And Lucas, Luke and I playing all three

[DJ Envy]

tonight. The Knicks take on the 76s at seven. And the spurs take on the Timberwolves at 9:30. What's up, Mim?

[Mimi Brown]

Good morning, M.B. jess, Charlemagne. How y' all doing this morning? Good morning. So we start this morning in Tennessee, where Republicans have now approved a controversial new congressional map designed to break apart black voting power and eliminate the state's Democratic seat in Congress. So we told you about this yesterday, and now that vote has happened. This new map splits Memphis, a city that's about 64% black, into three separate congressional districts. Six, spreading black voters into neighboring majority white areas all the way down to Nashville. Right now, Memphis is home to Tennessee's only majority black congressional district. But under this new map, that district is essentially dismantled. Now, once the voting started taking place yesterday, reaction inside the Tennessee Capitol, it quickly turned chaotic. Let's listen to a little bit of that.

[Trap Dicky]

Thank you, Mr. Speaker.

[DJ Envy]

Let's remind ourselves that while we're here in this special session.

[Ad Voice 1]

Trooper, please clear out that balcony over there.

[Charlamagne Tha God]

Please clear out the balcony.

[Dana White]

Leader Lamberth,

[DJ Envy]

Mr. Clark, favorite speaker.

[Ad Voice 2]

I yield. I yield the remainder of my time.

[Just Hilarious]

Please take the vote. House Bill 7007003. Having received the Constitution's majority, I hereby declare a pass.

[Ad Voice 1]

Without objection, the motion resetters table.

[Charlamagne Tha God]

Lear lamp.

[Angela Oakley]

Jesus.

[Mimi Brown]

Yeah, it was very, very chaotic. And so what was happening is that a lot of the black members in the House, they stood in front, they were holding arms, locking arms, state troopers. They were eventually ordered to clear the galleries as protesters screamed, they chanted, and they refused to leave. Democratic Democrats and civil rights groups, though they say this goes far beyond Politics arguing that the map is a racial gerrymandering aimed at directly weakening black representation. Let's listen to Tennessee step state Rep. Justin Pearson.

[DJ Envy]

We are here because this Republican Party

[Angela Oakley]

has to seek to steal elections and

[DJ Envy]

seats because the president and the party have refused to address the pain, the suffering and the struggling of everyday Tennesseans. This is about attacking, targeting and cracking District 9 into pieces for more political and racial dominance and white supremacy in the state of Tennessee.

[Mimi Brown]

Well, Pearson is running for District 9 for Congress. And so this map, this new map, will just write him right out of the running for that seat. The Tennessee naacp, they've already filed an emergency lawsuit calling the map illegal and unconstitutional. But, you guys, Tennessee may just be the beginning. Louisiana has already delayed its primary elections to redraw its congressional maps. Alabama is currently in a special session trying to revive a map federal courts have previously struck down as racially discriminatory. Florida, they've already approved new maps last week. Now, Mississippi and South Carolina, they are under growing pressure to follow. And speaking of South Carolina, Congressman Jim Clyburn, he's the only Democrat that South Carolina sends to Washington. Well, he's also sounding the alarm this morning. He says Republicans are now trying to remove him and redraw his seat, and not because voters demanded it, but because Donald Trump requested it. He tweeted that on X. And South Carolina's primary, it's less than a month away. Absentee ballots have already gone out. And today in South Carolina, lawmakers will hold a major hearing on their new map and on whether to delay that primary itself or to let it let the date stand as is.

[Just Hilarious]

So what are the solutions? That's what I need to hear because we already know Republicans are doing everything they can to steal these midterms. Everything you just laid out, Mimi. But what can be done politically to stop the steal? Because the messaging sounds crazy when you say Republicans are stealing elections. They are weakening your vote, but the way to combat it is by going to vote.

[DJ Envy]

And.

[Mimi Brown]

Yeah, well, that's a great question. And I have an interview later with Justin J. Pearson, because my question to him is, what can people do? That's the question that a lot of people want to know. What, what can we do? I know that the NAACP there, they're suing the state of Tennessee. But what do we as a people, how can we fight this? Is there anything that we can do? You know, it just, it feels like the fix is in, but there's gotta be something. Or is there something?

[Charlamagne Tha God]

Right?

[DJ Envy]

Yeah, it definitely seems like the Fix is in.

[Just Hilarious]

You can't. Because you can't. It'll discourage people from voting. Right. When you tell people that, you know they're stealing the elections, which is true, they're weakening your right to vote. But the way to combat it is by voting.

[DJ Envy]

It's like, yeah, but you can't concede. You can't give up.

[Just Hilarious]

No, you can't. But that's what I'm saying. What are the solutions politically? I.

[DJ Envy]

All right, well.

[Mimi Brown]

Yeah, go ahead.

[DJ Envy]

I was gonna say. Well, what are you talking next hour?

[Mimi Brown]

All right, well, coming up at 7, a new warning about a global health scare. Health officials and a dozen countries, they are on high alert. Yeah, we're going to talk about this. We'll break down what's happening. And if you should be afraid of

[Just Hilarious]

what's next, just start drinking your hand. Sanitize sanitizer now, man. Sanitizer. Put your mask on. What else we was doing?

[DJ Envy]

Who was the last person? That was Trump.

[Just Hilarious]

The president said, yeah, what else we got to do?

[DJ Envy]

My goodness. Get it off your chest. 800-585-1051. If you need to vent, call us up right now. Again, 1-800-585-1051. Get it off your chest. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning.

[Just Hilarious]

It's a new day. This is your time to get it off your chest.

[Charlamagne Tha God]

This is gonna sound crazy, all right? But I understand what Thanos was saying, that we got to get rid of a few to save the masses. Because I told my cousin that we needed to sink the ship about three weeks ago. And now they got people that's off the ship roaming around the world, and they've been that passing stuff around.

[Just Hilarious]

You know what's interesting? You know what made Thanos's theory so fat Great? Because it was fair. He didn't pick and choose. So it might be your ass. So you. So if that's what you want, people. If that's what you want for people, when you turn to dust and your family turn to dust, okay? Remember, this is what you wanted. Travel for the greater good.

[Charlamagne Tha God]

I don't have no. We. We ain't got the Hannah virus.

[Just Hilarious]

Well, you got a house in Virginia, stupid.

[DJ Envy]

Well, the Hannah virus, if you don't know much about it, Mimi Brown is gonna be breaking it down in a couple of minutes. She'll be breaking it down, the ship and everything that she's talking about. But yes, it's already, I believe, linked to like three deaths already. So she'll break everything down. What's going on with that?

[Just Hilarious]

How.

[DJ Envy]

It's how you can get infected. And should we be scared and nervous?

[Just Hilarious]

Well, they said it's harder to catch than Covid, but it's 40% more fatal.

[DJ Envy]

Correct?

[Just Hilarious]

Yeah, yeah.

[Just Hilarious]

All right, Don't.

[Angela Oakley]

Don't even say don't worry. Don't worry about it. Don't worry about it. I'm gonna make sure I put my agents on it, man. But I am. It wasn't canceled. It was rescheduled. We just try and get a date. They not as responsive as Bruce was.

Yeah, yeah. What's up, Envy?

[DJ Envy]

[Charlamagne Tha God]

I'm good. Hey, I need y' all to stop giving my girl. Look at that.

[Just Hilarious]

You don't even know lowering.

[Charlamagne Tha God]

Yeah, y' all give her. Y' all give a hard time. Hey, man, y' all got daughters. Stop talking about that young lady early in the morning.

[Angela Oakley]

Exactly.

[Just Hilarious]

What you think. I don't talk to my daughters. Me and my daughters don't got jokes. I love lowering, man.

[Charlamagne Tha God]

Listen, but if a man was cracking on your daughter, talking about her bald spot every morning, you be wanting.

[Just Hilarious]

But. But my daughter would have them jokes back ready to go.

[Angela Oakley]

[Just Hilarious]

I love y'.

[Charlamagne Tha God]

All.

[Just Hilarious]

Thank you, brother.

[Charlamagne Tha God]

But I don't. I don't think it's very healthy for the community to have people like Dana White and others on that basically are disenfranchising the community when it comes to certain things.

[Just Hilarious]

So why not have them on? Why not have them on and have that conversation?

[Charlamagne Tha God]

Even when you have a conversation, I have to say this. Most of this audience don't even have past a third grade reading level.

[Just Hilarious]

Damn. Don't disrespect my people like that, man.

[Charlamagne Tha God]

Listen, I saw a video of these people that didn't even know how to pronounce the word silhouette or extraordinary.

[Angela Oakley]

Hey, yo, silhouette ain't one of the easiest words to identify. When you first said brother. It's not that.

[Charlamagne Tha God]

It is an easy word. I've been knowing that word.

[Just Hilarious]

Because you're proving this point.

[Angela Oakley]

A word like silhouette is not easy to read if you already don't.

[Just Hilarious]

That's what he's just.

[Angela Oakley]

You know what I'm saying? Nah, that's not what he's saying. Can't even pronounce words like silhouette.

[Just Hilarious]

You got to listen to everything he said. He said people read on.

[Charlamagne Tha God]

They're looking at it and reading it on his videos, and they're like, I don't know what that word is.

[Lauren LaRosa]

Right?

[Just Hilarious]

Yes.

[Angela Oakley]

So you teach. Teach.

[Charlamagne Tha God]

But, man, listen, these are kids that's walking around in high school and they don't know what the word silhouette is.

[Just Hilarious]

Well, people do need to read more. I mean, that is true.

[Charlamagne Tha God]

But Dana White right now, the current president of the United States, who's talking about having a UFC fight when people out here are hungry, people starving. As my man Freeway said, when my sneak start leaning and my heat start stop working, my heat start working, I'm

[Just Hilarious]

a rob me of person. But listen, you're not wrong.

[Charlamagne Tha God]

Exactly.

[Just Hilarious]

But let's have the conversation. Like, don't knock it till you hear the interview. Let's have a conversation, man.

[DJ Envy]

Yes.

[Charlamagne Tha God]

It's just like I asked somebody the other day. I said, where's my man Cornell West? Where's Jill Stein? Because we. We out here suffering. And they said they were going to do something. Do something now.

[Just Hilarious]

Well, Cornell, you know, Cornell's still talking. Cornell don't never stop talking. He be on Abby Phillips show on CNN a lot. I don't Jill Stein. You're right. I have no idea.

[DJ Envy]

But thank in brother.

[Charlamagne Tha God]

All right. Y' all have a good day.

[DJ Envy]

Man, get it off your chest. 800-585-1051. If you need to vent, you can hit us up. What's up, Lauren?

[DJ Envy]

Wow. Wow.

[Mimi Brown]

Why?

[DJ Envy]

We got the latest coming up.

[Lauren LaRosa]

Yes, we do. So yesterday we talked a little bit about Kodak Black being arrested down in Florida. But I have updates and I spoke to his attorney who tells me they believe that Kodak is being targeted by police down there. So we're going to get into some exclusive updates that we have.

[DJ Envy]

We get to that next. It's the breakfast.

[Charlamagne Tha God]

This past weekend, like every other Sunday, you were on the court with the guys playing ball. Just a quick pickup game, living out your hoop dreams. No triple doubles, but mean set of threes in between buckets. One of the homies mentioned he closed on a new crib. This is big. And while everyone's asking about housewarming and making plans to celebrate, you're asking the real questions. Like, has he spoken to his State Farm agent yet about coverage? See, homeownership is one thing, but the right coverage is the real game changer. Even more than your last hot streak, it's how you protect your legacy. Dropping buckets and bars on the court. A State Farm agent can more than assist you with finding the right coverage for your new place. If you have a claim, your local agent can help you file it. Yep, that's right. Over the phone, in person, online, or on the app, they are ready to help you. And they don't drop the ball. You know what I mean? Like a good neighbor. State Farm is there.

[DJ Envy]

Yo, what up, y'?

[Lauren LaRosa]

All?

[DJ Envy]

It's DJ Envy from the Breakfast Club. Now check this out. The first phone call that ever happened happened over 150 years ago. 150 years. That's before any of this.

People outside vibes are right again. Thank God. And it got me thinking. Who haven't you talked to in a minute?

It's really a story about human connection. Real people, real moments. And real relationships. So we celebrate over 150 years of connection. Let this be your reminder. Don't wait. Make that call. Send that text. Pull up on somebody you care about. Because at the end of the day, those connections, that's what really matters.

[Just Hilarious]

You talk LL Cool Babe.

[Lauren LaRosa]

Yeah, I'm not dumbing myself down. I'm being myself. I'm the homegirl that knows a little bit about everything and everybody. Little brown girls look at you and

[Angela Oakley]

go, I want to be like you.

