In the morning. You I'm talking about you experience a morning showing like what you guys are doing right now. It's the hump culture. Breakfast Club is my morning sit. I need it and I love it. Something. I feel like you're really not popping until you do the breakfast Club. I've been waiting come to y'all show man. I know you gotta be a big time celebrity to be up in here. You gotta be you gotta be big time. Ali and Charlotta Agnet the guy the breakfast club, bitch
you Good morning, Usa, look uh good morning. No no, no, no, no, no, no, no, good morning, Angela. What's up? N It's what's to day? What's yes, guess what day it is? Guess what day it is. That's right, it's Wednesday. It's hump Day. Good mornay morning. How are you feeling easy, man, I'm not gonna lie. It's a little out of it. Yesterday that was just exhausted, just exhausted. But I did go to the New York Public Library. Did you know? But this was so dope. They have a teen center, right and
in that teen center they had now have a recording studio. Yes, and so you have to take classes to get certified. Obviously it's only for teens, not for adults. And they have everything in there. They got pro tools, they have logic, they have mics, they have a whole um, they have a room with drums, everything. So they teach you how to actually produce, engineer, make music. You could do a
podcast from out of there. It's really amazing. Then they have video editing and they have classes that can actually teach you how to do all of this. I was like, man, if we would have had things like this growing up. I thought it was so exciting because when you think of the library, you don't know all the resources that they have available. But I did take some video and everything is brand new, So I was like, people need to know about this more. Absolutely they can go in
there and use it. But yeah, it was it was really fly. Now that's dope. You can go to the library, could get your books, you could do podcast, you can learn about recording. That's that's really dope. And let me shout out to everybody out there that has a newborn baby, that is Uh, it's tough, too tough to sleep all right, So yesterday Gear I had to go out last night with her friends. So I had, you know, I'm on daddy duty, baby duty, and the baby is rolling over.
So I'm scared to go to sleep because I'm scared the baby's gonna roll over and then and then suffocate herself. So I just I didn't have no good sleep. So last night, all night, all them new was just staring at her, just to make sure she didn't roll over. Shedin't roll over. One time she didn't move, she would sleep. She had the best sleep of her life, but not daddy. So I had a long night last night. And also, let me ask you, so since I was a kid, I don't know, maybe many of you are the same.
When you had spare change, you always put it in a bowl or a big bucket, or we always had those big what's the big water jugs? We always had like a big water jug and you put all the coins in there. And I have a one that's full of coins. But where do I? Where do I? You could take it to the bank and they put it in the change counter and the bank doesn't have it anymore. I went to like three banks. No, they told me I had to roll them up myself. Well, get to work.
There's nowhere got twelve kids at home. They can help out. There's no where to put all the change anymore. Like you have all those kids at home, they can sit there and help me roll them up. Goodness great, because usually you go to the bank, you dump it into the bank, and then you get your money and make it depositive. But that they have to have that somewhere. My TD bank doesn't have it anymore. Bank of America doesn't have it anymore. I actually have a huge bank
doesn't have it anything. I have a huge piggy bank in my house. It's humongous. So goodness gracious, there's no way for me to do it. All right, Well, it looks like you just have a bunch of change for no reason. No, I got to figure it out, or like you said, I'm gonna get my kids put it in your bitcoin account. Did you look at how much your bitcoin has improved in one day? No? I have not. I do. I have to check that out. All right, Well, let's get the show cracking front page news. What we're
talking about. Well, Joe Biden had his State of the Union address last night, and we'll give you some of those highlights. All right, Charlemagne, I'll be joining us in a second. He's not late, ladies and gentlemen, he's just having some difficulties connecting. So we'll get him connected in the It's the breakfast Club. Good morning, baby, baby morning. Everybody is dj mvy Angela yee, Charlomagne the guy. We are the breakfast Club, ad a goals. Let's get in
some front page news where we're starting easy. Well. Biden State of the Union address happened last night, and of course he started off talking about the war in Ukraine. That was a major focus of his first Day of the Union address. So one of the things that he talked about was the money that we are giving to support Ukraine. We're providing support to the Ukrainians and their
fight for freedom, military assistance, economic assistance, humanitarian assistance. We're giving more than a billion dollars a direct assistant Ukraine, and we'll continue to aid Ukrainian people as they defend their country and help ease their suffering. Nobody trying to put food on they're plate here in America or you know that can't even fill up the gas thing because the high gas prices. Wants to hear that, by the way, No, not at all. You're gonna give a billion to another
nation where people here are starving. Gas prices are shooting up, people can't afford to have pay rent, to pay car notes, to pay school loans. But you just say, oh, We're give them a billion dollars. That just sounds. You gotta beg You gotta beg for build back better, which is something that I actually helped the America people well. He said.
The US plans to release thirty million barrels of oil from the Strategic Petroleum Reserve as part of a global effort to protect consumers and businesses from rising fuel prices. As the US and allies are targeting Russia's economy. Here's what he said also about cutting off supplies from Russia.
We're cutting off Russia's largest bank to an international financial system, preventing Russia's central bank from defending the Russian rubin rubal, making prudent six hundred and thirty billion dollar war fund worthless. We're choking Russia's access, Russia's access to technology. There will sap its economics, trength, and weaken its military for years
to come. We're joining with European allies defined and sees their yachts their luxury apartments, that we will join our allies in closing off American airspace to all Russian flights. Further right, setting Russia. There has no idea what's coming. I mean, I really looked at electric calls yesterday because they're saying gas prices gonna get to six dollars a gallon, possibly could be if this continues on and at six dollars a gallon, just think about it, everything will have
to go up in prices. Transportation. You take the bus is going to go up in prices. You take a plane, it's going to go up in prices. Everything. Inflation is already the highest has been in forty years, and it's gonna keep going. But people aren't making more money. So how six dollars a gallon? Now you're also talking talked about lowering costs and not your wages. He says that means to make more cars and semiconductors in America, to
make things in the United States. And also he talked about the build Back Better agenda, and so now he's calling it building a better America instead. And it's a lot of the same policy proposals, like cutting the cost of prescription drugs, energy bills, childcare, addressing affordable housing and providing universal pre K, and also long term inflation and also committee that no one making under four hundred thousand dollars a year would pay any additional taxes. So it's
kind of the same thing. He just changed the name of it now. He also talked about funding the police instead of defunding the police. Let's not abandon our streets or choose between safety and equal justice. Let's come together and protect our communities, restore trust, and whole law enforcement accountable. That's why the Justice Department has required body cameras, band choke calls, and restricted no knocks warrants first officers. We should all agree the answer is not to defund the police,
is to fund the police resources and training. The need to protect our communities. I asked Democrats and Republicans alife to pass my budget and keep our neighborhood safe now. Congresswoman Cory Bush tweeted out, with all due respect, mister President, you didn't mention saving black lives at once in this speech. All that country has done is given more funding the police. The result twenty twenty one set a record for fatal
police shootings. Defund the police invest in our communities. Yeah, it's a damn shame that Democrats suck so bad at messaging that they got to resort to saying fund the police because they can't properly explain what defunding the police is. Let they let conservatives co op the phrase to fund the police and make it something that it's not, and they don't even know how to properly explain it, so
they have to resort to saying fund the police. And remember in twenty twenty when like every Democrat running for office was talking about police reform. Remember that that's the thing in the past. What happened to the George Floyd
Police Act. Now, Joe Biden also talked about voting being under assault, your right to vote, and he's asking Senate to pass a package of voting right bills, and he airs them to pass the Freedom to Vote Act, that John Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act, and the Disclosed Acts so Americans can know who is funding our elections. All right, we'll have more for you in the next hour. And that is your front page news. You think they're having an applause light there, No, because they was off QAU.
It was almost like they're playing musical chairs right before they sat down. They have to stand right back, right back. But one of it's like they just he say SOMETHINGE person stopped that they all get up. They might as well just do to chat your slide everybody, five, all right, get it off your chests. Eight hundred and five eight five one on five one. If you're upset, you need to vent. Something's bothering you, call us up right now.
It's the breakfast club. Come morning, the breakfast club. Wake up, wake up, wake ya. You're trying to get it off your chest? Man or blast. We want to hear from you on a breakfast club. Hello. Who's this yo? It drives me crazy when people say nonsense like we got billions of dollars to give the Ukraine, but we don't have money to give people here. This is small minded, stupid thinking. Bro. We think about this a matchin. You live in the hook, right and you're a multi millionaire.
