Yes, it's Friday. How y' all feel out there? I feel blessed, black and highly favored. Happy to be here another day to serve our beautiful listeners. Good morning. Yes, good morning. How you guys feeling? I gotta just complain for a hot second, man, having kids and animals is not a thing that you put together. I try to give my son Jackson responsibility. And I said, you take care of the dogs in the evening. I got him in the morning and afternoon. So he was taking care of the dogs. They have like a little area where they can run. And the dog's got a broom. Now instead of Jackson, who is 12 years old, taking the broom out, he leaves the broom in. The dogs chew up the broom, which doesn't go in the digestive system. So when I come downstairs, Digestive system. So when I come downstairs in the morning, it smells like ish. And there's poop all over, everywhere downstairs. So since 4:00' clock this morning, I've been mopping, cleaning, scrubbing poop all morning long. I smell like poop right now. So anybody out there, if you have kids and you have an animal or you're thinking about getting an animal, if you don't want to take care of that animal 247 all the time and you think you won't give to your kids responsibility? It's the oldest trick in the book. Dad, I'll help. Mom, I'll help. They never help. So I just wanted to suck in the poop. So you actually see the broom in the poop? Like pieces of. Yes. That's how I knew what it was. That's what. That's exactly how I knew it was. They chewed it up. That's the first time you seen some wood and some poop? Jesus Christ. It's a Friday. Freaky, freaky, freaky Friday. Jesus Christ. Well, good morning, guys. Listen, it's a beautiful Friday today. We have some icon livings that will be in the building. Look at you. You are Stephanie Mills. And Ms. Patti LaBelle will be here, okay? Because they start the second so smitten over Stephanie Mills. That's bae smiling and all that. And Ms. LaBelle, that's those baes right there. But, yes, they start the second leg of they queens on September 19th, so they'll be here. Gladys Knight is also on that tour, but she wasn't hearing this conversation. No, she wasn't in this conversation. So we'll talk to those queens, those legends, those icons in a little bit. But when we come back, we got front page news. Mimi will be breaking down everything, so don't go anywhere. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy. Jess, Hilarious Charlamagne, the guy we are the Breakfast Club. Let's get in some front page news now on Thursday Night Football. Did y' all see the game last night? No, I went to sleep. I saw some of it, but then I went to sleep. By halftime, I was in bed by 9:30. Now, I don't even know who played last night because it wasn't on tv. It was on the prime, right? The packers and commanders played and The packers won 27 18. I'm gonna tell you something, man, and I said this last week. I know it's early. Green Bay packers going to the Super Bowl. You know how I know they're going to the Super Bowl? Because that's just the way things are when, you know, a great Dallas Cowboy player leaves and goes to another team because of Jerry Jones, too. Pity. Okay, Michael Parsons and the Green Bay packers will be in the super bowl this year representing the NFC. Like you said, they won 27 18. The packers are two, and all commanders are one and one. What's up, Mimi? Good morning, everyone. How you doing? Good morning. Peace. Happy Friday. All right, so we start this morning with the latest on the murder of conservative figure Charlie Kirk. The manhunt continues for the suspected gunman who killed Kirk on the campus of Utah Valley University. Now officials have released a new video and photos of the shooter showing a man climbing down from the roof of where investigators say he fired the fatal shot before walking away from the scene. At a press conference yesterday, Utah's governor Spencer Cox says this investigation can't move forward without the public's help. Let's listen. We also continue to implore the public to support this investigation and come forward with any information. We are truly hopeful that this video and new photos will lead to even more tips. We are processing. We have an incredible team, a state and federal team working together to process those tips. Tips. We are going out in, in tandem to interview any potential person of interest or. Or suspects. But we need, again, we need as many as much help as we can possibly get. So so far, authorities say they've received more than 7, 000 tips and the FBI is offering a $100,000 reward for information leading to an arrest. Investigators have recovered what they believe was the murder weapon, a high powered bolt action rifle. And it was found in a towel in a wooded area near the campus. And that rifle is being flown to the FBI's lab in Quantico for DNA and fingerprint testing. And the suspect is believed to be college aged. He left behind shoe prints and a palm print, but no one is in custody as of yet. Officials say this was a targeted political assassination and the governor vowed to pursue the death penalty if the case goes to trial. Kirk was 31 years old. He co founded Turning Point USA and became a prominent figure in the conservative youth movement known for defending broad gun rights and stirring controversy on college campuses. Meanwhile, his body was returned to his home state of Arizona aboard Vice President J.D. vance's plane. And Donald Trump, we mentioned yesterday, is ordering the flags to fly at half staff through September 14th and will posthumously award Kirk the Medal of Freedom, the Presidential Medal of Freedom, which is the highest civilian honor. Now, lawmakers from both parties have condemned the assassination. Top Democrats are calling for unity and urging that people will not to stop pointing fingers. And there are concerns about safety already throughout Washington