[Lauren LaRosa]

Take me through that. Take me through.

[Angela Oakley]

There she go.

[Just Hilarious]

The latest with Lauren on the Breakfast Club. LL Cool B. Talk to me.

[Lauren LaRosa]

All right, so yesterday we broke some exclusive details on the story about Kodak Black being arrested down in Florida. And I I wanted to just do a brief update there because he did have a hearing yesterday. Bond was set and he's all good there. But I spoke to his attorney yesterday, Bradford Cohen, who told me the details about, you know, Kodak Black. This is in response to an incident from November 2025 where police searched two cars. Kodak Black was not in the cars, but he was outside of one of them. And they found a pink Louis Vuitton bag that had some cough syrup in it. They alleged it also had mdma. MDMA in it and some money. Now, the police were telling Kodak's attorney yesterday when we talked about this, that the reason why they charged him with the drug trafficking was because there were handprints or fingerprints found on some of the things within the bag. Kodak's attorney called me yesterday after we got off air. He was pretty upset because he said that once he was debriefed again by police, they said that actually they had no fingerprints. And the only reason why they were able to charge Kodak with the drug trafficking was because of a photo that they found on Instagram from a week prior to the car searches that showed the pink bag that they found in the car and a pair of, like, scissors and a lighter that were found in the car that were also in these photos as well. So Codex attorneys are pretty upset about that because they feel like there's no way you can link them to these items. Anybody could have purchased or had these items in the car. But in court yesterday, Kodak Black, when he was asking for a smaller bond, the judge made it really clear that the fact that Kodak Black asked for some of the money back that was found in the bag, he, the judge is like, well, there must be some ties to you in this bag. But they'll debate that on a court. They ended up setting a bond at 75K. Even though Kodak's attorneys were asking for 10,000, the state was asking for 50,000. And it sounds like the judge just thinks he may be. He might not come to court because he's had a failure to appear before. So there will be some more developing there, but Kodak's attorneys basically feel like he's being targeted because they feel like all of this is nonsense.

[Trap Dicky]

Wow.

[Lauren LaRosa]

So we'll see what happens now. In other news over in la, Netflix is a Joke is going down. You guys have probably been seeing this all over your timeline and not for sure if everyone knows what it is, but Netflix is a joke. The Weekend Happened In LA is considered one of the largest comedy festivals in North America. So they have over 350 live events from Stand up acts, special events, podcast recordings, and they bring the biggest names in comedy out. I've been seeing things of like Dave Chappelle, Eddie Murphy, Kevin Hart's there. I saw Donnell Rawlings. They did a brunch yesterday for all of the comedians and there's a video of like all of the biggest comedians. I gave the video to Jess and I'm like, just name who you see in this video. Because they are. There's so many names.

[Just Hilarious]

They do that every year.

[DJ Envy]

Yeah.

[Lauren LaRosa]

But a lot. I feel like this year a lot of people are paying more attention to and I think it's because we've been lo on our. Our comedians a little bit more this year.

[Angela Oakley]

But Eddie Murphy, Lionel Nate Jackson, Asian dude that be with Theo Vaughn. I don't know his name. I bet. Matt Rife, earthquake, Donnell Rollins, Ms. Pat Dion, Cole, Wanda Sykes. And it's like a bunch of other people. Because in a video where Donnell is panning, he's moving pretty quick, but it's like a few other.

[Lauren LaRosa]

Yes.

[Trap Dicky]

Yeah.

[Angela Oakley]

It's like it's moving so quick, but it's all of them in one little setting.

[Lauren LaRosa]

Yeah.

[Just Hilarious]

85 South show wasn't there. I know they got. They had a whole set at Netflix.

[Angela Oakley]

They were there before I did see

[Lauren LaRosa]

them in that video, in that brunch. They're there. I know Ms. Pat has an event this weekend coming up as well for the weekend. But yes, just fire to see. And I, I saw an article, Seth Rogen. There was an event, I guess, that he did, and the Daily Beast was there. And at the event, he was talking about the fact that he feels like Kanye west shouldn't be able to make a comeback. And what he's referring to is the fact that there were reports that Dave Chappelle was doing like a small set. And during the small set, he brought Kanye west on stage. And he's.

[Charlamagne Tha God]

He.

[Lauren LaRosa]

Seth Rose Rogan is basically saying Kanye shouldn't be being brought on stages and shouldn't have a number one album right now because of all of, you know, anti Semitic remarks. So that I saw that pick up in the Daily Beast as well, too. And that was an event from Netflix as a joke as well.

[Just Hilarious]

But yes, well, that's his opinion. But you can't control what people still like.

[Lauren LaRosa]

Right.

[Just Hilarious]

You know what I mean? Like, that can be your opinion that, you know, he may not be able to make a comeback, but the people decide that, yeah, that's his opinion.

[DJ Envy]

And if Kanye. He apologized. Right.

[Lauren LaRosa]

And he's still.

[DJ Envy]

I'm not sure if people accepted his apology. But he did apologize. And people always say when somebody apologize, you give him grace and he's what you're.

[Just Hilarious]

You're right. But everybody. Here's the thing. Everybody doesn't have to accept your apology, and everybody doesn't have to cancel you.

[Angela Oakley]

Right.

[Just Hilarious]

And that's not ever going to happen. Happen. That's the way life is. You know, But I understand. I understand Seth's opinion, but that's just his opinion.

[Lauren LaRosa]

Yeah.

[Mimi Brown]

And.

[Lauren LaRosa]

And. And speaking of comedy, yesterday I saw the skit that Drew posted. Did you guys see it?

[Angela Oakley]

Hilarious.

[Lauren LaRosa]

So he's talking about British actors. Let's take a listen.

[DJ Envy]

You ain't going no big city.

[Lauren LaRosa]

I'm going with or without you.

[Just Hilarious]

Rudy, stop talking like that. Stop.

[DJ Envy]

Hey, what are you doing over there?

[Lauren LaRosa]

Get out of here.

[DJ Envy]

Hey, what are you doing?

[Just Hilarious]

And cut. Fantastic.

[Trap Dicky]

I need more American slave.

[DJ Envy]

Okay.

[Just Hilarious]

I struggle. Yeah, the struggle. Sort of like the dialogue.

[Charlamagne Tha God]

Like the back and forth banner.

[Just Hilarious]

Absolutely. All right. Three, two, one, action.

[Charlamagne Tha God]

I'm telling you, if you my.

[Just Hilarious]

I'll kill you.

[Charlamagne Tha God]

Gonna be dollar. No family in this.

[DJ Envy]

We have family.

[Ad Voice 1]

Family.

[Just Hilarious]

Hey, Cut. That's the one. That was stunning. That was stunning. Great performance working with a good London boy. And I bother him all the time. I had a call with that director.

[Trap Dicky]

It was kind of quite quintessential to the Road.

[Just Hilarious]

Are we allowed to show this on Netflix? Because it's a better visual.

[Lauren LaRosa]

Yeah, you gotta see it.

[DJ Envy]

But break down what is. He's making fun of.

[Lauren LaRosa]

He's making fun of that conversation of the British actors come over here to America and take the American actor's role. So you literally see him going in and out of being this deep American actor and all these, like, slave films and these deep dramatic roles. And then goes right back to being regular, you know, a British man who has no American accent whatsoever. Heavy British accent and is breaking down. Even the way he does the interviews when they talk about the directors and the quintessential roles was really good. But it sparked another conversation about, you know, British actors coming here to America.

[Angela Oakley]

But not only was it funny. This was really good. Like, this was really good. Thought out, planned, written like, Drew Ski is a genius.

[Just Hilarious]

Yeah. Generational run right now. And what makes Drew Ski, what he's doing so impressive is it's just him.

[DJ Envy]

Yeah.

[Just Hilarious]

Like, in Living Color was a cast. Mad TV was a whole cast. Chappelle show even had a cast key. And Peele. It was both of them.

[Mimi Brown]

Yeah.

[Just Hilarious]

Drew Ski is just him. Dola.

[DJ Envy]

Yes.

[Just Hilarious]

You know, I mean, of course he got his production team.

[DJ Envy]

He's investing in his production. His production is dope for social media. Amazing. Tier one.

[Just Hilarious]

And another thing I like about Drew Ski is everything folks argue about because we live in just a talk chat era. He just puts into his sketches.

[Lauren LaRosa]

Right.

[Just Hilarious]

It's not even satire. It's just social observations. The megachurch skit, the conservative woman skit, the British actor skit. These are things people have been debating for years. And Drew Ski is, you know, like, man, f. Wasting words.

[Angela Oakley]

Yeah.

[Just Hilarious]

Let me just show you what I'm talking.

[Angela Oakley]

Hilarious how great of an actor he is, too. He's not only funny, he's a good actor, too.

[DJ Envy]

Killed it, killed it, killed it. Salute to Drew Ski.

[Just Hilarious]

Yes.

[Lauren LaRosa]

Well, that's it for the latest. And in the next hour, we'll get. In the next latest, we'll get into the verses that went down with Rick Ross in French Montana.

[Angela Oakley]

Oh, my God, I missed it.

[DJ Envy]

Not too many people knew what happened. All right, when we come back, we got front page news. And then Dana White will be joining us, president and CEO of the ufc. And today, Charlemagne allows you to give somebody donkey today. So we open up the phone lines if you want to give somebody donkey today. 800-585-1051 is 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. Start off with sports. Last night, the Pistons beat the Cavaliers 107. 97. The Thunder beat the Lakers 125, 107. Now the Knicks are playing the 76 tonight at 7 in Philly. The spurs take on the Minnesota Timberwolves 9, 30. That series is tied 1 1. What's up, Mimi?

[Mimi Brown]

Good morning, Envy. Just Charlamagne. How y' all doing this morning?

[Just Hilarious]

Peace. Mimi Brown.

[DJ Envy]

Everybody's been asking about this virus.

[Just Hilarious]

Now, Mimi and the Montana virus, listen,

[Mimi Brown]

this virus, I don't know. I'm gonna just tell it to you like the facts, but here we go. So we start this hour with a global health scare, right? So three people are dead. And this morning, health officials and at least a dozen countries are racing to track down passengers from a cruise ship at the center of this hantavirus outbreak. So that ship, it left Argentina in March. It was bound for the Canary Islands. Now, somewhere on that voyage, the virus got around the world. The World Health Organization has now confirmed five cases, with three more suspected. A Dutch couple and a German national have died. And the passengers, they have since scattered. And here at home in the U.S. health officials, they are monitoring seven returning travelers across five states. Those states are Arizona, California, Georgia, Texas, and Virginia. And now the sign. There are signs that the virus, it may have spread beyond the ship. So there was a flight attended on a KLM flight. She was in the Netherlands. She's now been hospitalized after coming into contact with an infected passenger. So if she tests positive, she would be the first confirmed case linked to this outbreak. WHO was never on that cruise. So that's a big deal. That's something to watch out for. So officials say this Andes virus strain of Hannah virus is one of the deadliest, and it's one of the few that can spread from person to person. Let's listen to a WHO official explain just a little bit more. The Andes virus can have some human to human transmission. So for our point of view, from a public health perspective, this is what we are assuming, and we're trying to take the maximum level of precautions, balancing risk. This is not the next Covid, but it is a serious infectious disease. You know, it's an infectious disease that if people get infected and infections are uncommon, they can die. And so again, people hearing this that are on the ship are very rightly so scared, and the general public might be scared as well. So early information, accurate information, is critical. Knowing what your actual exposure might be. And most people will never be exposed to this.

[Lauren LaRosa]

That's scary, right?

[Mimi Brown]

That didn't calm any fears. The Hannah virus, though it is typically carried by rodents, it's spread to humans through contact, through their urine, their droppings, or their, their saliva. And the World Health Organization, again, they are stressing that's the, the risk. They do remain low. It does not spread like flu or Covid. But the investigation is moving really, really fast, and it's moving across borders. And the outbreak is renewing questions about the public health oversight on cruise ships especially, I don't know if you guys heard this, that Health secretary, Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy, he oversaw cuts to part of the cdc, their cruise inspection, and their sanitation programs, including staff tied to monitoring outbreaks and inspecting ships for health risks. So once again, this was someone's job that got cut.

[Just Hilarious]

Yeah, it feels like 2020 all over again. You know, remember Trump cut a lot of Obama's pandemic team. And then, you know, later on, you started hearing about COVID being a hot spot on cruise ship. It was also during an election year, you know, so, I mean, it just feels like that time all over again. If you ask me, they're gonna do everything in their power to keep y' all home. Okay. They testing all waters they like. Okay. Let's see how the redistricting goes. That don't work. Release the alien files. That don't work. Let Hannah go on the people. God damn it.