Nobody else has power. It's freezing outside. You gotta generators. You gotta walk in freezing with a whole bunch of food. What you think the goal's gonna do? They coming to get your food? Bro, that's a small mind to think of, we help weaker country so they don't come here to get what we got because we got extra. So I don't understand your logic because you just said that the people in the hood who can't afford food is gonna come get what we got too. So why wouldn't you
just take care of home first? Bro, That's not what I said. I said, Imagine you're the only one in the hood. If nobody else has power, but you have a generator. Nobody else have food, but you have a walk in freezer full of food. What do you think the goon's gonna do. They're gonna come get you, and you just say they're gonna come get you. But then you just say that's what weaker countries would do to us too if we don't provide for them. So your logic makes no sense. Justly what I say, But that
makes sense to you. I think about it is what happens in the middle Eague. They come out after us because we're the rich Americans and they live completely poor and in squalid Right. What happens in the middle of New Jersey when you don't take care of your people? What are you talking about? What happens in Brooklyn. What happens in Jersey, What happens what happens in these rural areas south? He can't eat? What are you talking about? Why don't you guys understand what I'm saying. Here's what
I'm saying. The reason that you, as the big must tie billion there as help weaker countries is because if we don't, eventually don't, starving people are gonna come to wear the money. What do you think people are doing here in America that are starving? Bro You know? I do. I do know that if we don't help Ukraine, they Russia will defeat them and a lot of people will die. And I do feel like a lot of countries are coming together, a lot of people come together to help.
We don't ignore people who need our help. No, what do you think is gonna happen if we don't help America? We have to do Why can't we do both? And that we don't don't That's the whole thing. We find money to help all these other nations. We find money to send ammunition and guns, We find money for everything else. But what they're saying is you find money for everybody else,
but when it comes to home, we don't have no money. Yo. Joe Biden last night gave a bunch of hope to America and he basically got a beg for build back better, and he told America what he plans to do for them. But then what do you think a person who hears that? But then here's but we're giving all of this money to another country, no, no voting for it. Don't got
to convince nobody know nothing. How do you think that makes somebody here feel that's not doing We have to think globally though, But and I also so you think we should just not send money to Ukraine and only spend it here. As Angelie, a person that is poor right now in an inner city cannot think globally because he doesn't even know how he or she don't know
how they're gonna eat tonight. I mean, I think as a human being in a humanitarian when you see people getting killed, innocent people, you want to do what you can. The country should help. Hello, who's this? Alexis? Alexis good morn to get it off your chests? So good morning. Then I just had some comments on being in the military and just Biden's seats. So first, all civilian for ends, as we call them. We don't like when y'all keeps asking us, are we growing the wards? Like what's about
to happen? Even if we was, we can't tell, y'all, but like just listing, y'all and second of all, Biden speets. So I feel like people are gonna complain either way. They're gonna complain if we don't help Ukraine. If we do help Ukraine, y'all gonna complain, like it's just gonna never end at this point. But I feel like us helping them would actually be a good thing. And fernato, but that's all. But thank you for your service, absolutely, thank you, thank you. Hello. Who's this? Hey, y'all? What
everyf hey bill listen. I'm just calling to Chell this to give an early morning reminder that whoever did a P P P loan y'all going to jail, y'all. Did you see you see they starting a new task for us just for people who got pp fees. Yeah a loan illegally. Yeah. A lot of corporations and a lot of people got money illegally and it didn't go to the people who really needed it for their businesses. So I don't want to make sure the people who walk
they're scared right now because they're going to jail. There, you're going to jail. And we tried to tell them. Damnit. Man tried to warn them two years ago. I saw that scams. Get it off your chess eight hundred five eight five one on five one. If you need to vent hit us up. Now. It's the breakfast club. Good morning, the breakfast. This is your time to get it off
your chests, whether you're man or blast so plea. But at the same dry we want to hear from you on the breakfast last Hello, this is portion the poor sugar morning. Good morning, Good morning, Charlomagne. Um So I wanted to call him back reeling well, so excuse my um and I wanted to call to talk about to defund the police things. I think, Charlomagne, that you're right when you say that. Um the messaging that Democrats have put behind defund the police is bad. But the answer
is not explaining what it means. The word defund literally means to prevent from recusing funds. So people logical, realistic black people like myself who aren't out here committing crimes and not robbing people and whatnot. We hear that, and we don't want the police to not receive funds because we actually are gonna be the ones calling the police and someone tries to rob us and things like that, or if something illegal is happening in our communities, So
we don't want to get rid of the police. That's kind of what that sounds like. So whoever created that that slogan did a poor job at wording it. And words matter. So instead of avoid getting behind defund the police, we need a whole new a whole new slogan and a whole new plan. And the thing I wouldn't even get into slogans. I would just I would just say what it is that we need. We need to take, you know, some resources from over here and put the
resources over there. I would just explain it. But people, and for marketing, I'm in marketing and whatnot. For marketing purposes, you need some type of slogan behind it. So maybe like we form the police, or um we trained the police, I don't know that, but it needs to be something that specifically describes what you're trying to do. Because if you're out here and you're a law abiding citizen and
you're black. You don't look at that and be like, wait, I'm not you behind that, you know what I mean? I wonder why why it has to be an either or. And the reason I say that is is, you know, people say to fund the police, so we e can put money into different programs, right, but if you have it. But if you have billions of dollars to send overseas,
that means you have money for these programs. If you have all this money for all these PPP loans that you pull out your ass, that means we have these money to help this community, to help different communities and help different programs. So I don't understand why it has to be either or. When we need the money, we find the money, you know what I mean. But that's that's what I've always been confused about. We find the money for every little thing. There's a problem, Okay, we help.
We bail the airlines out. There's a problem, We helpe this, there's a problem. We hope that when it comes to it, it comes to what's going on in our own backyard. When it comes to people's everyday needs, we don't ever have it. Hello, who's this all right? This is hell? Hey, hope come on and get it off your chests. So I want to know my soon you'll be ex husband is Jamaican. I have a two year old sign that's
mixed with him. I want to know what aspect in life where everyone and keeps saying, um, we need to fix this with the whole umfe the racial day. I want to know where I need to come off in my life right now because I got him and his mama calling my son a by racial baby, a white cracker. I'm sleeping with my son and he'd be better off without white blood in him. Now I'm telling him Myrtle Beach, South Carolina. Hey, Charlomagne, so you heard you didn't hear
nothing else? I love Myrtle Beach. I mean, what what aspect of my life now that I got a mix child, do I have to go and have him growing up with a grandmother and a father that are Jamaican. Tell him my son before he was born, now he's a by racial white cracker. Now what in my aspect? What
should I do with my son? I mean, truthfully, if you don't like the messaging that you know his grandparents is putting them putting in his head, you gotta tell him that, why can't you set your boundaries and let him not to stop talking to your son like that? I haven't. His tell goes on, Well, then guess what they might not be able to see their grands Yeah, I would be like, well, until you learn how to speak properly to my child, you can't see him. Yep. Well,
thank you for calling mama, and good luck. Get it off your chest. Eight hundred five A five one on five one. Now we got rumors on the way. Yes, and it's fifty cent really leaving Stars. Will tell you what he had to say about the network. All right, we'll get into that next. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning, the Breakfast Club Morning. Everybody is DJ Envy Angela Yee, Charlomagne the guy. We are the Breakfast Club. Let's get to the rumors to talk fifty This is the rumor
report with angela year. All right, Well, fifty cent is upset with Stars and he said he's leaving the network. He said, this is me packing my stuff. Stars sucks, My deal is up over here him out. They renewed High Town and Force is the highest rated show they have. It's sitting in limbo. If I told you how much dumb ish I deal with over here. And then he did some more posts and he called for the head of development for g UNIT Film and Television to get
ready and start packing their bags. All I see when I see posts like that is boundaries. I love the way fifty cent talks to Stars because he is a moneymaker over there. He is a rating bringer. So when they don't do things the way he wants them to do it, yes, he's such as boundaries. Now, he did sign a four year overall deal with Stars in twenty eighteen. They said it was worth as much as one hundred and fifty million dollars. So now it's the final year
of his contract and we'll see what happens. But in the meantime, on Stars Pee Valley, they have announced that season two is coming, And I saw when a fifty rode that people were like, uh wait, hold on pe Valleys coming back because people love that show also, So no date was specified in the teaser that they put up from the cast, but it is coming back. Salute to fifty. I think people really underestimate how much content fifty cent provides for Stars. Man drop on a clue box.
Fifty provides a lot of content. He wants starts back because nobody was really nobody, nobody who was watching starstalls. Yeah, you're right, all right now, Cardi B and Offset they went to one of our favorite restaurants, Brooklyn chop House, and according to page six, they left a fourteen hundred dollars tip for their three thousand dollars mill. So that's really dope. Shout to a Brooklyn shop House if you ever come to Manhattan. Brooklyn shop House is in Manhattan.