with lawmakers canceling town halls and other events as just out of abundance of caution. Yeah, please, please hurry up and catch the, catch the individual who murdered Charlie Kirk. Because the longer free, the more and more conspiracy theories we get and all the conspiracy theories do is cause more division and may create more violence because you start pointing the finger and blaming people who don't have anything to do with this situation. I mean, we don't even know who the suspect is. I think it's crazy for, you know, the left to be blaming the right and the right to be blaming the left and people to be pointing fingers at this person. I've heard everything from, you know, I've heard them blame Israel. I've seen them say he was taken out because it's a distraction to the Epstein files. I heard it was a gun club that thinks he's despawned Satan. All of that is nuts. We don't know anything until you find the actual person who did it. And then also something that we always say when you see something, say something like, when I look at things like this and even when the President got shot, like nobody seen anybody climbing up that thing or walking through the thing or nobody seen him jumping down oh, no, they did. There's a lot of video of him. They got videos of him. I've seen a few videos of him yesterday. Even with the video of him on the rooftop, like people seen him on the rooftop and nobody said, hey, let me call the police. Because that doesn't look right. Like we need to see. When we see something, even if it looks halfway funny or even if it's any remotely left, say something like that, point it out, call it out, let's double check, let's triple check. And if it's nothing, it's nothing. But in situations like that, I would. I would have loved to see some of these things get stopped, you know, but you know, they should have been treated. They should have been treating him like they would treat, I guess, a government official like this political person. Yeah, they should have been scouring those roofs. Yeah. Yeah. Very sad. All right, well, for sure. All right, well, we'll. Yep. We'll Talk more at 7. We'll talk about a new trend that's pushing more people toward online shopping. And we'll tell you what that is at seven. Everybody else, get it off your chest. 800-585-1051. If you need to vent, phone lines are wide open. Again, 800-585-1051. Get it off your chest. It's the Breakfast Club.

No, you're not gonna break a heart. It's okay. Well, her heart will probably be broken, but you can't do it at the expense of your own heart. You can't stay with her. Leave her alone.

Yeah, well, that's the thing. When I go to these venues, you have a rider. And the rider means it's the equipment that you're supposed to use. It was an older bar. They didn't have the right equipment. It didn't work. They didn't want. They wanted me to leave, but I was like, I can't leave. I still stayed. I still took pictures and spoke to people and all that. That was like two, three years ago. I know exactly what you're talking about. We still had a good time. The food was amazing. But they. The equipment was working. I can't. If the equipment don't work, I can't make it work. I don't come with equipment. I just come on my laptop, brother. But I'm sorry you had a bad experience. You should reach out to that.

In the music, though. Y' all said y' all want to hear some music. Hoodie, by the way, Lauren. Oh, this Del State hoodie. That's fire. The color scheme would. These are the Del State colors. Would you like one? You deserve one for your endowment. Investment in my new endowment that'll be coming for Delaware State University and some scholarships. I feel like we should drop a Clues bomb because he compliments her. He never. It messed me up so mad so bad, Jess. I forgot what I was talking about, you know, it's not a problem. Something's coming after. No, it's not. We don't have enough time. It's just a tease. We gotta cut them off before it comes pause. We got the latest With Lauren. When we come back, it's the Breakfast Club. Good morning, the Breakfast Club. Morning, everybody. Is DJ Envy. Just hilarious. Charlemagne, the guy. We are the Breakfast Club. Let's get to the latest with Lauren. Lauren becoming a straight fat. She gets them from somebody that knows somebody. She gets the details. I'm the homegirl that knows a little bit about everything. 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. Well, it's the latest on the Breakfast Club. Talk to me. So Young Thug dropped some music. Everybody's been saying, put it in the music. Put it in the music. And here he is addressing things again. So he dropped the song, man, I miss my Dogs. And he is talking about everybody that we've heard these jail calls about. Just people in his personal life that he's going through with Drake, Mariah the scientist, little baby, future 21, Savage, Gucci Mane and his family. So we have the track. I want to let you guys listen to parts of it. Let's take a listen to Young Thug on Little Baby. He says Little Baby's not answering his phone calls. Me a spider. Taught you everything you know about this. God told you in the Bible, the devil a knife. You rats already winning, don't let us you're real, but you do real and hide it. Gave a couple hookins on this case and 5,000 living with that lawyer and never speaking about it. I wish the world knew everything, man. Just like how 1,000, a trillion. I like the direction he's going in. You know, I was born in 1978, so when I see Young Thug, man, I miss my dogs. I immediately think of Lil Wayne. I miss my dog. So, you know, I can't hold it to that standard, but I like the direction he going in with it. Yeah, I mean, I really like it if you. You could actually read the lyrics. I think he posted the lyrics as well. Yes. You could tell he's going through pain. He misses his friends. He misses his friendship. And he wants