[DJ Envy]

I do have a. I do have a question. If they knew the virus was on the boat, right, why did they let the boat dock without figuring that all out? Because they could have just contained it on that boat until it was taken care of.

[Mimi Brown]

That's the big question, right? And then right now, countries are trying to figure out how to get the

[Lauren LaRosa]

people off the boat, right?

[Mimi Brown]

How do you do it where you don't spread it even more to. I. I was reading about Spain. Like, they're trying to figure out how to get the people, you know, in their country off the boat. It's. It's a mess. Envy.

[Lauren LaRosa]

I. I don't know.

[Mimi Brown]

I really don't know.

[Charlamagne Tha God]

Yeah.

[Just Hilarious]

Like you said, don't even say. They say it doesn't spread as easy, but I did read that it's 40 more fatal, but no one wants to get near it.

[Mimi Brown]

Right. Like, whether it doesn't spread as easily or not, it's. It's the unknown about it, I think.

[Just Hilarious]

And they said it's the wind. The wind from, like you said, rodent urine and rodent feces.

[Charlamagne Tha God]

Yeah.

[DJ Envy]

But the thing. It doesn't spread that easy. But everybody got it. Like, what are we talking about?

[Just Hilarious]

Misinformation? Everybody don't have it.

[DJ Envy]

How many people on the boat got it?

[Trap Dicky]

Yeah.

[Angela Oakley]

I say three.

[Mimi Brown]

It was. It was a total of five people died, right? Three more suspected. Three more suspected. Hold on, Let me tell you.

[DJ Envy]

The lady, the flight attendant, they're not all kissing each other. So how are they getting. It don't spread as easy.

[Angela Oakley]

Yeah.

[DJ Envy]

You know what I mean? So.

[Mimi Brown]

Yeah.

[Charlamagne Tha God]

So.

[Mimi Brown]

So three people are dead, and at least a dozen other countries are racing to figure out, like, if other people have it. They. They really don't know.

[Just Hilarious]

It said, as of May 7, 2026, there are three suspected cases of hantavirus linked to the MV Hondia cruise ship outbreak. In addition to five confirmed cases, the World Health Organization has reported a total of eight cases associated with the ship. So ain't no everybody got it. If you don't get on the radio, spreading misinformation, already asking questions.

[DJ Envy]

That's why I gotta ask you to

[Just Hilarious]

not ask a question. You say everybody got it. Everybody got it.

[DJ Envy]

I wanna know how people got.

[Mimi Brown]

Feels like everybody on the ship, you know, they. They may have.

[Lauren LaRosa]

We don't know. I'm with you.

[Angela Oakley]

Like we said, it's the unknown. There's so much we don't know. That's what makes people scared.

[Lauren LaRosa]

It.

[DJ Envy]

That's how co started, baby. No, it's nothing. It's light. Don't worry about it.

[Trap Dicky]

This, that.

[Angela Oakley]

Stay six feet away.

[Just Hilarious]

Stay six feet away.

[DJ Envy]

You'll be all right.

[Just Hilarious]

No, a lot of those people were right. Let's not act like they weren't. Now, in hindsight, they were right. It was a big. It was kind of a. I don't want to say overreaction, cuz you never know. But yes, yes, a lot of those people were right.

[Angela Oakley]

Yeah, but people was dying from that.

[Just Hilarious]

Yes, 100% people died. Millions of people die from the flu every year, too.

[Angela Oakley]

Yeah, I get it.

[DJ Envy]

7 million people officially recorded died from cold.

[Angela Oakley]

Taking it serious enough at first.

[L]

Yeah.

[Mimi Brown]

So this is something to watch. No matter what they say, this is just something to watch. Put it like that. Yes, no matter what. All right, y'.

[Just Hilarious]

All.

[Mimi Brown]

Well, that is your front page news. I'm Mimi Brown. Follow me @mimi Brown TV. And for more stories, follow the Black Information Network.

[DJ Envy]

All right, thank you, Mimi.

[Just Hilarious]

And listen, we got Dana White about to join us, President and CEO of the ufc. But also remember, today is Friday. So if you want to give somebody the donkey of the day. Hey, if you want to give somebody the credit they deserve for being stupid, you have that opportunity. Call us. 1-800-585-1051.

[DJ Envy]

Did you hear about that 20 year, 28 year old woman I think we talked about? I can't remember the 28, 28 year old woman that said she was a student and was in school for like two weeks in the Bronx?

[Angela Oakley]

No.

[Trap Dicky]

Oh, my goodness.

[Just Hilarious]

I told you, the craziest people in America come from the Bronx and all of Florida.

[DJ Envy]

You ain't never lied. Like Charlamagne said, you want to give somebody donkey today, call up right now. It's the Breakfast Club. Dana White's up next. Morning, everybody.

[Angela Oakley]

Is DJ Envy.

[DJ Envy]

Jess. Hilarious. Charlamagne, the guy. We are the Breakfast Club. Lorna Roos is here as well. We got a special guest in the building.

[Angela Oakley]

Yes, sir.

[DJ Envy]

President and CEO of ufc. Ladies and gentlemen, Dana White. Welcome.

[Dana White]

Good morning. How are you?

[DJ Envy]

How you feeling this morning?

[Dana White]

I'm good, I'm good.

[Trap Dicky]

Yeah.

[DJ Envy]

You ever get tired of running around and going from city to city and doing handling fight to fight? Do you ever. Does it ever get tired?

[Dana White]

Yeah, it gets. I'm busier this year than I've ever been with all the other things that I've taken on. But, yeah, no, it's all good. Sometimes traveling gets, you know, starts to kick you in the ass a little bit, but especially as you get older. But it's all good.

[Angela Oakley]

How long have you been around MMA?

[Dana White]

25 years. Well, I mean, I guess you say 28 years, but I've been doing this for 25. Started taking Jiu Jitsu in, like, 97 and fell in love with the sport, and that's how we ended up. Ended up buying the ufc.

[DJ Envy]

What made you jump into martial arts? Was it protection board?

[Dana White]

Well, you know, I was always involved in boxing, and then my old partner Frank Fertitta and I were out at the Hard Rock one night in Vegas, and we ran into a guy named John Lewis who fought in the UFC at that time, and he had a jiu jitsu school in Vegas. Frank's like, I've always wanted to try jiu jitsu, so we went over to him, we talked to him, we set up a lesson on Monday, and that was the beginning of all of it.

[DJ Envy]

Did you see the UFC exploding the way that it did?

[Dana White]

Yeah, I think that when we got involved in it, we became so passionate about it. It was. It was so different than boxing. The fighters were different than boxers, and we believed that it could be big and could work everywhere. I mean, I've always had this philosophy. No matter what color you are, what country you come from, what language you speak, we're all human beings, and fighting's in our DNA. We get it and we like it. I mean, even if you. You say you don't like fighting, if a fight broke out in that room right now, we'd all run over to the glass, watch the fight. It just. It's no. It's just human nature.

[Just Hilarious]

You don't know somebody got a gun, so you gotta stay. We're not like you. Dana, the White House correspondent, like, oh, that was exhilarating.

[Dana White]

You're exactly like me. You would absolutely watch the fight over there.

[Just Hilarious]

But people give you a lot of credit for building the UFC into a global empire. Right? But they also critique you and say you still underpay fighters compared to, like, boxing or, you know, NBA, NFL, even wwe. How do you justify being worth billions of dollars? But some fighters still need second job.

[Dana White]

Yeah, well, listen, I mean, I'm sure some. Some basketball players and baseball players still need second jobs, too, until they make it. What we do is we bring guys in and pay them. You know, guys make like, 10 and 10 or 15 and 15 to come in and fight, you might last one fight, you might not be great, but as you start to prove yourself and, and, you know, listen, there's always going to be talk about fighter pay. I'm in boxing now, and all these guys, all these boxers are signing with us now too. So you're always going to be criticized about something.

[Just Hilarious]

But how come when the fighters talk about unions and collective bargaining, the UFC acts like it's the enemy?

[Dana White]

Like, why we don't act like that's the enemy? I mean, if the fighters wanted to unionize, that's up to them. It's not up to me.

[Just Hilarious]

Okay, yeah. Can you encourage it?

[Charlamagne Tha God]

Sure.

[Dana White]

I, I listen, we, we always have to deal with somebody, could be a manager, an agent. You know, everybody's gotten into some of the, some, some of the biggest lawyers and, you know, in the world have gotten into this. Agents, Hollywood. I mean, everybody. We always have to deal with somebody. We have to negotiate with somebody.

[DJ Envy]

With bot. With UFC being so brutal at times, was there ever a concern with them not approving the fighting in certain states or certain places? Because, I mean, like, boxing, it seems like, you know, you can. It's round, right. There's a referee to stop it. Sometimes UFC is like, they gonna beat the ish out of him until he actually dies.

[Dana White]

Listen, some of these fights, believe me, there are fights that I sit there and watch. When it's over, I go, what do I do for a living? This is insane. But when you spend the right amount of money on health and safety before they get in there. During and after, in the 30 year history of the UFC, there's never been a death or serious injury, even after the craziest fight you've seen. Cheerleading. Can't say that.

[DJ Envy]

You said cheerleading?

[Charlamagne Tha God]

Yeah.

[Dana White]

Cheerleading. Can't say that.

[Just Hilarious]

Yeah. My daughter's a competitive cheerleader. They get hurt a lot.

[Dana White]

A lot.

[Trap Dicky]

Yeah.

[Just Hilarious]

Yeah.

[Dana White]

My daughter in high school was part of the, you know, the hardcore competitive cheerleading, and she was so busted up in high school, it was crazy. Yeah. But 30 years, no death or serious injury in the UFC. Not many sports can say injury. Yeah.

[Angela Oakley]

Damn. They be beating out of each other.

[Just Hilarious]

Right?

[Dana White]

That's so true. So true.

[Just Hilarious]

Now, we talked about the White House correspondence then a little bit. You said it was awesome.

[Dana White]

Yeah.

[Just Hilarious]

Unique experience. And everybody was saying how you didn't get down when the gunshots, you know, went off.

[Lauren LaRosa]

Why?

[Just Hilarious]

Because you knew it was staged.

[Dana White]

I don't know. I mean, you don't know how you're going to react in those type of situations. Until you're in them. But, you know, being a guy, first of all, we're sitting there, and they just set the whole thing up, and they said, we're gonna eat, and then this thing's gonna start and what.

[Just Hilarious]

The shooting.

[Dana White]

Is gonna start. They were gonna serve dinner first, and literally, they just brought the salads out. And I was sitting there talking to Pete Hegseth, and I don't hear well, and my left ear. I'm 100% deaf in my left ear, so I didn't hear the shots. All I heard was plate smashing and glasses and. And these guys. I turn around, and literally 50 guys are coming through the room, and they got their guns out. They get the president and the vice president, all the media people off the stage. And now the stage is filled with people with guns pointed at us with the lights on the end of them, and everybody's yelling, get the on the ground. And I just was like, holy, this is incredible. If you think about, like, the greatest movie you've ever seen, and you watch the way that these Secret Service guys came into the room and how they were. I was just like this. And to be in a situation like that and nobody gets hurt. And then. And even think about this, the media that were in the room that night were mostly women. No screaming, no yelling. Everybody just got on the ground. And it was just such a crazy, unique. Hopefully one of one experience.

[Angela Oakley]

Not one woman screamed at all.

[Dana White]

At all.

[Trap Dicky]

That's crazy.

[Dana White]

And then when it was.

[Just Hilarious]

Oh, no, he might have been on your left side.

[Dana White]

That brilliant. That is brilliant. Yeah, you might be right. I didn't hear any screaming from any women. Yeah, it was. And then after it was over, and. And the other thing is, when this is happening, we don't know what's going on. Is. Is there a shooter in there? Are bullets about to start flying? Is there a bomb? You know, we don't know what's going on. And it's just my adrenaline was. I mean, I don't even. I can't even explain it. For the next four hours, I was bouncing off the walls. It was just. Yeah, it was pretty. It was pretty badass.

[Just Hilarious]

Thrill seeker, though, like you. You said you used to fight do ufc.

[Dana White]

Yeah.

[Just Hilarious]

You like that type of adrenaline? Probably never used a condom in your life.

[Angela Oakley]

Jesus.

[Dana White]

I do. And I've obviously never been in any type of situation like that in my life. It was. It was a really good, unique experience. You know, I know to a lot of people, it sounded twisted, but let me tell you what, as a guy that's never been in something like that. It's just. It's hard to explain, but it was pretty badass.

[DJ Envy]

Whose idea was it to have a UFC fight on the White House lawn? How did that come about?