I know people think it it was in Brooklyn because it's cold. No, it's in Manhattan. It's right by the Brooklyn Bridge, Great Downpool and they're opening one in Times Squares, So if you ever make that trip here, you know it's almost done in Time Square too, All right now. Dave Chappelle has invested in a podcast company, Luminary, and it's Pilot Boy Productions. They're investing in that subscription podcast platform,
and so shout out to him. He said, I chose Luminary when he first put his podcast, The Midnight Miracle. He said, I chose Luminary because they value artists and share my vision for reimagining audio content. The Midnight Miracle in our unique format is changing the podcast experience terms if his investment were not disclosed, but his production company will have a seat on Luminary's board of directors as
part of the deal. I think it's gonna be hard for people that will you know, want to pay for podcasts on a monthly basis, when there's so many great podcasts available for free, Like it would take a whole lot of podcasts, you know, getting behind pay walls for people to start doing that. Yeah, I know his podcast is on there and it does really well. And I for my understanding, he has some really big ones coming on the way and he has some great relationships, so yeah,
but he's also exactly but there's something. He has some great relationships with people who are just as huge, so I'm sure he can make it happen, all right. And Willie Taylor has said that making the band set artists up for failure. You know, people were posting all of these controversial moments from making the band and saying it was like a boot camp. It was a terrible experience for people. And so Willie Taylor from day twenty six
posted learning experience. You gotta understand that people will do to you whatever you allow them. So don't let your passions drive you to the wrong destination. And he said, Day twenty six Danny de Kane are talented groups, but the situation in which we met was designed to fail and interesting. Yeah, so he talked about the platform, he talked about the contracts, and so just don't be too excited about something that you go for anything is basically
what he's trying to say. But I mean, majority of people will though, right, I mean, that's been the music industry for years. Like the music industry has always been predatory. It hasn't changed, not like they started giving all better deals, No they haven't. But people got to understand too that it's also an investment, you know what I mean. If Diddy put all that money in the Day twenty six and Day twenty six flot, nobody's gonna say he did.
He hears your money back. So they do these contracts to make their money back and hopefully when when you make your money back, you can renegotiate. But if you don't make the money back or you're not the super duper group, you know, as I said, folks will, folks will still sign up for record deals tomorrow knowing that right because they want to be a star. Right, But
let's get it, let's get it twisted. Nobody would know who Day twenty six is or Danny de Kane if they didn't sign that did it, if it wasn't on television, if he didn't invest that money into them, nobody would know who they were. He put those groups together, put them together. But I felt like nowadays people do have a lot more options and and so there's a lot of different ways you can go to get out there.
Back then, it wasn't like we had streaming services. Um, you know, there's a lot of things that didn't exist that exist now. So people still signing them. Yeah, and look, if you if you live someplace where the music industry is not prevalent and you don't have a team of people that can help you get known, what else can you? You know, you might feel like this is the way for me to get my name out there. Basically, if you don't want to get got, you don't have to
get got. But most people want to get got to have a good shot. And that is your report rapping all right, Front page News. Next, what we're talking about, Yes, let's talk about coronavirus, the pandemic. Yeah, what is going on? I'm not gonna lie. I what was feeling under the weather yesterday? I was just exhausted. I was like, man, I took an at home test um it was negative. I'm gonna take another one today just to make absolutely sure. Because didn't read the song when you walk into the door,
and so if you feel sick, don't come in. By the way, I mustn't say that sign has been here since Corona though that has been my heart has been said heart, I heart had that sign up way before there was a coronavirus. Well, nobody listens to it from page news next. All right, if you got it, I got it. It's the Breakfast Clug Go Morning, So Breakfast Club, your mornings will never be the same. Angela year here and the General Insurance has been saving people money for
nearly sixty years. So if you want quality insurance for let's take a closer look at the General called eight hundred General or visit the General dot com the General Auto Insurance Services, Inc. And insurance agency in Nashville, Tennessee. Some restrictions apply. Morning. Everybody's tj Envy, Angela Yee Charlomagne, the guy we are to breakfast club's getting some front page news. Well, it looks like all my baseball fans out there opening day, it looks like it's gonna be
pushed back a little bit. They couldn't agree on terms, so major League Baseball will be pushed back little bit. So hopefully they'll get back to meetings and we'll have baseball by summer. Maybe. Yeah, I think they're collective bargaining agreement expired, and so they canceled the first two series for each of the thirteen. So that's crazy, all right?
What else we got? All right? Now? Bidenstead of the Union speech was yesterday, and one thing that he addressed, besides what we discussed earlier was COVID and not having to wear a mask anymore. They shooting new mask guidelines. Under the new guidelines, most Americans and most of the country can now go mask creed and based on projections, Based on projection, more of a country will reach a point across that point across the next couple of weeks.
And thanks to the progress we've made in the past year, COVID nineteen no longer need control our lives. Now in a couple of weeks or a few weeks if Cases starts shooting up again, don't come to us and act like y'all ain't never said that though, Okay, that's what they like to do, right Well, at some point, right when is this you know gonna end another saying we're gonna have to live with this forever. But at some point we have to be back to normal in some way.
And I think Cases are down like ninety all right now, this story made me mad. Black woman said she was forced to give up her seat to two white women on a Delta flight. Yes, Kamil Henderson was on her way back to the Bay Area from Atlanta and there were two white women sitting next to her and they were complaining that they didn't have enough room. They were sitting next to her in the same row, which mean
what exactly to the back of the plane. Don't move me now, she They asked her the flat of tendants, that are you flying by yourself? And she said she is, And the person said there's a seat back there in aisle thirty four. It's an aisle seat and she was in row fifteen. So she did comply, she said, at a fair of retaliation, she said, I don't want to
make it a race thing. But instead of asking the two white women that were seated next to me to move in an attempt to accommodate them, they basically made me have to move. I just don't know why I had to move, because that was the seat that I paid for, that was my assigned seat. And she said it was humiliating walking back to the back of the plane and watch having the entire flight look at you
and asking what's going on? Now? Wait a minute, now, if there was only one seat back there, they couldn't have moved to two women back there. And they asked, say, hey, would you mind moving back there? And you say no, then she could have said no, but she didn't say no. She said yes, right, yeah, But everybody, everybody complains about room on the plane, So what was so special about this situation, So I don't I guess they were complaining that, she said, for like an hour on the flight about
not having enough room. Too bad, it's a flight. Yeah, she could have said no, I don't want to move, yeah, but in my moving maybe she you know, she said she felt intimidated and she felt like there would be some type of retaliation and so she said when she landed, she went to the customer service rep and the rep said, how are you humiliated for them to ask you to go to another seat? And so Delta did release a statement they said, we're looking into the situation to better
understand what happened. Delta has no tolerance for discrimination in any forum, and these neleegation to encounter to our deeply held values of respecting and honoring the diversity of our customers. And so Belt are usually pretty good with that. Like if they make a mistake of there's a problem or there's a situation, if they ask you to move, they usually will move you to Delta Comfort or move you and say hey, we'll give you food a drink. So
like Delta are usually good with that. That's disgusting. And since we're talking about flying. They have the first ever international TSA pre Check location outside of the United States, and that is in Nassau, Bahamas. It's a nine year old fast pass program. TSA PreCheck provides low risk travelers with an expedited screening process. They have this at more than two hundred airports across the United States. It was
never good for you to use it. It wasn't eligible for anything international, But now NASA Bahamas has the first ever international TSA PreCheck approved passengers now don't have to remove their shoes, belts, travel sized liquids, electronics, or light jackets. They have a dedicated security line that's a lot shorter usually than a regular line. I'm starting to see the pre check line just as long as a little line now, and the clear line. It's because they's just as long now.
That's because they'd be having the pre check line closed and they make everybody go through the same line. But when you get up there, they'll still honor your PreCheck and not make you take your shoes off and everything, and they usually will move faster because you don't have to take your shoes off, and you don't have to take your laptop out and all of those things. All right, well that is your front page news. All right, thank you, miss ye. Now when we come back, we have Lamar
Or Wilson. He is the founder of the Black Bitcoin Billionaire platform and he's the host of Bitcoin Tonight. All right too. We're gonna talk to him when we come back, and we're just gonna ask all types of questions about bitcoin, because I don't really know you have some Now I do have something, but I'm gonna We're gonna talk to him. I so don't move. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning, the Breakfast Club. Morning. Everybody is cej Envy, Angela Yee,
Charlemagne the guy. We are the Breakfast Club. We got a special guests in the building. We have Lamar Wilson. He's the founder of Black Bitcoin Billionaire platform. Good morning, Good morning man, Good morning. How y'all doing this morning. We're doing pretty good, doing pretty good, man. We got so many questions. I'm so glad you're here today because a lot of things have been happening, and a lot of people are nervous about cryptocurrency. There's a lot of
misinformation out there. So let's talk about you. In your background. What made you decide really to even get started investing in crypto. Yeah, so, I'm a software developer by trade. I have a finance degree, and so for me, when I found bitcoin and actually foundly read the white paper, some investor told me a VC told me about it before, and I ain't won't paying attention, and then the price went up on it and I started checking it out.