it back to how it was and the fact that he's being so honest. But can I ask a question, though? Different. How he missed him already. It hasn't even been a week since them calls dropped. Like how you missed. He missed him already. Maybe it's been that long. Like if they fell out after a week, I mean, he said he's been falling out. That was the thing. Maybe they had been fell out. Yeah, but, you know, the calls just started. That's what I'm saying, like, you missed it like that already. But a lot of the stuff. Yeah. And a lot of stuff he was talking about on the calls. Maybe there was things happening while he was locked up that was culture friction. You know what I mean? So maybe this. This is a long time coming. Thug need to go ahead and add Gun into that list too, though, because we know you miss him too. And. And it's good that he's doing this record because the reality is they are stronger together. Thug baby 21, gun of future. Yes, Those. Those. Those individuals are stronger together. They can all survive on their own. But it does look dope when they all collaborating with each other. Yeah. Also on a song, he talks about Mariah the Scientist. He talks about her as well. And missing. You got that clip. Yes, we have Thug talking about Mariah the Scientist, who definitely deserved an apology. A bunch of them. Let's take a listen. The song actually starts off with that verse. Go ahead. Jess said I was playing when I was on the phone in jail talking about you. I was just playing. Gotta say something. I mean, I know they probably going through it. Oh, no, he didn't say it enough. Yeah, but now this is cool, though. This is cool. And I ain't. I ain't mad at him. I think we all know when your lady, your wife, your girlfriend is about to leave and you trying to get it back, you're gonna do whatever it takes to make sure it's right. Right? I've been in that situation. I'm sure Charlamagne been in that situation. Man, stop putting me in your situation. I sure like when you do that. We know y' all were up here. Don't put me in your situations. Okay, y', all, we know Mariah was Ray Lee. Mariah wasn't Ray. That. That is. That is his girl. That is. She just stayed down. She. She probably wasn't ready to leave. You know, he just probably still owed her and a public apology. He felt like, you know, and just gave embarrassing public. You apologize. Has anybody responded? Has anybody he talked to responded? Yes. So. Well, not said something, but I was supposed to. Champagne, probably. Drake and 21 Savage liked the post when he posted the lyrics to the song. Okay, so, I mean, that. That's a good sign because he. He did address 21 here as well, too, or spoke to 21 just how well he is. He talked about Gucci and he gave, you know, a nod to his family as well for holding him down. But yeah, they like the post. Really good sign there. You know what I mean, but one person that he did not mention in this was Glorilla, even though we saw the apology. Hold on. One more thing. I want to say. Thug, when you gonna do a record called Man Watch out, okay, you need to get with Metro Pullman, okay. Into a record called Man Watch Out. Okay. And that might need to be your reply to Glorilla. Go ahead, Glorilla. There is this song circulating right now. It's an alleged diss track. We don't know if it's Glow or Glows or not. It may be AI, but it's good. Let's take a listen. I think that's a. If it's not AI, it's something that she wasn't ready to come out yet. I thought. When I heard it, I thought it was AI, because I thought it could be. It was. It was good, but I thought it would be better for it to be Glorilla, like. I thought it would be better. It's good. I just got to understand. I don't think. I don't think that's. I think that's a. Well, it was circulating yesterday, and it could be a bop, but if she really did it. But I can't even really understand it. The whole song. She just throwing shots. Young thugs. But she also. If it is a real diss record, though, I'd say Thug gotta come out with Man, Watch Out. I'm telling you. A nice little club pop called Man Watch Out. Put Mariah on the hook because Mariah got a couple shots on here, too. She got a couple as well. But, yeah, I'll go get Young dro. Young DRO would be hard on a record like that. Man, Watch out. Okay, go get. Metro booming with Young Draw on the hook. Man, watch out. Little club banger for the win for the fall in the winter. That's how he reunite the A. Bring them all together on me. And watch out. Well, that's it for the first hour. Hopefully everything works out for Thug. And, you know, everybody pick. Starts picking up the phone again. All right, well, thank you, Lauren. Now also today, we're gonna allow you to pick up the phone, baby. Why he ain't say that? How you gonna tell when to pick up the phone? And you don't hit the. The obvious line. Pick up the phone, baby. Pick up the photo, baby. It's not funny. He's going through it. 805. Everything is funny. I don't want to hear that. Everything. I don't care that you don't like about Charlemagne myself, Jess, or you better not whatever it may be. What, what, what? 800 call up for them. It's the breakfast local morning. There's something special about folks who come through without being asked.

So like it's not like what do you get when a true crime producer walks into a comedy club? I know it sounds like the start of a bad joke, but that really was my reality nine years ago. I just normally do straight stand up, but this is a bit different. On stage stood a comedian with a story that no one expected to hear. On 22 July 2015, 23 year old man had killed his family and then he came to my house. So what do you get when a true crime producer walks into a comedy club?

Hey, I want to. I'm telling. Hey, I'm telling you right now, the Green Bay packers are going to the super bowl this year. That's just the way Dallas Cowboys luck works, okay?