[Dana White]

So the president was at one of the fights. I can't remember if it was in New Jersey or Miami. And he leans over to me and goes, you know what? We should do a fight at the White House. I said, yes, yes, we should. I like it literally how it started. No, he doesn't bull. So when he says he's gonna do something, he does it. Literally. Monday people started calling and trying to set it up, and that was Saturday. And Monday they called and started setting it up. But, yeah, I'm not gonna say no to doing a fight at the White House.

[DJ Envy]

How does that work? Who gets invited? Do you have to go through protocol? Like, how does that work as far as, you know, celebrities and people coming and. Yeah, some of the fighters.

[Dana White]

I have 200 tickets. Ari Emanuel has 200 tickets, and the president has a thousand tickets. There's four. There'll be like a little over 4,000 people there. Most will be military. Every branch of the military will. Will be there. And, you know, there's 1400 tickets between me, Ari, and the president.

[Just Hilarious]

Do you understand why some people see that as sports history while others see it as just like state sponsored political theater?

[Dana White]

Oh, yeah. The people are. You know, everybody's gonna have an opinion about something like this, but, you know, why would I not? If you're offered to do something at the White House, why would you not do it? Especially on America's 250th birthday. Pretty incredible. Great opportunity.

[Just Hilarious]

Okay.

[Lauren LaRosa]

I was just gonna say, just. There's just so much going on right now that it just seems like, you know, the. The energy, the focus, the resources, that everything could just go somewhere else else.

[Just Hilarious]

Wow.

[Dana White]

Just for the. So we're clear, the. The. The U. S. Taxpayers aren't paying anything. We're flipping the whole bill for this thing.

[Just Hilarious]

That's what they told us about the ballroom too.

[Dana White]

Yeah. Well, this is a fact. I don't know about the ballroom. I'm not involved in that. We're paying for everything, literally everything. And we can't sell a hot dog, a T shirt, a ticket, nothing. We're flipping the bill for. For everything. And my thing is always. There's always something going on. There's always going to be something else, Always something bad. Plus, we're a global business. You know, when the Ukraine, Russia, war started and people Were saying, oh, my God, you can't have Russians fight. I have Russians under contract. They have to feed their families there. I had Palestinians. I have Jewish fighters. I have. You know, there's always going to be something bad going on in this world, and I run a global business.

[Just Hilarious]

You know, you were on Katie Miller podcast, and you said, in regards to your relationship with Trump and has it cost the UFC business, You said, I don't give a. I don't know the answer to that question. I've gotten to a point in my life, especially after Covid and all that nutty that went on during that time, that I only want to be in business with and talk to people that I'm aligned with.

[Dana White]

Well, I don't know about talk to people that I'm aligned, but I want to do business with people that I'm aligned with for sure.

[Just Hilarious]

So you're aligned with Trump on what, exactly?

[Dana White]

Well, Trump is a good friend of mine. I mean, I've been friends with him for 25 years. Friends. I mean, you just happened to become the President of the United States. When we first bought this company, the stigma that was attached to this thing, you can imagine. Think about this. It wasn't allowed on pay per view. You, as a grown adult, didn't have the option to buy it on pay per view. Porn was on pay per view. The UFC was not allowed on. That was the uphill battle we had. So you can imagine, venues didn't want us because, you know, these guys were like, what kind of people will show up to watch this kind of an event? And he had us at the Trump Taj Mahal for the first two fights, you know, 30 and 31. UFC 30 and 31. And then after we did those two, firstly, he showed up for the first fight of the night and stayed till the end for both events. And you think the Trump brand then and the UFC brand and every good thing that ever happened to me in my career after that, he was always the first guy to reach out. So then when he was running in 16, he called me and asked me, would you speak for me at the Republican Convention? And everybody told me not to do it, don't do it. This is going to be bad, and he's never going to win and all that kind of stuff. But this was a guy that was always good to me and, you know, always treated me well, and I did it.

[Just Hilarious]

I can understand that. You know, that's your friend. But when your friend had a disapproval rating of 62%, right? Record high, why people say they don't like his handling of the Iran war. The economy. Cost of living for people is up. Why can't you tell your friend he's failing the people as a friend?

[Dana White]

Well, he's the President of the United States.

[Just Hilarious]

Still your friend and.

[Dana White]

Yeah, I know, but, you know, for me to get involved in, it's like, I'm sure people disagree with you that are friends with you and everybody has friends that you. Just doesn't mean you're not friends with them anymore. It's doesn't mean that you.

[Just Hilarious]

Oh, no, I didn't say you shouldn't be friends with them. I just said, why can't you tell your friend he's failing the people? Because these are the same people who make USC a success.

[Dana White]

Yeah, I don't know if I agree that he's failing the people. I think that when the President is done in three years, people will look back on and realize a lot of the good things. See, I'm closer to him too, and I see all the good things that he does that a lot of people either don't see or don't want to see.

[Just Hilarious]

But tariff inflation has increased the price of household goods, increased utility bills because household electricity costs have gone up 9%. The failure to extend the Affordable Care act is up. People's health care, everyday working class people who support your sport.

[Dana White]

You're never gonna have a president that sits in the White House that everybody approves 100% of everything they do. And not everything is always gonna be perfect. You're gonna have some things that work out great and a lot of things that don't. It's your just. It's no different than running a business or any other thing. Nobody's ever going to be absolutely perfect.

[Just Hilarious]

Oh, I agree.

[Dana White]

When they're the President of the United States.

[Just Hilarious]

Can you tell your friend when he's.

[Dana White]

Yeah, we talk about a lot of things, but I don't try to get into you.

[Just Hilarious]

Like everything he's doing.

[Dana White]

Well, like I just said, you're never going to agree with everything. But, you know, as a friend, I'm not going out there. And he and I have never. Other than the first two UFC events, then nothing with us is transactional. I'm not trying. He doesn't call me. And like, I'll give you an example. The White House fight, other than Derrick Lewis, the black beast, other than him, he didn't tell me, hey, put this guy do this. We're sitting at the fight in Miami a couple weeks ago and he says, why is the black beast Derek Lewis,

[Just Hilarious]

make sure that's his nickname.

[Charlamagne Tha God]

I don't

[Just Hilarious]

know.

[Dana White]

He's the President, one of the President's favorite fighters.

[Just Hilarious]

Okay.

[Dana White]

So he says to me, why is he not on the card? I literally got up and walked over to my matchmaker Mick. I said, get, get Derek on the phone. Called Derek and I said, hey, the President wants to know why you're not on the White House card. He said, politics. That's why I'm not. Derrick Lewis is incredible. And I said, he wants you on the card. You want to fight on the card? He said, tell him thank you, I'd love to. We get him on, we put him on the card. Now we got to find him opponent. And this crazy fight plays out that night between Curtis Blades and Hokut. And it was an incredible fight. They're literally putting Hokut in the ambulance. And Mick goes back and says, you want to fight Derrick Lewis on the White House guard? And he said, yeah, the fight was literally made that night during the fight. But my point in the story was, you know, he doesn't. It's just we don't have, we don't do that.

[Just Hilarious]

So your relationship with Trump is bigger than business, is actually personal?

[Dana White]

Yeah, absolutely. We have a real friendship, not some type of, of, you know, he has lots of friends, especially now that he's the President. We don't have that. We've had a, a 25 year real friendship and real relationship.

[Just Hilarious]

Don't be a Glazer, though, Dana.

[Dana White]

Don't be what?

[Just Hilarious]

A glazer. Like just somebody that just tells him he's great. A yes man, basically.

[Dana White]

Yeah. I don't think anybody's ever accused me of being a yes man. And, and I think that's, that, that, that's part of. But listen, I'm not an overly political person either. You know what I mean?

[Just Hilarious]

And, and so are you part of the MAGA movement culturally?

[Dana White]

What do you mean culturally?

[Just Hilarious]

Are you part of the MAGA movement culturally? Do you align with their ideologies and their values?

[Dana White]

You know, I, I consider myself right down the middle or leaning a little liberal, to be honest with you. Everybody thinks I'm some far right guy because of our relationship. You know, I'm, I'm, I'm more about common sense. I'm a common sense guy, and if it makes sense to me, then I'm probably in.

[Just Hilarious]

When you say you only want to do business with people you're aligned with, are you talking about values, politics?

[Dana White]

I'm talking about loyalty. I'm talking about sponsorship I had some crazy go on with some sponsors during COVID and when I was supporting Trump, you know, for election. And my thing is, I get it, you're spending, but don't, don't, don't ever tell me personally who to vote for and who not to vote for. As an American, it's your right to vote for whoever you want to vote for. And I'm not going to be, you know, put in a position where I got some sponsor calling me, telling me who I can and can't vote for and who I can and can't support. Yeah. Oh, yeah, it happened. Yeah.

[Just Hilarious]

But that's what I mean when I say political alignment impacting your business, but you don't care.

[Dana White]

No.

[Just Hilarious]

You said you don't give.

[Dana White]

No.

[Just Hilarious]

What if all your sponsors pulled out?

[Dana White]

That sponsor's gone.

[Trap Dicky]

Oh, wow.

[Dana White]

Yeah. Yeah. What if all of them, they don't have enough money to do business with me. Gone.

[Angela Oakley]

Damn.

[Trap Dicky]

Damn.

[Just Hilarious]

What if all of them pulled up? Would you then tell your friend that he got to change some things?

[Dana White]

Well, if you, if you look at how you are in the way that you think and imagine somebody coming in because they, they sponsor your show and start telling you who to be and how to act and who to vote for and who to.

[Charlamagne Tha God]

Yeah.

[Just Hilarious]

No, no, I can't do.

[DJ Envy]

It wouldn't happen.

[Dana White]

Exactly.

[Just Hilarious]

I can't.

[Dana White]

Exactly.

[Just Hilarious]

That's not the question I said.

[Dana White]

But, but what if it impacts your business and what if it impacts you as a.

[Just Hilarious]

That's what I got to think about.

[Dana White]

100.

[Trap Dicky]

Yeah.

[Just Hilarious]

Yeah, yeah.

[Dana White]

There's not much to think about. You, you either want to be that person or you're not that person. I don't think you're that person. But, you know, somebody starts. There are, There are lots of sponsors out there. Right. When you get somebody that comes in and starts trying to do that to you.

[Ad Voice 3]

Yeah.

[Lauren LaRosa]

Was there.

[Dana White]

You gotta go.

[Lauren LaRosa]

Was there a conversation with your sponsors or anybody on the business side when that video went viral of you and your wife in the club?

[Dana White]

Yeah.

[Lauren LaRosa]

And with the slapping you, slapping her, slapping you.

[Dana White]

Yeah. Yeah.

[Lauren LaRosa]

When they reached out to you, what did they like? How did that conversation go?

[Dana White]

We didn't have any sponsor problems during that. My wife and I jumped on that immediately. And again, that was more of a. We had to deal with our kids with that one. When you embarrass your children on a global level, you know, that's, that's one of the worst things that can ever happen to you. I didn't have any sponsorship problems with that.

[Lauren LaRosa]

I was at TMZ at the time when that video went up and, like, the whole debacle and like, you know, whatever. And one thing I will say is your relationships have afforded you a lot of, like, empathy and grace. Like, the way that they handled that situation with you and allowing you to speak out for yourself, like, as it was published, I had never seen that in my time being in the newsroom. Oh, that was like a. That was my first time ever realizing, like, relationships can change a narrative 100. And they reported it honestly, but they allowed you to at the same time that the video is going up, you're speaking for yourself and apologizing. And I was just like, wow. I always told myself I ever got a chance to meet you, I would really want to talk to you about that, because I'd never seen that before.

[Dana White]

Interesting. Yeah, I. We were apologizing to our children, my wife and I, when that happened. I think that a lot of the people that I've been in business with and, And. And that I'm friends with know, know me really well. And when I got back from Mexico, yeah, it was like, it was 64 days of just, you know, people getting hammered. Yeah. I mean, and. And I had to. I live in Vegas, so I was waking up at like, three in the morning every morning because the east coast is cracking off at 6 o' clock with all the, you know, talk shows and sports shows. And, you know, I had. I had to make the rounds and, and, and, and do all the interviews. And, you know, I say this all the time. You find out who's who and what's what when the hits the fan. And I learned a lot about a lot of people during that time, and mostly a positive way, not negative.

[Charlamagne Tha God]

If.

[Just Hilarious]

If a UFC fighter was caught on camera.

[Dana White]

It's happened. Oh, it's happened.

[Charlamagne Tha God]

Oh, God.

[Just Hilarious]

And that's why you would they have been treated.

[Trap Dicky]

Yeah.

[Dana White]

You know what's funny is that it's not funny, but I used to say that you don't recover from those. Those are. Those are. Those are ones you don't recover from.

[Just Hilarious]

But you did.