And this was like twenty twelve thirteen. Like, when I looked at it, I was like, man, I'm a software developer. If I went to the bank and said, hey, I want to write an API to be able to get my money out of the bank, they ain't gonna let me do that. But when I looked at bigcoin, it was like, I can create a wallet, which I did. I can move my money wherever I want to. Nobody
can stop me twenty four to seven. And then that made me understand the freedom that it provided and that it's an actual eight from the financial system that, especially in this country, has always oppressed us. So that's really what got me in the Bigcoin. When you first got started, what did you buy at? So I think I wound up paying it was one hundred something maybe wow, you know what I'm saying. You see, I got a step on the news like you see Odell Beckham Junior, Yeah yeah,
gallery and bitcoin is Russell yeah, Russell coin. And then you see the bitcoin dropped and then people are like, oh see, the whole thing was a scam. Now explain that. So look, it's easy to look at bitcoins price because of the volatility, But I know envy into real estate.
If somebody was standing out in front of the real estate he bought with a sign and somebody got shot three doors down, the price would drop, but you wouldn't see it because the it's not the real estate market is not as liquid, right, so you don't get to see what's going on with real estate like you do a bitcoin, and so people watch it and they don't realize, like you gotta zoom out and understand it over the
long frame. If you understand that there's only gonna ever be twenty one million bitcoin, you realize that this is a global, a globally liquid asset that everybody can own, and you really lies that only about probably two percent of the world maybe owns bitcoin. Then what happens, as you know, just like in the dope game, what happens when when there's so much so little supply, but a whole lot of demand. What happens to the price? Right,
that's what we talk about. So I think Odell Beckham and all of those people they have for re vision, they understand, like I could take my salary in this and as long as I know I have a low time preference, which means I'm willing to wait and be patient that I could continue to accumulate this thing that there'll only be twenty one million of My problem with not My problem is just why I haven't really sold into bitcoin like I did other investment is there's so
many coins out there. There's so many forms of cryptocurrency right, right, how do people get the value of those currencies? Right? At one time, I know Jim Jones was talking about he had a cryptocurrency and an ACoM we had a cryptocurrency, and then there was some other celebrities. But how do you get the value of that cryptocurrecy? Bitcoin? Thank you currency? So here's the thing, that's what I'm saying. It's perfect that you're saying that, right. You you're a really state guy.
A little bit, you might develop houses, right, a little bit. If a house could be developed on top of saying right, and the foundation is raggedy, but if you look at the house, it looks beautiful. If you don't understand real estate, you'll go bad at house and just think, oh, this is a beautiful house, right, and this is the value of it, and I think this is amazing. But when you realize that you have a solid foundation and the property and that that's going to hold the household for time.
That's what you start realizing that that's the difference in the value of it. Right, So bigcoin itself, there's properties in bigcoin that a lot of people don't understand, from the standpoint of it being decentralized, from the standpoint that it has the most security in the system, the fact that I was talking about that there's nobody that controls
the monetary supply or policy of it. So therefore that has a more solid foundation than a lot of these other currencies out there that are controlled by other people. They are centralized. Russia and Ukraine, you see what's happening. The people over in Russia and Ukraine are trying to figure out ways to get their wealth, are to be able to store their wealth and put it into something that they can get out of that country and have their wealth. They're not gonna be able to pick the
land up that they own. Their businesses might get bombed, right, all the assets of the Senate inventory might be gone. But this bitcoin is globally liquid, so they could take their bitcoin, billions of dollars worth of it, and go across the border and have it or something somewhere not against bitcoin. I just like to ask a lot of questions now. That's perfect, the same thing when I do,
really said, I like to ask a lot of questions now. Also, I feel like bitcoin is like Texas, right, okay, meaning it's the wild wild West, right. Like real estate in Texas, you can build as damned as high as you want. You can do things that you can't do in Jersey and New York. But bitcoin seems like it's no regulations and you do what you do. So what happens when the government decides to regulate it? Because right now you can do whatever you want. It's like it's like crack.
There's no you don't know what you're in there, you can't touch it, you can make money, you can pull it out. This is perfect, right, we're saying crack. This is perfect because think about this. This is what people have to understand about decentralized systems. The centralized systems are what we call anti fragile. They can't be torn down. Think about it. The war on drugs never worked. Why because every time you took one king pin off, another
king pin off off in its space. The same thing is happening right now and the financial markets what's going on in is this bigcoin is a centralized protocol that can't get shut down. The government can't shut it down. If you go look at China, if you go look at Nigeria. Right when they try to shut it down to Nigeria, the government said no more, we can't do it anymore. The price of bigcoin skyrocketed overund with thirty percent more than here because people just started going to
the street and selling it in the street. Do you think this is going to replace real money at some point? And even like credit cards, how do you see bigcoins? And it is? It is already. I'm saying it already. Is we're end up bubble. In the United States, we got the global reserve currency, so we always feel like everything's good. But do you understand like in Russia, I keep saying this because this is right now, This is
like immediate in Russia. Right now, these people are gonna have to move to something different because the rubles are nothing, which means that inflation is crazy. It's rubles keep dropping. Everything they're buying is crazy. So they got to store their purchasing power in something and so immediately they can move to another system and be able to continue to transact that it's globally liquid and that has nothing to do with their own economics in their in their individual country.
It happened in Nigeria, That's what I'm saying. In Nigeria, those people are transacting in it. In Argentina, where they've lost value in their currency four times in the last generation, those people are using it for currency. Here, we just you know, we try to figure out how to make some more dollars. It ain't very powerful for us a lot of people when it comes to bitcoin, and maybe you can help help people out, help myself out. Right,
So bitcoin right now was going for how much? I think, I don't know thirty nine, I don't watch the price. One bitcoin is one big cooin is my project. Yeah. So now let's say I go to a store and I want to buy a couch. That couch is three thousand dollars. Yeah, how do I use my one coin that's thirty two thousand to buy a couch? Do I get changed? Is there a half a bit? Bitcoin is
set up? It's called a setosi, right, So in every bitcoin as one hundred million of them, just like there's one hundred pennies and the dollars one hundred million cetosi's in every big point, and so you can continue to go down. That's why you can buy five dollars worth a bitcoin, because you can keep going down the decimals, and because it's digital, you can go even in the future, you can go farther than that, right because it's just moving the decimal place it's mad, so it makes it
very easy to continue to separate that out. And that's what's been happening, right Most people have most people get setosis, and as a matter of fact, that's part of me being on here, like I want to provide the people that are listening to this. I want to get like ten people to be sotoci. What we can setoci million. Yeah, So I'm trying to get people because the idea for us, especially for our community, is to try to encourage people to think long term and to buy a millions of
toosis is very obtainable. Right right now, the millions oftosis is about three hundred ninety bucks, So three hundred and ninety dollars you can get a millions of toshis. But imagine in the future as the satoshi's become more and more, a lot of people believe in the future once to I mean the hundreds of toshis will equal a dollar, or one setosi will equal a dollar. Right if you get to that point now in this family that put three ninety in, it could be twenty years from now.
But now they have a million dollars. Most black families don't have any money, right, problems. Most people don't know that, and that's why you should have started with that. Well you have a deal with cash app. Yeah, right, so explain how cash because there is bitcoin on cash app. I remember when they first added that and I was like, wait,
how do you do this? So cash app. Listen, when we started black bitcoin billionaires, we started doing these rooms and we realized, like clubhouse, sorry that it's about a hundred We were on a hundred and forty five thousand deep right now. We started doing these rooms and we realized that a lot of people. It was way easier for us to on board people in cash app. So you can easily like pull out your phone, go straight to cash app as a button that says bigcoin, you
click bigcoin. You can start bad five dollars a week. It's as simple, it's the easiest, Like you exactly how it works exactly. Look, he's doing it right now. I'm gonna get you some envy when we come back. We have more with Lamar Wilson. He's the founder of the Black Bitcoin Billionaire Platform. It's the Breakfast Club coming. It's DJ and Angela. Yee. Charlomagne, the guy we are the Breakfast Club was still kicking it with Lamar Wilson. He's
the founder of the Black Bitcoin Billionaire Platform. Ye. Now what about NFTs, because I actually have an NFT that we're doing. Okay, So for people who want to buy these non fungible tokens, yep, right, you have to use cryptocurrency. Now what cryptocurrency can you use right now to buy NFT. I mean, if they do it right, you should be able to do whatever currency. Okay, But Ethereum is definitely the one that everybody's going to and that's like the
biggest one. But I actually that's what I was saying, that thing I was doing with the banks. I built NFTs on top of like the Ethereum platform stuff for JP Morgan, but we initially started on biitcoin. So the NFT itself, I think, um, there's a huge misconception out here, and I think there's a marketing thing right that people are not really telling because you're not owning the actual thing. You're not owning that. No you, Yeah, they're even that.