I mean, listen, I don't know if it's going to be an amazing fight. I think that it's going to be a good fight. You know, the, the. It's a pick me fight for me. I just can't. It's hard for me to go against Terence Crawford just because I know Terence Crawford is special. But boy, this is an uphill battle for him. But it's just hard for me to go against him because of what he did to Earl Spence, because you could not tell me that Earl Spence wasn't going to beat Terence Crawford and he demolished Bud. So, you know, I, I, I. It's a pick me fight. Whoever win gonna win in the decision. All right, well. What's up, Mimi? What's up, y'? All? So, good morning. While authorities are continuing to search for Charlie Kirk's shooter, black colleges across the country were forced into lockdown after threats. So on Thursday, several historically black colleges and universities went into lockdown, including Alabama State, Virginia State, Hampton University, Southern University in Louisiana, Clark Atlanta, and Bethune Cookman in Florida. Spelman also issued a shelter in place order as a precaution because of its close proximity to Clark Atlanta. Now, the FBI says these were hoax threat calls, but warns that even false alarms can put innocent lives at risk. Now, Hampton, they canceled all non essential activities, including athletics, for both Thursday and Friday. And Virginia State told students and staff to remain locked down while authorities investigated Southern University, they canceled all campus events through the weekend. And on its entire Baton Rouge campus, including the law center, which was also ordered to shelter in place. Now, the Congressional Black Caucus called the threats vile and a chilling reminder that racism continues to target black institutions and urged the FBI and the DOJ to act quickly. Now, no injuries were reported, but school leaders are stressing the same message as something that you said earlier. Envy. If you see something to say something. I know for many of us this hits home as envy. You went to Hampton, one of the schools that was forced to shut down. Yeah, they're actually gonna, they're gonna shut down today as well. So Friday, Thursday and Friday, no classes. They're gonna resume classes on Monday. They're saying faculty don't have to come in today, but they're also saying some of the sports act of the sports activities in the student union will be open for kids to get food and to see each other. But they're gonna start classes, resume classes back on Monday. I seen that yesterday. Yeah. Yes. And black people don't have anything to do with this, so, you know, folks need to misdirect that energy to somebody else. Like those pictures they posted of the alleged suspect. That man was not black. Okay. Even that old man they first grabbed and said he was the killer. He was not black, so. So don't bring us into this. And also, this is why you have to be very careful and mindful of things you say and do. Because I keep telling folks, you know, it's Charlie Kirk today, but it could be somebody you love and support tomorrow. And Then what? Yeah, very careful with the rhetoric. According to a new survey, shoppers do not like when merchandise is locked up. I don't know if y' all have seen this, but by the time you go to the store, baby formula, shampoo, toothpaste, even basic toiletries, they are locked behind the glass. At your local store, you got to press a button, wait for someone to come. And depending on how long you're. You're waiting, it could take a while. So retailers say they are locking up merchandise because it's about preventing theft. But new data shows it's costing them sales and. And testing shoppers patience. So according to the National Retail Federation, shoplifting has skyrocketed. Skyrocketed with a 93% increase in incidents compared to four years ago, leading to a 90% jump in retail losses. That's why more stores are locking up those everyday essentials. But here's the flip side. Customers are frustrated. A retail dive survey found that more than half of shoppers have come across those locked products. And 27% say they just walk away or go somewhere else. And so while source figured that out, I was gonna say Jess, because I want to know. But while source figured that out, there's another big winner. Online shopping. Because people are like, I'm leaving. And they rather go and order it online because there is no wait. So what do you think when you go shopping and you see that? Because I'm. I'd leave. Yeah, well, look, back in the day, I know why that happened. Back in the day, yeah, we used to steal all this stuff, you know what I mean? So it's like, all right, I get why they put stuff like that behind glass, but now you have a low employment rate or. Or the people that work there don't feel like running back and forth to unlock the thing. So now that's a wait time on the customers trying to get what it is, and then honestly, they still be trying to steal it. Some people go in there with the intentions too. Still, when they see it's behind the glass and they know that it's going to take long for the people to. You know what I mean? A thief. One thing a thief don't have is time. You know what I mean? So they leave and they go. They go somewhere else. Yeah, it's whack that we got to pay for the sins of shoplifters. Yeah, that's essentially what it is. It also too, though, another time you don't like when something is locked up is when it's something you want to Be discreet about buying. You know what I mean? Yeah, for sure. Like the vibrators, the condoms. Well, plan B's behind the counter now, which is also kind of. I don't know why they did that. Because you got. I know. Now you know this information. What you mean? Never mind. Go ahead. This guy's crazy. I used to sell them. Don't come at me like that. I was talking about true, Jess. I'm talking about sure. All guy. You don't have eyes. You don't observe behind the counter. No. What are you talking about? Yes, plan B is behind the counter. And you got to ask the. The woman or the guy that works there, hey, you got plan B? And then they'll get the box and then bring the box and be like, hey, we got a discount. That's 10. We can get $10 off on plan B if you sign up. Like, God damn, man. Just give me the goddamn crazy. But they used to be locked up. I. You know, I haven't. Haven't had to look for any. So I don't. I didn't know they were behind the counter now, but they used to be locked up. Well, that's good. That's because you and Chris is trying to have more kids. Yeah, yeah. No, but charlamagne. That's a really good point. You literally let everybody in your business because now you gotta wait and then they give it to you and then announce it. Oh, my God. Anymore. So crazy. All right, well, that's your front page news.