[Dana White]

I did.

[Just Hilarious]

Do you think being the boss protected you from consequences, that employees are athletes?

[Dana White]

No, definitely not.

[Just Hilarious]

No. Definitely. Dana, come on.

[Dana White]

Definitely not.

[Just Hilarious]

Yeah.

[Lauren LaRosa]

You made the choice publicly not to excuse yourself from the brand.

[Dana White]

You chose publicly to not what to

[Lauren LaRosa]

excuse yourself or give yourself 100.

[Dana White]

Well, listen, there's a board of directors. There's, you know, there's other people that, that are involved that, that could have pushed for that. But, yeah, I think that, and I, obviously they think too, it would have, it would have hurt the company more if I, if I did step away.

[Just Hilarious]

And you've disciplined fighters for public behavior that was unbecoming to the company before, right?

[Dana White]

Well, I mean, I'm, I'm probably the most lenient, you know, the most lenient guy in sports when it comes to, to dealing with, you know, whether it's free speech or bad things that happen. And, you know, I'm in the fight business, not like I run Microsoft. You know what I mean?

[Just Hilarious]

So, so what standard did you hold yourself to in that moment?

[Dana White]

Yeah, listen, I've, obviously, that's not, that's not what it was. I mean, it's as bad as it could get. I mean, I, I, I, I hold myself to. I would never in a million years think that that was going to happen. And I say this all the time. Nobody knows you better than your kids do. And, you know, your kids, whoever you really are, your kids see it, they hear it, everything that goes on at home. And, you know, how did they react to that incident? Because my oldest son didn't talk to us for, like, four days. We had to, you know. And how old was he at the time? He was, he was in college, so, you know, he was 19, probably. Yeah.

[DJ Envy]

Wow.

[Dana White]

19, 20. And, you know, we, the first thing that, that her and I did was handle the situation with the kids. And then obviously I had to handle the business side of the, of the whole thing, but, yeah, we, we handled the kids first.

[DJ Envy]

How did power slaps get started?

[Just Hilarious]

That's a terrible segment. I'm conflicted right now. I think it was great, though. It was great. I think it was great.

[Lauren LaRosa]

Power slaps in the ring.

[Just Hilarious]

I thought he was talking about.

[Lauren LaRosa]

I'm like, yo, not y' all just be out here power slapping.

[Just Hilarious]

I, I think that was good.

[Lauren LaRosa]

I.

[Angela Oakley]

Wow.

[Dana White]

Well, let me tell you. So in 1718, I was on Instagram, I saw these guys slapping, and it was coming out of Russia and Poland. And I was like, holy, this is crazy. But what fascinated me is that I would stay till the end to see who won. And I started to get into it, and, and that I called my old partners, the Fertitta brothers, and I said, have you seen this slapping stuff? I'm into it. I, I think, I think I could do this. And, and, and think this could be big. And literally, they said, how much money you need? I said, I need a million bucks from, from both of you. So all three of us put in a million dollars, and here we Are.

[DJ Envy]

You know, we kind of. We kind of started that. This is about 30, I'd say, 25 years ago. We used to do this thing called Slap Festival, and people would slap each other for tickets.

[Angela Oakley]

Damn.

[DJ Envy]

And we did it for, like, a good year.

[Angela Oakley]

Tickets to where?

[DJ Envy]

A concert. Like, so you'd stand there, but there was no referees. It was just us doing it, and it was huge. And then we got a letter from, I guess what, the fcc, one of the sponsors. You can't have. Like, this is like battling, fighting with no refs. But it was huge. So when I seen it, I was like, wow.

[Angela Oakley]

Damn.

[DJ Envy]

People get hurt with that, though.

[Dana White]

Yeah. Oh, yeah. People get knocked out.

[DJ Envy]

They get knocked that fast.

[Dana White]

It does a billion views a month.

[Angela Oakley]

Jeez.

[Dana White]

Power Slap does a billion views a month, and it is a sponsorship machine kills it.

[DJ Envy]

Well, the fight goes down this weekend.

[Just Hilarious]

Yeah.

[DJ Envy]

And.

[Just Hilarious]

And I just want to say, Dan, it was a great conversation. I do believe, though, that powerful men like yourself don't really see what's going on in this country, especially with your own fan base of usc. And I'm realizing there's a bubble that, like, you know, know you all exist in, and I want you to come out of that bubble sometimes and see the pain that you're. Your own people are going through. That's why. That's why when you look at. When I look at all of the things that have happened, attack the tariff inflation and the SNAP benefits being cut and Affordable Care act not being extended, the tax inequality that exists in this country, you think about all the federal workers that, you know, got fired because of Doge. That's why Trump got booed in Miami when y' all walked out.

[Dana White]

He didn't get booed in Miami.

[Just Hilarious]

Yes, he did.

[Lauren LaRosa]

There's a debate about that. Miami.

[Dana White]

He did not get booed.

[Just Hilarious]

Was that AI, too?

[Dana White]

He did not get booed in Miami.

[Trap Dicky]

Yeah.

[Dana White]

Yeah. The place erupted in Miami.

[Lauren LaRosa]

No.

[Angela Oakley]

What was the.

[Just Hilarious]

I saw a video of him getting booed. Maybe it was AI. I don't know.

[Dana White]

Yeah, he definitely didn't get booed.

[Just Hilarious]

Next time you walk out and you walk out on your right side, if you hear any booze, just know the reason he's getting booed is because of what's happening in this country. And you're his friend. So I just want you to be aware of that so you can maybe tell them, like, hey, man, maybe you need to listen to your constituents.

[Dana White]

If. If I had the, you know, my fan base. I'm pretty dialed in with my fan base. When you say that I live in my bubble. I live in my UFC bubble. But nobody, no fans and people that I interact with all the time has ever come up to me and said, I'm hurting, man, that, you know, the president isn't, isn't doing this or isn't doing that. It's never happened.

[Just Hilarious]

I think that's going to change. And when it does, remember we had this conversation.

[Dana White]

Absolutely. I would. And, and I'll tell you this, if it does happen, I'll get with Lenae, will reach out and I'll tell you.

[Just Hilarious]

All right.

[Dana White]

This is what happens.

[Just Hilarious]

Absolutely.

[DJ Envy]

Well, thank you for joining us this weekend. You can check out the fight in Newark this weekend. There's a fight in Vegas this weekend. Appreciate you for joining us.

[DJ Envy]

[Lauren LaRosa]

I'm the homegirl that knows a little bit about everything.

[Just Hilarious]

She be having the latest on the Latest with Lauren LaRosa. Sometimes you have facts, sometimes you have details. Sometimes you have a little bit of everything.

[DJ Envy]

Well, it's the loot brought to you

[Just Hilarious]

by Top Dog Law on the Breakfast Club.

[Lauren LaRosa]

Talk to Me versus went down last night guys went down in la. Rick Ross versus French Montana. And I' ma just say it. I was very surprised at how much French Montana cleaned up house in the verses.

[Just Hilarious]

Killed it.

[Lauren LaRosa]

And granted, we know that they both have really big records and catalogs, but I didn't think that it would be such a easy like clear, okay, this is the person that won.

[Just Hilarious]

But I didn't see it. That's what happened.

[L]

Yes.

[Just Hilarious]

In my opinion, French Montana did that to Rick Ross.

[Lauren LaRosa]

Yes. Because I just feel like Rick Ross's music selection wasn't right. He didn't choose the right. Like they only have a couple songs. They're doing 10 songs. He didn't choose the right songs. Rick French Montana on the other side, he came right in with all of the anthems, the hooks. Like it reminded you that he's been the person making a lot of these Songs big from west coast to the east coast for years.

[DJ Envy]

Most people forgot a lot of records that French rocked out to like he did all the way up. People forget he's on Fat Joe's record all the way up. He did.

[Just Hilarious]

That ain't his record though. So he came out there with just a lot of features. Hot and all that stuff.

[Lauren LaRosa]

Yeah, he did that. He did.

[DJ Envy]

In verses. You do your not just your records. You do your features as well. You do your verses.

[Angela Oakley]

I ain't know you do that.

[DJ Envy]

Yes, you do. Absolutely.

[Just Hilarious]

Yeah.

[DJ Envy]

You do your features. He did that. He did the hot iga. He did, did. Like I said, all the way up. What else did he did? He did his verse on asap. Forgettable. Yeah, he got a lot of records people forget about.

[Lauren LaRosa]

Yeah.

[Angela Oakley]

What about the max B joint like ever since you left me?

[Lauren LaRosa]

Yeah, that was actually there on the same level.

[Just Hilarious]

French is on a lot of people records that people forget about.

[Angela Oakley]

Yeah.

[Just Hilarious]

Don't say he got a lot of records. Well, look, but he got a lot

[DJ Envy]

of verses that people forget about.

[Lauren LaRosa]

When you watch it this weekend, if you do take the time to watch it this weekend, I know it's mother's day weekend, let me know what you thought about it.

[Just Hilarious]

I didn't think that a 10 for 10 would be more competitive.

[Lauren LaRosa]

I just think it was Ross's lineup. It could have been a different and better for him. But in other news, speaking of the stages and performing, I thought that this was so fire. So it was announced yesterday that Usher is going to be hiring interns on his tour that he's going on with Chris Brown for the first time ever in his career. And I know you hear that, you're like, okay, it's entertainment, it's interns. But this is a big deal because it's the first of its kind of a program like this to happen. So it's basically Usher turning the tour into a work workforce development initiative. So they'll bring in interns and they're going to be working with his non profit in the greater boys and girls club of Detroit to launch this initiative. And they'll be teaching these students live touring. So they'll get to do everything from production to wardrobe across the tour with these huge names and entertainment. I thought that that was fire. Yeah, you said it's the first time

[Angela Oakley]

he ever did it. But I don't think I've ever even heard of this being done before.

[Lauren LaRosa]

I mean, tourists have like stagehands, production assistants and stuff like that.

[Just Hilarious]

Of course.

[Angela Oakley]

But I'm saying Like, he is getting, like, interns, you know, like, know you. He's going and hand picking the people to do this.

[Mimi Brown]

Yep.

[Lauren LaRosa]

And then I think that's dope. The students, you know, ages 18 and up, there'll be 10 of them that'll be selected, and they'll get the tour and just learn all these things firsthand. And it's a way that he is, like, opening the door to the live entertainment industry. So that's dope. And Chris Brown's album came out today. Speaking of. Yeah, so Brown is out now. I want to play. He has a intro on. On the album. It's called Leave Me alone. And he's addressing a lot of what we've been seeing, you know, opinions this

[Angela Oakley]

year again and again and again.

[Lauren LaRosa]

Yeah, it's gonna be good. I'm excited today.

[Angela Oakley]

Go and take a listen. And we can't just breeze past the COVID The album cover.

[Lauren LaRosa]

Oh, the Michael Jackson.

[Angela Oakley]

The Michael Jackson. He is paying homage. Listen, Brown is out now.

[Just Hilarious]

I ain't heard of this excited in months.

[Angela Oakley]

Damn. I've been very excited. But, yes, I'm even more excited that he's dropping. Yo, we got so much music to look forward to on, like, Chris is just phenomenal.

[Lauren LaRosa]

I'm excited. And those tickets are on show for the tour. I'm just saying let her have her moment.

[Ad Voice 1]

All right.

[Lauren LaRosa]

Show it.

[Angela Oakley]

I'm excited.

[Lauren LaRosa]

Now, in other news, shifting gears a bit, but still kind of standing in Atlanta realm. So Real Housewives of Atlanta, Pinky Cole, we had her here on the show discussing a lot of the issues that have been happening behind the scenes with her business in her filing for bankruptcy. Well, yesterday it was announced that the CFO of Bar Vegan, which is a company that she has ownership in, was indicted for theft in. In a theft and forgery case. Now, there's a clip that has been going viral from Real Housewives of Atlanta, where Pinky gets into it with Angela Oakley, who's another one of the housewives on the show, and they bring up the money issues. And I'll talk about why I'm connecting these two. Let's take a listen. I have a lot of money.

[Angela Oakley]

My husband is paying no employees.

[Lauren LaRosa]

Okay, Turn your fan on Christmas for my employees.

[Just Hilarious]

What are you talking about, baby?

[Lauren LaRosa]

How you doing to cancel?

[Just Hilarious]

What are you talking about?

[Lauren LaRosa]

You owe employees, baby, I don't owe no employees at all.

[Angela Oakley]

How much do you owe your foreclosures?

[DJ Envy]

I don't owe them anything.

[Lauren LaRosa]

They took them from you, baby. You owe everybody from the people across the street. I owe you a new lace front.

[Angela Oakley]

Hey, Mr. Clean.

[DJ Envy]

Don't do it, Papa Smurf.

