Maybe I am Latino man, and maybe you should go see like a Tyler Perry movie, and the Five Partiats is

I've never seen none of the movies you named except Raw of course, ever seen any Robert Townson films. I've seen it like a part of Media Man, and like a part of The Five Heartbeaks. A shame. But you seeing La bambo. I did see La La La La La La Labama. Maybe I ain't I ain't you know what I'm saying, you're all in tune with your

Yesterday was a really great one. We're getting ready for the holidays, people are overspending, people are concerned about debt. So shout out to our guy Sean from Financially Clean. He does a free weekly course on how you can actually get

out of debt and get financially cleaning. He used to work on Wall Street, so now he does this for free for the community. And Dione who was there as well, Yeah, I already overspent for the holidays, already passed that one. I don't even look damn it. Man. All right, well let's get the show. Cracking front page is what we're talking about. We are going to be talking about the deadliest drug in America. What do you think that drug is? Social media? We'll get into that when we come back.

Keep a lot, just a breakfast club. Good morning, Good morning everybody in dj mvy Angela Yee, Charlomane, the guy we are to breakfast club. Let's getting some front page news now in terms of that football to night, the Chargers take on the Kansas City Chiefs. Now, what else are we talking about? Ye? Well, Donald Trump's former lawyer has been sentenced to three years in prison after he said that he felt it was his duty to cover up Donald Trump's dirty deeds. That's why he did what

he did and lie. This is all about a hush money scandal. And he actually admitted that they got some money to pay off two women, a former adult film well, she's a current adult film star and a former playboy model before the election in twenty sixteen. The only thing is the prison they're recommending that he goes to, is what they are saying, is one of the ten cushiest prisons in America. It's a federal prison. Most federal prisons

are kind of cushy, especially guys like that. They're not gonna set a guy like that through wherever they got the Kashy six nine at Now everybody was posting this tweet that Michael Cohen directed toward Hillary Clinton back in twenty fifteen. When you go to prison for defrauding America and perjury, your room and board would be free. Ironically enough, now that's him. That's gonna be very interesting to watch.

This is gonna be better than any reality show, any show you've ever seen about the White House, whether it's Scandal, House of Cards, this is gonna be better than all of that because it's gonna be so many layers peeled back, and so many people that's gonna be getting sent to jail all until they get to their final destination, which she's our celebrity and he's not going Donald Trump. Okay, you sit there and speaking of jail, the governor of Tennessee,

Bill Haslam, is considering actually clemency for Cintailia Brown. We've been talking about her. She was a sex trafficking victim. She was sentenced to life in prison. Back when she was sixteen years old. She killed the forty three year old man, she says, who solicited her for sex. She thought that he was reaching for a gun after she resisted his advances, and that's when she took a gun out of her own purse and shot and killed him. So now they are saying that he may possibly review

her case and grant some clemency. We will be the clemency though, they're gonna let her go. They gonna cut her sentage, so we'll pardon. The clemon is two different things, right, yeah, because pardon means that they dropping your charges and letting you free. Clearly they did some leniency, so she might not have to wait until she's fifty one. Well, they're still reviewing the case, so they haven't said exactly what

it will be. So once they review it, then they'll let us know if there'll be any clemency at all. All right, all right, and Fantinel by the way, it's the deadliest dragon America. Which is an opioid. Last year it was heroin, so this year it was fentanyl. They're saying those numbers have opioid. So you know, we said we have an opioa crisis here, Yes, and fenconel is now seriously, we do have a crisis. Is it a pill or drink of I think it's a pill, isn't it?

Uh Listen, I've never used it, so I don't know how the different ways. But yeah, when are you all fenting all addicts? Call up here and tell me what that high be about. You know what I'm saying. Tell me how you just that Fentonel I just want to know. I don't want to do it. I just want to know what is it. I don't want to overdose over that, all right, a lot of his front page news.

So, first of all, I'm blood, so I gift. I was calling because of the front page. Dude, I wanted to tell you that hero and fed all were actually very similar, and for a long time drug dealers were cutting heroin. I'm there's a lot of activities for drug dealing, boyfriend, that's why so much in heroin.

So drug dealers everyone with sencing all. So you use sencing all the same way that you use heroin, You just get hide quicker and you dry quicker. Got you, okay? You basically stay away from both of us, Are you okay? Though? Yes, I'm okay. Yes. For a long time a little I am what you call it harm reductionist. So I believe that people are gonna do what they want when they want to, and like, my job is to just help

you do that astafically as possible. So I worked in a needle exchange where I would give out like plaint needles, make sure people got tested for like HIV, had to see make sure they were doing whatever they were doing and they were doing in space. I got questions. I got questions about that, like what what do you what do they think the benefits of that is? Do they think these people are beyond rehab, beyond any help? No, So we try to get them rehab, We try to

get them help. But like if you don't want to get help, and you're not going to get help, and you don't want to get help, that's fine. We just don't want you to die, right, Okay, So six people a day die and master you just because of the opioid epidemics and like we just want to reduce those young. Letting them do drugs when they want reduces the amounts. She's saying, they're gonna do it anyway. Yeah, I don't

let them do drugs. I just give them things that help them do it, like healthier, so you don't kill yourself. It's a healthy way to do heroin, so you don't use dirty needles and things like that. People that people will don't pick up needles out the stream, and like, we don't want to do any of that. And some people say they said they use antendis from cars, They break off antendis from cars to use its. Basically, you're

prolonging their death because they're gonna die eventually anyway. Maybe hopefully get help at some point when they're anybody, get rehab ye. But the point that you make Charlomagne because of that reason, so many of my clients for nying, even though like one of my work to guide and I was like javastating. So actually I decided I wanted to work with my clients before and he became my client. And I am now a middle school teacher trying to help hims not go down that path right, that's important.