All right, and when we come back, some queens, some legends, some icons will be joining us. Stephanie Mills, Patti LaBelle, and Chaka Khan. So tune in. Next, it's the Breakfast Club. Good morning, The Breakfast Club, everybody. Is DJ Envy. Just hilarious. Charlemagne, the guy. We are the Breakfast Club. Lola Rose is here as well. We're still kicking it with chaka Khan, Patti LaBelle and Stephanie Mills. Charlemagne, when y' all first started, did any of y' all think y' all would have these long careers that y' all would have had and still be on tour, still be in demand, still be relevant. I never did. I never did. Because I was always told, you know, dark girls don't. You know, After a while, they were like, oh, people are not going to promote dark girls. Or so I was always told, no, you can't do it. You do it. So I was always working against that. Right? Yes. You know, so I'm surprised because people didn't think I was going to still be here. And it's the 50th year anniversary of the Wiz. 50 years ago, I did the Wiz. Same thing for you, Ms. Lavelle. You didn't think he was gonna be here? No, I didn't. Why? Because I had an issue also with my being a black woman with a big nose. And a friend of mine got her nose done. And I said, oh, I think I need to try that. Maybe I'll get one gig. I tried it. I did. I had more than that. You could say it. I don't care. You came to my house. It was me. I had a nose. I had my nose done in the early 80s, and I had her house for dinner. And she said, what did you do? I said, what happened, girl? And she was like, I'm gonna get one. And I did. Right after I saw Stephanie. I didn't know you guys know neither one of y'. All. I got nose. I had to. And then she did. And God best her, she had Natalie. All of them do it. You know, all them girls do it. Yeah, but y' all don't need it. Y' all be. But that's the only cut my. You could not cut me for Nathan. But now I think I look like Shaka. Shaka and I could be sisters. So you never had nothing done either? Hell, no. You said you got a bbl. What's that? Tell Brazilian butler what all the young girls are doing. It's called a Brazilian butler. How long has my butt been like this? My whole life. Yes, ma'. Am. 60s,'70s? No. Right. I have the same behind I've always had. Somebody's trying to make their butt look like somebody else's. Within bbls, you call them? No, they look like ants. Somebody's got it natural. Yeah. That's why shock all her. So hold on, Ms. Lebel. When you got to nose job, did. Did you get more gigs? Did it change anything? I think you did. Really? Because it was more pleasant of some people. But when I Saw my girlfriend, I said, I'm gonna try that. And I remember that, too. Oh, so well. And I didn't want to tell people that you were my inspiration because I didn't know if you wanted me. Oh, I don't care, girl. I do. I don't care. Well, I'm talking now. Yes. Okay, so, yeah, this my girl. I followed her. Yes, I did. So who did you find? Did you do. Who did you follow? Michael. Michael. Okay, Michael. So after you got it, that's when you wanted to do it? Yes, I went to the same doctor. Wow. Michael took me to the chocolate like that. You didn't know that? She said, I didn't know me. Speak louder. Oh, speak louder. Michael. Michael Jackson. Yeah, that's who I followed, Miss. I mean, that's such an interesting conversation because, you know, all of these, everybody's doing it now, right? Thinking that it's going to get them ahead in some way, shape or form. Oh, they just. This is something that's been going on. Yes, it has. That's the only thing I've done, something that people shouldn't be ashamed of if, if they want to do anything to their body or their face. This is all I've ever done. I ain't getting cut in the world. No, that's it. And that was early. It was early 80s, because people get nervous. They say it's addictive. Like, once you get one, then you got to do something else. You got to do something. I think Michael got a little addictive, you know, But I didn't, I didn't go back. He had nose problems. So you didn't have any problem like, like with. He didn't. Okay, maybe not. It's just amazing how the, the, the, the industry standards of beauty have seemed like they've never changed. Kind of heartbreaking to see that even back then, y' all were falling victim to what they thought. Well, they wanted you to look a certain way. I've always been told I should sing pop songs, but what is pop songs but popular? That's right. You know, and I love my audience. So I just stayed true to who I was and stayed focused on what I wanted to do as Patty and, and, and Glattus, you know, who has more hits than both. All of us. She has a billion hits. My girl, Miss Patty LaBelle. Was, was it when you decided that you want to get your nose job? I know you said you didn't like your nose personally, but were things being said to you as well? Yes. By who and what? By a manager that I had at the time. Sh. Face is hilarious. I can't help that. That's all good. I love it. It's all right. Yeah. It was a manager that I had back in the day, a white gentleman, and he, he said so many things to me, but whenever I sang, he said, my God. I said, is it all right if I keep this note? You know, things like that. He was just mean. And where is he? I slapped the not living. Now he's going, bye, bye. Oh, yeah. So, yeah, you know, so I just said, I'll do it once I saw her. Yeah. You'd be surprised what female artists go through. What we have to go through to even do what we do today, to, to have people respect us, to respect our talent, to respect that we're women and we're black women and it's harder, but you have to demand the respect. Ms. Khan, you never faced any of those same struggles. You never faced any of those same struggles. I don't know if they did. They never told me. They said none to me. But I know, I'm aware of the stigma, you know, that black women go through. I'm aware of the