Charlamagne Tha God
In 1969 when a young Ted Kennedy drove a car into a pond and.

Lauren LaRosa
It wasn't really vacation. It was still work, you know what I mean? But I enjoyed the holiday. Me and my family went up to Deep Creek, Maryland, and went to, like, a big villa. We had games, 4th of July. Then it was my husband's birthday, July 6th. That cancer man. Yeah. So we had fun. Just enjoyed it.

I love it.
Just Hilarious
How was Anguilla?
Charlamagne Tha God
Angua is Anguilla. Anguilla is amazing. That's my happy place. I'm gatekeeping. Angula keeping y' all out, I bet.
Lauren LaRosa
I ain't say nothing about nothing. That way I. I ain't say, wait, nothing.
Charlamagne Tha God
You know they got direct flights from Baltimore now. No, they don't. Yes, they do. How much you want? I'm not even joking.
Jess Hilarious
Well, not.
Just Hilarious
Not Tangua. You got to go to take a boat.
Charlamagne Tha God
Tangua. What, man? Look it up. You'll see when I tell you and when I said I'm. When you look it up and see, I'm tell you why. It happened, too.
Jess Hilarious
Really?
Charlamagne Tha God
Yes, yes. Miami, too. They got from Miami to Anguilla and then Baltimore angle. It's another city too. But I can't remember right now.
Just Hilarious
You gotta take the boat over.
Lauren LaRosa
That's what's up.
Charlamagne Tha God
Land right on right. Right in the axa.
Jess Hilarious
Really?
Charlamagne Tha God
Absolutely.
Jess Hilarious
Okay.
Lauren LaRosa
I know that's right. Anguilla.
Just Hilarious
Now salute to everybody.
Charlamagne Tha God
How long that's gonna last?
Just Hilarious
But it's happening now on them flights from Baltimore. Salute to everybody out in Vegas. I've seen everybody in Vegas this weekend. Had a great time in Vegas. And then I went to e festival Sunday. It wasn't as packed as usual, okay? The streets weren't flooded, the hotels weren't flooded, the restaurants weren't flooded.
Charlamagne Tha God
The club Times is hard.
Lauren LaRosa
I know.
Just Hilarious
And they have. And they had like, a huge lineup of artists. I mean, Patti LaBelle, Tanas, LL Cool J, Lauryn Hill, the Isley Brothers.
Charlamagne Tha God
Lauren Hill don't count.
Jess Hilarious
Glorilla.
Charlamagne Tha God
Lauryn Hill don't count. And I'mma tell you something else, man. We all got love for the miseducation of Lauryn Hill, but at some point, Lauryn Hill got to start having more respect for the fans, don't you think?
Just Hilarious
Well, I'm.
Charlamagne Tha God
Jeez.
Just Hilarious
But I don't know whose fault it was. They said it was partly the show because the show ran over, but 3:30.
Charlamagne Tha God
In the morning.
Just Hilarious
That was Friday show, I think I wasn't there Friday. But nobody's right. 3:30 in the morning, That's a lie. Come on. Come on.
Charlamagne Tha God
And I saw a lot of people, you know, I guess, online complaining about Essence Fest. The one thing I didn't see nobody talk about is the fact that times are hard. People don't have extra money for extra things.
Just Hilarious
Yeah, okay.
Charlamagne Tha God
Trust what I tell you.
Just Hilarious
Still had a good time, though. Seeing everybody I love. That's the. That's the most important thing is you get to see so many people and there's not too many events where. Where there's that lineup, that many things. They had podcasts, they had all types of engagements, and you don't really get to see that. So the fact that it dwindled out like that this year really upsets me because it's a time really. You can really. It's like a big family reunion.
Charlamagne Tha God
Still was mad people there, though.
Just Hilarious
There still a lot of people.
Charlamagne Tha God
Yeah.
Morgan
At certain things.
Lauren LaRosa
Yeah. At certain events.
Jess Hilarious
Yeah.
Lauren LaRosa
It was a lot of.
Charlamagne Tha God
I know. Mandy and Wheezy interviewed Candy Burris and they. They talked in front of 100,000 people.
Lauren LaRosa
It was 100,000 people at.
Charlamagne Tha God
That's what they said. I don't know.
Jess Hilarious
All right.
Just Hilarious
Yep. Well, let's get the show cracking.
Charlamagne Tha God
I don't know. That's what I saw. That's what I was. Mandy, no people saying that.
Lauren LaRosa
I don't know how to tell.
Just Hilarious
All right, well, let's get the show cracking now. We got front page news when we come back. A lot to discuss, so don't go anywhere. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. Morning, everybody. It's the EJ Envy. Just hilarious. Charlemagne the guy. We are the Breakfast Club. Let's get in some front page news now. Salute to Tyrese Halliburton. He will miss the entire 25 sixth season after surgery to repair his Achilles. So we knew that next year he'll.
Charlamagne Tha God
Be out next year. Damian Lillard will be out next year. Jason Tatum will be out next year. Kyrie will be out next.
Lauren LaRosa
All them toy Achilles.
Just Hilarious
Yeah.
Lauren LaRosa
Damn.
Just Hilarious
And they've been blaming it on low, low, low top sneakers. They were saying that a lot.
Lauren LaRosa
Everybody not doing the same thing. It got to be something.
Just Hilarious
Yes. A lot of the legends in the game saying they got to go back to wearing high top.
Charlamagne Tha God
I haven't heard the reason why, but I do want to know why people are tearing their Achilles easily.
Just Hilarious
All right. What's up, Morgan?
Jess Hilarious
Hey, y'.
Charlamagne Tha God
All.
Jess Hilarious
Hey.
Morgan
Happy Tuesday.
DJ Envy
How we feeling? Welcome back. Right?
Just Hilarious
That was your day.
DJ Envy
Welcome.
Morgan
Oh, it was so good. So good. I'm, I'm glad to be back, but, you know, it's. It's a little doom and gloom. So let's get into what's first on front page. So tragic news out of Texas while we were gone. Of course, the death toll continues to rise following catastrophic flooding. Over 100 people, including children, are reportedly confirmed dead across six counties in Texas. Kerr county officials reporting at least 56 adults, 28 children and 10 with 10 children and one adult still missing from that girls camp, Camp Mystic. Now officials said hundreds of responders are working search and rescue operations in the area. And Camp mystic also confirmed at least 27 campers and counselors died in that flooding. Now Texas Governor grab Abbott ensures the search and rescue and recovery efforts will continue. Let's take a listen to his comments.
Jess Hilarious
We continue 247 operations to search for anybody who was affected by that deadly storm.
Morgan
Yeah. So President Trump signed a major disaster declaration for Kerr county, and he said, well, he will likely visit Texas. On Friday, Trump was questioned about his plans to get rid of FEMA and whether the federal government needs to rehire previously fired meteorologists. And here's what he had to say to that. Let's take a listen to President Trump's comments.
Jess Hilarious
Well, FEMA is something we can talk about later, but right now they're busy.
Just Hilarious
Working, so we'll leave it at that.
Jess Hilarious
This was the thing that happened in seconds. Nobody expected it. Nobody saw it. Very talented people are there and they didn't see it. It's. I guess they said once in a.
Just Hilarious
Hundred years they've never seen anything like this.
Morgan
So White House press secretary Caroline Levitt, she also slammed some Democrats claiming recent cutbacks at the National Weather Service hindered warnings to people in the area. Levitt said the weather station in the area had extra staff in place before the storm. And anyone who uses this issue to score political points should be ashamed. Now, the press secretary also offered words of support to those impacted. Let's take a listen to her comments.
DJ Envy
Unfortunately, in the wake of this once in a generation natural disaster, we have seen many falsehoods pushed by Democrats such as Senator Chuck Schumer and some members of the media. Blaming President Trump for these floods is a depraved lie. Everyone here at the White House, including the President of the United States, is praying for the victims, families and friends during this unimaginable time.
Charlamagne Tha God
Oh, they always use these issues to score political points. When it was wildfires in California, you know, Trump and you know, Trump's cronies, they, they definitely slammed Governor Gavin Newsom and Mayor Karen Bass. So I don't know what she means by, you know, now isn't the time to use just to score political points because this is what they do. But man, what a horrible story. Yes, because when it's us versus Mother Nature, it's really nothing you can do but attempt to get out the way. All those kids passing away. I read a story about a father who got swept away with his kids because he refused to let them go when the floods came in. Like God.
Lauren LaRosa
Yeah, it was real sad.
Just Hilarious
So sad.
Morgan
Devastating news. But politics aside, the devastating Texas floods have impacted countless residents. Families have lost their homes, communities and lives have been shattered. And of course, like I said earlier, children are still missing. So the need is urgent. The Community foundation of Texas, Hill country country has launched the Kerr County Flood Relief Fund to support the response, relief and long term recovery efforts. All donations will go directly towards trusted and vetted local organizations to provide food, shelter, health care and hope. So you can join us today and donate to the Kerr County Flood relief fund@community foundation.net that's communityfoundation.net and of course that wraps up front page news for 6am I've got plenty more front page news at 7, so stick around when.
Charlamagne Tha God
It'S you versus mother nature like it's.
Just Hilarious
Nothing you can do.
Charlamagne Tha God
It's really nothing you can do but try to get out of the way.
Just Hilarious
So damn sad.
Charlamagne Tha God
Earthquakes, hurricanes, flash floods, blizzards. What are you supposed to do in those situations except break?
Just Hilarious
That's right. Well, everybody else, get it off your chest. 800-585-1051. If you need to vent, phone lines are wide open again. 800-585-1051. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning, the Breakfast Club.

Just Hilarious
I told you. You don't hear what I told you.
Charlamagne Tha God
It's people on our staff that took off two weeks. Yeah, I'm like, boy, y', all, what is going on? Ain't nobody tell us, give us the memo. We need to be on the same accord about these things.
Just Hilarious
Hello. Who's this with me right here?
Jess Hilarious
I'm Love.
Just Hilarious
What's up, man? What's your name, brother?
Jess Hilarious
What's up, man? My name is Peace. Peace.
Charlamagne Tha God
Peace King. How you doing, brother?
Just Hilarious
Get off your chest, brother.
Jess Hilarious
Yeah, so basically, I don't. Y' all spoke on Young Noble yet, but I just want to, you know.
Charlamagne Tha God
Throw, you know, he passed away Young Noble man. Absolutely. Rest in peace, Young. No, but we just got back, though. We just walk. He literally just got back from vacation.
Jess Hilarious
Yeah, no, I just don't want. So if anybody see the reason how he passed all that, I want people to be aware. He had a heart attack, like, not like a few years back. And the medication, you know, I mean, it's making him feel a little crazy. He just told yuckmost. Yuck spoke on this medication he was telling people, made him feel like he wanted to do that to himself, so he stopped taking it. So I don't know if that had a major impact on what happened happened. You know, he lost his mom last year. Mental health. And just so y' all know, Andy, you should know this, you know, I mean, them dudes got blackballed on park half. He didn't put out over 30 albums since 2000. Like, real albums you go in the store and buy.
Charlamagne Tha God
Yeah, I just saw. I saw a project he put out with Stick from Dead Prayer.