It could be in a conversation at even it's not even,

It's a difference like Jay Rock Redemption I mean Jay Rock Win Win Win. That's a mantra. Lodi wos mole bitch is a mantra. It's a difference between a good song and a mantra. Something that you can put on your

Facebook page. You know what I'm saying. If you don't have a Facebook page, or you put it on yesterday and you put on your Twitter anyway, Well, let's get to the rooms. Let's talk Ellen DeGeneres. Listen, Oh gosh, got angels report the breakfast Club. Well, Ellen DeGeneres is figuring you out what is going to be her next step in twenty twenty, that's when her contract comes to an end. According to sources, she's just not sure what

she wants to do. She's won fifty seven Daytime Emmy since the show debuted back in two thousand and three, and so who knows what's going to happen. And then she is sixty plus years old, so she could be mulling retirement for real, you because she does a lot

of executive producing behind the scenes. But you know, when you start talking that I don't know if I'm gonna be here talk of that contract up, that's when they back up that brinks give you more money, ellerg a matter of fact, Ellen Jor don't need a truck, she need a planet. Well, she's getting advice from her brother and from her wife, and so her brother is saying she can't stop. Her wife is saying she has other things she could tackle. So she's just kind of torn

Yes, he was married, don't know if he's still married, don't know if they're in the process of getting their divorced.

But well, congrats to I'll dropping a clues bons for Risk the Kid. I can see why you shot Tory Bricks club up dropping a clues bon for Tory Bricks. That's the homie shop, Caroline. All right now. Steph Curry is addressing these comments that he made about whether or not somebody really landed on the moon. If you guys remember he was on the Ringer podcast winging it and said this, we've ever been to the Moon? No, Nope,

they're good as the moon. You don't think so? All right, Well, apparently now he's saying that he was obviously just joking, but NASA has already invited him to come, and I guess they want to show him some things to prove that really they did land on the Moon. And so he said he is going to take them up on their offer to check out their lunar lab and better educate himself. So the only reason people don't believe somebody landing on the moon because if you look at the

quality of the moon landing video, now it's trash. They need a new moon landing in HD. You know what I'm saying. Somebody got to put it up on the GRAM, Like they got to show us landing on the Moon in real time. It don't like it's just like looking at an old TV show. Old TV shows look trash. Now, You like, dam I can't believe I used to watch this. When you watch this old landing, you're like, I don't

believe they really landed on the mooning looks trash.

Okay, I know you're off from work today, but I still have to work. All right, Well, let's get in some front

page news. All right, oh you guys. Scores, no, no scores, just starting that football the Chargers take on the Chiefs. All right in Delta is gonna be banning puppies and kittens from all of their flights. What's going on with Delta? Now? All right, Now, here's the situation. They're gonna ban service and emotional support animals under four months of age from all their flights starting December eighteen. So I'm just telling

you this because I know a lot of people are traveling. Also, if your flight is over eight hours long, they will not allow you to bring emotional support animals on those longer flights at all, period. And that's partly to address animals that relieve themselves on the airplane. So wait a minute, they're gonna ban animals support animals emotionally support your kids flights eight hours and longer. Okay, how do you check a dog's ideo? How do you know if the dogs

four months older? That like? How like the dogs have? I d How do you know? Do you have to bring paperwork on the plane? I never bought a pet on the plane. No, you just need that vest, the vest that says yo in a note from a doctor. I'm talking about their age though. How do you know how older dogs? If this ain't they banning dogs? And how many? How much you much? Four months? An? I do say five months? You can exactly the same thing if you want to, you know, fly with a child

on the plane. As long as the child under two years old, it's free. They don't ask, you know, they don't. You can't show paperwork and say how old is this child? You just say it could be a five year old, just say a child a little different the eyes. But you can eyeball a kid and be like, all right, that kid is. I was doing that for a minute and until somebody put me up. Was like, I heard you on the radio. He said your son was three. I was like, all right, you got me. I'll pay

for this ticket. No, you shouldn't have been talking so much on the damn radio, right, all right, Apple is going to be spending one billion dollars for a new campus in Austin. They're going to create twenty thousand jobs over the next five years building that campus as well. So yeah, they definitely have that money. They also plan to build new offices in Seattle, San Diego, and Culver City over the next three years, and each of those offices will have more than one thousand employees. All right.

In Tennessee, the Governor Bill Haslam said he is considering clemency for centoyat Brown. We've been talking a lot about her. She's a sex trafficking victim. She was sentenced to life in prison. She killed a forty three year old man who solicited her for sex, but she was only sixteen years old at the time. Now, her side of the story is that she thought he was reaching for a gun after she turned down his request for sex, and that's when she reaching her bag, pulled out a gun

and killed him first. So it was self defense according to her. But she has been sentenced and said that she has to serve fifty one years in prison before she is eligible for release. So right now they're going to review her case and consider whether or not they'll grant her clemency. That young lady definitely deserves leniency on her senate. She's a real young lady who never stood a chance. She was born with feet of alcoholic syndrome,

didn't have parents. Forced in the sex trafficking. Come on, man, very sad and Michael Cohen, who is Donald Trump's former lawyer, has to spend thirty six months in prison. He will be going to one of the cushiest prisons in America. The prison that they felt that he's going to go to is was named by Forbes as America's top ten

cushiest prisons. So he had tweeted back in twenty fifteen to Hillary Clinton at Hillary Clinton, when you go to prison for Deflorida America and perjury, your room and board will be free. Well, now he has free room and board. Congratulations, Michael Cohen. I think he's the first in a long

line of people in the Trump administration that'll be getting incarcerated. Yeah, he said he was trying to protect Donald Trump when they had gotten that hush money and given that hush money to two women who had sexual relationships allegedly with Donald Trump. All right, lad's front page news. Now when we come back. The Oger Towns. Townsen is a whole legend. If you don't know who Robert Townsen is, you probably know some of his work. You know, to me, the

thank you, thank you so much for having me. Thank you, thank you, thank you. You're talking about black Hollywood. You are one of the architects of black Hollywood. I would say, well, uh, well, thank you. You know what I mean. I've been in the game a minute, and I think, you know, uh kind of started it, jump started it. You know. Hollywood Shuffle was one of the first films. She's Got to Have. It came out in New York and Keenan and I.