It's like, if you know what the NFT is, and I'm glad I'm on this show because I'm not able to always tell people this NFT is literally this, it's a token I D and your identification connected. That's literally all it is. But people say that this token I D is the art, it's the music, it's the but all it is is basically a receipt that points to this thing. And most of these kind smart contracts are written where somebody can come in and change it later on.
So then do you really own the thing that you think you own. So there's a lot of education has to go around about it. That's why people get rugpooled because they're not knowing what's going on in the contract. I hear a lot of people say stuff like, lamar, but the artists can get paid over and over and over again for the same thing. That's true. But what most of these contracts, if you actually go into these smart contracts and look at them, that's not happening at
a contract level. It's happening at a platform level like an open sea. Open Sea is given them that so open Sea is collecting the money, which is no different than the record company. Now, have you purchased any no name his name? My son has won. My son has an NFT looking No, I've been seeing this. I've been seeing this scen months to the point where people of coming to me trying to get me to do an NFTE got to get me to pay for it. I find it and this is just me. It's em speaking.
I think it's a swindler. I think you swindle somebody, right, I just think it's one of those things that everybody's talking about it and making hot. Everybody wants a piece of what's hot. And then it's gonna get to the point that that that NFT that you purchased ain't gonna be worse. Different, right, that's different. Well, it's just like back in the first like these like these right first
tweet NFT. Right. Yeah, that's so for half a million dollars, make money off of them, make money, that is That's what I'm saying. It's not about making money off of it because some of the stuff is just collectible. That's the point. It's like, oh I bought it. It's a point. It's a moment in time, all right, Yeah you say it's like it's moment in time. It's connected to this address that I control. That's all you're doing, right, But
but why do I need that addrest anymore? I can see it anytime I want to see this, Google it. But they think about it. It's the it's the least piece of art. You own it, Like, if you want to sell it, you sell it to somebody, say this is a piece of I feel you one created by Angela. Ye, that couldn't maybe be worth nothing. It might be ten million dollars. What's your favorite sport? Envy? Basketball? Okay, so basketball. That's a hundred, I mean one hundred basketballs on this table,
one signed by Jordan. Which one you're gonna get if you want? Exactly? But I have it, I can hold out no, no, but it's the same thing because this is the picture of the basket. No, but have you ever seen so the basketball has come with a certificate of authenticity, correct, right, so you can show that Jordan signed it. Well digitally, it's way better because that's math. I can digitally show that whoever owned this key actually
signed it. The difference is is that you just need to know what you're buying, so that hurst tweak gonna be worth for ten years. We're talking about Twitter, where we can't predict that because somebody might come and buy it. Like we know. Here's the thing, those monkeys, the baby the board age. Ye tell me why that's that's popular? I don't know. You know me, you know why it's popular?
Why is this? Why is the shirt that has made exactly the same as a shirt at Walmart that has an alligator on somebody six celebrity warrant and it made it hot? Now, everybody, this is your industry, NBA. What happens when it ain't hot? No more? What happened to go to Marshalls or TJ Max means? But now my my NFT, I spent see at least as shirt, maybe three hundred, maybe a thousand, but I ain't paying father. What about Jordan's Listen them Jordans came out when I
was growing up, correct, like the original ones. Now they're making retro versions of the same joints and selling them for a thousand dollars. No, they're selling for two twenty. But the resellers, that's what That's what I'm saying. So why is somebody I can't think people are foods to pay a thousand unds from Payer Jordan. But that's just that. But that's what what I realized. I'm a freedom maximalist.
If you want to buy a thousand dollars Payer Jordans walking to club somebody, if you're Jordans, yeah, yetta play basket. But that's because they're gonna right, But that's you. So this is what I believe about NFTs. Remember I told you just a token connected to the identity, Yes, sir, what does that really look like? That's access, That's a ticket. That's really all it is. That's why board apes just
taken off because you're in a special club. It's no different to people paying forty thousand dollars to have a membership at a country club. So how can people join your club? So you got the clubhouse the BBBS, we just say it just the shortness, but it's black Bitcoin billionaire. You can come the clubhouse join We do a class in the morning and then we do a class in the afternoon. Uh, called the crypto virgin. Now where you can do that. You can just learn for free, like
this is what we've been doing. I ain't no pressure like I don't. It ain't recommendation that you buy biitcoin from me. It's I'm gonna educate you, give you enough information, and by the time I finish, if you buy it, you back. If you don't, it don't matter. There's no skin off my back. I just know that where the where the world is going, that's where we should be going. For me, right everybody else, it is do what you do man, Right, Well, listen, you can sign up at
Black Bitcoin Billionaire dot com slash radio. So you're gonna give one millions to tocial dollars right, No, not dollars, just some more millions of tocial to ten different people that sign up. If they come to that link, they just got to join Black Bitcoin Billionaire dot com and then they come back. You gotta have a cash op because that's how I do my distribution. Shout out to cash shop many. They have been an amazing supporter of
our club since to jump um. They saw what we was doing and noticed that it's cold blooded rights approached them, right, Yeah, let's do it. Here's what's crazy, Angela. We started a club. CEOs like Jack used to come in our crowd and our audience, and so we wound up gett a bunch of people that support us because they saw us giving.
We gave over five thousand dollars away without any supporters, like just the club itself, like people just putting money up to give people who were brand new their first bigcoin as right, So we and then what happened We noticed were using cashoft. So I went to cashop like and Zay knew, Zay knew Big Cooinsai shout out to Big Cooinsai, my dude, co founder of Black Big Cooin billionaire. He went to Jack because he knew him. And then
Jack and me and Zay talked to Jack. Jack connected us with cashop because they saw what we was actually converting and they was like, okay, this is cool. Plus you could tell they for the people you know, we're all about education. So now it is fifty dollars if you sign up with that pass cud yeah yeah, if you go to take the class, is just fifty it's fifty bucks. And here's the thing, Envy, what's your cash shop.
I know you got cashop. What's your cashop? Man, I ain't gonna see it on if just passing over here, all right, hold on look and you're gonna see something crazy on it anyway, because most people like Lamar can't believe that you have it. But I'm gonna send you. I'm gonna send you what we send to other people because you I'm paying it right now. I'm gonna play with this bigcoin thing for a little bit and see if I like it. It's coming right now. So y'all saw how easy it was. All deal was just type
it in, went to bigcoin. And the cool thing about it is you can set it up so you could do the dollar costs average in the app. So like my brother in law every week he just take money out of his check and get it, gets a little bit more bigcoin and keep stacking it. What you get, I ain't nothing. I don't see nothing of my my thing yet. Yeah, it says it's pinning. You got to accept it. Well, you know, I will say this. It's that I love. I'll see if right here. Yeah, you
gotta accept it. I will say this. I love to see people invest in explain anything and breaking things down. And I just want to appreciate you for joining us. And I wasn't hard on you because of any other reason, but I like to know you know what I mean. And I like to ask a lot of questions real estate. When it comes to real estate, I ask a zillion
one questions like a three year old kid. Because my whole thing is if I don't ask questions and I don't understand, I don't want to do it just because it's the cool thing that I've been got so many times for that and that's what I'm gonna sell to you. I mean your network now, So you got any questions at Meta? No, you ain't got no no charge envy charging Yeah, yeah, you just do some money in I just why are you telling the way you didn't do me? You get out my friend? No, I got to you.
I got you. That's what freshman. I haven't heard that during a long time. Okay, more than everybody's DJ envy angela Ye, Charlomagne the guy. We are the breakfast club. Good morning at shout out to Lamar Wilson for joining us again. Yes, did you understand more? Now? There's things that I do. I do understand things that I don't, things that don't make sense. But it's not that I'm
against it. I just have a lot of questions. When I put my money into anything, I like to really under stand because if something ever happens, I want to know why I lost the why I made money, or what I did what I did. I just don't like that. Oh it's a fat everybody's doing it, so I'm gonna do it. That is, Yeah, and that's very smart. That's exactly how you should be. And if you do decide to get into it, just just take a small risk. Anybody telling you spend all your money yeah, n well,
even with a small risk. You know, I'm very very careful with everything. I've seen a lot of people lose it all. I've seen a lot of people lose I've seen a lot of people hit big too. But I just I just that's just how I am. So when I do I just like to ask questions. Especially when you have somebody that comes up here that does it for a living, that that's what they do. They should be able to answer all your questions. And he was able to do that. So shout out to that brother.