Jess Hilarious
Yeah, he got one with Stick. He got. He got a few with Crazy Bone. Him and Fatal. Put out an album, him and the Outlaws, or they put mad albums out, but, you know, they got Black ball sound crazy, you know what I mean? So I don't want people to think, oh, it's just the old outlaw passed away or something. Like, now you've been out here putting that work, man. The rest did a lot of work in me. He had a lot of fans, you know what I'm saying? So I just wanted to make that be clear, you know? I mean, shout out to young local. Rest in peace.
Just Hilarious
Absolutely. He young brother, too. 47 years old.
Charlamagne Tha God
47 years old, man. But, you know, like, mental. Mental illness is real. That's why I'm such a proponent of, you know, people doing, you know, the work on themselves, because that brother really, really, really was going through it. From what I was. From what I read, get it off your chest.
Just Hilarious
800-585-105. What? If you need to vent, hit us up now. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning, the Breakfast Club.

DJ Envy

Just Hilarious
Every time you pull up somewhere, somebody sends me a picture of you somewhere, no matter where you at. I seen videos of you at the pride parade. I see videos of you walking around talking about you ain't like the parade. Like, I see videos of you all the time.
Charlamagne Tha God
I'll be honest with you, Stacy. Ever since Envy said happy pride to you and you asked, why he asking you that? They just trying to prove you gay, Stacy.
Jess Hilarious
Oh, no, it's okay. They can prove whatever they want to prove.
Charlamagne Tha God

Who's this?
Jess Hilarious
Good morning. These anonymity Sepulia. Charming.
Just Hilarious
Get it off your chest. You all right?
Lauren LaRosa
You okay?
Jess Hilarious
Yeah. You can't hear me. Welcome back.
Charlamagne Tha God
Thank you, brother. What's up? What's up? What's going on?
Jess Hilarious
Hey, first of all, my condolences to the people of Texas. I wanna put that slide.
Charlamagne Tha God
Horrible, man.
Jess Hilarious
It's been a while. I want to vent from last week. Just the power manifestation, even though I don't like the guy. Trump. This man declared before the peace thing happened with Iran, that was going down, and it actually happened. And then this man said that on July 4, he's gonna sign that big, beautiful bill actually happen. Isn't that crazy?
Charlamagne Tha God
I mean, it is actually crazy to watch politicians do exactly what they said that they were going to do, even if it is going to hurt a lot of working class people.
Jess Hilarious
Yeah, Yeah. I don't like them. But that. That just taught me less than my power manifestation. I didn't go ahead and manifest some things right now.
Charlamagne Tha God
I don't know if that's manifest. I don't know if that's manifestation, though. I just think that that's a person in a position of power having the political will to do exactly what it is he said he was going to do and being able to push the right people in Congress to get it done. I don't know if that's manifestation as much as that's just power.
Jess Hilarious
Yeah, maybe I may be stretching a little bit. I'm go ahead and manifest some things right now for this. It's gonna be the last time I'm gonna do this. My girl, Jeff. I like the dances you've been doing. I'm manifesting. You had 12 hours to do that. Baltimore two step or I'm manifesting. You gotta get toss over that Birkin bag from Shannon Sharp.
Lauren LaRosa
No, no, no.
Jess Hilarious
He didn't do a deal because you're not doing it. We got to do a deal.
Charlamagne Tha God
Shannon shall give you a Birkin bag.
Lauren LaRosa
No, he did not. Let's not start that. No, he did not.
Just Hilarious
I.
DJ Envy
He.
Jess Hilarious
No, he spoke about it.
Lauren LaRosa
I spoke about. He was interviewing me, asking me about, like things that I own and stuff like that. He did not give me that. But he want. He want the one I was talking about. But no, no, I'm gonna just do the two step, yo. I just. I'd just be forgetting. I don't be just crackhead.
Jess Hilarious
I got two kids, some accountability. You don't need like five dances already. You need some accountability. What's the deal then?
Lauren LaRosa
I'm sorry. It's coming. Yo, it's coming.
Just Hilarious
Have a good one, brother. Get it off your chest. 800-585-1051. What's up, Lauren?
DJ Envy
Good morning, y'.
Jess Hilarious
All.
Lauren LaRosa
Hey, girl.
Just Hilarious
What are you gonna do now that the court is over?
DJ Envy
Well, I've listen today I have to go back. We find. Because we find out today what Diddy's going to be sentenced. They've been trying to. It's supposed to be October 3rd, but they're trying to get it pushed to be sooner. So they have a short conversation today. And I will be there for the conversation.
Charlamagne Tha God
Y' all just like being there.
Lauren LaRosa
I was ready to say at this.
Charlamagne Tha God
Point, she just wants all them freaking crazy ass people. I don't think.
DJ Envy
I don't think it's going to be as crazy today because people don't. You got to really pay attention to something like this.
Just Hilarious
They're gonna be there. They're gonna hear you. They're gonna be there. They can dress right now. Oh, all right. Well, we'll get into it next. When we come back, it's the Breakfast Club. Good morning, the Breakfast Club. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy. Just hilarious. Charlamagne, the guy. We are the Breakfast Club. Let's get to the latest with Lauren.
Lauren LaRosa
Lauren becoming a straight fat.
Just Hilarious
She gets them from somebody that knows somebody.
Charlamagne Tha God
She gets the details.
DJ Envy
I'm the homegirl that knows a little bit about everything.
Charlamagne Tha God
She be having the latest on this. The Latest with Lauren LaRosa. Sometimes she has facts, sometimes you have details. Sometimes she have a little bit of everything. What was the latest on the Breakfast Club? Talk to me.
DJ Envy
Well, guys, it's been a while since we've been here. And since then, Diddy was found not guilty of the racketeering, sex trafficking, racketeering, insect trafficking charges and found guilty of the man act charges, which are the charges. The prostitution charges. Now, after that happens, of course, people are like, well, he's gonna have to go to jail. Will he have to go to jail? What happened? So sentencing will happen today. They're having a conversation in court about when his sentencing will actually be. It was, it's supposed to October 3rd, but Diddy's team is asking for it to be expedited to happen as quickly as it can. The prosecution says that they're not going to fight, that they're okay with that. They just didn't want him to come home on bond until he got his sentencing, which the judge agreed with in court last week. So today we'll find out when he'll be sentenced and how soon that'll be. And that leans on the probation office. Like they have to put together like a sentencing report. And then however long that takes, we'll know when the that date to is going to be.
Just Hilarious
So his charges are prostitution charges, hiring a prostitute and transporting them across state lines are correct?
Charlamagne Tha God
Yeah, two of those.
DJ Envy
Yes, two of those. Two counts of those. Yep. So that's what he was found guilty of. And his attorney, Mark Agnilo spoke to AP News and he told AP News that when Diddy went back into jail, he got like a standing ovation from the other prisoners because he beat the federal government. And they saw, they said that they've never seen people be able to beat the government that way. And he also talked about Mark Agnil, Diddy's attorney. Attorney. Just the fact that they knew that Diddy was probably going to get off on the sex on the RICO because. I'm sorry, on the sec. On the rico because the sex trafficking. On the sex trafficking charges because how confused the jury was on the RICO because the charges are related. So people thought that Diddy because when they first said they were confused on that, those. That one count with the RICO.

DJ Envy
Diddy was visibly like emotional as I don't know what. And people thought that they knew something, we did it and that he was going to be guilty on all counts. But they're saying no. We knew when we were trying to tell him like yo, just hold on, this is looking good for me.
Jess Hilarious
For you.
Just Hilarious
Now the question. So for, for normal people who hire a prostitute and take more for across state lines, they usually get a fine or less than a year or community service. Correct?
Charlamagne Tha God
They do.
Just Hilarious
I'm asking.
Charlamagne Tha God
I don't know.
Just Hilarious
I think that's a basket.
DJ Envy
I think, I mean I don't know.
Just Hilarious
That's what they were saying that when I read it. They were saying when I read it. When I read it they said usually where people get arrested or they get charged for prostitution, they usually get a fine or they get community service or not jail time as a first time offender.
Lauren LaRosa
See, I don't know about that. I know prostitutes, I don't know prostitute collectors. Like I don't know the ones collectors or whatever that participated. Yeah, yeah, I know like the actual toots.
Charlamagne Tha God
I get what you say.
Just Hilarious
I totally understand.
DJ Envy
Well, I don't know the answer to that envy but I know that the prosecutors they were talking about up to 20 years but you know on the. Of course Diddy's team is like that's ridiculous.
Charlamagne Tha God
So that's what the charge carries.
DJ Envy
But he's the first time.
Charlamagne Tha God
Which sounds crazy to say, but he's a first time non violent offender either.
Just Hilarious
Correct.
DJ Envy
So they're saying at least a minimum of four years based on the sentence and guidelines. And you know. Yeah, at least all the way from.
Lauren LaRosa
20 because that's what they was asking for.
Just Hilarious
20.
Charlamagne Tha God
Right.
DJ Envy
Because whenever you talk about sentencing their charges, you know they have like a maximum and a minimum.
Charlamagne Tha God
By the way, four is a long time for a 55 year old man who's used to living the high life the way did he has.
Just Hilarious
Okay, yeah, he's been in there.
Charlamagne Tha God
Let's not act like that's like that. Four years isn't a. A long time.
Just Hilarious
Yeah, he's been in it, what, 10 months already?
DJ Envy
Yeah.
Lauren LaRosa
Yes.
Just Hilarious
But, but, but, you know, remember we were talking about it early? Remember O.J. went to jail. Not for the crime. He went to jail for stealing his memorabilia back, and he got 20 years for it.
DJ Envy
Well, what are you talking about?
Just Hilarious
Remember when. Because what I'm saying is, even though Diddy didn't get charged for the major crime, they can still plan him for OJ's crime.
Charlamagne Tha God
The stealing was a whole separate thing from.
Just Hilarious
Right, but he shouldn't have got 20 years for stealing, because most people who steal probably would have got a year for that. But he got 20 years because they wanted to stick it to OJ, so maybe they could possibly stick it to Diddy, even though he might like getting stuck. Welcome back. Welcome back.
Lauren LaRosa
He's still back. Like, his tapes and booty.
Charlamagne Tha God
Jokes ain't never stopping. I'm letting y' all know that right now.
Just Hilarious
And my last question, when Diddy comes out, what. What happens next?
Jess Hilarious
Next?
Lauren LaRosa
Yeah, what is he asking?
Just Hilarious
Like, does he do music? Does he sign the Black Effect and do a book? Does he do a podcast?
Lauren LaRosa
Yeah, exactly, guy. Because we did his last interview. So will he be his first?
Charlamagne Tha God
Here's the thing. I feel people. I fear people aren't going to learn a damn thing from this Diddy situation. Like, all the conversations I'm having sound so ass backwards. Like, you can blame the system, right? We can say the feds overcharged them. We could say he was railroaded. We could say it was a shakedown. This is the language that they're using. They're saying railroaded. They're saying it. Shakedown. But at what point are we going to have conversations about how he gave this system something to shake? Where's the conversations about accountability? Where's the conversations about discipline? Diddy made all this money, gave all these opportunities to people, created all these jobs, and it all burned down because of poor habits and lack of discipline. Drug use, violence towards women, sleeping with prostitutes. You can't move like that when you are a black man in the position of power that Diddy was in. And I hate when people say things like, like, well, white men get to do this all the time. Well, guess what? We not white, okay? We are black, and we can't and shouldn't want to move like corrupt white men do. But nobody wants to have that conversation about accountability and discipline.