I did Hollywood Shuffle in LA. Was it easily difficult for you to get films made as a black man in that era? Very difficult. We only did one black movie a year. So when I did Hollywood Shuffle, you know, it was kind of groundbreaking because now you got everybody that's writing, directing, producing, and picking up a camera. Back then,

everybody was kind of a little scared. You know. Hollywood Shuffle was basically about a guy taking shucking and driving roles that showed black people in a negative layer, right like reinforcing the negative stereotypes of black people. Yeah. Well, I mean back then, the only parts that we were auditioning for were like slaves, runaway slaves. You got pimps,

you got hustlers, the illiterate basketball players. So it was always those stereotypical roles, and so Keenan and I were thinking about, like, well, how do we flip the script, how do we do a story about these images and kind of give our real truth? Why did Hollywood allow that at that time? Like why did you let y'all make that? Because it's kind of like making fun of them in a way. Uh, you know, it wasn't Hollywood didn't allow us. You know, we just you know, we

were being renegades. I mean, the whole legend behind Hollywood Shuffle was that, you know, I financed the film with my own personal money and then credit cards, did you Yes, I really did. It was about one hundred thousand dollars to do the movie, and then we eventually did close to eight million. Wow. So you know, so that's how the legend of you know, Townsend started. I like this because people don't hear these starts, you know what I'm saying.

They don't hear that you had to finance the movie yourself, you know, instead of beating down these white men people's dogs, begging them to do something. Well, you know, I mean, you know, when I look at the images, you know, back then they were trying to keep us in a box. And the more you see, you know, the ignorant brother on TV or some stupid stuff, then you know, you keep you dumb everybody down, and everybody keeps you know, dumbing down. And I think with Hollywood Shuffle, we kind

of shook the game up a little bit. And I think a lot of filmmakers were born because they go, if if Townsend could do it and Keenan can do it, I can make my own movies. Well, how did people watch Hollywood Shuffle? Will still end up chucking and driving and dumbing itself down, especial black people. Uh, you know, people want to work, so you know, part of the thing in Hollywood Shuffle was that, you know, you know, I you know, we wrote the line there's always work

at the post office. And some people feel like, you know, if they could be on TV, you know, they don't care whatever part they're gonna play. They just want to do the part instead of like really thinking about it and going like, you know, like my mentor, Sydney Portier, that was the first cat I ever met when I got to Hollywood. I just wanted to meet him, and he had dignity back in the fifties and he's just

you know, he broke it down from me. He says, Man, it's the power to say no. And that's my mantra to this day. What do you think about some of these comedians and actors that play those type of roles and they play them rolls over and over and over again. You know. You know, the funny thing is that, you know, people gotta work. Every man's got to live with his own conscious and every woman's got to live with it her own conscious. And so if you cool with it,

that's that's that's for you. But you know, the thing for me is that everything I've ever created, I'm really proud of the fact that people watch it to this day, you know, different things, and so I think that's a testament to the work. Now, let's discuss what we're here for, because this is one of my favorite movies of all time. Thank you the Five Beats. You have the documentary about the making of it, and I saw that you put on Twitter that Denzel and Whitney Houston were originally casted.

You know what I had. I wanted to cast Whitney Houston in the part of Baby Dial and so I came to New York City to meet with her, her and her father, and we were this close to having her in the film, and then her agent said the part was too small. And so you see in a documentary where I talked about how Whitney called me and she says, I made a mistake. I should have been in the Five Harbats. Baby Doll did a great job though, Yeah, Troy Troy was amazing in the film, and but you know,

she was going to be in it. Denzel was going to be my first choice to be Eddie King Junior. But then when Michael came in and I met with Michael, I was like, this is the dude to play as a game. I didn't realize the Five Harveyts wasn't a real group until this year. What you know what I saw you tweeted that and everybody went crazy. They were like, you know, I thought y'all was real. Like sometimes I go to the airport and people stopped me going when

you guys are gonna be torn again. We're not dropping an album, Rob, We're not dropping an album duck, you know. And I go like, no, no, I'm a filmmaker, you know, but people think we are real group. But those songs that like real songs that are you know, could play like for real on the radio. Well, you know the same way. Oh you know, okay, n No, Keenan and I are working on the Broadway show right now. No,

we're working on a Broadway show. We got a top Broadway producer I can't mention his name right now, and he's going to work with us. And we also have a Grammy winning blah blah blah blah blah with all these album of the years, that's going to write new music. Go ahead, John Lejo, you know, I ain't say John Legend. I didn't say it is that's a good time because you see Motown the musical was there, and then the

Temptations have their musical as well. Who else share has a musical out right now that's gonna be awesome to thank you, thank you. So we're in the trenches now, you know, we've been you know, we wrote a you know, there's a song that when Eddie leaves the group, when he you know, gets all skinny and he goes gang, there is a song that will will break your heart. All those groups are real. To see, this is what must be about the Five Heartbeats. I'm watching it because

you know it repeats all the time. Yes, so something decided to make me pull out my laptops and let me google and see what Eddie came them doing that And I'm serious and it was like five Heartbeat fictional group and I just can't be real, said, how about that? And then I was reading about it. It was based on different groups. I saw you tweeted about that, and then I saw all of these different people comment like, they're not really, They're not real. What do you mean

they're not real? Oh my god. If I weren't serious, I wasn't even I had no idea. It wasn't real. Know. When when I went to me and Michael went to David Ruffin's funeral, it's in the documentary you'll see I went to the funeral. And when we went to the funeral, they had sections for the different groups, like the Four Tops over here, the Tempts over there, the Miracles over here, and the usher said, you know that we saved seats

for the Heartbeat because we knew y'all was coming. And it was like and I was like, dude, we're not real. They had to sit next to you know. So it was like but like like a real group. So what was the inspiration for that film? Just? Okay, So here's here's here's the truth. When I was a kid growing up in the West Side of Chicago and I hear herb kent to cool Gen on w v o N in Chicago, he says, the Temptations are breaking up. David

Ruffin is leaving the group. And when I heard that, I was like, that's the greatest group of all time? Why y'all breaking up? Hit after hit? And in my brain it was like, I want to know what happened? They sing all these beautiful love songs. Do they really have love in their lives? And then that became the catalyst to when I became an adult. After Hollywood Shuffle, I said to Kenan, I want to do a story about what happened to a group like that? And so

that's how it all started. So why are you doing a doc about it? The journey behind the movie? You will not believe. The documentary is like a movie on to itself. I saw close to ten thousand actors to find the four actors to be in the movie. I had open calls in New York, open calls in LA, open calls in Chicago. In Chicago, you see online this young cat in a group, you know, auditioning, and there was something about him. I'd go like, this dude got something.