All right, all right, all right, So rumors. Next, what we're talking about. We're gonna talk about Nicki Minaj. You know, she sat down with Joe Button and she talks about a lot of things. I saw one clip where she speaks on certain rappers chasing trends. Okay, we'll get to that next. It's the Breakfast Club. Go on it morning. Everybody is DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlomagne, the guy, we are the Breakfast Club. Let's get to the rumors. Let's talk Joe Button and Nicki Minaj. It's about Angela Ye
the Breakfast Club. All right, But Joe Button has been teasing this Nicki Minaj interview that he has coming, and yesterday he released a snippet of their discussion. And here is what that sounded like. You know, once anybody has success with anything, it seems like everybody just jumps on that sound, even if they may not have even liked it. It might be people behind them telling them to do it. Once you do that, and once you do it a couple of times, who who then are you? We've now
forgotten who you are. I don't think people realize that if you jump on it every trend, you become faceless. It's like, this is a deep point. Yeah, it's important. It's important. People notice I'll stop when she stopped telling the truth. I ain't hit no lie. She's spitting facts. I didn't hear a lie. So there's no release date yet for this interview, but I'm sure it's going to be high up there as far as views all right now.
Damon Dash recently sat down with Shannon Sharp for a club Sha Shay, and he talked about his legal issues with jay Z and why he is suing him. Hey, broh'll get out. Hey what you're talking about? Why don't listen to the paper? Why you in coordinated? If y'all straight? Because he sued me for something that he said that I did that I didn't, and then I just had to sue him because he was redirecting funds for reasonable doubt. I didn't realize it. It's just I wouldn't never sue
somebody I used to hustle with. I'm not just suing anybody I was disappointing. I think it's embarrassing. You know again, the program is when two black people used to work together and now they don't, then they gotta be beefing I'm not beefing with that man. I don't care what he's doing. I don't like the way he carried things, but you know that's on him. He went his way. I went mine. Now, you also talked about Kanye West and the interview and whether or not he thought that
Kanye would become as successful as he is. He said he never expected it in a billion years. But he did say that nothing surprises him. So you can watch that full interview. Like I said with Shannon Shop on Club Shah, that's interesting because Dame always believed in Kanye from the beginning. So I wonder, I wonder what did he see? Ye like, he believed in him, So I wonder how big did he think he could possibly get? You know? All right, now, let's talk about Delicious and
the Raymond Santana from the Central Park five. He has filed for divorce from Delicious and she is accusing him now of being unfaithful. Now, she went publicly on social media and she said, I married a narcissist who was a complete liar and a cheat, and I'm finally ready to speak my truth. Stay tuned, hashtag gloves off, And then she later on changed that caption and it said today I appeared to be by myself, but I'm not alone.
And she put up the prayer hands and she said, in God's timing, just London and so not sure what happened with the two of them, but they did get engaged back in December of twenty nineteen after first meeting through Instagram. They got married June sixth of twenty twenty, during the pandemic. And now looks like it's over all right. Drake is reportedly buying his first home in La La Proper as they call it, and he's buying this house from fellow musician Robbie Williams. They said it's an off
market deal, so it was never listed publicly. This this property, there's not a lot known about it. But what they did report in the La Times so that Drake is paying about fifty million dollars for this house. The space
is twenty thousand square feet, which is huge. I thought Drake had arouse, but they said La Proper, so but that was La Proper, like you know how you can say La but it's outside of La So this is actually for real, like you know, it could be Calabasas or something from New Jersey's New York proper because it's outside New York. New Jersey's a whole nother state. But you know how you might say I live in New York, but you live in like, you know, Long Island outside
of New York City. No, I say I live along now. Always if your address doesn't say Los Angeles, California, but people just say you live in LA, but you live near LA. That's not La proper? Do people in LA say seem crazy? Right? The people want I want to know the people in LA say LA problem. I don't know. I mean, this is just this is just like if you live in Calabasas, you don't live in LA. Right, No,
but that's Calabasha's right. But some people just be like, oh, you know I live in people just look at it. Everything I think as LA around there. So this is actually I'm gonna do that from New York. If you live in New York, nobody goes, oh, you live in Queens not live in New York. You live in Jersey. No oh, Queen's is in New York, New York City. I should say, all right, Calabash's is not La. La proper is not LA. I don't know if it is or not. I don't know. I don't know nothing about that.
LA spent fifty million. Congratulations to you all right now, Tyson Fury has revealed um on the Pat McAfee show that he masturbates quite a bit. Here's what he had to say. I put most of my success down to masturbation seven times. You got this guy, you can really pop, keep that blood pumping. Is that why you think you throw such bombs? Because what you've been accused. You've been accused having what in your gloves and stuff like that.
Right at the only thing I've been loaded this test off thrown from all the one king over there all right when he was asked what he owes his success to. That's what it is. I guess masturbating seven times a day seems very time consuming, but I guess it depends on how long it takes you. And that is your rumor report. All right, all right, chanle man, who are
you giving your down? Continue? Man? You remember the guy that called in uh during telling why you matt and he was upset with us just because we were asking a simple question in regards to you know, yes, America having money for war, but can't feed the poor called in this morning. Yep, we'll talk about it for after the hour. That guy really bothers you, Hey man, it's always it's always room for a teachable moment. Okay, all right, we'll get into the next It's the breakfast club, the morning,

We've been hearing about it our whole lives, and Tupac's summed it up in one bar. They got
money for war, but can't feed the poor. Let's listen to President Joe Biden last night from the State of the Union, talk about the financial aid he wants to provide a Ukraine. We're providing support to the Ukrainians and their fight for freedom, military assistance, economic assistance, humanitarian assistance. We're giving more than a billion dollars a direct assistant Ukraine, and we'll continue to aid Ukrainian people as they defend
their country and help each they're suffering. Now, I said this at the end of the end of the show one day this week, and I say it again now. When you hear America, and the reason I say America is because it's not just the current president in the White House, President Biden, It's been every president since I've been alive. When you hear America say things like they want to send billions of dollars. Okay, the Ukraine are any war, all right, Yet people in America are starving.
You cannot help, But ask how come they can't ever find money to give the people here in America that are in need. Nobody is saying, don't help Ukraine. But if you are one of the thirty plus million people living below the poverty rate in America, you're gonna ask what about us? All right? If you wanted to forty four point seven million people in student loan debt wondering what happened to the ten thousand dollars people in student loan that was supposed to get, you have to ask
what about us? If you wanted a hundred and seven thousand plus veterans who are homeless on any given night in America, you have to ask what about us? Now? In reference to that what about us sentiment? This brother caught up here this morning and said this, yo. It drives me crazy when people say nonsense like we got billions of dollars to give the Ukraine, but we don't have money to give people here. Imagine you live in the hood, right and you're a multi millionaire. Body else
has power. It's freezing outside. You gotta generator, you gotta walk in freezing with a whole bunch of food. What you think the goon's gonna do? They're coming to get your food, bro, they're small mind to think of. We help weaker countries so they don't come here and get what we got because we got extra. What you think the goon's gonna do. They're gonna come get you, And you just say they're gonna come get you, But then you just say, that's what weaker countries would do to
us too if we don't provide for them. So your logic makes no sense for me. What I say, Dude said, we have to help the people in Ukraine because if not, they will come over here and take what we got. But so will people over here in America who are financially challenged. So if that logic applies to Ukraine, why doesn't it apply to folks in America who are in financial need? I promise you, and I can say this
without any statistics to back it up. Americans that live here in America are more likely to be robbed by another American in need right here in America than they are by somebody coming from another country and take it what we got, all right. The seventy eighth year old woman who got robbed while praying and church in Tennessee didn't get robbed by folks from Ukraine. Bro Oh, you heard me right. Seventy h old woman was praying in church and two women approached her asking for prayers as well.
And I guess in their mind God answered, because while they were praying, a second woman went into the victim's purse and stole credit cards, gift cards in cash. Guess where the thieves tried to use the credit cards after they stole them, Sam's Club and Krogus. Okay, that's how hungry people are right now. Inflation is the highest it's been in forty years. All right. That man said we have to, you know, give money to other countries and times of war, because if not, those people will come
over and rob us. Well, the girls Scouts in Carlisle, Iowa, who was selling cookies in front of a supermarket didn't get robbed by some folks who came over here from Ukraine. Those girls Scouts were doing what they do out there with their lemon ups and their girls girls. Scott Smorse Okay then mentioned my favorite. You know, boyt me two boxes and ten men's hand him a twenty and tell him keep to change. But those young ladies were robbed
of two hundred dollars. Okay, a guy came up, acted like he was gonna buy cookies, and then he's snatched the donation box and ran two hundred dollars. You know why, because people don't need you to be rich to rob you. They just need you to have more than they got. All right, in a country with sixty one percent of the population, let's paycheck to paycheck, and millions of Americans are only four hundred dollars away from financial hardship. Don't be mad or upset. Are shocked when people see all
this money going to other countries. But right here in America, people are starving, and they start asking questions. Okay, and the words of the late grade tuopox your cord. They got money for warb can feed the poor. It's just strange to listen to them have to beg for things for American people who aren't financially healthy. We have watched the Build Back Better Plan get blocked. President Biden wants to pass a one point five to two trillion dollars
spending package that would lower costs for most Americans. Okay, of course that gets blocked. Anything that could have helped poor Americans gets blocked. But when it comes to war, other countries get blessed. Okay, I think they said six point four billion they want to send the Ukraine. I know six point four billion isn't nowhere near a couple of trillion, but you understand the point. They find the
money when they want to find the money. But the reality is America historically hasn't given a damn about poor people, and that's why poor people see this money going to other countries and ask what about us? And to the caller who was receiving donkey today, I wish he had left his name, but he just called screaming I really
need him to understand this message. I actually think that caller might have been a Russian body, because there's no way you can understand why we have to give Ukraine money but not understand why people who are in financial need in this country need bread too, and you can't be mad about them asking simply what about us? You really wondering why people are asking why we got money for warbe can't feed the poor. You know, let's go
back to the Book of two profits. Shakor Okay, He explained, what will happen if you keep neglecting your own That caller said the same thing basically, but I like the way Pox said it too. It's much better. Listen if I know in this hotel room they have food every day, and I'm knocked on the door every day to eat, and they tell and they open the door, let me see the party. Let me see like they're throwing salami all over that I mean, just like throwing food around.