Just Hilarious
And they enable us as well. Because he had to have people around.
DJ Envy
Them see how that Played out. I mean, not all of them, but most people got on the stand and got immunity. The only person had to answer for something is Diddy. So I don't even think that.
Charlamagne Tha God
That the only you are in control of is you when you are in that position of power, when you are a billionaire that's creating all these opportunities and creating all these jobs, you have to move better. We can blame enablers, you can blame the system and everything else, but you have to move.
Jess Hilarious
I agree.
Charlamagne Tha God
When are those conversations gonna happen?
DJ Envy
They should be y tired of seeing.
Charlamagne Tha God
You know, black men be put in these positions because of their own poor habits and discipline. The system is already. The system is already, already coming at us every day making up stuff. Why are we giving them anything?
DJ Envy
I agree. Especially when you see his kids sitting in court and just have to like the fact that he could have been facing up to life. I used to think about that every day. Like, these kids are sitting here and that's their dad at the end of the day.
Just Hilarious
That's right.
DJ Envy
But the judge tried to have that conversation, though, when the judge said their.
Charlamagne Tha God
Dad knew he had kids.
DJ Envy
Exactly.
Charlamagne Tha God
Their dad knew he had people that depend on him. You know what I'm saying?
Lauren LaRosa
Still his kids, though.
Charlamagne Tha God
Sure. So if, you know, you got kids, that's just all the more reason to move better. Yeah, we gotta move correctly.
Just Hilarious
You're right. But sometimes I think a lot of these celebrities or these people with a lot of money sometimes have the God syndrome and they feel like they are God and you can't beat them. And I got enough money that if it does, I can buy it away, and they realize that they can't.
DJ Envy
The judge is trying to humble and tame that bit because that's why he denied that bond. He said, no, these are all the things you did even after you knew that we were going to be sitting right here together. You want to stay where you at until we figure out the sentence.
Just Hilarious
All right.
Charlamagne Tha God
Well, actually, when you ask what did he should do, if. If he comes home, he should do the work on himself. That's what he should be doing. He should be going to do some deep, intense therapy. He needs to find God. That's what he needs to be doing. He shouldn't be worried about no career. He shouldn't be worried about trying to get back professionally. He should be focusing on his personal life. That's what he should be doing.
Just Hilarious
Well, let's. Let's discuss after front page news. We'll take your phone calls. 800-585-1051. I mean, we missed you guys last week.
Charlamagne Tha God
And.
Just Hilarious
And of course, Diddy was found guilty of two charges. Two charges were dropped. What are your thoughts? The conversation we just had about Diddy and him coming home and what happened and how he'd allowed. He allowed that to happen to him.
Charlamagne Tha God
Yes, he did that. He just did it to himself.
Just Hilarious
800-585-1051. Let's discuss three.
DJ Envy
Three. Char, you said two charges were dropped.
Just Hilarious
Oh, three charges were dropped.
DJ Envy
Yeah. Not guilty on three out of five.
Just Hilarious
Nah, three charges were dropped. We'll do it after Front page news, so don't go anywhere. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy. Just hilarious. Charlemagne, the guy. We are the Breakfast Club. Let's get back in some front page news. What up, Morgan?
Lauren LaRosa
Hey.
Morgan
Okay, so in international news, right, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, he is nominating President Trump for a Nobel Peace Prize. He announced the nomination at a dinner at the White House, saying Trump is pursuing peace and security in many lands, especially in the Middle East.
DJ Envy
He told the President he has sent.
Morgan
A letter to the Nobel Peace Committee and that he should win. President Trump accepted the nomination letter for the Nobel Peace Prize and thanked Benjamin Netanyahu. Let's take a listen to their exchange.
Jess Hilarious
I want to present to you, Mr. President, the letter I sent to the Nobel Prize Committee. It's nominating you for the peace prize.
Just Hilarious
Which is well deserved.
Jess Hilarious
Wow. Thank you very much.
Just Hilarious
Coming from you in particular, this is very meaningful.
Morgan
So at that same dinner, President Trump says the US Will be sending more weapons to Ukraine. And he elaborated on the type of weapons and why. Let's take a listen to those comments.
Jess Hilarious
We're going to send some more weapons. We have to. They have to be able to defend themselves. They're getting hit very hard now. Defensive weapons primarily, but they're getting hit very, very hard. So many people are dying in that man. Yes.
Morgan
So this comes after the administration had paused some weapons shipments to Ukraine over concerns the US Military stockpile was being depleted. As for the pause and weapons shipments, Trump said the US Needed to make more, or, excuse me, needed to make sure that we had enough for ourselves and here on the home front while we were away on vacation. President Trump did sign his big, beautiful bill into law on July 4, during a ceremony at the White House. He was joined by B2 bombers as well as F22 and F35 fighter jets that did a flyover. The president was also joined by those pilots and crews from the White Men Air Force Base. In Missouri who executed Operation Midnight Hammer on Iran's nuclear sites. Now, in a post on social media, Democratic Senator Chuck Schumer called the bill a betrayal of US Citizens. Now, meanwhile, Republican lawmakers are celebrating. In an interview with Fox News Sunday, House Speaker Mike Johnson said the bill will help the economy flourish, adding the legislation will deliver on the administration's American first agenda. Let's take a listen to Mike Johnson's comments.
Jess Hilarious
The average American, the typical American household will have $13,000 more in take home pay. This is a great thing for people.
Just Hilarious
Who go to work every day.
Jess Hilarious
They're going to feel that.
Morgan
So former Treasury Secretary Larry Summers, who's on the other side of the aisle as a Democrat, he slammed the bill while speaking to ABCs this week, saying it's a step in the wrong direction for the country. Let's take a listen to his comments.
Jess Hilarious
This is a shameful a by our Congress and by our president that is.
Charlamagne Tha God
Going to set our country back.
Morgan
So the legislation includes over $4 trillion in tax reductions with the which the administration claims will benefit working class Americans. Democrats believe the bill will cut necessary programs like snap, Medicaid and Medicare, leaving thousands of Americans vulnerable. So this is going to be a wait and see type of situation depending on where you are economically. I'm sure you're already starting to feel some of the impacts, but this is gonna be one of those wait and see type situations.
Charlamagne Tha God
Now this bill is gonna cut Medicaid and food assistance for up to 17 million Americans. Right? You see, Republicans and Democrats have spoken out against this bill. Some folks are calling it political suicide. And they say the GOP is gonna lose a bunch of seats in the midterms. But if the GOP doesn't seem to be concerned about that, then what does that tell y' all folks? Fight is probably already fixed when it comes to the midterm elections, you know, and 2000, 20, 28. So who, I mean, who knows? I just feel like, you know, if something is, you know, political suicide, if you're using that kind of language for a bill and you pass it anyway, then you know, something that the rest of us don't know or, you know, something that the rest of us do know and we just sitting around waiting for the inevitable to happen. Free and fair elections, my ass. We'll see in a couple of years, though.
Morgan
No, you're right about that. But before I go, I think it's one, I think it's very important to mention one more time about the devastating floods that have impacted those residents in Texas, of course, families lost their lives. Communities impacted and shattered children are still missing. And of course the need is urgent. The Community foundation of Texas Hill country. They launched the Kerr County Flood Relief Fund to support those impacted relief and long term recovery efforts. All donations will go to trusted local and vetted organization that provide food, shelter, healthcare and hope. And you can donate to the Kerr County Flood relief fund@communityfoundation.net that's community foundation.net if you just, you want to make sure you, you know, support those impacted because like you said, Charlamagne, you never know when it could be us. And what can you do when it's you versus Mother Nature?
Lauren LaRosa
So that's right.
Morgan
That's your front page news. I'm Morgan Wood. You can follow me on socials and for more news coverage, follow at Black Information Network, Download the free iHeartRadio app and visit us@binnews.com Thank y'.
Jess Hilarious
All.
Just Hilarious
And also, I just want to send a salute and send love to, to some of the major cities that had a lot of shootings. Fourth of July, I know Chicago, 55 people got shot. Six people died. I know in Philly, six dead. There was 35 hurt, 15 shootings. So I just want to send love to everybody in Philly.
Lauren LaRosa
Really sad because, yo, like you can literally go and see all of these shootouts online, which is crazy.
Just Hilarious
One on the ring, front door, right?
Lauren LaRosa
And it's so many. It looked like they was having a cookout and people just came up and they were shooting from the porch. On the porch, porch. It was so much, man. So prayers up for everybody.
Just Hilarious
Absolutely. All right. Thank you, Morgan.
Morgan
Thank y'.
Jess Hilarious
All.
Morgan
Have a good one.
Just Hilarious
Now. When we come back, let's open up the phone lines. Let's talk Diddy. 800-585-1051. Let's just, just opening up the phone lines, taking your calls. What's your thoughts? What you think? Let's discuss. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club.
Charlamagne Tha God
Maybe.
Just Hilarious
If y' all talking about about.
Charlamagne Tha God
It, you know we talking about it. It's topic time.
Just Hilarious
Call 800-585-1051 to join into the discussion.
Charlamagne Tha God
With the Breakfast Club.
Just Hilarious
Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy. Just hilarious. Charlemagne, the guy. We are the breakfast club. Lauren LaRosa is here as well. Now we were talking about Diddy in the first latest with Lauren. And you're actually going to court today.
DJ Envy
Yes. It's short, though. They're just trying to figure out when his incident is going to be.
Just Hilarious
All right. And now, for people that don't know, if you didn't hear, I mean, it was everywhere Diddy got. He was charged with five counts and three of them were dropped, Correct?
DJ Envy
Yeah.
Just Hilarious
Break down what the three charges that were dropped.
DJ Envy
So he, he was found not guilty on the racketeering charges, the sex trafficking charges, and he was found guilty on two counts of the man act with charges which are the, the prostitution charges.
Just Hilarious
So we're asking 800-585-1051. What are your thoughts? Let's start with you. Just. What, what was your thoughts when you heard everything that happened with.
Lauren LaRosa
I was like, yo, what? It's just crazy. You didn't know. One day you felt like he was gonna be, you know, it was like a toss up. You didn't know. You know what I mean? So I don't know. I just knew that he wasn't gonna be out. I knew that you couldn't hold that fourth of July party that you wanted to have for him. That's all I knew.
Just Hilarious
I did not want to have a fourth of July party.
Lauren LaRosa
I just was like, he not gonna walk out. But I really, I really don't even know how to feel about this. I mean, a lot of me really don't care. For real, to be honest with you. But yeah, that's it. Honestly.
Just Hilarious
See, I. I'm a little different. I do care, and I'm gonna tell you why now. So I do feel like the RICO charge, and I feel like it was a. A lot excessive, right. But I look at Diddy and what he did for culture and music and the amount of jobs that he created, I thought was a. As a black man, I thought what he did was amazing, right. He started a foundation where a lot of people wanted to be him for sure. But then I look at the other side of him and I'm like, like, you allow the drugs, the lifestyle and all this other stuff, beating women and, and, and having that quote, unquote, God complex get to your head where it damn near ruins your life. Yeah. Ruins your legacy. You know what I mean? And you know, we all make mistakes, but you never want to make a mistake like that where it threatens your life in jail, where you got. How many kids did he got? Six kids he missed, you know, his second, third is what, two year old's birthday. He missed his daughters going to the prom. He missed his daughter's graduation. You miss Christmas. Those are things you can't get back, you know, I mean, you can always make a dollar. You can always get certain things. But Those are the things that you can't get back. And then not only that, his lifestyle is put out there for his daughters to hear.