Wait a minute, this dude really has something. And then I talked to him and I had like thousands of people online. The guy online was R Kelly get out of audition for the five and we have the video. So when you see the documentary, you see all the people. You see a young Don Cheetle, you see Niss Nash. It's all these people, got all this footage. Wait until you see the documentary. God saved you because they'd been

pulling the five hourt beats off all the repeat. You know what, because at that point I had I had a choir boy, I had j T and I just didn't know what part he was going to play. All Right, we got more with Robin Towns and when we come back, don't move. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning, morning, everybody is DJ Envy and Yee Charlomagne, the guy. We all the breakfast club. We still have Robert Towns in the building. Charlomagne. I was gonna ask why you're doing a five Horbies documentary,

but I get it now. Let me say this, nobody wanted to movie. All the studios passed on the sprint. Really, so you see today, me and Keenan, we're writing the script. We handed into the studio. We think we're gonna get a green light, and they say no, So how did they Eventually they'll get in Greenland. After three years, I got new managers and this is all in the documentary, and then I got the green light. It had to be very difficult to explain black culture to white executives then,

because it's difficult now, so I can imagine back then. Well, you know, let me say this, that was the first time you had seen five black men bonding, you know, like a family, you know, like they go through their fights and at the end of the day they have a picnic together, they come back together and their family. To explain that to Hollywood, you know, was a trip because they were like, well, aren't they all in jail? You know, shouldn't they all be thieves? Should't they all

be And it was all the stereotypical stuff. And then I was like, no, no, we all we come in different you know, we're not monolithic. Yeah, we all are different types. And and you know, so when the Five Harbis came out, you know, the movie bombed at the

box office. It did, the bombed. I mean you you'll that's why I said you when you see the most powerful scenes in there are when they're on that tour bus and they get pulled over by the cops and the cops or in the on them in the car and the cops make them sing to prove that they're

a music group. And also you could cover up the album when it was they had white people on the cover of the album instead of what they really looked like, just to show the time period that came from the DALs, you know, when when when uh, you know, in the dock you you discover that the Dales are my technical advisors. And there's a reason why, and you got to see it.

But then the Deals, their first album cover was Old What a Night, you know, like their big hit, and on the cover is a white couple on Michigan Avenue looking so much in love. And so when I asked him, I said, well, why don't you guys get to be on your own cover? And then like they're in the seventies, and they their heads went down like this, and then they said the record company said, if they saw our faces, white people wouldn't buy the album. And so they said, well,

your face can't be honest. This will help you cross over. And then that's when it gets into the whole conversation about the crossover. It's a double cross. It's the five heart beats, your crown jewel for your films. Uh, you know what, I've done a lot of different movies. So I don't say that that's the crown jewel because media media Man represents another part of we talk about that. You know, U vaps is another part of me as

a director. Holiday Hart is another part. So all the different things I've created, you know, my body of work. You know, I think, you know, I think a real artist shows their versatility. They just show you that they can touch any kind of genre. You mentioned media Man. Before Black Panther and Luke Cage, there was Media Man. What gave you the idea? Idea to do a black superhero back then, and how did that do too? How did that do in the box of it? It didn't

do well either. It didn't do Let me let me say this, because back they do well for you nothing, no, no, you know, let me say let me say this kind of you has been good. Here's the thing. At the end of the day, those films are considered classics by a lot of people. So when I did Meetior Man, my nephew at the time, Greg Junior, it was Halloween, and you know, I was like, are you gonna be what you're gonna be for Halloween? Spider Man, Superman, Batman?

He goes, I can't be to them because they're white, and I was like, you know, it's a little kid, you know, but he saw color, and I was like, I got to create a superhero for you know, you know, people of color and for everybody, and I'll create my own rather than like, hey, I gotta get a book or I gotta get Marveled to give me one of the characters. I'll just create mine. You know, I was ahead of the curve. You think Me and Man was too jokey, well, you know, you know, let me say this,

there was a part of it. You know, the thing that it's very serious but it's also jokey. But you know, there are people that go, like, metior Man' is my movie, and I'm just you know, I'm a comedian, so I'm gonna give you the funny rather than like be a dark superhero. Media Man he comes. You know, I didn't want to do that. That's what it seems like. It seemed like a spoof of a superhero. Well it was, but it wasn't. You know, like I think blank Man was more of a spoon, you know what I mean.

But I think, but I say Media Man because at the end of the day, he really did have to fight. He was slapsticking away. But at the end of the day, you know, the Golden Lords really tried to come after him, and you know, it was what it was. What do you watch now? I'm still watching Dave Chappelle's show. You know, I'm old school, so it's like his stuff is really

beautiful and funny to me. I haven't seen any new movies and I'm like crazy crazy about But right now, in terms of television, there's shows that I got to catch up on, but I've just been writing, you know, working on the show. So I've been you know, writing understand why Dave Chappelle walked away from the Chappelle Show. H yeah, yeah, I mean he's a genius. I really There's a few, you know, like Richard Pryor is a comedy guy. Eddie Murphy's up there, and I think Dave Chappelle,

you know, because I thought rock him too. Yes, yes, yes, I thought rocking there too, you know. I mean the thing for me is that I think that his brain, you know, because every laugh ain't ain't a good laugh, and he heard those other laughs where you know, because he's out there on the in the zone, you know, he heard that other laugh where it's like, wait a minute, they kind of laughing from some racism here, not from me now with me. And so I think I applaud

him for, you know, for being that guy. Got you. I was gonna say, you know, you talked about Dave Chappelle, and we talked about Living Color. You think we'll ever see comedy like that again on TV, like that sketch comedy like that. I think that, Yeah. I think there'll there'll be a new group that will emerge that will have that kind of sensibility, because that's real funny stuff to me be snatched off after the first episode, after

the first episode. I think for a newer comedians it's probably harder too, because it's such a politically correct time. Like some of the ones that are already established, I feel like you can get away with more because you're already established, you've made it. But for people trying to make it, they might be a little more cautious just because of the time. But you know, I really think