But they're telling me there's no food in there. You know what I'm saying. Every day I'm standing outside trying to sing my way in. You know what I'm saying, We are hungry, Please let us in. We are hungry, Please let us After about a week, that song is gonna change that we hungry. We need some food. After two three weeks, it's like, you know, give me the
rood regging out of the door. And after year and you're just like, you know what I'm saying, I'm picking the lock, coming through the door, blasting you know what I'm saying. It's like you're hungry. You reached ther level. You don't want anymore? We asked. Ten years ago, we was asking with the panthers. We was asking with them. You know, a civil rights movement was asking. You know now that those people that were asking, they're all dead and in jail. So now what do you think we're
gonna do? Please give anyone who doesn't understand why a person in financial need in America would ask a question why they got so much money for war but can't feed the poor the biggest he hall. A matter of fact, let me Mark get him the biggest he hall he ha, he ha. You stupid motherfuck? Are you dumb? Like? How aggressive? She said? It? All right, well, thank you for that donkey of the day. Yes, indeed, Now up next ask Ye eight hundred five eight five one on five one.
If you need relationship advice, any type of advice, call Ye now. Phone line to open. It's to breakfast club. Good morning, the breakfast club, the relationship advice, need personal advice, just need real advice? Call up now for ask Ye morning. Everybody is DJ Envy, Angela, Yee, Charlomagne the guy. We are the breakfast club. It's time for ask Ye. What line you want to go to? Ye all, let's do line six Hannah, Hannah, good morning, Hi, good morning. What's
your question for yeasy? Oh my gosh, okay, so long, stretty sure. I started talking to this guy about two years ago. Um, I didn't want to be in a relationship because I was choking storing other things. Um. And basically I built like this friendship with him, and like he's almost like my best friend. Um, and like we want to be in a relationship, but he don't know how to act right and he hasn't known for the last two years. Um. And so I tried to cut him off and be done with him because I can't
go through that mental turmoil. And I started talking to a new guy, and like everything was good, but like he kind of has like some female tendencies that I don't like. They kind of make me like cringe a little bit. Okay, what do you mean by that? What
do you mean by female tendencies? So, like, sometimes he'll sing songs that are like a little bit too feminine, like things like songs that he shouldn't be singing Pressure by Ari Lennox or Big Energy by Big Blado, Like I don't feel like a man should be singing those songs like a lot of I'm gonna lie those I love. I love both those songs, but okay, female, I's a female. Yes, I love those those songs and I would sing them, but I don't think a man should be singing about
those songs. So he's really sweet, he's caring, he's thoughtful, but like there's just certain things that he does that kind of like I just can't get passed. Okay, So you're thinking maybe he's gay. I wouldn't even necessarily say he's gay. It's just certain things that he does that like I'm not okay with Okay, besides singing Um Lotto and Ari Lennox, what else? Like I said, sometimes like when I'm talking to him, I feel like I'm talking to my auntie or like my best friends, Like sorry, okay,
So maybe there's that attraction and chemistry just isn't right. Yeah, and then you know and that that's something that you can't force. Now for the first guy, what is the problems that you had with him? When you said that, it's some things you just don't want to have to go through anymore, Like he just doesn't take my feelings into consideration as much as i'd like him to um, he doesn't communicate the way I need him to do.
He knows how to communicate, but he chooses when he wants to communicate and how he wants to communicate and what he wants to communicate about. Okay, that doesn't very like selective about his communication skills. And and does he want to be in a relationship with you? He does, he hasn't he met me, But I just am not. I don't think I'm in a place where I want to be in a relationship just yet. I'm just looking for someone genuine to like build with. You know, well,
it sounds like you answered your own question. It doesn't feel like either one of these guys are the right one for you. So why do you feel pressured to pick one? Because like I don't know the first guy, like he, like I said, he's like a he became like a best friend to me, and like I've lost pretty much all my friends in the last few years just because, like you know, people grow up and people. But he's been there and he's seen me go through
a lot of different things. And I mean, but you don't owe him a relationship because of that, right, you know, I just think, Hannah, You're not having to pick one of these guys. There's a whole pool of people out there to choose from. And I feel like when you want to be with somebody, you will know it and it won't be a question. And I guess that was my questions, like should I should I pursue either one of them? Or should I just give them both up?
Because look, you're single. You can date and you can continue to do that until you make a decision that this is the person who I want to be with. But when you make that decision, let it be something that you feel in your heart, your spirit, and you know that this is what you want without question. Yeah,
I understand. And that's the reason why I'm not in a relationship in a relationship with either one of them now, because I've already told them both like I've rushed into relationships before and I don't want to do that again, Like I don't want to make the same mistakes. So yeah, there's no rush, girl, take your time. Thank you, Angela. You're welcome, Hannah. It's nothing wrong with singing lotto at all.
A matter of fact, we're gonna play lotto right now for you in your boot, and I know he's gonna be singing it right now, all right, asking eight hundred five eighty five one on five one, let's play lotto right now. Maybe he's doing it to be funny, hood b Fu and the bonnet. I'm on a pole like Onyx being funny. I'm not singing that part, Dough. It's a good song. I'm gonna keep for real. What there's some real advice with Angela gets ask ye morning. Everybody's
d j envy Angela Yee, Charlomagne the guy. We are the breakfast club that was lotto with big D energy. Hey, all right, Hello, who's this yo? Y'all? Good morning to morning. It's trade trade with up man. Hey, I just want to give y'all shout out man, listen to y'all every morning. Man, I really do love what y'all do. All right, Well,
thank you brother, thank you. Tray. What's your question? So my question is I'm in a four year going relationship and my girl is telling me that I have until our seventh year of being together to propose to her as in marriage. Okay, but we are still very young in my personal opinion, and we're embarking on new journeys, and I don't think marriage should be a concern at the moment, and I just want to make sure that I'm not stripping because I still like, I do see
myself marrying Kurt just as of right now. I think it's too soon, okay, But she said it's in three years. She wants you to propose, right one to two? Really three is a stretch. One to two okay, But y'all been together for four years. I think you know, being
with somebody six or seven years. If her goal is that she knows what she wants, she knows that she does want to get married to you, and she's given you a timeline of when that needs to happen, there's nothing wrong with her setting her expectations and whether or not you can meet them, that's on you. So okay. So, but the foundation of this relationship there's a lot of weak trust to here, and in my eyes is like, how can you sm marrying somebody if we're still having
trust issues? Well, she given you a couple of years to work on that, because she might be thinking, look if in two years we haven't worked on those issues and we're not in that place and things can change by the way. You know, she can decide in two years we still got some more work to do. But she's just letting you know, look, this is my goal and I want to work toward that, which means now
you got a lot of time to work towards that. Now, if in two years from now, you guys reassess and you're like, we need more time, or you might say this isn't really for me. I don't see us progressing, there's nothing wrong with that. And also knowing that she might step away if she feels like you're not ready and she is. You know, the thing is that people's goals aren't always aligned. But she knows what she once
right now, and you know, things always can change. Like I say, we always have this plan, like this is what I want two years from now, I expect this, and maybe she really won't, but I think, you know, all you can do is wait and see. But I don't think it's wrong of her to let you know this is what I'm working toward. Are you working toward this also? Well? I am making a valiant effort to accommodate her with her with what she wants, because what
she wants matters to me. That I feel like they're goals and things that I should have in place first before we worry about Mary, because I'm still trying to graduate college. Okay, you are really young, all right. I'll say this. If she's telling you that in two years or three years, however long she expects this, I would tell her, okay, perfect, let's not even address or discuss this for at least another year, and then we can have another conversation about it and see where we are.