Lauren LaRosa
Yeah.
Just Hilarious
To see, you know, and it's like, what example do you want to set for your children when they hear or they see a video of Pops beating up a woman? You know, Pops, you know, like in semen. I'm just joking. But Pops doing the things that Pops is doing.
Lauren LaRosa
Yeah.
Just Hilarious
I mean, they have a lifestyle. And I just to want. Want when he does. When he does come home to. To. To make sure he works on himself. Now, we can't sit here and say, diddy's not gonna work. Diddy still got bills. We don't know how much money did he got or where his money is invested. He still got six, seven kids to take care of. But, yeah, I. I just wonder what happens next.
Lauren LaRosa
So that was the part that. That's what made me. Now I do care about his kids. That's the part, you know, especially his girls and things like that, you know, but that's what made me not care. The fact that the Cassie video and the fact that he has abused women and things like that, and he didn't do it once. He's done it time and time again. So it's like, when do you learn before your empire is crushed?
Charlamagne Tha God
And that's. That's my thoughts on it. Like, I fear people aren't going to learn a damn thing from this whole situation because I keep seeing people pointing fingers at the system. And yes, you can say, you know, the feds, you know, overcharged it, you know, but when people say things like it was a shakedown, I'm like, when are we going to have conversations about how Diddy gave this system something to shake? Okay? Where the conversations about accountability, where the conversations about discipline, Nobody's going to talk about the drill, drug use. Nobody's going to talk about the violence towards women. Nobody's going to talk about the sleeping with prostitutes. We just gonna act like all of this is normal. Diddy made all of this money, created all of these opportunities for people, created all these jobs, and it burned down because of his poor habits and lack of discipline. And I cannot stand when somebody says to me, well, white men get away with this stuff all the time. We not white business owners, all of us black business owners. Anybody out there that's black in a position of power, you need to put that at the top of your mission statement. I am not white. I am not a white man. I cannot move the way that they move in Fact, you got to move a hundred times better. You got to be more focused. You just got to. You got to have more discipline. Diddy did not have any of that, and I don't know why we're not having that conversation.
Just Hilarious
But we also got. We also got to pull the curtain back, too.
Jess Hilarious
Right?
Lauren LaRosa
Right.
Just Hilarious
Because a lot of the stuff that Diddy did or people think is cool and. And. And we'll be honest. You can't tell me that you haven't heard a group of dudes say, I'm going to doctor. I'm going to Columbia. I'm doing this. I'm like, it happens all the time. You're lying.
DJ Envy
I've heard.
Jess Hilarious
You never heard.
Charlamagne Tha God
I don't know nobody doing that.
DJ Envy
But at the end of the day, I literally used to be sitting there like, but you're Diddy. Like, do you not understand? Like, we're.
Just Hilarious
I'm listening to voice messages.
Charlamagne Tha God
We having these conversations because everybody thinks tricking and prostitution is the same thing. Like, I see. I see people saying things like, I'm not flying out no girls no more. Nobody said anything about flying out girls. He was flying out prostitutes.
Just Hilarious
Correct.
Charlamagne Tha God
It's a difference.
DJ Envy
Well, that's because they tried to make it seem like the two girlfriends, Jane Doe and Cassie, they tried to add that into the whole, like, with the.
Charlamagne Tha God
I didn't see that. I just saw him flying in the middle.
DJ Envy
They tried to. The government tried that. Yeah. But I. I just think, regardless what.
Charlamagne Tha God
He was picking the penises that you told. You reported that he was lining the men up and he was picking the penises, saying, I need somebody to pound. I need somebody to line them up. Yes.
DJ Envy
That's d. He was picking them.
Charlamagne Tha God
And he would be like, that's a Quarter Pounder. That's a Big Mac. That's a chicken nugget. I don't want that.
DJ Envy
I run down the McDonald's menu. I did not.
Charlamagne Tha God
See. That's why.
Just Hilarious
That's why we can't take nothing serious.
DJ Envy
I never said that.
Charlamagne Tha God
I am serious about the accountability portion. I don't want to hear any conversations about anything. By the way, you can have conversations about whatever you want to have. I'm just simply saying, at what point are we going to have a conversation about. About people. One individual. You looking in the mirror, holding yourself accountable and having the discipline. Marvette Brittle always says, salute to Marvette Brittle. My good sister, Marvette Brittle. She always said that your talent will take you where your character can't sustain you. How many more people do we want to see crash and burn because they got piss poor character.
Jess Hilarious
Hello?
Just Hilarious
Who's this?
Jess Hilarious
Hi, this is Brittany.
Just Hilarious
Hey, Brittany. Good morning. What's your thoughts, Brittany?
Jess Hilarious
You know, I just wanted to say that I completely agree with everything that Charlamagne was saying about taking personal accountability for our actions. There was a lot of conversation in the room about the enablers and his children have to witness all of that. And everything that Charlamagne kept coming back was right on point. He knew all of that. When he engaged in these actions, he knew they were wrong. Despite what everybody around him was doing, he had a personal choice to participate. So therefore I think he should be held accountable for his actions. We got to stop making excuses for bad behavior here. Thank you, Britney.
Just Hilarious
Hello? Who's this?
Jess Hilarious
Michelle.
Just Hilarious
Hey, Michelle. Good morning. What's your thoughts?
Jess Hilarious
You know what, I just didn't. I think they're doing Diddy wrong. I know he's the freak. I know he does some real foul stuff and you know, with Kathy, whatever, but if this was a regular person on the street for domestic violence, they would get a year probation, you know, fine and be on their way. They're trying to ruin that man and I think they wrong and they need to treat him like a regular citizen and give him the what the guidelines say for no. He had no previous convictions. I'm from Columbus, Georgia. Kim Porter. That's my home girl. We love Danny, man. He brought the whole country to the city when she passed. He's a real one. He got some issues. But they're trying to ruin that man. They need to get off him. Get up, get up off him and give him what he deserved, which is he a first time offender. And then they need to go by the guidelines and not trying to railroad that man, man. That's my thought.
Charlamagne Tha God
And listen, I can't even sit here and say that she's wrong. But at what point did you say Diddy ruined himself?
Just Hilarious
No, he did ruin himself.
Charlamagne Tha God
At what point do we stop saying this man got railroad? Listen, all of that can be true. He got railroaded. It was a shakedown, but God damn, how much did he give people to shake?
Just Hilarious
Yeah, he allowed it to happen.
DJ Envy
I feel like with us, we saw you having a conversation about the man versus the government that nobody wants to. People are not focused on that they focused on. But the government shouldn't have been able to because they did so much in the beginning and then it all resulted in these prostitution charges. That's what the issue is. It's like people don't. It's not. They don't care. But they want to focus on us versus the government. That's the conversation.
Jess Hilarious
We always.
Charlamagne Tha God
When you black in this country, it's always going to be you versus the government. So don't give the government any ammo.
Just Hilarious
No, I get what you're saying, but I also understand what Lauren is saying. It's not the fact that he got charged. It's the fact that what they did, they raided all his houses. They came on. They came in helicopters, they came by sea.
Charlamagne Tha God
You know, kids and cubs, you know.
Just Hilarious
They took all the baby oil out in the astronauts.
Jess Hilarious
And you.
Charlamagne Tha God
That's what you missed the most.
Jess Hilarious
You couldn't.
Charlamagne Tha God
You couldn't find no Astro Glide for months. You know why? You know why they did all that? Because he's black and he knew he was black. So why was he moving like he wasn't? Like, we can't have conversations about black excellent excellence and make excuses for the bad behavior that is ruining black excellence.
Just Hilarious
Now, if you don't know, Diddy had what, five major charges? Three of them were dropped. Yes, three of them would drop. He had the prostitution charge, which was hiring a prostitute and transporting him across state lines. Correct.
DJ Envy
Two counts of that.
Just Hilarious
Two counts of that. So we're asking 800-585-1051. What are your thoughts? We got Brandon on the line. Brandon, good morning.
Jess Hilarious
Good morning. Good morning.
Just Hilarious
What's.
Charlamagne Tha God
Morning, Brandon?
Jess Hilarious
How y' all doing?
Just Hilarious
Good, brother. What's your.
Jess Hilarious
You know, I feel it was wrong, but. And at the same time, other people get away. Get away with things far more worse. And I'm gonna say like this, it's a time right now to reflect, accept responsibility and hold yourself. He had to hold himself accountable. I just came out of this system. So, you know, when he go in there, it's not. It's when he got a sentencing guideline. So he's not gonna get much time because he got low points. So he gonna get. If he get four years, he can take the RDAP program, which is going to knock time off. He get halfway house. He'll be home in a year and some change. You know what I'm saying? But at the same time, it's time to pray, time to reflect and accept responsibility. Because that's what them people gonna ask him when he go to sentencing. They say, do you accept responsibility for what you've done? He said yes. They give him three points, which is a downward departure, which knocks time off. So if he accepts responsibility for what he did, he can move forward and Reflect on what he did, and he has to hold himself accountable. Let me say one more thing. Go ahead, Myrna. Envy.
Just Hilarious
Yes, sir.
Jess Hilarious
Brother. We go way back, brother. Since derby run. I used to come to your career with you, Mel and Sean. My brother Travis used to mess with Nicole Ray. So. Yeah. So I just want to say what's up to you. We'll be at your car show, brother.
Just Hilarious
All right. Can't wait to see you.
Jess Hilarious
Yes, sir.
Just Hilarious
Be safe. I. I also want to say is. Is another thing is Diddy has a problem. Right. It seems like he's addicted to drugs. Right.
DJ Envy
And he has a sex addiction, in my opinion.
Just Hilarious
Yeah, it seems like he has a sex addiction as well. He has to get those.
DJ Envy
He was waiting on the feds in the hotel and there were every. Everything that we'd heard described as a. As the freak off materials were in the hotel. There's a.
Charlamagne Tha God
And the violence to like, all of that is projection. Like, clearly this man has a problem. And that's why I keep saying over and over, I feel like people aren't going to learn a damn thing from this Diddy situation because I'm not hearing enough conversations about that. Where is the account of accountability?
Jess Hilarious
Yeah.
Just Hilarious
Even if he gets no time, that's. He, like, he needs help on the drugs, he needs help on the. The sex addiction. He needs help on those things because obviously it's a situation.
Charlamagne Tha God
That's what I'm saying. We. We shouldn't even be having no conversations about what is Diddy going to do when he comes home. I don't care what this man does professionally. I care about what this man should be doing personally in his own life. He need to be out there going to get help.
Lauren LaRosa
But there's millions of people that think like, like, you know what you said, like the mogul, who he is and who he's been to, people all these decades, like, they can't see past Diddy and, you know, his power and his celebrity that they just like that lady called, like, she, like, man, he talk about. She was talking about the good things that he's done and, you know.