it's the delivery of the joke. It's the comedy, like Richard did it because he was like a kid and Eddie made I mean Richard made a lot of fun of himself. Yes, no, I mean Richard. You know, I mean Richard Pryor. He signed me to my first deal when I came to la Oh. Let's talk about that then, because he knows all these talks about black gatekeepers in Hollywood and black gatekeepers let certain people in. Who let you in? Was it Richard? Richard Pryor was the first

one to put me down. But the first break I got was a movie called A Soldiers Story, and that was Norman Jewish and directing it, and it was me it was Denzel, it was David Allen Greer, it was Howard Rollins, it was a guy named Adolf Caesar. That was my first like break where I got to be in a movie that was nominated for Academy Awards and and I got to be a regular person and it was a quality movie. Wow, that was the first one. So you would credit that guy as your gatekeeperman whatever,

you know, Like, let me let me say this. Sidney Portier said that a lot of times people see like U in the heat of the night and he slaps the white dude and you know, it's like all this dignity and all this stuff. And he says something to me, and he said, there are men that don't look like us that care about making a difference. And you know, you may say gatekeepers, but then there's good people in the world too, they say, hey, this this ain't right.

So you know you need those champions. I call the champions. Robert gotta go. I know, man, damn man, I got so many questions. But you know, well, let's make sure we watched this documentary about so it's it's playing at the Mazel up in Harlem. It's gonna be playing there until Thursday. It's the Mazel Documentary Center. It's at one hundred and twenty ninth and Lenox Avenue, and then it'll be available in February on DVD and streaming services. Right all right, and man, thank you guys so much for

And we have been on this radio for eight years, eight years, eight long years, eight years, and we have been celebrating every day since our eight year anniversary by playing some of the best and the worst moments, a little bit of everything to Breakfast Club. At this moment, I totally forgot about us. They don't even I don't remember. I remember. I'm gonna listen to this to refresh my memory. Actually, who well, you used to call Joscelyn a man all the time? Listen, listen,

When Jocelyn first came on the scene, everybody and named Mama thought she was somebody's dad. No. I knew she had I knew she was definitely traf. Come on, come on, Trav, since you probably the only honest person in the room day, I'm gonna say it is um Cardi. B's what Joscelyn wanted to be. Cardi. Okay, yeah, we y'all knew she was a girl. She had strong features,

and I never thought she was a man. But she definitely had very strong features. She works out a lot, She's very you know, toned. She could have played in Joanna Man Part two.

Man. cVj should have snuffed me. TVJ never really liked Joscelyn. He definitely should. Ain't no way you're gonna sit there and let a

We'll talk about that next week. Let's talk about let's let's talk about your butt. Now, what about it? Never mind. All right,

What popular designer? We'll tell you in the rumors. All right, we'll get to that next, keeping life just to breakfast local boy, everybody and cej Envy, Angela Yee, Charlomagne the guy we are the Breakfast Club. What you're laughing about?

Let's talk about the most search clothing line. This is the rumor report with Angela ye Breakfast Club. Well, what clothing brand was the most search clothing brand of twenty eighteen? Selling out? When Cardi B dropped her clothing line in just minutes?

Of course, it was fashion over According to Google's twenty eighteen year in search Findings, fashion over beat out designers like Louis Vati Versacchi. All of that so congratulations to them. And with Fashion Over men's line hitting right now, it's going to be even for Fashion Over that. Nigga's gonna I say it like that, But I wasn't they not own about black people, did not at all? Really negative. Now, man, that takes all the wind out of my sales. I

thought I thought they were a black owned company. But they are getting a lot of people paid though, And you know, shout out to Fashion Over. When we did our change for change, they actually donated a nice amount of money to us. It was like twenty five thousand dollars and I was giving away Fashion Over gift cards all day as well. We find out y'all making Milannia Trump rich on the low and don't even know that Milannia Trump owned who as got damn Fashioned Over? Now?

I want to know who owns fashioned old? Just look at pictures Cardi B's posting him everything. You can see who it is, But it's not Milannia Trump. I had no idea. I thought they were black own company all right. Now. Lebron he did a post on unto and it's all about remember when Lebron came back when he was playing on the Miami heat and played back in Cleveland for the first time since they found out he was leaving after he made that big announcement, and imagine how awkward

it was they were burning his jerseys. Here's what he had to say about what that day was like coming back to Cleveland. Everybody was kind of waiting for that moment when the schedule came out and scene I was making my return. I mean, my mindset going into that game was like, I'm gonna tear the ass up. I

would never forget that day. December second to the other team, head down to the bus and on my Florida the elevator opens and it's two guys that have LB J T shirts on, two of them, and the elevator opens, and when they noticed as me, one of the guys say, oh, I'll take a picture with you. And when it's closing, he say, I'm not even from Cleveland, all right. Well, you know the craziest thing, um, when I traveled a lot, when I see players staying in hotels, I'm really shocked

that it's not more security. When I was in Charlotte recently, Lebron the whole Lakers were and I was really shocked that they were just walking around the hotel, no problem, no security or nothing like that. It really gonna run up on twelve six foot ten people. Stick up, kid, You know how it's gonna be to run out of the hotel getting the elevator after highly highly with security

cameras everywhere you can shake. You think just because the NBA player has a multimillion dollar contract, they're walking around with a million dollars in their pocket like that would be away. And then a lot of times in hotels you have to use your key card to even get in the elevator and go upstairs and the like. You can just run up if you might height right five six foxs that five four. You can't just run up on a six to eleven person and snatch state chain.

