerequisite to home coming. Thank you for that. All right, it's the Breakfast Club. Good morning, the Breakfast Club. This is the rumor report

with angela year. All right, but now it's Cassidy versus Tory Lanes. So Cassidy has some issues with Tory Lanes stealing his flow. Now. He put up an Instagram video where he compared Tory Lanes's lyrics with his own, and he said that Tory Lane stole his flow in this instance and back in twenty seventeen when he wrapped over the Nis and the Braves, hearts Uchi Wali beat, I click it fast and bring your chips, bring through your chicken, the whip that I just click. Fans some bang your jazz.

You're not in change. I got Kane for the quick cash. A lot of them saying ain't hot, but they not in the place, and you're block it ain't hot minute safety next they can Tory ain't sued to get shot in his face. I got more change than you got in my couch and the next cast screen my name boh mouth. But didn't Tori say Cassidy was like his favorite rapper, and yeah said, you're one of my favorite rappers. Cast what's the problem. I guess this is what happens

when you try to pay hommage. The first freestyle I strattage your name out because you did inspire me. The second one, I went on your beat. It's just sad how you old e wres being mad at the young and words for national and love. When we do, we get responses like this. Well, Cassidy did not feel the same, and here's what he had to say in the freestyle. This tract called perjury. You can't pay homage fighting off the nicking too dog. You bited off way too much. You.

I'm getting sick of your vot You know, I hope you bronk a gun because my youngest son biggest You is difficult to win when nobody talks slick as you, when nave repermissible, that can't think quick is you, So they think of ways to try steal this from you without giving credits, but then give permissible. You'd be stealing from Mumpa's kicking too and all my old tracts. I mean, Cassidy's entitled to feel anyway that he wants to feel. But I mean, isn't isn't just the way artists have

always paid homage. That's how Hole always paid homage the big you know. But but you know, people said Hold was biting too, So I don't know. Maybe Cassidy got a point. I don't. I don't know. I wish everybody well. Yeah, Cassidy had said during a recent interview with Hip Hop

and Uncensored. He said, I felt disrespected that they feel like just because he's an artist with some songs out that him rapping to my beat, like I should feel privileged, like I should feel like he's doing something for me, like I should feel grateful. F out of here, he said, and where it's been rapping to my beats. I've been doing this this way before you came around. I don't give an f about you rapping to my beat paying

homage for real. You know what's interesting? This is kind of like what Young Blue was upset about too, Right. He just wanted Tory to give him credit. So I guess if you're gonna do that, you just gotta give him. Give Cassidy more credit. Did he even shouted him out? Oh yeah during the freestyle. Yeah, I don't know, man, I don't know. All right, it looks like Nellie and his longtime girlfriend Chantel Jackson had broken up. Now, somebody posted on her page, are you and Nellie still together?

I love seeing you guys together, and she said no, we're not just friends. And they've been together for over six years and they haven't posted each other on social media since January. People really pay attention to these things. So yeah, and the Baby has been dropped from Lalla Paluza's lineup. You know. It was over the weekend and right beforehand, a few hours before he was supposed to

be on that stage. They did drop him. They said Lalla Paluze was founded on diversity, inclusivity, respect and love. But that in mind. The Baby will no longer be performing at Grand Park tonight. Young Thugs performance will now take place at nine pm on the bud Light Solter stage, and Gee Herbo were performing at four pm on the

T Mobile stage now. In response, the Baby posted this clip of Damon Dash fearlessness to be first, you know, to not move with a crowd, to move along, you know, and you get scrutinized by people that do move with a crowd because they got to make you look bad to make themselves look good, and so a part of

the game, you know. I see an interesting conversation starting about how these festivals and corporations don't sever time with rappers when they talk about you know, killing people, coaches celebrating the drug, coach of violence against women, disrespected women. But you know, this is what they draw the line. So it's clearly okay for us to degrade each other, but not anyone else. And I wonder whose job it

is to change that? If these companies and festivals drew the line against us and stopped allowing artists who do that to perform with the artists change their content. I just I just wonder, Yeah, but who who? Who does that? Like? How do they decide which one is okay and which one's not? That doesn't that doesn't seem correct? Yeah, that's just me. A lot of it has to do with sponsors and advertisers too. But that's why I said, I wonder whose job it is to change that? Right? Because

right should be right and wrong should be wrong. So I just you know, I wonder, you know, you know, if they stopped allowing artists who who who do those things we just mentioned to perform with the artists change their content. I just wonder well, on the positive side of things, congratulations to the baby and Danny lay As you know. I guess we all knew she was pregnant with his baby, but she confirmed it. She posted a pregnant picture herself and put hashtag biggest, as did he.

So congrats to the two of them. How did that confirm it? No, I don't know. I'm school me. I don't know how the biggest and he posted it also, Oh, he posted a picture. No, the hashtag, yes, the hashtag the biggest. That is all he's ad to say. They the biggest, biggest. Yeah. Rick Ross says that all the time. It could be a lot of those two because they all say the biggest. Guys, she's pregnant by the baby. You show it after baby's baby, I mean, the biggest.

They were dating and then I don't know if they still are or not, but she's pregnant now, and so I feel like everybody kind of knew she was pregnant by the baby. Unless is this the first time y'all hearing now I've never heard. I mean, I don't know, I don't be paying before you didn't know they were dating, all right, And lamar Odom has to pay three hundred and eighty thousand dollars in child support after a judge rule that he hasn't paid a cent of support in

over a year. So in all that is ninety one thousand and outstanding child support eighty eight thousand and mister rent one hundred and six. He went thousand for the college funds and expenses and nearly forty thousand for her legal fees and expenses. So he also didn't show up for a key hearing in the case even though they gave him notice as well. But he will be fighting fifty three year old Riddick Bow in a celebrity boxing match, so that's going to be happening. Also, why are doing that? Man?

Need the money? Man, Yeah, but that's gonna be happening October. Second. Don't think they don't have a union for boxes. I don't think he's a boxer. Did you see the video riding Bold then when he was looking for somebody to fight like Ridck Bol didn't look like he was in no fighting condition. Man, you think that lamar Odom is gonna beat him? Yes? You go look at the video or ridding Bowl and you tell me all right. And Terry Kennedy, you guys know famous skateboarder Terry Kennedy. He's

facing homicide charges potentially now. He allegedly attacked a man in an Illinois motel. That man is Josiah Costahuna is also a skateboarder, and apparently he has now died from the those injuries. According to a police spokesperson, Terry Kennedy told the cops, I will kill one of you. Police. We kill police where I'm from. They're not sure what prompted this alleged motel attack, but based on social media, it appears at one point the two of them were friends. Yeah,

so very un you know, unfortunate situation. Will keep you guys updated on what's happening with that. Remember he had the Fly Society clothing line and music brand also yep, and he was on Rob Deardek Show, The Fantasy Factory and all of that. All right, well that is your rumor reports.