Just Hilarious
He'S helped a lot of people. And the only reason I always say is because I always. What I realized in this industry and with people, you can't count nobody's money, you can't count nobody's check. You don't know what somebody's lifestyle is or what it does. So in my opinion, he's gonna have to work. Right. You know, I mean, his work is different than I work. His bills Is way different than our bills.
Charlamagne Tha God
But who's gonna work with it?
Just Hilarious
But that's. That's my point.
Lauren LaRosa
Somebody that'll work.
Charlamagne Tha God
Zeus network, maybe. Zeus network Lamel looked just like him.
Just Hilarious
I seen Zeus out in Vegas. They were shooting a show with. With Jocelyn.
Lauren LaRosa
I seen Jo, and they just dropped the movie. Freeman in the mov, man.
Just Hilarious
Yeah, you never know, but you know. Hello? Who's this?
Jess Hilarious
It's your boy Vic from Miami.
Just Hilarious
Vic from Miami. What's up? Talk to us. What's your thoughts, brother?
Jess Hilarious
What's up? What's up with y', all, man? Good morning, everybody. I hear y' all saying y' all wonder what Diddy gonna be doing, man, when he get out. Diddy already putting the plan together. Y' all know he a businessman, man. When did he get out?
Charlamagne Tha God
Did he come out with the only.
Jess Hilarious
Fans, man, he gonna make more money than he did before.
Just Hilarious
These people don't take I'm.
Lauren LaRosa
And people are gonna pay. That's the reality of the situation.
Just Hilarious
Hello? Who's this?
Jess Hilarious
How's it going? Breakfast Club, man. What's going on?
Just Hilarious
What's up, brother? What's your thoughts on the Diddy situation?
Jess Hilarious
Free Diddy. Free did he. Till it's backwards, man. Let that man come home. He beat the rico. Yes, he got charges against him still, but that should be light enough for him to go to home to his family.
Charlamagne Tha God
Okay.
Just Hilarious
Okay, thank you. Hello, who's this?
Jess Hilarious
Good morning. This is Princess calling from NYC. Yes, I agree 100% with what Charlemagne said. Diddy is a very sick individual. Now it was time for Cassie to kick him when he was down and stopped him from getting bond. And let him stay there until he gets the help that he needs. And he better hope that his daughters, his four daughters don't get involved. And the same stuff that he did to Cassie is done to his four daughters.
Just Hilarious
Okay, all right, all right. Well, what's the moral of the story?
Charlamagne Tha God
The moral of the story for me is making excuses for bad behavior is not black excellence. You know, Diddy should come home and then go away way. Go do the work on yourself. Therapy, drug rehab, get closer to God. We know the system railroads black men. We know the system shakes down black men. So why do we constantly give them things to.
Just Hilarious
Hey, what up, y'?
Charlamagne Tha God
All?
Lauren LaRosa
It's DJ Envy.

Jess Hilarious
So what happened at Chappaquiddick?
Just Hilarious
Well, it really depends on who you talk to. There are many versions of what happened.
Charlamagne Tha God
In 1969 when a young 10, Ted.
Just Hilarious
Kennedy, drove a car into a pond.
DJ Envy
And left a woman behind to drown.
Just Hilarious
There's a famous headline, I think, in.
DJ Envy
The New York Daily News. It's teddy escapes, blonde drowns. And in a strange way, right, that sort of tells you the story really became about Ted's political future, Ted's political hopes.
Just Hilarious
Will Ted become president?
Charlamagne Tha God
Kappaquiddick is a story of a tragic death and how the Kennedy machine took control. And he's not the only Kennedy to survive a scandal.
Just Hilarious
The Kennedys have lived through disgrace, affairs.
Charlamagne Tha God
Violence, you name it. So is there a curse?
Just Hilarious
Every week we go behind the headlines.
Charlamagne Tha God
And beyond the drama of America's royal family.
DJ Envy
Listen to United States of Kennedy on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcast, or wherever you get your podcast.
Charlamagne Tha God
Shake. We have to move a hundred times more responsibly. We have to be 100 times more focused. Diddy wasn't, and that's why he's in this situation. And he may have beat the reason, Rico, but you can't beat God, okay? You cannot beat God. So, you know, we can sit around and have all of these conversations about, you know, the system and the feds overcharging him. All of that may be true, but at what point are we gonna have conversations about how he gave this system something to shake? I agree. At what point? Where's the personal responsibility?
Just Hilarious
No, I agree. I think Diddy should. Should get help on himself. And I would love to hear a comeback story of somebody that's changed, changed within themselves and honestly truly changed.
Lauren LaRosa
Because anybody can change. Everybody can.
Charlamagne Tha God
The drug use, the violence towards women. Like, we gonna really act like we. We really didn't see what we just saw.
Just Hilarious
Now you're right.
Charlamagne Tha God
Like, come on, y'.
Jess Hilarious
All.
Charlamagne Tha God
Hey, come on, man.
Jess Hilarious
You're right.
Just Hilarious
All right, well, we got the latest for Lauren coming up. What are we talking about, Lauren?
DJ Envy
We do.
Lauren LaRosa
We're gonna.
DJ Envy
We're gonna lift the spirits a Little bit talk about some good things when it comes to black men. Because over the break as well, Jay Z put in a bid. You know, he's been trying to do the casino here in New York. Nas is also helping to expand expansion plans on the casino in Queens. So we're gonna talk about like what these black men are doing here in New York City and how big that is. And then we got some other good stuff.
Just Hilarious
All right, we'll get into that next. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy. Just hilarious. Charlamagne, the guy. We are the Breakfast Club. Let's get to the latest with Lauren.
Lauren LaRosa
Lauren becoming a straight face.
Charlamagne Tha God
She gets them from somebody that knows somebody. She gets the details.
DJ Envy
I'm the homegirl that knows a little bit about everything.
Charlamagne Tha God
She be having the latest on this.
Just Hilarious
The Latest with Lauren LaRosa.
Charlamagne Tha God
Sometimes you have facts, sometimes you have details. Sometimes she have a little bit of everything. Well, it's the latest on the Breakfast Club.
DJ Envy
So I want to give a congratulations to Nas and Jay Z. So separately, Nas right now is working with Resorts World New York City. They submitted a $5.5 billion bid to the New York State Gaming Commission to build a world class resort casino in southeast Queens. Nas posted a video on his Instagram where you see him walking through and he opens up his briefcase and there's like a licensing contract that he signs and he's talking about it's time to invest in us because he is going to help with the expansion of that casino when it gets to Queens.
Charlamagne Tha God
Phenomenal video.
DJ Envy
Yeah, it's an amazing video to see, you know, Jay Z, at the same time, we've been having conversations about him and what he's doing in the casino business. They're putting his bids in for what they're bringing here to Times Square as well, along with S.L. green and Caesar's Entertainment. That will be. That'll be a big deal as well. Him and Roc Nation are doing that as well.
Charlamagne Tha God
So, yes, Rock is Roc Nation and SL Green and Nas is with Resorts World New York City, I believe.
Just Hilarious
Yes, I see Nas this weekend performing at Essence. He killed it. So salute to Nas Queen get the money.
Charlamagne Tha God
That's what it's three licenses, I think, being awarded. Why can't Nas get his and Queens and Jay get his in Times Square?
Lauren LaRosa
I don't know.
Just Hilarious
I'm sure they could, but I think there's a bunch of people trying to get the license. So it's not just them too. I think it's like six People.
Charlamagne Tha God
Well, some people dropped out. There's no. Yeah, some one. One big company dropped out. I forgot. I can't remember the name.
Just Hilarious
So it'd be dope if they. If what? Gets me to one of the city. That'd be great.
Lauren LaRosa
That is amazing.
DJ Envy
Yes, congratulations to them. I was trying to see how the licensing like breakdown worked, but I don't know the answer to that. But I think it's just dope to hear them in conversation for these things right now.
Charlamagne Tha God
And Times Square is needed. Time Square needs it. I don't care what y' all say.
DJ Envy
A lot of people don't believe that though.
Charlamagne Tha God
Well, I don't believe those people. What, what other, what other bright idea they got?
DJ Envy
I don't know, but I'm just. I've seen people push back against it.
Charlamagne Tha God
Well, what else are you going to do to revitalize Times Square? Times Square got Broadway and what else?
Just Hilarious
And them characters that be outside dressed up that be taking pictures.
DJ Envy
The roasted peanuts.
Charlamagne Tha God
Probably some download prostitution. Okay. It might be the people in the suits. I'm go out there and give them all $50 and see what he take you at.
Just Hilarious
See, take. See if he punish you. All right, guys, Sorry.
DJ Envy
Well, in other New York City news, our girl Cardi B. Oh boy. Yes, it is a old boy because over the weekend she scrubbed her Instagram clean of all of the photos with her and Stefan Diggs. So now reports are that there may be trouble in paradise. I have reached out to Cardi B's team trying to figure out what this means and I have not heard back yet. But normally when this happens, there is something going on. So of course the fans grab that and they're trying to break down and digest what is happening. Stefan Diggs, however, does still have the photos up on his, his Instagram of, you know, the swipe throughs with Cardi. There's been, you know, back and forth online. There was a, a young woman who got online and you know, apologized for some things. We have the audio of that. Let's take a listen to the audio. I just want to apologize for video that was posted because I don't want it to continue to insinuate a story that is untrue. I don't really use tick tock like that. I'm not really used to the app for real. But nonetheless, I'm not connected to anybody in a relationship relationship nor do I have any prior history with anybody in a relationship, nor was I there at the house for somebody in a relationship. So any stories based on these Allegations are absolutely false, and I hope nobody has to be tied to these false pretenses. So what she's talking about this young lady there. There's a allegation right now that there was a photo taken in a house that may belong to Stefan Diggs. So they're trying to link this woman with him. And after all of this linking was happening online, Cardi B then removed the photo, so people think that one connects to the other. But again, I've reached out, trying to confirm and don't know what is what as of right now, but, yeah, there's that. And then offset got unnecessary shots in this, too. People were trying to say that he was posting, celebrating, and he had to clarify that he was not. He was celebrating his music. But I. Yeah, he, like.
Lauren LaRosa
He was celebrating, like, right after this news dropped.
DJ Envy
Well, he was just online. Online playing his music. He was at a pool. And it's, you know, it's the holiday weekend, so people like, oh, he's celebrating. He's like, I'm celebrating my music. Like, I don't even know what's happening.
Lauren LaRosa
I ain't going hold you. I was playing Bodies, the whole fourth.
Charlamagne Tha God
Body so Fire.
Lauren LaRosa
Raisy.
Charlamagne Tha God
Yeah, Body so Fire.
DJ Envy
Yeah, he's celebrating the. The music doing well.
Charlamagne Tha God
It feel like the bag ain't get dropped behind Bodies yet, though.
DJ Envy
Not like it should. It's not moving, especially over.
Lauren LaRosa
I tell you what, I think it will be outside that I've been hearing record. I've been hearing that record. Yeah, Outside, like, outside is like the summer anthem.
Just Hilarious
Yeah. Outside been rocking in the clubs. But Bodies is dope, definitely. Body's really dope.
DJ Envy
Well, in other celebrity relationship news, our girl Keisha Cole, remember she was up here talking about the tattoo she had.
Lauren LaRosa
Oh, two weeks ago.