You know what I'm saying, Like him, you gotta have a forty You gotta have a forty inch vertical to snatch lebronze chains. Right, what are you talking about? Light is wallowed out? And what kind of hotel are they staying in? With that kind of element would just be floating around that hotel? Envy? Everybody know what the state when they in tail and you were there? Were you walking around with security. Yes, liar, all right, I manage it again. That's your room report, all right? Shot by Yes,

even that donkey to you. I am giving donkey today to some people who you hire security to protect you from. All Right. These two rappers from Houston name NFL Cartel and Maxwell Cream. They both need to come to the front of the carry gay thing because I don't know when you people are gonna learn, and the things you do online we'll get you jammed up offline. We'll talk about it for after the hour. All right, that happens next keeping lot this to Breakfast Club. Go morning the

Breakfast Club. Your mornings will never be the same. Run to you by Aquaman. On December twenty first joined Aquaman on the epic journey to discover who he was born to be, the bridge between two worlds. Aquaman in theaters everywhere. At the Cember twenty first home was calling rated PG thirteen Schuler Maine say the game Dune other shape man? You are, don't you? Donkey today does not discriminate. I might not have the song of today, but I got

the donkey that day. So if you ever feel I need to be a donkey man, hit it with the the breakfast club bitches. They just don't keep the day today well at sharing don't get a day for Thursday, December twelve codes to two Houston rappers, Maxwel Cream and

NFL Cartel Bowl. Now, I personally never heard of these two brothers before this situation, and I'm disappointed that we have to meet like this, but here it is because of Maxwel Cream and NFL Cartel Bow twenty minute now facing gun charges because for whatever reason, people if not realized that what you do online can directly impact your life offline. Maxwell Cream and NFL Cartel Bow have a record call Hoover. Now. I tried to listen to the record, but I'm old, so I didn't get it. Sounded like

a bunch of violent noise to me. I heard a line about an AK messing up your molecular structure. I heard something about someone riding around with a tech and another bar about someone aiming above the neck and missing nothing. Maybe you can make out more than me and this record. Let's hear it in the neck in the struct sense. A customer problems cussing, a bustle, what's that smoment? Get alright? Fart on that record? Please, confession. I don't know what

the hell they were saying. My producer Dan printed out the lyrics. That's how I knew what they were saying. Okay, they were saying, Ain't nothing smoother than a Hoover load. I tell you what. That maybe a trash ass record, but that lodle jingle would have been perfect for Hoover vacuums. All right, Somebody at Who would need to make a commercial immediately. That is a great tagline for Hoover vacuums.

Ain't nothing smooth than a Hoover all right. Now, if you're rapping about that many guns, that much violence in the song, the video has to reflect that, right well, the video of Who would definitely reflected that. Let's go to Click to Houston for the report. Police themselves, Cream and NFL cartel Bow. The featured rappers chose Lakewood Park next to Hilliard Elementary School to shoot their videos. They did it at about the same time school was letting out.

Some of the kids actually got into the video. What also got in were about a dozen loaded guns, some of them stolen, that were being used for props and the extress holding the guns. According to police, the all documented street gang members. Some people driving by saw men with guns here on the basketball court and called police. I think when police showed up some suspects with open warrants who were arrested on the spot, but much of the cast ran, leaving behind the weapons and small amounts

of drugs. He did the product. Two months later, the video was released online and it was a hit, but it's also the tool police used to track down and identify everyone in the videos who was holding a weapon. Twenty have been charged with illegal possession of weapons, including rapper NFL Cartel Bow, also known as Warren Brown, a convicted felon, and Brown was charged with illegally possessing two assault rivals and with threatening a police officer on the

way to jail. He was released on bonds in order to wear an ankle monitors, but police say he cut it off and disappeared. He's still on the run, along with eight other suspects of the twenty finishing shade charges. Eleven have also been charged in federal court, and police say some of them were already wanted for questioning and connection with other unrelated crimes. There's so much to unpack here. First of all, NFL Cartel convicted felon had an ankle bracelet on, but he cut it off and he's on

the run. Now, if I had a bunch of illegal guns and drugs and I shot a music video and the police showed up and I ran and I got away, I would be a static. If I dropped my weapons at the scene and ran and got away, I would definitely lay loaf forever because I don't know what's on those guns. I don't know what can be traced back to me. You ran away from the scene of his crime because that's what it was, a crime. You ran because you know you have warrants, you know you have

illegal weapons, you know you had drugs. You ran because you didn't want to get caught and go to jail. So why in the hell two months later would you post a video on World Star showing everyone who ran holding these guns. Seriously serious question. What is considered snitching in this era? I really want to know, because law enforcement always tells people if they see something, say something. Don't nobody say more about what they see than the

people who are actually committing the crimes. Nowadays, law enforcement has the easiest job in the world because eventually all crimes will be solved and resolved because unied girls are addicted to social media. All right, Criminals turn rappers, rappers turn federal agents, or all of y'all work for law enforcement and don't even know it. I'm reading the article right here. It says verbet them on Complex dot com and you heard the news report police use this video

to track down the men holding weapons and arrest them. Duh. Now, twenty people have been charged with the legal possession of a weapon, eleven have been arrested, and nine others is still on the run for no damn reason. Because it's only a matter of time before they get caught, and they probably will get caught because of social media, especially now that this story is in the news. You think

they're gonna miss their chance to shine. If we invited them on the Breakfast club right now, they would show up and do an interview on camera talking about out how they are on the run. All right. I just want people to pick a side. You can't do crime and be a professional rapper. The two don't mix. Either you want to carry guns, push drugs, kill people, or you want to rap. I know a lot of rappers. If confused you over the years but trust me, a lot of these guys are just talking about what you

brothers are actually doing. And I have said for years, if rappers were really doing what they said they were doing in their raps, majority of rappers would be dead are in jail. And NFL Cartell and Maxel Cream are proof for that. Please let hmm give NFL, Cartell and Maxel Cream the biggest he haw he haw he haa you stupid mother? Are you dumb? And you know I'm on record some years ago saying that I love when

gangster rappers do actual gangster things. In my younger years, I used to love the ignorance of people who actually were live in their raps. But his first Cariiffians thirteen eleven says, when I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I put the ways of childhood behind me. And being a real screet niggains quite childish, only because for so long in the

hood were real to being something criminal. And I'm secrecy and my brother's glorified crime in their music and ps guns in your video don't make your song sound better? Okay, okay, all right, well, thank you for that. Donkey to day up. Next is ask Ye eight hundred five eight five one oh five one. If you need relationship advice to any type of advice, call Ye. Now it's the Breakfast Club. Good morning, the Breakfast Club wanting everybody is DJ Envy,

Angela Yee, Charlomagne the guy. We are the Breakfast Club. It's time for ask Ye. Hello. Who's this? Hi? This is Sharon. Hey, Sharon, what's your question for you? Hi? You? Good morning. I'm happy to finally get through. I never to get through, but I have a question. Um, me and my son father, we've been together for four years and U two years into our relationship. We had got it in my fifth partnership, so um, actually the anniversary for that is coming up on the similar to fifth team.