whole situation. But no, I, I, you know, I. You didn't have to do. You've always had a reputation of not taking no from what I've been told, that's exactly true. She look like she beat your ass. Ain't no time, you know, life is short. It's no time. So honesty, integrity, all those things are very important to me, you know, so that's all I can say about that. Did you always have that confidence or was that something that just you. I was, I was over time. I knew what I wanted to be, sort of when I, when I was a kid. I mean, I left, I ran away at 16. I didn't finish high school. I pretty much knew what I wanted to do. And my dad said, but you don't want to go to college. I said, I said, no, I don't need to. He said, well, you can read, right? I said, you know I can read, dad. We used to read the same books, my dad and I. So he said, well, that's cool. He said, you could just read what you want and be that. I said, yeah, if I want. I didn't know I wanted to be an entertainer or a singer, but I knew I wanted to be, to work with people. I really wanted to, I wanted to be a lot of things when I was a kid, but I really wanted to be hands on people, so I get to do that. Too. And to sing. All right, we got more with Stephanie Mills, Patti LaBelle, and Chaka Khan when we come back. It's the Breakfast Club of the morning. Everybody is DJ Envy. Just hilarious. Charlamagne, the guy. We are the Breakfast Club. Lauren Larose is here as well, and we're still kicking in with Patti LaBelle, Chaka Khan, Stephanie Mills, Charlamagne. Ms. Mills, we saw you earlier this year. You called out the Essence Festival, and I thought it was constructive criticism, you know, it wasn't like you was just bashing him. Why did you feel the need to do that? She did that. I was so happy. Keep going. Because I was there the whole weekend, and I saw all the acts, and it was just very poorly run, and it didn't show respect to the artist, you know, And I remember Essence from Susan Taylor and Mr. Lewis, and it was always prestigious and ran with respect, and that just was not there. So I could not sit and let them accuse, you know, people for being late. When it was them that was late and running late. I just. I. It bothered me. And at 68, I really don't care what people think about me. I'm gonna stay and do what I want to do. I feel like I've earned that right. Absolutely. So I. I wanted to call them out, but I did it respectfully. I didn't want to be ghetto about it. I. I wanted to be constructive, and that's what I did. Well, they said they were going to fix it. They said they. They were getting down to the bottom of the things that went wrong, and they were going to make sure that they fixed it. I'm glad. I'm glad they took full, you know, accountability. Patty was there. Yeah. That's awful. It was awful. Yeah. So when I saw what you did, I said, go, girl. Keep on talking. Yeah, don't stop. Yep, she tells me, keep on talking. Don't stop. Yeah, you have a lot to say. So you know what you do, Ms. LaBelle, you got it in privately or did I what? Did you say anything to them privately or no? No. And I had one song with Jill Scott. Right. I couldn't chat too much about anything because I didn't have a set of my own, you know, so I knew somebody would take care of it. I felt like I spoke for everybody, you know what I'm saying? I feel like. Because I'm not afraid. I don't have any fear. I only fear God. So I'm not afraid when people say, oh, if you do this, you're going to be blacklisted. I'm black already, so you know what I'm saying? I don't, I don't really care. I put on my glasses and see if I give a damn about it. You were there the whole weekend, so you seen a bunch of artists. I've seen a bunch of artists. I saw what they did. I saw how late they were putting the shows together. And I had incidents with, with the, the owner's daughter. And I didn't talk about that, but it was just not respectful. I was going to ask what, what artists are you loving right now that, that you seen since you watch a lot of the shows. There are artists right now that just came out that you like. I person, that person's doing an amazing job. I love Jasmine Sullivan. I love Selena Johnson. I love, I love Layla Hathaway. You know, I love, I love a lot of the singers, but I see, I listen to a lot of the old. When I'm singing to get ready for my shows. I'm doing Ashford and Simpson. Gotcha. And I do them because they sing the melody but they still go around it so they stay in the pocket. And that's what I, that's what I try to do. And then I listen to my songs so I could sound somewhat like I sounded back in the day. What about you, Chaka Khan? Is there artists right now that you like or B artists that. Yeah, I would like a lot of them. It goes on. But I really like her. Her. She's special. Yeah. We're gonna do some stuff together. Really? She's really. She's the closest thing to Prince that's so far. Wow. Patti LaBelle. Who do you feel honey? I don't know. Young people. So many. So many. Yeah. I mean I do love Coco. Oh yes. Coco Jones. Oh wow. Singing full honey, you know, like so many is. I mean she sings her face off and there are so many young girls who are singing. I might not remember names right, but I know I like certain music. My name is Ed. Everyone say hello Ed. I'm from a very rural background myself. My dad is a farmer and my mom is a cousin. So like it's not like what do you get when a true crime producer walks into a comedy club? I know it sounds like the start of a bad joke, but that really was my reality nine years ago. I just normally do straight stand up, but this is a bit different. On stage stood a comedian with a story that no one expected to hear. On 22 July 2015, a 23 year old man had killed his family. And then he came to my house. So what do you get when a true crime producer walks into a comedy club? A new podcast called Wisecrack, where stand up comedy and murder take center stage.