I think that's a fair compromise. Okay, yeah, and that's the thing that I'm trying to do. It's compromised with her because she's embarking on nursing school and I'm an engineer at Prayer of You. Okay, yeah, So I would tell her in a year, let's revisit this conversation. Okay, Well, I really appreciate I need to hear that from a woman's recision. I don't really have anybody in my corner to have this conversation with. And at least she loves you enough to know that that's the goal. She wants
to be with you forever. Now in a year, that can change. In a year, she can say, you know what I got to finish school. You have to finish school. So let's plan it for three years from now. Who knows what can happen, but I would tell her, all right, as a compromise, let's not have this discussion about marriage for another year and then we can have a discussion. That's your woman. She should be able to discuss anything that she wants with you, and vice versa. Thank you,
I appreciate it. You're welcome tree. All right, ask you eight hundred five eight five one O five one if you need relationship advice, to any type of advice. We got rooms on the way. Yes, Wendy williams ex husband Kevin Hunter is suing for wrongful termination. Will tell you what he's seeking. All right, we'll get into that next. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning, the Breakfast Club. Warning, everybody is DJ Envy and the guy. We are to
Breakfast Club. Lets let's talk Wendy Williams. This is the rumor report with Angela Yee on the Breakfast Club. All right, Well, it looks like Wendy Williams ex husband Kevin Hunter has filed a lawsuit against the production company of her show, deb Bar Mercury for wrongful termination. Now, these documents were obtained exclusively by the Shade Room, and he said he was terminated on the basis of his marital status that is barred by the New York City Human Rights law.
He said he suffered an economic loss which will be determined by trial, in the range of seven to ten million dollars. He said, after Wendy file for divorce, he got a letter saying he was terminated, and it read, in part effective immediately, your role as executive producer of the Winnie Williams Show was terminated, and your professional relationship with debbar Mercury is also concluded. So we shall see if he's able to get any of that money between
seven and ten million dollars. He said. He's asking for not less than seven million, and for punitive damages, lost wages and commissions, and the costs and fees of the preceding including legal fees. All right, now, get ready for Rolling Loud Miami twenty twenty two. They have announced those headliners that includes Kentrick, Lamar, Kanye West, and Future is this This is tickets July twenty seconds to the twenty fourth. Tickets go on sale March seventh, So that's five days.
So do you think that means we get a Kendrick Lamar album this summer. It would make sense, It would make all the sense in the world. Right, But then he holds something last year and it was no album. Didn't hold something in Vegas, and everybody thought it was the same thing. We were going to get an album. We didn't. I thought it was I thought he was paying homage his previous work, or I could be wrong.
That's what I thought it was, all right, Well, a lot of people are on the lineup too, like Playboy, Kardie, Little Baby, Little Dirk, Don Tolliver, Baby, Keen City Girls, Little Oozy Gunna and more. So that's gonna be a huge one. Shout out to the people that roll aloud. All right now, Kanye West says he plans to expedite
his divorce from Kim Kardashian. According to reports, so they're supposed to be in court today and Kanye has now hired attorney Samantha Specter, who by the way, representing Nicole Young and her divorce with Doctor dre and So, according to an exclusive by Hollywood Unlocked, Kanye told him that he will no longer fright to keep his divorce of moving forward, and he said, I've asked my team to expedite the dissolution of my marriage to Kim so I
can put my entire attention into our beautiful children. And looks like he's got a new girlfriend too, by the way, as well. They've been posting each other. He posted a picture with her with a heart and she looks like him a lot. Yeah, and she called him my love. And the game has given them a name, Yay Nay, because her name is I guess Janey Jones. Yea Nay
is hilarious, all right. Now. In addition to all of this, the tender swindler is now facing a formal lawsuit, and that is because he was claiming, if you guys recall, he was claiming that he was heir to this diamond mogul and now that family is suing him for misrepresenting himself. They said he's been using cunningly false wordes claim claiming to be a member of that family, and that family
will pay and bear the cost of his benefits. They said that he defrauded, cheated Khan, falsified and hurt women, men and businesses on an international scale, and they do not want to be um, you know, tied to that fraud at all. He has no relation to the family, no affiliation with the company LLLD Diamonds. And they said, I'm relieved that his real identity and actions have been globally exposed and hopefully this will bring an end to
his unscrupulous actions. The lawsuit we filed today is just the first step out of many we will be taking to have him face justice and get the sentence he deserves. So who's who's who? And you know, he would tell these women that he was an heir to this you know, famous diamond mobile and they believed he was this diamond air and this was his dad. So the real family. Yes, he's suing because you can't misrepresent yourself from that way. All that all right, AMC is testing a new pricing
model with The Batman. They're going to charge slightly more for those tickets. So if you plan to go see that movie at an AMC theater, they said, currently our prices for The Batman are slightly higher. Wow, now the prices we are charging for other movies playing in the same theateries at the same time. That is why? Why not? What you mean? I mean, first of all, I would never pay for a DC movie. And it's just just me because I'm a Marvel guy. Oh, but Batman is
going to be a big event. It's gonna be a big event, like you know, that's what I said. I think theaters right now are only going to be for big event movies. Every other film is gonna come on the screaming services and on TV. But those big event movies are probably gonna be in theater, and they're probably gonna charge you more. Yeah. But because the movie is Batman and they know everybody wants to see the Batman, they're gonna charge more money to make a little extra change. Well,
they said, they already do this. I've never seen that before in European theaters, oh European games. But yeah, a movie, if a movies eight seventy five, A movies eight seventy five. People are trying to figure out how to make money the best way that they can. Exactly, those movies are gonna make movie though. Those those are the movies that make a billion dollars in the people that Dad said on seeing them, they'll pay a little extra. That's why
it is wild. But the world we live in right now ye all right, well that is your rumor report. Dam that's crazy. Well that's a jo GI for supporting DC movies.

Learn more about one of the new green NFT platform built for the music community. At one of doctors Morning, everybody is Steve and lead Charlemagne the guy. We are the Breakfast Club. Did you guys see the story about the I believe it's the New York Liberty being fined because they charted a jet.
I guess to some of the games. I didn't. I didn't understand that, Like why can't Yeah, was going to ride a private jet? Don't don't basketball teams ride private jets the games all the time? Yeah? I thought I was confused with that too. If the owner could afford it and he wants to get this players around like the NBA players get around. I didn't see the problem of it. How they said that they could get fined and possibly pull a franchise why though, Like what, what
did the money come from? An illegal means? Like? Why? Like what is the reason? I think it was a collective bargaining agreement? And so they were fine basically for treating their players too well? That is why? Is that crazy? Is that actually the reason? I don't know? I mean, I just saw the story and he didn't understand it. That's wow. So they got fined for treating their players too well. Yeah, basically, they don't let teams charter flights
for their players. The NBA does it. They don't treat the w NBA like the NBA, in case you haven't noticed, Yeah, I gotta I don't know enoughing about it. I just saw the headline. I didn't even read into the story. I just started sounded dumb when I heard it. I couldn't understand it. So they're gonna put them, They're gonna put them on. They say it was because they WNBA's collective bargaining agreement. So that means so basically all of us gotta ride. That's foul. Yes, it is, that's foul.
You put them on Southwest to get to the games, and everybody in the NBA play that's foul, man, All right. Well, when we come back, shout to all the women that play in the w NBA. I know that that a lot of times they don't treat you the same. Well, I know they don't treat you the same, you don't make the same but y'all still go out there and y'all ball, and y'all give a lot of inspiration to a lot of girls out there that want to play basketball. So well, it's very important to note too that you
have to support the business of the WNBA. The reason that they don't get treated the same it is because the league just simply doesn't make the same amount of money, like nowhere close to it. So you have to support the w NBA. You gotta go to the games, you gotta buy the merchant and dice. I promise you if the w NBA was ever they get support like the NBA, you would see things change in the w NBA financially. Yeah, But a lot of those women out there to do
it not not for the money. They do it because of the love of the game. And that inspires a lot of young girls to play basketball. Like when I got to do what I got to do with that's telling people to support them No, I'm not. I'm just saying I'm just saying salute to them. I'm not just All I'm saying is just salute to them, regardless of money or not. I'm just saying salute to them because they inspire a whole group of people, a whole group
of kids out there. So I'm just saying salute to them. Yeah, they appreciate the inspiration. They want them dollars though. Yeah, But what the reason why they're saying they're not allowed to do that is because some team owners have the finances to pay for those charter planes while others don't, so they want to keep that quote competitive balance. I
get it because think about it like this. If if I played for let's say, I don't know m Atlanta, and Atlanta afford the charter jets, but New York can. I want to go to New York because New York gonna treat me better. So I get it. I understand. I understand why they did that. Yeah makes sense, I understand why they did that. All right. When we come back, positive noticed the breakfast club, good morning morning. Everybody is DJ Envy and Ngel Yee, Charlomagne the guy. We are