So I recently on Facebook back and like October that we was gonna get married that day. So when he's seen it, he kind of reacted in a way like oh, it's kind of rushed, and you know all this other stuff. And a month later, I found though that I was pregnant, So I was like, okay, maybe we could push it back. Maybe I could just have the gender reveal and you know, we just you know, think about another day for the wedding.

He was fine with that or whatever. But recently, just yesterday, we was talking and I was telling him how I'm never satisfied. Nothing really makes me happy completely, like and I admit that, like I do have like an issue with that. Well, I said to him, I said, maybe, you know, if we get married and you know, be my husband, maybe I feel like my life is complete and you know, maybe I will be sat in the line and then I'll be happy. He proceeded to say, oh,

even then, you still won't be happy. Like what is that? Like? How could you say something like that. I was not looking for that. I was looking for him to be supportive and say, you know what, baby, you know one day we're gonna have this day. But Sharon, I would say, in a way, I'm gonna have to say he's right about a certain thing. You don't wait until after you get married to say well, maybe when this happens, this

is gonna complete me, because it really might not. You gotta be complete as a person before you get married. I'm not saying that. And you have to be and you have to be in a good space in your you admit, which is great that you can admit that you have some issues as far as not being satisfied. You need to work on those things before you guys decided to spend the rest of your life together and

make that commitment. I think a lot of times people think that once we sign these papers and get married and have the ceremony, that's gonna fix everything, And that's not true. You gotta fix those things first, and obviously nothing is perfect, but work on that right, right, But still like four years and before him, I was in a relationship, but almost ten years no commitment, Like as just I don't want to repeat the thing, you know thing.

I'm not trying to push it more than he's you know, pushing it, but I feel like I want it more, you know, than he wanted. Right every time we talk about it or I'll bring it up or whatever, it's not that he ignoring it. It's just like I guess he's tired of hearing it. But like what it's going to happen out of the four years, I feel like I'm stuck in between a rock and the hall place.

So what you guys should do is set a deadline for when you're gonna have a discussion about it and you need to work on whatever it is that you both need to work on as individuals and what you're bringing into the relationship and then say, okay, in a few months, and if it's six months from that, I let to revisit this and see where we're at. But come up with that agreement and work on yourself first. So give yourself was a date that y'all gonna sit down and talk and see where you got to by

that point. But don't think that we're gonna get married and it's gonna fix everything. But you don't think that was wrong for him saying that, like for moral support. I was not expecting that you wanted a certain answer from him, and that's why you said that, And he didn't give you the answer that you wanted. But he was honest but how he felt. And that just means that y'all got some things to work on. I guess.

So maybe I'll do be overdoing it. Maybe the preg if you got me going like crazy, I don't know. Great it could be And it's not a bad thing you said. He's not saying it's off the table. He does want to do it, but you can acknowledge that there's certain things first before we get to that point. Let's fix these things as best as we can and learn how to deal with it. We always have problems,

it's how we deal with those problems. Yeah, you think, like maybe because people ask to me, like go to counseling, But I'm like, that's for like married people like sharing go to counseling. That's great that he wants to do that. You'll be surprised what can come out of it. You should go. I think it's fantastic. That means that he's looking at this as a long term thing. You got to be receptive too, I guess. So I'm just so

against like therapists and all that. I feel like when you go see those type of people, you can't resolve issues on your own. How do you know, have you ever gone? I've never know. I've never gone. Okay, so you don't know. It's helped a lot of people, So you should try it. It might be something phenomenal that

comes out of it for you. But the fact that he's making these suggestions and you're shutting them down, that's not a good sign that that's very stubborn of you, I guess, so he says that a lot too, like I'm so stubborn. I like, you won't even agree, You'll just say I guess so maybe I don't know seeing you were about to say it again. I'm really trying to work with it. Open open up, sharing, open up. Okay,

thanks Angela, You're welcome. All right? Ask Ye eight hundred five eight five one on five one if you got a question for Ye? Calling now? Was the Breakfast Club one morning? Good morning? Everybody is DJ Envy Angela? Yee, Charlo Mine the guy we are the Breakfast Club with in the middle of ask Ye, Hello, who's this? Hey? It's Manny from Milano. Hey, Manny, what's your question for Ye?

I was just trying to seem like I've been hitting people up on Instagram, like DJ Grant Street, and I would hate to be like annoying them per system, but I'm trying to like get into a new field. What do you think is the limit when you're like trying to contact someone, Well, first of all, I don't know. Yes, things can happen for you on Instagram, but you have to do a great follow up because people are cansting getting messages and bombarded by people, so we have to

see how professional you are. So what that means is I think Instagram is fine for an initial contact and then take it off of social media. So ask for an email address or an assistant or somebody that you can send information to, or if they can refer you to someone else, because you don't want to put it all on that person. So if you're trying to get a job at a radio station or working with somebody, I think it's important to go through the proper channels

and not just hit someone on Instagram. For some people, Instagram is more of a fun thing to do, and also you know they don't want to just hire somebody off of there, so you need to take it to the next level for people to see how professional you are. Okay, if you think it'd be weird to go to the radio station, like I don't want to be that creepy guy, but I would rather that you go to an event where people are invited to and approach someone there, then

pop up at the radio station. You know, it depends on it. You never know what could happen, but you know, if there's a way you can establish a connection with somebody who works in human resources or another person there that you can actually sit down and interview with before you get to that, but just go through certain channels so that people also don't feel like, why is this

person harassing me or stalking me? I understand one more question? Hey, Aby, when are you coming to Atlanta for real estate classes? You know it's funny. I'm gonna try to come the weekend of super Bowl. The Thursday of super Bowl. We're trying to lock in a place there, so I'm trying to shortly soon, very soon. You're trying to do a group one, dude, because I got a couple of friends. But we aren't trying to take that hundred for a person.