I advocate for safety and awareness of predators while wearing pink. When you were described to me as a forensic psychologist, I was like, snooze. We ended up talking for hours and I was like, this girl is my best friend. This is a podcast where I cut through the noise with sarcasm, satire and hard truths. I am not gonna fake it and force it, but would you force an orgasm? Because that's like a different layer. The car accident you didn't want to see but couldn't turn away from. In this episode I discuss personal safety and self defense tools, instincts and strategies to protect yourself and your loved ones in everyday life and high risk situations. Listen to Intentionally disturbing on the iHeartRadio app Apple Podcasts or wherever you get your podcasts. Now, some of these artists reached out to do. Besides her. Reached out to. To do records. And would y' all consider doing them? Or you're like, ah, I don't know. Well, there's some thoughts. You know, me and Cardi B. Possibly you and Cardi B. I love that. I love that. Are you thinking about it? Oh, have you done Cardi new album? You on her new album? No. Oh. Oh, she wants to do something. She gonna be on hers. Yeah. No, Cardi's my girl. We did a commercial together, bonded. But I haven't had a record out in, like, 15 years. R&B album for 20 years. And I've been working on it for the last six months, but I got it coming. Still on tour. Fabulous. So what about you, Shaka? I'm sorry, I'm sorry. I don't want to. I want to say Ms. Shaka. Can I say Ms. Shaka? Whatever makes you comfortable, Ms. Shaka. What about yourself? The beginning of the year? Yeah, I have. Sia and I have gotten together, did a little pop album, and I got. Oh, Snoop is on there. I got Snoop rapping on. But I got quite a few other surprises. But I know you do. This is gonna be interesting. I saw you perform with Dua Lipa as well, too. Yeah, Dua Lipa. We did. We jammed. Yeah. I came with Jam brother the other day. How do you. How do you pick and choose, all three of you ladies? How do you pick and choose? Like, when artists call you and say, hey, I'm almost paying tribute. Would love to have you where you're like. You lend your actual face and presence to an artist if they could sing. That's it. Come on now, singer. Do something special. Yeah, I mean, Cardi's not a singer singer. Right, but she's special. Yeah, it's a good entertainer. You know what I'm saying? Would you say you made more money now in the last 10 years than you did in your career? Absolutely. Absolutely. Right now? Well, because I'm independent and I'm more verbal about what I want. I know exactly what I want. I know how I want it to be done. I know what percentages I want. So. Yeah, absolutely. Absolutely. What about you guys? How much of the industry's changed and how much does it stay the same? It's changed a lot. I think women are getting more play these days. And like Stephanie said, you have to know what you're worth, and you have to know that who's ever doing your business with you, they are safe, which is hard to find. You know, my son is with me. Yes. Forever. No, no. Go ahead, finish. I just want to say that you have to know your worth, and you have to be willing to say no and not chase the money. Because all money ain't good money. That's right. Yeah. Because it's real. I mean, you can't go out and say, I'm going to do this, and you embarrass yourself or you talked about badly for taking that check. Right. You know, so I know all of these things are done well with me and my son. Like, he'll stop it in a minute, no matter how much it is. Right. So, you know, I'm blessed again. I'm blessed with business. What about you, Ms. Shaka? How's this? How's the industry changed on that again? No, you know, the big, you know, the big house, the big, you know, the big companies. I was very thrilled. I was thrilled when I found out that a lot of artists, especially hip hop artists, were, like, in their hotel room cutting records. I was like, yes, that's the way it should be. Absolutely. And Prince and I went through a really big fight with, you know, for some years, you know, about how crooked they were. And so finally, I'm in a good place where, you know, I own everything I'm of mine. Get to come through me first. If there's one message you want the audience to take away after seeing all of y' all perform together, what is it? Unity. And that we respect each other. Love, peace. We've been talking about this for years. You know, those are together. This is when this came. I thought, here's our chance, you know. Well, ladies, salute to Ms. Gladys Knight, too.