DJ Envy
Yes. So she had a tattoo of. From rap artist Honcho. And she talked about not being ready to remove it, but she has. Let's take a listen to hear her here on the Breakfast Club.
Lauren LaRosa
Are you single?
DJ Envy
Yes.
Lauren LaRosa
Or is it complicated? No, it's not complicated at all. It's very much given.
Morgan
Single.
DJ Envy
Are you dating?
Lauren LaRosa
I. I take compliments elements. But am I ready to move on?
DJ Envy
No, I still got the tattoo here, so I can't, like, I feel like until when I.
Lauren LaRosa
If I. I don't know.
Just Hilarious
You love fast, though, and hard.
Lauren LaRosa
Wow, that's really.
Just Hilarious
I've seen you and you. You seem like you're in love fast, like you love love.
DJ Envy
There's nothing wrong. I think he means, like, you. You're. You're locked into the love like you're loyal to y' all.
Charlamagne Tha God
Don't know how long she known these people.
Just Hilarious
Ain't nothing wrong with that.
Lauren LaRosa
Damn.
Just Hilarious
Lauren had my back. I was frying me.
DJ Envy
No, that wasn't a stray.
Lauren LaRosa
You.
DJ Envy
You did that? It was. I know what you meant, but it sounded crazy on his face.
Lauren LaRosa
You look fast.
DJ Envy
Yeah.
Jess Hilarious
But.
DJ Envy
There was a video of Keisha Cole getting a tattoo removed. And I actually reached out to Keisha Cole and spoke to her briefly on like, why she decided to now get it removed. Cuz she said she wasn't tripping off of it. And what she wrote back to me was that, you know, she says that honcho has kids coming or like, he's, I guess, building a family at this point, she wants to, you know, she doesn't want to be in the way of that. So all is well that ends well. And I think, you know, it just means she's. I mean, she'd already moved on, but this is just, I guess the last piece of that, so. Yep.
Lauren LaRosa
You have a whole family.
DJ Envy
I don't know if it's a whole family. I don't know if it's a half. I just know what.
Lauren LaRosa
Yeah.
Just Hilarious
So she hit you back and said.
DJ Envy
Said that? Yes.
Just Hilarious
Damn.
Lauren LaRosa
Well, hey, to get it deleted, y' all saw.
DJ Envy
Go ahead.
Charlamagne Tha God
I'm still thinking about Jay Z and Nas both being part of bids to get casinos in New York City. Do you know how big that is? TR include bomb.
Lauren LaRosa
That is amazing. That's really brilliant.
DJ Envy
I don't think people understand cuz they so rich and they be doing so much stuff. I don't think people get it.
Charlamagne Tha God
Like, they both submitted requests for proposals for something like that on the same. Well, everybody had to do it on the same day. But that's. That's the architect of Reasonable Doubt and Ill Master and they're both part of bids to get casinos in their hometowns in New York City.
Just Hilarious
Just think about it. They both came from the hood. Nas from Queensbridge and Jay from Marcy. And what they did with their music catalogs and how they turned it to big business with investments, Nas with Uber.
Charlamagne Tha God
And Ring who dating who was cute and who getting tattoos.
Just Hilarious
Cute, but God damn the liquor brands, rock music.
Lauren LaRosa
All of it is nice, though. All of it. And this is great.
Just Hilarious
And where they are now in life.
Lauren LaRosa
It'S gonna be real, real great. Even greater for New York. This is amazing.
Charlamagne Tha God
I love it.
Just Hilarious
No scandals around them. Just two good brothers. I love it, man.
Lauren LaRosa
Yeah, I like. I liked all the news this hour, though. I I thought it was a nice little mixture of everything.
Just Hilarious
All right.
Lauren LaRosa
Yes.
Just Hilarious
Well, that is the latest for Laura.
Jess Hilarious
Sh.
Just Hilarious
Man. Who you give that donkey too?
Charlamagne Tha God
Man? Let's talk conspiracy theories. Epstein list. Is it or ain't it?
DJ Envy
They said it ain't.
Charlamagne Tha God
Is it? Or anal ruining teases. You know? You know what if not your fault? That's why you need to have Ed check meetings, okay? It's not your fault. It's the consultant fault, the program director, for not having those conversations with you. Okay?
DJ Envy
I thought you really didn't know. My bad.
Just Hilarious
Serious.
Charlamagne Tha God
It's the Breakfast Club. We'll be back. Made it. This is a miracle.
DJ Envy
There is no question that there are problems in this country between police and community.
Just Hilarious
Yes, you are a donkey.
Charlamagne Tha God
The latest on that police killing of a black man.
Jess Hilarious
Now to new developments in the deadly spa shooting rampage. And yesterday was a really bad day for him. And this is what he did.
DJ Envy
And so we are in a state of emergency.
Charlamagne Tha God
Okay? White supremacist violence is and always has been the number one threat to our society.
Jess Hilarious
But I'm also very proud that my wife is white.
Charlamagne Tha God
That's a Breakfast Club, bitches.
Jess Hilarious
All right, Charlene, please tell me, why was I your donkey of the day?
Charlamagne Tha God
Yes. Donkey of the day for Tuesday, July 8, goes to the Department of Justice and the FBI for releasing yesterday that they have no evidence. Evidence that convicted sex offender and disgraced financier Jeffrey Epstein had a client list. Okay? Not to mention that he did indeed die by suicide. Now, I'm not about to sit here and argue with you about whether or not Epstein was killed or died by suicide. I truly have no idea. But the reason the DOJ and the FBI are getting donkey today is because they put out a statement that concluded they have no evidence that convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein kept a client list and no evidence that he blackmailed powerful figures. Vegas. Let's go to ABC News for the report. Please. Overnight, the FBI and Justice Department releasing 11 hours of footage they say helps confirm notorious financier Jeffrey Epstein died by suicide in his Manhattan jail cell in 2019 awaiting his sex trafficking trial. But perhaps the biggest bombshell. Investigators say they found no incriminating client list of Epstein's, no credible evidence that Epstein blackmailed prominent individuals, and no evidence that could predicate an investigation against uncharged third party parties. For years, Epstein has been at the center of conspiracies surrounding both his death and a rumored client list allegedly used to blackmail powerful men. And just last month, while feuding with President Trump, Elon Musk Posting time to drop the really big bomb at real. Donald Trump is in the Epstein files. That is the real reason they have not been made public. Have a nice day, Donald J. Trump. But Musk later deleted that post and others saying he went too far in attacking Trump. The President saying he cut ties with Epstein nearly two decades ago. Saying even Epstein's lawyer cleared feared him. You know what? I'm going to dismiss the blackmailing a powerful figure statement just like I dismissed the did he get killed or die by suicide combo because I can't prove either one of those things. But the client list, the only reason I know or thought I knew it was a client list is because y' all told us there was a client list. Okay. Pam Bondi, the Attorney General, said back in February on Fox News that an alleged client list was sitting on her daughter desk and would soon be released. Do we have that audio? The DOJ may be releasing the list of Jeffrey Epstein's clients. Will that really happen?
DJ Envy
It's sitting on my desk right now to review. That's been a directive by President Trump. I'm reviewing that. I'm reviewing JFK files, MLK files. That's all in the process of being reviewed because that was done at the directive of the President from all of these agencies.
Jess Hilarious
So.
Just Hilarious
So have you seen any, anything that you said?
Charlamagne Tha God
Oh, my gosh, not yet.
Just Hilarious
Okay, well, we'll check back with you.
Charlamagne Tha God
I was Attorney General Pam Bondi, she said she had been been made aware of the existence of thousands of pages of previously undisclosed documents and she ordered the FBI to provide the full and complete Epstein files. You heard it just now. Was she lying then when she said she had the client list on her desk? Are, are they lying to us now when they say there is no client list? Why is Delaine Maxwell serving a 20 year sentence for child sex trafficking and related offenses if there's no client list? Why was Jeffrey Epstein in prison if there was no client list? Why does our government think we are dumb? Okay. The reality is there's probably a lot of powerful people on the Epstein list. And folks like to say, well, of course it's not coming out because the President is on it. Donald Trump is on it. I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but look at the flight logs. Okay? Okay. Look at the Epstein flight log. Some of your favorite Democrats like Bill Clinton were on Epstein's plane as well. Okay. Prince Andrew, politicians from Israel. Doesn't mean they were participating in anything nefarious. They might have just been using the jet. My point is Donald Trump isn't the only powerful figure which suppose ties to Jeffrey Epstein. Trust me, there was quite a few powerful people who wanted to make that list. Go abracadabra, okay? Poof. Be gone. All right, Maga, you have every right to be upset. YouTube conspiracy theorists, you have every right to be upset. But take this as a win, okay? Every single thing you have possibly said about the Epstein files, everything you have heard about the Epstein files, it's probably true. You know why? Because people are more what they hide than what they show. So for hiding the Epstein client list, please give the DOJ and the FBI the sweet sounds of the Hamiltones.
Just Hilarious
Oh, now you are the donkey of the day.
Lauren LaRosa
You are the donkey.
Just Hilarious
Of the day. All right, well, thank you for that donkey today.
Charlamagne Tha God
Yes, indeed.
Just Hilarious
All right, when we come back, let's open up the phone lines. 800-585-1051. Now, probably one of the biggest shows out right now is Love Island.
Charlamagne Tha God
Yes, the biggest.
Just Hilarious
I don't watch it, gentlemen. You watch it?
Charlamagne Tha God
No, I hear about it all the time.
Lauren LaRosa
I watch it every now and then. It comes on literally every day except Wednesdays.
Just Hilarious
Every day except Wednesday. Now, this young lady named Sierra Ortega, she. She was kicked off because of a.
Lauren LaRosa
Racial slur post used in Twitter, like, years ago. Used on Twitter years ago.
Just Hilarious
That's right.
Charlamagne Tha God
What was the slur?
Lauren LaRosa
You know what they be saying about people's eyes when they squint them real.
Charlamagne Tha God
Low or read the statement? What was the statement?
Just Hilarious
I'm not reading this statement.
Lauren LaRosa
You know how when you get high in your eyes, like, you can't really see, or you. When you have allergic reaction and your eyes swell up so bad?
Just Hilarious
Correct.
Lauren LaRosa
A lot of people that walk around.
Just Hilarious
They born like that have it. This is a whole story. She basically used the term binky, and.
Lauren LaRosa
It rhymes with inky.
Charlamagne Tha God
What is binky?
Just Hilarious
It rhymes with binky and inky.
Lauren LaRosa
And it's your eyes.
Just Hilarious
It describes. You know what?
Lauren LaRosa
And it's a whole community of people, their eyes. They can't help for their eyes to be like that.
Just Hilarious
Right. So.
Charlamagne Tha God
Oh.
Just Hilarious
So the. The Asian community was. Was upset. And they say Asian hate is oftentimes overlooked and dismissed because of the eyes. Yeah. So Lauren. Lauren just sent it to you. So just hit me what the actual. What the individual said. Let me see. I'm looking for it right now.
Lauren LaRosa
Ain't she Asian?
Just Hilarious
Oh, no, no, she's Asian. She's Latino, I believe. Okay, so we're asking 800-585-1051. She should be kicked off I think she was describing her eyes.