We're working out. I'm trying to. You know, we spont to some people ago as well, but yeah, we're trying to work it out. All right, you're gonna check it. I'll check it. When it comes to real estate, I always check it. Bro appreciate it. Alright, let's go to another line. Hello, who's this nanny? Hey? What's your question for you? Basically, my question is if a man has a micropener, has a lot for himself, what should I do? All right? So it's penis is really small, but everything

else is great? Can you still get an orgasms? Not really? Why are you laughing? Traff girl? Leave him? Yeah I used to, but to orgasm? Do you enjoy having sex or is it terrible? It's terrible basically like if takes enough where I can, like, you know, feel something, but it's just the length of it. It's like a Michael Peter Oh man, he does he go down on you? Are the other things that he does that kind of supplement that he's one of those guys It doesn't like

to give oral either. Oh he's got some nerves no Dominican m Well, then you guys need to have a conversation. I'm sure he's quite aware that he has a small penis, and maybe he's even feels a way about it. But here, Yeah, how you going to have that conversation? I'm just curious this. Yeah, I wouldn't say that you have, but I would be, like, you know, sexually. I think there's more things we need to experiment with, and I really need you to do oral as well for me to be satisfied. That's gonna

break this hard. I know it's not. I can tell you what to say, girl, let him know it's too many men. I have a bigger meat. Yeah, he's not dealing with that. In twenty nineteen. He has a lot of going from sol though he has three masters. Um, he has a great job, like sixty an hour. Yeah, you gotta do something to make up for the that your penis is smoking. Are you in love with him? Um? It's been about a year now and I don't know. Are you in love with him? Yes? Or no? Don't

think about everything he has going for him. You just think it's a good idea. Are you in love? No? Okay, Well, a lot of times we try to be with and I've done. This is somebody who's good on paper. This would be a great idea, But if you don't feel it, you don't feel it literally exactly, and they should do oral, you know what I mean? Right, it doesn't feel like you love him anyway. You're trying to force it. You can't force it. Yeah, okay, you watch meet out here girl.

All right? Good luck, baby, thank you too? All right? I P five one oh five one. If you need advice, relationship advice to any type of advice, you we got rooms on the way. Yes, let's talk about some good news we'll talk about to Kimba Matimba, find out what he did for a young boy who is from Africa that had a tumor on his face. All right, we'll get into that next keeping lock. Just to Breakfast Club, good morning, I look love nobody else alive her? All right.

I wanted to listener to you, sir. I didn't have my headphones on yet one morning. Everybody is DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlomagne, the God Traf, and you're just having a fit of bage rage, you know what I'm saying. So it's whatever, man, I haven't had bage rage in a while. You were his light skin vy. He putting filters on his Instagram stupid like he putting filters on his stuff to make himself doctor Bran No, I do report. We'll be talking about the Rock and Roll Hall of

Fame inductees. It's about this is the rumor report, Angela Yee on the Breakfast Club. But congratulations to Janet Jackson. She made it into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame for twenty nineteen. So that's dope. And this is also historic year because Stevie Nicks made it and she will she's made it in as a solo artist. She's the first one to be inducted, the first few artists to join the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame as second time. She was inducted with Fleetwood Mac as a

group and now as a solo artist as well. I understand how people complain about everything and they want things to evolve. The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame needs to evolve and should just be the Music Hall of Fame. But LLL COOLJ unfortunately did not make it. He was a nominee as well, and neither did Ucas featuring Shaka Khan dropping the clue's bombs for LLL COOLJ. And its

the fans that have to vote. So fans vote on the nominees they want to see, and the top five artists are made up of a fans ballot and all of that, so that's counted as a single vote for anybody can go vote. Um, I'm not sure what was fansy. I think anybody refusa we didn't vote for ll COOLJ. Yeah, people can actually get you to go and vote and be like, hey, vote for me, So that's how it happened. I just think it should be the Music Hall of Fame.

You're not gonna sit here tell me that ll COOLJ is not a whole legend any genre of music, you know. Any way, he's transcended through Hollywood, like, come on, man, he's definitely a Hall of Famer, regardless of what the hell the rock and Roll Hall of Fame is talking about. All right, into Bay. Matumbo has done something really great. He flew an eight year old boy from Africa with a large tumor on his face to La so he could get operated on by a team of American doctors.

Check it out. Sponsoring this young board from Congo who ever used to move first. He's going to be operating by dogfor or one osborn from bourbon Ville. So we brought him Europe from Oh wow, we are a bit excited. That's amazing, that's beautiful. Dropping include Bob Kimbye Matumbo, he wins, yeah. Andrew Martinez kind kind af challenge, Yes, all right, okay? And why does it sound like it hurts from the kimby Mutumbo to talk? His voice always sounded like Jesus Christ.

He talks all right. Oprah Renfree has talked about her mother's recent passing. She talked to people magazine, and she talks about her final days with her mom. Here is what she had to say about saying her final goodbyes. I knew my mother was dying, and I sat with my mother and I said, UM, I don't know if you're gonna make it. Do you think you're going to make it? And she said I don't think I am.

And I had a conversation with her about what that felt like, and then I said to her, what a wonderful thing to be able to say goodbye because she's completely coherent. I stood in the doorway and I said goodbye, and I knew it was going to be the last time I said goodbye, although I didn't say to her, this is the last time I'm going to say goodbye. So I went and I spoke in Boston, and I

knew that. The next day, I had a bunch of meetings in California, and I canceled all of those meetings and I went back to Milwaukee because I felt like I had not closed it. I knew it was the end, but I wanted to make sure she knew it was the end, and that I said everything I wanted to say. Ooh, that's tough. All right. In addition, she told us what some of her final words were to her mom. And

what I said was thank you. As a young girl having a baby in Mississippi, no education, no training, no skills, seventeen, you get pregnant with this baby. Lots of people would have told you to give that baby away, lots of people would have told you to abort that baby. And you didn't do that. And I know that was hard, and I want you to know that no matter what, I know that you always did the best you knew how to do. Wow. I wouldn't even want to think

about final words like that, absolutely all right. Killer Mike has a Netflix show coming. It's called Trigger Warning. It's about examining cultural taboos and giving viewers the space to examine the what ifs and why not that limit how some people move and operate in the world. I can't wait Killing Abby six episodes. Yeah, so pretty exciting, and congratulations to him. It's going to be on Netflix January eighteen. I can't wait Killing Mike's been talking to me about