[Lauren LaRosa]

And I owe you some new veneers, okay? Cause that overbite that you got going

[DJ Envy]

on your teeth combined the ancestral teeth you got.

[Lauren LaRosa]

Don't do that.

[DJ Envy]

You would forget that these are grown ass women.

[Angela Oakley]

Yo, yo. Both, like, have businesses and who both understand that you have to take losses when you have businesses. I just hate that they're trading blows over taking Ls in business. But it's not really, you know, like every business owner, if you ever ran a successful business or business that didn't, that wasn't a success, you know that it's. Ls that you take in business and they're both still successful.

[Lauren LaRosa]

You know what you sign up for when you hold that peach, though, baby, you know exactly what you sign up for.

[DJ Envy]

Now I just hate it.

[Angela Oakley]

I'm happy to hear that she did have a window, but I'm trying to figure out the CFO that she put in place to do this. Yo, what? Did he not have any?

[Lauren LaRosa]

Like, So I spoke to a source close to Pinky, and in this video, when Angela Oakley says, you owe your employees. One of the allegations against Pinky Cole was that bar vegan in Atlanta, she owed a lot of her employees money for damages and like, just different things. She had to settle out because they weren't being paid the way they were supposed to be paid. So this cfo, basically a source close to Pinky, tells me she had hired him. Him. But early on she put a million dollars into bar vegan. And she was just trying to learn the business as she was building out her restaurants. And basically this guy who was supposed to be really trusted, really good at what he does, did what he wanted to do with the money, and now the feds are involved and they're investigating him. But she says it. Or in that audio, you hear her say, oh, I don't owe anybody anything. And the source is basically telling me that because she was the face of it and she put the money into it, people are throwing this on her.

[Angela Oakley]

She's the one that's taking a hand.

[Lauren LaRosa]

But he was the one that was moving funds and doing things the way that he shouldn't have been doing. But this is a lot of the reason why. That was Angela Oakley and Pinky from Real Housewives. Pinky Cole.

[Just Hilarious]

Which one is your source, Angela? Pinky?

[Lauren LaRosa]

I don't. My source is a source close to Pinky.

[Just Hilarious]

Okay.

[Lauren LaRosa]

Yes. So they're trying basically. Basically this indictment, though, is A lot of the conversation she's been having about the money and why it's been mismanaged, this indictment is basically showing that, like, a lot of that wasn't her fault. Now you can ask, well, why did she hire this person? How did she not know? But she wasn't directly running this business day to day. It was just something she invested in. And she came in once, it messed up and tried to allocate money in different places, and that messed her up, which is why we see the bankruptcy and things of that nature. But they be getting on Real Housewives about it. So.

[Angela Oakley]

Yeah, man.

[Lauren LaRosa]

Shout out to Pinky, girl.

[Angela Oakley]

Shout out to Pinky.

[Lauren LaRosa]

Blessings your way.

[Angela Oakley]

And for everybody who was worried about the Miss Juicy, I know know that everybody wanted to know about her. She was arrested a few, like, I think last week. Who? The Miss Juicy. The famous little person. The famous lady, you know, everybody.

[Just Hilarious]

It's a little person.

[Angela Oakley]

Okay, well, the little person, you know, she's. I love. I love Ms. Juicy. We all know her.

[Just Hilarious]

Some of your best friends.

[Angela Oakley]

[Angela Oakley]

No, I'm not. No, I'm not doing none of that. Please. No, but. No, don't y' all run up on me.

[Lauren LaRosa]

Is she okay?

[Angela Oakley]

No, but, yeah, she okay. But she was driving, I guess, like, with no license or something like that. But everybody was worried about it. They had to. They had the COVID to the front, you know, like her arms and wrists to the front or whatever, because she, you know, little for her size.

[DJ Envy]

What was she driving?

[Angela Oakley]

You know, one of them little cars, whatever cars.

[Just Hilarious]

They be getting a Mini Cooper.

[Angela Oakley]

No, that's too big for them. No, no, man. But yeah, she's safe. And I ain't like how they had her all on the news talking about because of her size, they had the. To cuff her wrist to the front, like, what?

[DJ Envy]

All right.

[Lauren LaRosa]

You know, so glad she okay.

[DJ Envy]

C H U D. So you already did your. You already did your jail math. You, you read, you've calculated how much the time. How much time you gonna get.

[Charlamagne Tha God]

I say that, but you know, I ain't really trying to do that. But you know, you never know what you're gonna do when you get approaching that situation. Man, we don't deal with a lot from white people, and for you to come up and provoke me and jump in my face, I don't know how I'm gonna react.

[Just Hilarious]

Yeah, I mean, you. You maced my. You mace a pregnant woman. You gotta get it.

[Angela Oakley]

Yeah.

[Just Hilarious]

Good morning. Who's this?

[Charlamagne Tha God]

This is Paul, Irene.

[Just Hilarious]

Hey, Paul, Irene. Who you want to get the biggest he to America? Okay.

[Charlamagne Tha God]

I would like to get the biggest he on to America.

[Just Hilarious]

Tell us why.

[Charlamagne Tha God]

Mainly because, I mean, I don't really care if you vote for Trump, Kamala, whoever, but in this collateral damage, because I know everyone didn't want Trump, but America got to get it. Y'.

[Mimi Brown]

All.

[Charlamagne Tha God]

Y' all instilled a leader, quote, unquote. A leader who portrayed himself as Jesus. He told y' all he was gonna, like, make this new dancing room with his own private funds. And now $1 billion of your own tax money and gas is high. Started a war. He did the Jimmy Dolan shaking bank on the whole continent. You know, laughing, caring America got. We all done.

[Just Hilarious]

Why you. Why you talking like you're not in America? That's what I said.

[Charlamagne Tha God]

I'm a dummy, too.

[Just Hilarious]

I'm a dummy.

[Charlamagne Tha God]

I don't know what else to do with the gas.

[Just Hilarious]

I just see the gas.

[Charlamagne Tha God]

I'm like, oh, damn, $5, $6 is crazy.

[Just Hilarious]

Well, I mean, listen, that's. That's the thing about living in this country, right? Like, whether or not you voted for a person don't matter, because you still got to do deal with the consequences of the president's actions regardless.

[Charlamagne Tha God]

Exactly. Exactly. Oh, and I'm sorry before, because I know envy likes to bang on people real quick. May I please also say, with the X Files, you gotta check out Sasquatch products.

[Trap Dicky]

It's a.

[Charlamagne Tha God]

It's a podcast about people who tell the encounters, the stories about when they encounter Bigfoot.

[Just Hilarious]

You ain't gotta tell me twice. I'm gonna watch it. But I will say that this. It's hard for me to listen to episodes about Sasquatch. I'm the guy that's stuck on all the Sasquatch TV shows.

[Charlamagne Tha God]

This, I, I, I swear this is better. Like, I'm convinced. I don't like to say I believe, but I'm very convinced they exist. When you hear these people's encounters, it don't sound like it's got to be real. Like, what, do these people think they might be aliens?

[Just Hilarious]

No, I don't think they're aliens. I mean, listen, Bigfoot is just a primate in the woods. Like, like think about all of the crazy primates we see in the jungle. Why is it so far fetched to think that it's just a primate in the woods?

[Charlamagne Tha God]

Exactly, exactly. But then why the government hiding it? That's the only thing that don't make sense.

[Just Hilarious]

That is. That is true. That is true. But I, I watch all. I watch Finding Bigfoot, Expedition Bigfoot, Sasquatch on Hulu. I watch all of that.

[Charlamagne Tha God]

This is the best one, hands down. I think you got that Squash Chronicles and. Oh, and shattering light like, please check it out. That's the comic book I gave you. I don't like to bother people, but it's. I think you better like it. Like, I really think you're gonna like it.

[Just Hilarious]

Okay. I'm gonna check it out, my brother.

[Charlamagne Tha God]

Okay. You already got it. I gave it to you.

[Just Hilarious]

Okay.

[Charlamagne Tha God]

That's a memory. Yeah.

[Just Hilarious]

Yeah. I'll tell you another good movie too. Sasquatch Sunset. You ever saw that?

[DJ Envy]

No.

[Just Hilarious]

Oh, man. It came out a couple years ago. You gotta watch Sasquatch Sunset. It's not a documentary though. It's actually movie about a family. A big family feet. I guess you should call them big feet. If it's more than one. Good morning. Who's this?

[Charlamagne Tha God]

Elise.

[Just Hilarious]

Elise. Oh, Lord.

[Angela Oakley]

Exactly.

[Just Hilarious]

Go to the one who you want to get the biggest heart to. Elise.

[Charlamagne Tha God]

To the owners of Percy and Willie

[Just Hilarious]

In Florence, S.C. what is Percy and Willie? Let me look that up. What's that? That's a.

[Charlamagne Tha God]

It's a restaurant. Okay, so a food critic went there. His name is Ben. A critic? Critic. He's very well known. Whenever he walked in the restaurant, everybody knew him. Like he was getting so much love. And the owners just came up and

[Lauren LaRosa]

told him he had to leave.

[Charlamagne Tha God]

And when he asked why, they said, because you're videoing. And we don't allow videoing in here. And proceeds to turn around and say, call the police. Like that man did something.

[Angela Oakley]

Wow.

[Just Hilarious]

I'm watching it now. Video shows confrontation is blood. Black food critic says he was pushed from South Carolina restaurant.

[Charlamagne Tha God]

Yes.

[Just Hilarious]

Yeah, Percy and Willie.

[Charlamagne Tha God]

Everybody was in there showing him love. Like, very well known. He's awesome.

[Just Hilarious]

Is that an actual policy? Do they not allow. I don't see how you can not allow videotaping in 2026, everybody videotaping something.

[Charlamagne Tha God]

Exactly. I really believe it was because he was a black man with locks and they was just profiling.

[Just Hilarious]

I mean, there's plenty of black men with lockdown blocks in Florence, South Carolina.

[L]

Yeah.

[Just Hilarious]

Maybe it was because of the disruption he was causing. Not causing a disruption, but you know. Yeah, I don't want to say disruption.

[DJ Envy]

I'm watching the video now. It wasn't a camera crew. He just had his camera.

[Just Hilarious]

I don't mean disruption, but you know, like everybody like getting excited when they saw him and stuff like that.

[Charlamagne Tha God]

Right. Even one of the. The hostess came up to him and was like, I have a waitress that wants to wait on you. So we got a table for you. They specifically want you because it's you. Wow.

[Just Hilarious]

So what y' all going to do? Y' all going to stop going to Percy and Willis?

[Charlamagne Tha God]

I. I'll never go there. Well, I don't. I don't live there, but I would never go there if I did go.

[Trap Dicky]

Where you live?

[Charlamagne Tha God]

Well, I'm from North Carolina, but I live in Florida now.

[Just Hilarious]

Oh, so you just minding South Carolina business is what you're doing this morning?

[Charlamagne Tha God]

Definitely.

[Just Hilarious]

Okay. Nothing wrong with that. It's a good story to amplify, cuz I didn't know nothing about it. Thank you for calling.

[Charlamagne Tha God]

Thank you.

[Just Hilarious]

All right. Salute to the benefit. I don't know. I don't know him. I'm just. This is my first time seeing him because of this Percy and Willie situation.

[DJ Envy]

Well, that was donkey of the day.

[Just Hilarious]

Yes, indeed.

[DJ Envy]

Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy. Just hilarious. Charlemagne the guy. We are the Breakfast Club. Lauren Laros is here as well. We got a special guest in the building.

[Just Hilarious]

Hawksville, South Carolina Zone Charlamagne saying South Carolina.

[DJ Envy]

South Carolina all day, ladies and gentlemen. We got Trap Dick in the building. Welcome, brother.

[Trap Dicky]

Let's do it. We here.

[DJ Envy]

How you feeling, man?

[Trap Dicky]

I'm feeling good. I'm here at a Breakfast Club. You know what time it is? There you go, my Carolina brother. In here we live.

[Just Hilarious]

Yes, sir. New project, the ville out. You said it's a old to all Vils.

[Trap Dicky]

Yes to all vills. You know how it is. Especially coming from the south, it's a bunch of vils. But it ain't just for Myville, you know, you got Nashville, you got Louisville. Even in New York, you got Brownsville. It's everywhere. Even in California, you got Victorville. So it's like it ain't just for my ville, but in the south and North Carolina, there's a bunch of them.

[DJ Envy]

Now that you signed a tde, how difficult was it coming out from our artists from South Carolina? Cause we don't see too many artists that really cross over into the charts of South Carolina. How Difficult was it for you?