Charlamagne Tha God
She was talking about Botox. She said Botox isn't for everyone, but I love it for me. I am incredibly expressive with my face and I catch myself frowning for no reason throughout the day when I'm focusing on something or thinking too hard. Lol. I can also be a little slur when I laugh, smile. So I love getting a mini brow lift to open up my eyes and get that that is not me encouraging, but more so sharing. This was 2015.
Just Hilarious
2015, yes.
Lauren LaRosa
And she was speaking on herself like she was, you know what I'm saying? What other word? Like, do you know? You know what I'm saying? And her defense, like, what other word do you know? We grew up saying.
Just Hilarious
Well, I will, I will say say this though. Growing up, I didn't know that was a slur. Yeah, we always used it to describe somebody's eyes.
Charlamagne Tha God
Somebody's like, even my eyes said that on ice cream.
Jess Hilarious
Yeah.
Just Hilarious
They would even say it to describe my eyes when I was a kid growing up. They would say, your eyes is this. It wasn't a slur. We just used the term right. Now, of course, Asian people consider it a slur. So they don't like the word. And that's why she was kicked off. So let's have that conversation. Should she have gotten kicked off 800-585-1051 or should they have spoke to her about it and saying, this is what, a racial slur and we don't like it and give her an opportunity to apologize and say, look, I won't use it. I wasn't using it for that.
Charlamagne Tha God
She didn't use it as a slur, that's for sure.
Just Hilarious
That's my point. Like, some things have to be moments and some things are a slur. And she didn't use it as a slur. She used it as describing, like describing her.
Charlamagne Tha God
But I'm also not Asian. You know what I'm saying? Because if she would have been like, I got a niggery nose. You know, I got a.
Just Hilarious
Nobody said that.
Charlamagne Tha God
Nobody. You got.
Just Hilarious
Nobody says that.
Lauren LaRosa
I think it's very racist when they say a certain, certain people can't drive because of that. You know what I'm saying? You ever heard them people say, oh, Asian people can't drive because their eyes is.
Charlamagne Tha God
You shut your.
Lauren LaRosa
I'm like, that still messed up because they shouldn't say this.
Just Hilarious
What? Okay, but even when, when what's his name? What's the dude's name? He said nappy headed. Nappy Heady hoos.
Jess Hilarious
Yeah.
Just Hilarious
Wasn't he a coach?
Charlamagne Tha God
He was a whole coach. He was a radio.
Just Hilarious
Radio personality.
Charlamagne Tha God
He was. Talk about the Ruckus basketball team. Listen, I don't know, just call up.
Just Hilarious
Yeah, we'll just chatting. 800-585-1051.
Lauren LaRosa
So messed up.
Just Hilarious
It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. Pull out your phone. Call in right now.
Charlamagne Tha God
Add your opinion to the Breakfast Club topic. Break it down.
Just Hilarious
800-585-1051. The Breakfast Club.
Lauren LaRosa
You started calling my phone, calling my phone.
Charlamagne Tha God
It's top big time.
Just Hilarious
Call 800-585-1051 to join into the discussion.
Charlamagne Tha God
With the Breakfast Club.
Just Hilarious
Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy. Just hilarious. Charlamagne, the guy. We are the Breakfast Club. Now, if you're just joining us, we're talking about Love island, one of the biggest shows on TV right now, if not the biggest. One of the girls got kicked off. Her name was Sierra Ortega and that's because she used a racial slur. So Charlamagne, you got the actual poster where she said yes.
Charlamagne Tha God
Back in 2015. She had just gotten Botox. So she said Botox isn't for everyone. But I love it for me. I am incredibly expressive with my face and I catch myself frowning for no reason throughout the day when I'm focusing on something or thinking too hard, lol. I can also be a little slur when I laugh, smile. So I love getting a mini brow lift to open up my eyes and get that snatched look. This is not me encouraging but more so daring.
Just Hilarious
Right. So if you don't know, she was talking about her eyes being low. Right. So we're asking 800-585-1051 what happens to Sierra? Should she have been kicked off of the show?
Charlamagne Tha God
Well, what I'm realizing too though is somebody else had just gotten kicked off the show for using some type of racial slur.
Just Hilarious
The N word.
Charlamagne Tha God
Oh, they. What did they say? You niggery eyes.
Just Hilarious
I don't think it's a unique eyes what they say. They probably just said, well, but let me, let me see exactly what the.
Charlamagne Tha God
I don't know what the statement was. So I guess you know, equal opportunity. Right? But I guess it's. To me it would be a difference between using the N word and using that word. What do you call? Is that the C word? I don't even know that was the thing. But is it? I think it's a difference because in the case of her using it, she was using it as a descriptor for her own Eyes.
Just Hilarious
Right.
Charlamagne Tha God
And, you know, growing up listening to, like, you know, Wu Tang used to use that word a lot. You know, I mean, like, not. Not as a racial slur, either. They would use it to describe, you know, how their eyes look after smoking weed a lot of times.
Just Hilarious
Right. But, you know, as a kid, a lot of people, even with me, I had. Well, what term can I use now? I had. What could I say? Cat eyes. Because cat eyes, fine. I had, quote, unquote, cat eyes. So they would always say, my eyes look like that.
Charlamagne Tha God
You want to be everything but black.
Just Hilarious
I don't, but that's what they used to say about my eyes.
Charlamagne Tha God
So what happened? They just opened up one day, like. Like, what happened? What are you talking about?
Just Hilarious
They still little?
Charlamagne Tha God
No, they not. Not even. Not at all. Well, you want to be Dominican, you want to be Asian, you want to be everything but you. Why can't you just be who you are?
Just Hilarious
Let's go to the phone lines, man.
Charlamagne Tha God
Be gay in Dominican.
Just Hilarious
Hello?
Charlamagne Tha God
Who's this?
Jess Hilarious
Oh, what's happening? It's Marcus from Duval.
Just Hilarious
Marcus, what's up, man? Talk to us. What's your thoughts, Marcus?
Jess Hilarious
Honestly, as a black man, I do not care. She was talking about herself, describing her. You know what I'm saying? Like, I mean, y' all was just saying it was in a rap song. Who that was Snoop Dogg.
Charlamagne Tha God
Wu Tang on holiday?
Just Hilarious
Yeah.
Charlamagne Tha God
Oh, he did?
Jess Hilarious
Yeah, he was. His eyes was the slur, and he was with King at the holiday end. Like, man, no hard, no foul. Everybody always offended when something happened to somebody of a different race, but don't nobody care when it happened to black people. So I don't care.
Charlamagne Tha God
That is true. I. I guess for me, man, I wish that the conversation was had. I don't know what the other girl said. I don't watch the show, so I didn't. I don'. The other girl said in regards to the N word, so I don't know.
Just Hilarious
How they said she said it on the podcast, but like you said, I don't know how it was used as well.
Charlamagne Tha God
Yeah, I need to know how it was used.
Just Hilarious
But.
Charlamagne Tha God
But to this, I'm gonna be honest with you. I agree with our last caller, but I don't really care if Asians say that they upset about it and she got kicked off or she stepped down.
Just Hilarious
But if she didn't use it as a slur and she used it to describe herself. Right. Whatever happened to conversations like, nah, that's not what we do, and the reason why we. We don't have conversations anymore. We just quick to cancel somebody and throw them off a show.
Charlamagne Tha God
Well, it wouldn't be. Well, maybe it wouldn't be fair if she had. If. If she didn't get kicked off, but the other girl got kicked off, then it might not be fair what happened. If the other girl got kicked off and they didn't kick her off and had a conversation with her, then people would be like, why didn't you have a conversation with the girl that said the N word?
Just Hilarious
All right, well, let's be honest. How can you use the N word in a way that describes something?
Charlamagne Tha God
We heard that before. It's some powerful at work here.
Lauren LaRosa
Wow. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Charlamagne Tha God
It don't got to be black.
Lauren LaRosa
Nah. What do you mean? If you describe something, you're implying that it's black. If you're describing something, then yes, it's.
Charlamagne Tha God
But.
Just Hilarious
But you use that term you're not describing. Right?
Lauren LaRosa
Yeah. What do you mean? It depends.
DJ Envy
This is a very broad.
Lauren LaRosa
The word ink is very like. Is much more broad. You know what I mean?
Charlamagne Tha God
I need to see what the woman said.
Lauren LaRosa
We didn't know that. You just read it.
Charlamagne Tha God
No, no, I'm talking about the woman.
Just Hilarious
That used the N word. Like, I. I can't. There's no way to use the N word in a way that.
Lauren LaRosa
Yeah, yeah.
Charlamagne Tha God
Like why didn't know you're using it as a term of endearment. Like how we. When we have. When we make excuses for using it. What if you're doing it like that? What if you're rapping a song?
Lauren LaRosa
Yeah.
Charlamagne Tha God
What if you're a white girl and you.
Just Hilarious
If she was rapping a song and she got carried away, you just be like, hey, don't say it. You don't cancel if she's rapping the song.
Charlamagne Tha God
What if she was on the podcast, she was like. She referring to one of her other white girls and she was like, yo, this my go right here? I don't know. I'm. And by the way, I'm just. I don't know.
Just Hilarious
But all right.
Lauren LaRosa
Or what if one of them get their lips done and they'd be like, oh, your lips are looking really icky.
Charlamagne Tha God
That's a little too far.
Just Hilarious
We have Linda on the line. Linda, good morning.
Jess Hilarious
Good morning. How's everybody?
Just Hilarious
Good, Good. Now, Linda, you're Korean American.
Jess Hilarious
I'm Korean American.
Just Hilarious
Okay, so what do you think about it?
Jess Hilarious
So anyway, yeah, I feel like that she should not got kicked off, but she should at least apologize. I think it is for being Asians that we are pretty sensitive when it comes to that word. I mean, I used to use that word back in the day. And my family, you know, like, my husband is Puerto Rican from New York, so I know that, you know, that word was used a lot, but I don't think she should have been kicked off.
Just Hilarious
See, I agree with you. I think sometimes teaching people, especially when people have been raised saying it. Because in New York, we use that term when we describe somebody's eyes or somebody smoking or low eyes. That was a term. Not until I got a lot older that I really realize it was a racial slur. But as a child, it was just used. And I think sometimes we need to have those teachable moments without canceling somebody right away.
Jess Hilarious
Yeah, exactly. Yeah. So I feel the same. Like, I mean, because that's my generation, too. Like, we used a lot of different words back in the day.
Charlamagne Tha God
Like what Dan word. You ever use that one?
Lauren LaRosa
No.
Charlamagne Tha God
But even.
Just Hilarious
Even there's a gang slur that was in every rap.
Lauren LaRosa
Like, what?
Charlamagne Tha God
Which one?
Lauren LaRosa
Crazy.
Just Hilarious
The one that rhymes with maggot.
Charlamagne Tha God
Fraggle maggot?
Just Hilarious
Yes, every rap. And people used it all the time.
Charlamagne Tha God
Fraggle maggot.
Lauren LaRosa
I was with Maggie. That was the one that we. Yeah, Maggie.
Just Hilarious
Am I lying, Linda?
Jess Hilarious
Yeah. No, that's the truth. You know, like, we people are more sensitive.
Charlamagne Tha God
We're all words now. We gotta bring back that one. I'm not. I'm telling y' all right now, I'm never giving that one up, okay?
Lauren LaRosa
I just.
Jess Hilarious
That's Char's word.
Charlamagne Tha God
I'm telling you, you gotta use it because. What. There's no other way to describe some people.
Just Hilarious
Last time you said it, all the. All the. They called up and they was upset with you.
Charlamagne Tha God
That never happened.
Lauren LaRosa
What the hell?
Charlamagne Tha God
That never happened.
Just Hilarious
It did.
Charlamagne Tha God
By the way, the crazy thing about all of these slurs, at least for me, I can't speak for everybody, okay? Growing up, we never used the slurs for who? I guess they were intended.
Lauren LaRosa
Right?
Charlamagne Tha God
Like, I never. You never a gay person. I never. Did you call your homeboys that? You know what I'm saying? You never called.
Just Hilarious
Same thing with the re. With the re. We didn't. We never called.
Charlamagne Tha God
We didn't call actual people with mental disabilities the R word. We called your homeboy.
Just Hilarious
He being right now.
Charlamagne Tha God
Yep.
Lauren LaRosa
That'd be crazy if somebody walked up to somebody Asian and was like, oh, yes. Or, you know, they be like, what?
Just Hilarious
You know, my dad did call me a maggot one time. A Fraggle maggot one time, though.
Charlamagne Tha God
He was Right.
Lauren LaRosa
But it was. It was something that you. You was a. A rock boy. You used to wear jeans with your ass out.
Just Hilarious
No, I got an earring. When I got an earring, dad sat me down. 800-585-1051. Let's discuss this. Young lady was kicked off of Love island because she said a racial slur in describing her eyes. She was describing her eyes, and she used it on Twitter, I think, in 2015, describing her own eyes. Should she be kicked off the show? Let's discuss this. The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. We're talking about this young lady that got kicked off of Love Island. Her name is Sierra Ortega. Now, she was describing her eyes in a 2005 post.
Charlamagne Tha God
2015.
Just Hilarious
2015 post where she was talking about Botox, and she said her eyes look a little rhymes with binky.
Charlamagne Tha God
Now I'm learning more because, you know, everybody watches Love Island. Everybody I know watches Love Island. Correct. The young lady, Ulissa Escobar, she got kicked off Love island because they pulled. Pulled up clips from her on a whole podcast where she used the N word excessively. Well, she. I. Which I can't tell who's who. I don't know which one is. They both look like. Is that racist for me to say? I don't know who's your. Listen. Who's not you listen. But it's two girls. Which one of the Ulysses said, none.
Lauren LaRosa
Of them are black, by the way.
Just Hilarious
They're both Latino.
Lauren LaRosa
They're both Latino.
Jess Hilarious
Yeah.
Charlamagne Tha God
And okay, so Ulissa uses it the first time, and she's referring to one of her home girls, and she says, are you that NY word. Whatever. Whatever. Let's play the clip.
Jess Hilarious
Are you that.
Morgan
That controls what she wears or.
DJ Envy
Right.
Morgan
You my.
Lauren LaRosa
Perfect.
Just Hilarious
But that's it.
DJ Envy
Like, now I'm my.
Lauren LaRosa
He's mine.
Just Hilarious
All right, so we're asking 800-585-1051 she should be kicked off the show.
Charlamagne Tha God
Now, I don't think either one of them should have been kicked, though.
Just Hilarious
I will say this. In New York growing up, Spanish people use the term nickel.
Charlamagne Tha God
Yep.
Just Hilarious
And it's not a thing because that's how we grew up.
Lauren LaRosa
Up.
Just Hilarious
We all. We. We will all grew up together. I know in certain places, that doesn't happen. I know in California. I know Mexicans use the term. And that's how they grew up.
Lauren LaRosa
Yeah.
Just Hilarious
So when you hear a Latino person, I mean, JLO said it, Fat Joe says it.
Lauren LaRosa
I ain't never heard JLO say yes. Oh, my God.
Charlamagne Tha God
That's a Big thing. It was in that song.
Just Hilarious
Yeah, so. So when you hear it, it's. It's not nothing new, because that's how we grew up in New York. It really is not.
Charlamagne Tha God
Well, Ulysses did put out a apology saying that, you know, she's owning her mistake. Mistakes. She's speaking her truth. She didn't know better back then. She knows better now. I'm gonna be honest with you. I don't give a damn.
Lauren LaRosa
Yeah, like, she wasn't using it as a racial slur. She wasn't taught. You know what I'm saying? That. That you can tell she was just comfortable. She was. Although they had mics and all of that stuff. It was a podcast, but she was referring to somebody she was dealing with.
Charlamagne Tha God
No, I'm saying I don't give a damn. As far as. Like, I don't.
Just Hilarious
You don't care.
Charlamagne Tha God
Care about either story. Here's the thing. If you. If they got kicked off, cool. If they didn't get kicked off, cool. But I do think some conversations do need to happen because I see a lot of people saying, I didn't know that word. The slanded eyewear was a bad word.
Just Hilarious
Yeah, I. I mean, I found out years ago, but as a kid.
Charlamagne Tha God
And can be confusing for some people, too, because y' all use it as a term of endearment. Okay, so that's how she was using it. She was using it like how you would hear some black dudes in the hood or some black women in the hood use it. You know, it's like, with women.
Lauren LaRosa
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Just Hilarious
Hello?
Charlamagne Tha God
Who's this?
Jess Hilarious
It's Britney.
Just Hilarious
Hey, Britney, talk to us. What's your thought?
Jess Hilarious
Yes, I just think that they went so overboard, they could have just let her know that it was just a slur. Now, there's not many ways that you can describe that look. Just like, if she had a black eye, what she's supposed to say.
Charlamagne Tha God
There's only one way. You ain't never heard nobody say, I'll give you a nigga eye. Now, that ain't never happened. Okay. It's black.
Just Hilarious
Black eyes.
Jess Hilarious
Okay. But black is still.
Charlamagne Tha God
If you use it, black is a color.
Jess Hilarious
If you use it offensively, it could be offensive to us.
Charlamagne Tha God
No, that's true.
Just Hilarious
I hate you because of color.
Charlamagne Tha God
I hate you black. Yes. I hate you black. Your black ass. Don't make me beat your black ass.
Lauren LaRosa
Oh, my God.
Just Hilarious
Thank you, mama.
Charlamagne Tha God
It's all about the usage of the word. You know what I'm saying? Like. Like somebody said on the. This girl's post. What's her name? Escobar. They said she's not sorry. She's only sorry that she got caught. She said it on a podcast. It's not like she was trying to.
Lauren LaRosa
Hide it, like, got caught. It's crazy.
Just Hilarious
Hello?
Charlamagne Tha God
Who's this?
Jess Hilarious
Rockstar.
Just Hilarious
What's up, bro? Where you calling from?
Jess Hilarious
I'm calling from Charlotte, North Carolina.
Just Hilarious
All right, what's your thoughts, brother?
Jess Hilarious
Well, I think that they just using that for the Asian community to have a word, like the Indian N word. Everybody wants to have an N word. Everybody can't have it.
Charlamagne Tha God
I don't even want us to have it. We shouldn't have it.
Jess Hilarious
Hey, I'm gonna be honest with you guys. I don't care who uses it, because we turned it into something that we use, and you're a liar.
Charlamagne Tha God
Liar. If a white man came up to you right now and called you the N word, you would be upset. Stop lying.
Jess Hilarious
Or even if happened. I'm sorry, man.
Lauren LaRosa
But look, even if.
Jess Hilarious
Will it fit back in those times, I get upset, but now I just think that it's used by all. All people are using it now. Yeah, everybody love it.
Lauren LaRosa
Not even.
DJ Envy
All right, look.
Lauren LaRosa
So not even if he walk up to you and cut. But if a white guy walk up to you, right, and be like, yo, what's going on with them down the street? How are you gonna feel about that?
Jess Hilarious
Yeah, the way he presented. If they present it like, hate. And you'll know. You'll know when somebody's presenting to you that way. But if a white guy came up to me, what's that? I'll be like, good.
Lauren LaRosa
What's good?
Just Hilarious
Hey, y. Goodbye, sir. What's the moral of the story?
Charlamagne Tha God
I don't find that funny. I think that this is. I think you a silly. I'm gonna be honest with you. The person that just called, if you let a white man just say, my. That's a little silly, man. You know what I'm saying? It's just a little silly. Silly. Listen, I think Love island is fair, all right? Both of those women you listen to, Escobar, Sierra, Ortega, both use slurs in non slur ways, and they both got kicked off the show.
Lauren LaRosa
Yeah.
Charlamagne Tha God
I don't really see the issue. If they. If they. If they both got kicked off the show for using slurs, that's fair.
Lauren LaRosa
It's crazy. I won't never see none of the mad Asians. They always be like, oh, the Asian community got upset, but I ain't see one. Like, we not ain't nobody come forth.
Just Hilarious
Oh, no, no.
Lauren LaRosa
I said that we are. You know, nobody said.
Charlamagne Tha God
It's probably an Asian Twitter. Probably.
Lauren LaRosa
But I'm telling you, I think, you know, because a lot of times what white people do, they get mad for other people. Like they get mad for other people.
Charlamagne Tha God
Don't probably.
Lauren LaRosa
Probably even said nothing.
Charlamagne Tha God
I don't know. I have no idea.
Lauren LaRosa
Oh, my God.
Just Hilarious
All right, well, let's get to the latest with Nora Lauren becoming a straight thing. She gets them from somebody that. That knows somebody.
Charlamagne Tha God
She gets the details.
DJ Envy

No, we ain't missing. Well, I ain't missing. I heard it.
Just Hilarious
We're gonna start the mix with it this morning.
DJ Envy
Okay. We're gonna talk about it a bit right here. Because if you've heard the song, there's a few lines that, you know, people are having Some conversation Drake is obviously still upset about. Not like us in the whole Pop out concert. Yep. So those shots that he threw in that verse, LeBron James is who people are throwing that way because, remember, LeBron was at the Pop out show dancing to the music, and there's been so much back and forth. Not back and forth. But Drake has openly said the.
Just Hilarious
The hairline thing, right?
DJ Envy
Yeah. The headlines. Because the run. He said headline, Arthur.
Just Hilarious
He said hairline.
Charlamagne Tha God
My bad headline. His song. A lot of his basketball friends were at the Pop out, though. Wasn't DeMar DeRozan there?
DJ Envy
He got. He got smoke with him, too. Now, because of that.
Lauren LaRosa
People that he would have to go at. Yo. If it was. If it came to that. You know what I mean? It's just so many people that you.
Charlamagne Tha God
Had to go at. It's a cool record. I mean, Drake can rap, Drake can make music. We know that. But, I mean, y' all don't think it's extremely corny for him to be in a video surrounded by guns?
Lauren LaRosa
No, absolutely it is.
Charlamagne Tha God
Yeah. Yeah, for sure. Y' all don't think that's extremely corny? Yeah.
Lauren LaRosa
The song, honestly, just sounds like another good hit. Drake. I mean, a good Drake hit. It don't really sound like.
Charlamagne Tha God
I don't even know if. I don't even know if it's.
Just Hilarious
I wouldn't say.

Just Hilarious
It's still a huge record in the clubs.
DJ Envy
But don't you think right now Drake should be talking about something other than this? Like, we've heard. We Know how he feel.