[Trap Dicky]

It feels good, but it was a blessing. It wasn't so much difficult when you really got the love behind you. Like I say, you got people from Carolina. Carolina. Support Carolina. And we show love to any entertainment, any entertainer. So it's like we pay good. We love to see people. So it's a blessing to see me make it this far. But I don't feel like it was difficult. It's just putting in hard work and

[Just Hilarious]

hospital smaller than where I'm from. Yeah, I actually was in hospital. I sent him a picture of the hospital a few weeks ago because I went to the. The racetrack in Darlington. So you had to go through hospital? And I stopped at some place to eat.

[Trap Dicky]

Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. Probably Yogi Bear.

[Just Hilarious]

I don't remember the seafood spot, but Harold's like six square miles.

[Dana White]

Oh, yeah.

[Trap Dicky]

Mayflower. You went to Mayflower? Went to Mayflower.

[Just Hilarious]

Mayflower. Hartsville's only six square miles. What's the population?

[Trap Dicky]

7,000. It ain't nothing but one gas. No, two gas stations open after 12, probably. Or one Walmart, one high school.

[DJ Envy]

So everybody know everybody?

[Trap Dicky]

Yeah, everybody. Granny know everybody.

[DJ Envy]

Granny for sure. For sure.

[Trap Dicky]

It's crazy. Fetty walk. Grandma knew my grandma. That's how I was able to just link with Fetty. Cause it's like, everybody Grandma know everybody. Everybody.

[Just Hilarious]

For real? For real.

[DJ Envy]

That's crazy. How did you get to td? How did td? How'd you sign with td?

[Trap Dicky]

It was a blessing. An intern on Shout out to say Cheese, Sean Cotton. I used to pay for the promo all the time. And my intern from TDE was asking Sean Cotton about, hey, what you got new? And they sent him trapped Dicky. And it was just so happened that they liked the music. Wow. And just went with it.

[DJ Envy]

Well, congratulations, man. The record is moving up the charts. Crazy, man. It's a blessing.

[Just Hilarious]

One thing, I love that trap did, man. In Hawkesville, you paid off your grandfather's foreclosure.

[Trap Dicky]

Oh, yeah, yeah.

[Just Hilarious]

I think it was $60,000.

[Trap Dicky]

Yeah. I'm telling you.

[Just Hilarious]

But from there, you begin to just buy multiple properties in the neighborhood you grew up in.

[Trap Dicky]

Yeah. Cause you never know, like, when these houses be so old, your grandma beat them, paid for the house about three, four times, paying rent. So when you ask them how much the house is and they sell price, you like, damn, Damn. Might as well just buy the house. Just going through that made me really get into it. Like, if I'm gonna pay 60,000 to keep house, I might well find some houses in the hood. They all cheap. I'm about to keep buying houses. I just kind of gotten a liking to it. That's why I kept doing.

[Just Hilarious]

And you bought a whole block for just you and your family?

[Trap Dicky]

Oh, yeah, definitely. My little brother, his grandma died. So when his grandma died, he was just like me. He was into it, like, hey, how much you think my grandma house is? And when he found out it was on only 16,000, it was like, damn, wow. So he went ahead, we bought that one. We asked the neighbors, we started like, you know, people lived for so long, when they died, their family don't even be around. So we seeing all these old people die left and right, we just start asking, hey, I'm gonna sell the house. Food just kept buying them back to back to back. So eventually it's a, we got six houses or three houses on one block, and there's only six houses on this block. So if you own four houses on a block of six, you. Damn, they're on the block.

[Just Hilarious]

So you renovating them? The, the, the, the.

[Trap Dicky]

Oh, that's for us.

[Just Hilarious]

Okay.

[Trap Dicky]

Okay. I can tell who can park here. I can tell what you doing down here? If you ain't coming to one of these houses, what you doing down here?

[Just Hilarious]

That's if you can't say you own your hood.

[DJ Envy]

Nope.

[Just Hilarious]

If you don't really own your hood.

[Trap Dicky]

Yeah.

[Just Hilarious]

I'm so sick of people saying it's mine. But you ain't got. You don't own nothing here.

[Trap Dicky]

Yeah. Your name ain't on no prospect property. At least I can say my brother name on so many properties over here. You can't be here without us knowing. Like, it shouldn't be no reason to police down here. Nothing. If we ain't got no phone call

[Lauren LaRosa]

and it's yours to always come back to in the midst of all of this stuff that you got going on now, right, like, you can go home and really, like, put your feet in the ground and it's all, it's really yours.

[Trap Dicky]

Oh, definitely. I was walking anytime of night, you feel me? Cars bumping, music turned up to the max. Only we can call the police.

[Lauren LaRosa]

How are you balancing all of that, Right? Like, as you rise and you're able to do all these things for your family, but also balancing the super stardom that you're walking into, like he just

[Trap Dicky]

said, it ain't nothing but 7,000 people. That was like, they already knew who I was before. If it's 7,000 people, 3,000, 2,000 people probably know my mama 500 gonna say, yeah, I'm gonna go pull up on them. If I say pull up on them. So it's like I gotta be mindful of what I'm doing. I gotta be respectful to what I'm doing. If the mayor can call my phone and say, hey, what you doing? I know I gotta be respectful, you know what I'm saying? Like, it's too small. So I look at it as exactly what it is. They being new. I. I better act like I know

[Lauren LaRosa]

was there shocks when you got. When the rest of the world started catching on to you, though. Like when it's like you're traveling to these different states and all these different places and it's like it's not 7,000 people no more.

[Trap Dicky]

Oh, man, it's. It feels good. But I still look at it the same. Like if I've been getting attention from back home, I look at everybody just like family. I just keep it going. I say my haze smile and keep it pushing on. I don't try to. I don't think I took it all in yet. I just. I'm grinding, I'm in grind mode. I'm chasing. So it's like I really don't feel it, you know, So I just keep going.

[Lauren LaRosa]

Yeah.

[Just Hilarious]

What part of your music comes from survival versus entertainment?

[Trap Dicky]

I can say, like my deepest music come from, like when I'm in that bag though. Like when I'm home in the studio, that's when the survival music come instead of just a hit record. You know what I'm saying? When you know you're chasing that hit, you chasing it. But sometimes I feel like even like the baby you give that survival music of what you really feel when you home. That's why I think he stay home a lot because he really feel. He feel good. You feel like he in that bag when you at the crib, when you know you can be home.

[DJ Envy]

What was your inspiration? What made you wanted to. To dibble and dab in the rap game at first?

[Trap Dicky]

Oh, my little brother. My little brother, really? The rapper? He the one that was beating on the desk and all that. I just got tired of paying for studio time. He went, going. I'm steady paying for studio time. He ain't going. Like, I know he rapping about what we doing. I can put it together someway.

[DJ Envy]

That's how it went and that's how it went doing. Were you ever nervous? You talk about what you were doing with the part of South Carolina that you. You're from is so small, where everybody knows everything. So it's not like Anything's a secret. Like, oh, we know what. We know what Trap's doing over there, you know? I mean, were you ever nervous for that?

[Just Hilarious]

Damn right.

[DJ Envy]

Because it ain't like it's a big city. Be like, I don't know what he's doing on that side of things.

[Trap Dicky]

Definitely you. Every day, you think it could be the day, Especially when you're young, you never know. Like, it could be the day they come, bro. Just come pick you up right now. You feel me? So it's like you just. You living in the moment, but you still praying like, I hope it ain't me.

[DJ Envy]

When was the day you decided to say, you know what? I'm giving that up?

[Trap Dicky]

I can't lie. When I. When I really started getting to, like, big in the music, when I seen a million views and I seen people tell me, like, bro, you really can do it, I was like, it's really time to just sit my ass down. Like, for real.

[Dana White]

For real.

[Just Hilarious]

How old are you? 20. How old are you?

[Trap Dicky]

25 right now?

[Just Hilarious]

39. On the album, you said that, you know, your pops is proud of you because you just basically live longer than him, so.

[Trap Dicky]

Yeah.

[Just Hilarious]

How old was he when he.

[Trap Dicky]

He died at 17.

[Charlamagne Tha God]

Wow.

[DJ Envy]

Yeah.

[Trap Dicky]

He died at 17. Like. Like, basically. That's basically what I'm saying. On Hartsville, you. You could die so young because it's. It's right there. Everybody know everybody. But like I said, he was a preacher slang, so it ain't. It ain't enough. It's. Anybody can get into it. Anybody can get into it. But, yeah, he died at 17, so.

[DJ Envy]

And you.

[Just Hilarious]

You got shot? Shot before?

[Trap Dicky]

Yeah, I got shot at 21. Oh, I got shot in the crossfire. Actually. My little brother shot me in a crossfire.

[Just Hilarious]

Oh, it's your little brother being a

[Trap Dicky]

Wrong place, wrong time.

[Angela Oakley]

Wow. What was that conversation like?

[DJ Envy]

It was after, right? Yeah, you shot me.

[Trap Dicky]

I didn't fall or nothing. So it was like a. Like, oh, I thought a piece of the tree or something hit me or something. So it was like, I couldn't believe I got shot.

[Angela Oakley]

So what kind of gum is that you throw? The piece of the tree fell on you?

[Trap Dicky]

Yeah, I thought it was like a little piece, like, you know, commotion, we playing basketball, shots going down. I'm just thinking, like, oh, snap. But then I realized when I looked in the mirror, like, oh, snap. I think I done got shot for real.

[Angela Oakley]

Damn.

[Trap Dicky]

So I end up just going straight to the hospital and telling them, like, I got shot.

[Angela Oakley]

Damn.

[Just Hilarious]

And it was cross by who the. Don't even matter

[Lauren LaRosa]

who was going to tell your mom because neither one of y' all was going to tell her.

[Trap Dicky]

Oh, yeah, I had to make the call. Me and him looking. I just called her. She said it on camera before. I called her like, mom, I got shot in the face. And she. She like, for real. I like, yeah, I think I gotta call you back. I think they want to ask me some questions. So, dog, I don't think she started, like, tripping until she couldn't reach me. She was like, you seem calm. I like, you better be calm. I'm straight.

[Angela Oakley]

But what did she say when she found out it was her other son?

[Trap Dicky]

Oh, I ain't tell her. We ain't tell about that till afterwards. It was just like, my mama never worried about what we was doing. She already knew what kind of kid she had. I ain't the only son. Like I say, I done been charged with a big boy charge. Her daughter been charged with a big boy charge, so she already knew these her kids. I'm gonna just answer the phone. I gotta press one, you know what I'm saying? So she respected what we was doing. We weren't bringing no trouble to her house.

[Lauren LaRosa]

So she.

[Trap Dicky]

She went tripping.

[Just Hilarious]

What's harder, making it out the streets or mentally adjusting after you get up?

[Trap Dicky]

Mentally adjusting once you get out because you. You have so much fun and your homeboys be still in. So you got a really mental adjuster. No, I gotta leave. Like, you really, like, you gotta get in your mindset. Like, damn, I really can't be here no more. Like, no matter how fun it is, you'd be like, damn, I really gotta leave. So that thing. Mentally adjusting is way harder than being, like, being in the streets or anything.

[Just Hilarious]

But you say you're not leaving, though.

[Trap Dicky]

No, I. I done left the streets now.

[Just Hilarious]

Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.

[Angela Oakley]

But just.

[Just Hilarious]

But you just still being in the same area.

[Trap Dicky]

Oh, yeah, Carolina. Yeah. Like, I ain't gonna say I stay in Harle. You know, I've moved 30. You know how it is. A town of town. I can move in another town, gated community where the police patrol at all you feel me? So that's what it is. All I did was move 30 minutes away. Right.

[Just Hilarious]

Do you think audiences can tell the difference between somebody who really lived it and somebody who just pretending to have been all right?

[Trap Dicky]

That's. They stay away from people that they feel like really living, because that what they feel like somebody. They really feel on that type of timing or really on that Right. They stay away from that. But I would if. If. If I know I'm not on what they own. I'm not gonna go around the people that's. I feel like on that peripheral, I'm gonna stay away from that.

[DJ Envy]

Now you got seven kids.

[Trap Dicky]

[DJ Envy]

The villa's out today. Make sure you go pick it up. And it's the Breakfast Club is trapped. Dicky.

[Ad Voice 3]

This past weekend, like every other Sunday, you were on the court with the guys, playing ball. Just a pickup game, living out your hoop dreams. No triple doubles, but a mean set of threes in between buckets. One of the homies mentions he closed on a new crib. This is big. And while everyone's asking about the housewarming and making plans to celebrate, you're asking the real questions, like, has he spoke to his State Farm agent yet about coverage? See, home ownership is one thing, but the right coverage is the real game changer. Even more than your last hot streak is how you protect your legacy. Dropping buckets and bars on the court. A State Farm agent can more than assist you with finding the right coverage for your new place. If you have a claim, your local agent can help you file it. Yep, that's right. Over the phone, in person, online, or on the app, they're ready to help you. And they don't drop the ball, if you know what I mean. Like a good neighbor, State Farm is there.

[DJ Envy]

it's time for Pastor Oaks.

[Just Hilarious]

Big Nyla Young 1990 now.

[L]

What's up?

[Mimi Brown]

How are you?

[Lauren LaRosa]

What's going on guys?

[Angela Oakley]

Good morning girl.

[L]

Nyla, I'm excited because a lot of music dropped today. Okay, yeah, from some of the the bigger artists like Chris Brown, period. But then also my boy Nico just dropped the single but Nico Brim. Yeah, but it's not on DSPs yet. You know people are doing things behind the paywall to get more bang for their buck right now, but definitely go check that out.

[Just Hilarious]

Salute to my guy. Nico Burn One is the young up and coming MCs out of New York City, New Jersey area?

[L]

Yes, but there's another upcoming rapper who's coming out of the Atlanta area named Suave.

[Lauren LaRosa]

Who?

[L]

Yes, your cousin.

[Just Hilarious]

I'm not familiar.

[Angela Oakley]

Your cousin.

[L]

Well, I don't know, I think they're related. They both got South Carolina roots. But anyway, Jermaine Dupree is on the intro of his project, and I thought it was really, really tough. So I'm going to just play the first song. It's called Back to the Trap freestyle.

[Angela Oakley]

Yeah, I like that.

[Just Hilarious]

Hey, I think it's disrespectful that I wrote that verse and he had JD do the intro to that song. I'm not acknowledging that Suave is one of the most talented artists, you know, not just coming out of Atlanta, period. I'm not acknowledging that until he starts acknowledging the fact that I write 75% of his music.

[Angela Oakley]

You really wrote that song, Charlemagne?

[Just Hilarious]

Cuz I'm lying mad versus for Suave, giving him ideas and he don't acknowledge me. So I'm not acknowledging that he's one of the most talented, probably next person to blow in this whole culture. Until he acknowledges the contribution, nobody's taking. You know, his rap name was Dizzy.

[DJ Envy]

His rap name was Dizzy Van Winkle.

[Just Hilarious]

Acknowledges my contributions to his art. I'm not acknowledging how talented. All right, Dizzy.

[Angela Oakley]

Dizzy Van Winkle.

[Lauren LaRosa]

Yeah.

[Just Hilarious]

I'm just letting you know, Suave, until you acknowledge my contributions to your art, I'm not acknowledging how talented.

[DJ Envy]

Taking you serious?

[L]

I haven't listed as Dizzy.

[Just Hilarious]

Maybe just letting them know.

[Trap Dicky]

Know.

[Just Hilarious]

Just letting them know.

[L]

Okay.

[Angela Oakley]

I like Shorty, though. I like that. That's dope.

[L]

Okay, Fire. All right, this next one is from South Carolina, Trap Dicky. This is his first project under tde, but you know, he signed to TDE a few months ago. But this record is called Jacker.

[Angela Oakley]

That's why his ass got them seven kids. But now that's fire, though.

[Just Hilarious]

Salute to my guy, Trapp, Horseville, South Carolina's own man. You know what I would like to see? I would like to see Trap, Dicky, Suave, maybe. And you got to acknowledge me first. But Trap, Dicky, Suave, Lori, I would like to hit him on a record together.

[L]

Oh, really?

[Just Hilarious]

Trap, Dicky, Lizi and Suave. I'd like to hit him on the record.

[L]

You're not about to just leave Ruben.

[Just Hilarious]

Produced by Suave. Oh, Reuben would be tough on the record. Oh, that'd be tough. Reuben, Suave, Lori and Trap. On a record together. Produced by Suave. That's tough.

[Angela Oakley]

Where ly from?

[L]

New Orleans. A very southern record.

[Just Hilarious]

Covering Tough, Cuz Ruben, Charlotte Lorizi, Louisiana. Suavez is Atlanta.

[Angela Oakley]

Yeah, that's covering a lot of South Carolina.

[Just Hilarious]

Somebody need to put that together.

[L]

Yeah, I agree okay, next one. We're gonna keep it. Well, take it back to Atlanta. Deontay. Hitchcock dropped his project, and this record is called Funny Thing.

[Mimi Brown]

What?

[Just Hilarious]

Dropping a Clues Bomb for Deontay.

[DJ Envy]

This is why.

[Just Hilarious]

Listen. This is why.

[Angela Oakley]

Yeah, I was confused.

[Just Hilarious]

I think he might have orgasmed on himself. Because, man, y' all don't understand. Nyla just played suave.

[DJ Envy]

Right Trap Dicky.

[Just Hilarious]

Right, Deontay Hitchcock. I hate when people have these hip hop is dead conversations and they be like, man, there's no music out here. Ain't nobody rapping. Y' all ain't listening.

[L]

They not listening.

[Just Hilarious]

None of these guys. You played, like, super new. Yeah, they knew, but they not super new. Y' all not listening. Y' all waiting for Iceman to. On you face.

[DJ Envy]

What?

[Lauren LaRosa]

What? What?

[Ad Voice 1]

I'm just saying.

[Just Hilarious]

I'm just saying, like, everybody's stuck in an era. There's a whole new wave out here that y' all not paying attention to.

[DJ Envy]

Coming next. We're talking this week.

[Angela Oakley]

Right on, everybody.

[L]

Honestly, I do. You know, I don't know if Drake is done standing next to people, but there's some great people for him to stand next to right now.

[Mimi Brown]

There's a whole new.

[DJ Envy]

I think Drake is hurt. I don't think he's standing next to anybody anymore.

[Angela Oakley]

Damn it.

[DJ Envy]

I think damn everybody he stood next to.

[Angela Oakley]

Yeah, Stab me in my bag.

[DJ Envy]

That's right next to, though.

[L]

They're all connected. You gotta rock with a new class. Yeah, you came from a class like that.

[Lauren LaRosa]

I'm just saying.

[L]

I know he ain't gonna do it. He probably jaded. But somebody did tell me that the album was really, really good

[DJ Envy]

albums.

[Just Hilarious]

Nobody, nobody ever said Drake. Drake wasn't Drake.

[L]

Yeah.

[Just Hilarious]

He just got his ass kicked in a rap battle.

[L]

Yeah, it happens.

[Mimi Brown]

Yeah.

[L]

I'm looking forward to it, though. We need something for the summer, but. Okay, this last one I gotta do is az. AZ just dropped his project today. I really like this record with Moo Moo Fresh, but he also got one on there with Nas. But, you know, everybody loves a NASA Easy collab, so the records cost so high.

[Angela Oakley]

I like it. I like it.

[Just Hilarious]

Yeah. Easy. Whole project. Yeah, yeah, Easy whole project. A whole project is dope, man. That's why nyla is young 1990 now. Okay? You played three new artists and then gave us a OG veteran artist. You know what I'm saying? Complex. Stop playing. All right. I don't know. Y' all had Nylon on the list two years ago, and then y' all been sleeping the last couple of years. What the hell is the problem?

[L]

You know they hate me because of that podcast episode I did with you.

[Just Hilarious]

Really?

[Angela Oakley]

Yeah.

[L]

Brilliant.

[Just Hilarious]

Oh, it's okay.

The Black Effect Podcast Festival once again returned to Atlanta for another celebration of black voices, culture, storytelling and community. The festival also hosted the Black Marketplace presented by Shopify, where black owned entrepreneurs set up shops to promote and sell their products. All right, my girl Mina, we are here. Stir and mix it. Yeah, so it's definitely a luxury brand first off. And because we're also a brand, that's. Oh, okay, okay. So that's giving you. I know you made this, but I feel like you should smell this again too. This is amazing. Thank you. Now I see the difference in the packaging. Right. Which is very important, like, especially like on a website. So what the difference is is again, going back to my Shopify experience. When you go online at Shopify, you are able on our website to pick what type of candle you like. So we have our three wick. You know, those are more for, you know, higher ceilings, bigger homes, because the smell is going to move throughout the space. Yeah. So like, you wouldn't want to put a three wig candle in a bathroom, you know, because it's a smaller space. So this is one of our popular fragrances. I just grew up today. I grew up so much. Like, I feel like now I can step into my homeowner phase because I know where the wicks go. Okay. When you come to my house, don't touch my candles, because they're put somewhere for a purpose. It's all about the presentation and the intentionality of the product. Why did you trust Shopify as a platform to bring your brand to life? Well, for one, Shopify is a trusted brand. It was important to be where I know I can be trusted and I can get the opportunity to be creative because I am not tech savvy at all. Shopify made me think I have wings and can fly with all the things that you can do. And so now to be at a position where we've elevated our brand, doing variants now and discount codes, you better use them experiences, you better use them. You be on Shopify, you be on the back end of your own business. That's entrepreneurship for real when you in it yourself. Okay, so, so how has Shopify helped you pivot from building brands in the corporate sector to now building your own brand? Well, because it gives me an experience with my own particular brand. Shopify allow allows us to give our customers that added experience. So it just allows us to be able to have a way to connect at whatever level your brand is at. So as we elevate, our templates have changed. They've gotten a little more, you know, strategic with how we promote the brand through Shopify. Well, thank you. Congratulations and girls, thank you so much. We gonna go to the website and get the right wicks for each room because if they slap amazing mixes. This is Mina Starks. Thank you, thank you, Lord. Shout out to Shopify for helping make that possible. Turning ideas into businesses and businesses into something that can actually last.

[Angela Oakley]

Oh, you love a Civic?

[DJ Envy]

No, no, I love the fact that. That people have the cars that, like, they started with, like, Ludacris put his Acura. You know that Acura, the first Acura he had. He put his Acura in my car show one time.

[Angela Oakley]

But it's souped up, ain't it?

[DJ Envy]

Like, he knows, just a regular back in the day Acura that he used to drive, and he kept it and restored it. But, yeah, he had it in the car show one time. We have all types of stuff. We've had two Chainz gave me his tank one time to put in the car show.

[L]

Damn.

[DJ Envy]

He also gave me. Remember that pink car when he did the. It was like the. The pink trap house. It was like a pink car outside of a trap. He gave me that one time. Yeah, but, I mean, we've got everything. Like, French Montana gave me a Bugatti before. Like, it doesn't matter you if it just, you know, people like to see what other celebs drive in their cars and things like that. So, yeah, it doesn't matter what type of car it is. We just love to have it at the car show. It's just something dope for people to see. So get your ticket now. Where you at this weekend?

[Angela Oakley]

I'm enjoying Mother's Day this weekend. Yeah. My foundation is giving an event in Baltimore, my Hometown. We're honoring 60 women in power. We're gonna have the mayor's wife there, Governor West Moore's wife there. You know, amongst other women Heavy hitter, matriarchs in the family, man, so that's gonna be dope. I'm gonna honor my mother and honor a few of my close friends, you know, who have businesses and things like that. But, you know, because the name of the event is called Women who Pour, so you got to pour into each other. It's just gonna be a great, great evening. It's a dinner. It's gonna be a great evening of love and laughter and, you know, just women congregating, you know what I'm saying? But, yo, salute to Maury Povich. I sat down with. With Maury yesterday, and he was telling me about how when y' all had him up here, y' all used to, like, bully him into giving money to certain charities.

[DJ Envy]

Yo, and I think we might have did that once or twice.

[Angela Oakley]

He said, yo, he said twice. I'm just saying how much money more

[Just Hilarious]

he done made off black people? You goddamn right.

[Angela Oakley]

But that's what he said.

[Just Hilarious]

You think we going to do the Dana White? What you talking about?

[Angela Oakley]

He was not playing. He was like, I. I specifically remember more than one time, you know, because they feel like, you know, I've made so much money off the black community that they would bully me into giving money. And he said, not only would, you know, they bully me to give in one time, they'll go back and it wasn't enough. They'll come back and bully me and ask for more.

[Just Hilarious]

Because we do something every year called Change for Change. Change for Change is we raise money for different organizations. One year we did the Thurgood Marshall College Fund. I know. One year we did Brandon Marshall's 357 Mental Health Organization.

[DJ Envy]

One year we did some HBCU fun.

[Just Hilarious]

I think we did. That was the third Marshall Marshall. We raised damn near a million dollars that year. I can't remember what else, but, yes, he was serious. Yo, Mar hit Maury up.

[DJ Envy]

He definitely remembered that Eminem gave us some money, too.

[Angela Oakley]

Y' all had him on the show when he gave money. All right, damn. Y' all calling on Fuck the phone bullying him.

[Just Hilarious]

No, I wasn't bullying.

[Angela Oakley]

It's just like, bully the whites for the bread.