Jadakiss could barely get the words out because Khaled was there telling the story. Story? What you mean Fat Joe has met his match? Khaled is Fat Joe's son. No, I mean, as far as somebody who going to tell the stories? Who going. You. You ain't going to get a word in. Did you watch the full interview? Khaled's whole demeanor and energy comes from Rick Ross and Fat Joe. Listen, let me tell you something. Khaled ran down everything we needed to know during this interview, but it was also really inspiring, too. And they did talk a lot about, you know, callous beginning, being just the boy in the back seat with Fat Joe and all the things. But Fat Joe asked DJ Khaled about being in the middle of the, you know, the whole beef with Drake future and then Rick Ross hopping in and how he handled that. Let's take a listen. But did you try that with this nuclear bomb that went on with like. Because I know the six. God was always your brother. He supported. I love Drake Ross. Is your day one. I love futures, your brother. I love what that feel like when the whole world's fighting each other. And then what it feel like is that I didn't get in that energy. There's two energies I'm not going to get in. Hate. Ask me a question. How do you deal with hate? Please can you ask me, how do you deal with hate, brother? I don't. And then when you speak about all those great legends that you just talked about, from Drake, my brother, future Drake, Ross, those are my brothers. You can't question my friendship. A lot of this is a misunderstanding and a lot of not communication. When it comes down to DJ Khaled, I'm the one that's going to try to fix it at the end of the day is I love my brothers. So you couldn't squash this one. I would love to squash it. So it's still up. That's why I don't use the word could. Everything's possible with God. Yes. It's always been like that. He's always been very, very positive. I've never seen Khaled really get upset or mad at anything. And when it comes to giving back, he's one of those people that might not do it up front and might not do it loud and yelling like he does a lot of his videos. But Khaled is always there to support when people need help behind the scenes. So salute to DJ Khaled. I know he squashed, tries to squash a lot of beefs. It's like, that's true. But he said everything is possible with God. How come he didn't say that when it comes to losing weight? Because I remember when they asked him about losing weight. So listen, I remember when they asked him about losing weight and he said, I don't lose, I don't lose. How come you didn't say everything is possible with God, Dick? I don't know. You don't want to lose weight. To be honest with you, maybe I don't want to get skinny. What's the name? What's the name of his chef? Is it Chef Megan? I forget her name. I'm sorry, I forget her name. But he has this chef that he always. He posts about her and talks about her a lot. But she brought them out like food and drinks during this interview and they were talking about how good she cooks and how much food she always makes for them when people come over. So maybe that's why he. I'm just saying maybe they said the food is so good she had made Them like lobster rolls. And I'm sitting there watching Interview like, dang. I honestly feel like you don't want to lose the weight. I mean, because him being DJ Khaled with so many resources and so many, you know, I mean, like, everything is possible with God. I just want to know how come that wasn't the answer when somebody asked you that. But when it comes to losing weight, that's all. Because he don't want to lose it. Lord have mercy. Well, yes, and they did give him a shout out in the interview and talked a bit about the. The envy, the community service that he does that he doesn't say much about at all because he does so much of it. But DJ Khaled also talked about attending the Bad Bunny concert and segue to our next story. He talked about how amazing the production was and all the things when I was in Puerto Rico. Bad Bunny has this residency that he did in Puerto Rico. It's called I Don't Want to Leave Here. And the reason why he titled it that is because most people, you know, when you're in Puerto Rico and these other places, you go to different states, countries to make it big and do all these things, or once you make it big. He wanted to bring people to Puerto Rico, and he did just that. The residency grossed an estimated of $200 million in revenue by hundreds of thousands of people to Puerto Rico. But I heard when I was in Puerto Rico so much about how amazing it was and how big the production was. But Bad Bunny sat down with ID Magazine for a cover story, and they talked about all of that. But they also talked about the fact that he did not want to do shows in the US because he was worried about ICE being outside of his shows. So they asked, the journalist, asked him, so you said you wouldn't be giving any concerts in the United States. Was this out of concern about the mass deportation of Latinos in the United States? And he says, me, honestly, yes. There are many reasons why I didn't show up in the US and none of them were out of hate. I performed there many times. All of the shows have been successful. All of them have been magnificent. I've enjoyed connecting with Latinos who have been living in the US but specifically for the residency here in Puerto Rico, where we are an unincorporated territory, territory in the US People can come from the US can come here and see the show. But there was an issue like ICE outside of my effing shows, in my concerts. And it's something that we were talking about and very concerned about. I mean, that makes sense. Still in America, though, right? I mean, Puerto Rico, you still. You know what I'm saying? Yeah. But here, you just down the street. Does it work different there, though, because they're, because of how they're set up as like, they're in the US but they're not in. I have no idea. That's why he said it. Yeah. Not only that, what he does, too, is he creates the economy in Puerto Rico has boosted like crazy since he's been doing that residency. They said the amount of money that the actual Puerto Rican people that live there are making, he said, has increased it like, night or like day and night. Like, yeah, it's ridiculous, which is dope. But giving people jobs, that's amazing. Yes. And bringing tourism, like, a lot of tourism to the city. When I was there, when there were so many people that were literally there just for the residency that went from July 11th all the way up until September 14th, the residency did. Now, my last story. I want to give a shout out to myself. I made the Ebony Power 100 list. I'm listed in the media Mavens category. Dropping the clues. Bonds for Lauren LaRosa. Yes. They, they, they not. They emailed us and was like, hey, you were nominated. You know that that has happened a couple times since I've been here on the Breakfast Club. Don't play with me. I just posted it on my Instagram. But, yeah, I didn't even know that it happened. And somebody hit me, was like, congratulations on making a list. I was like, what list? And then they sent it to me. I was like, oh, wow, the Breakfast Club has been such a vehicle for me. I'm think I'm so grateful for all of you guys, for all of us as a family.

And janiyah there are my sister and my daughter. Grown daughter. Grown daughter being ungrateful and disrespectful and my sister just being grimy and shady. I let my daughter use a car and I had a breakfast dinner, breakfast brunch in, you know, shout out to the Virgos. My sister didn't come, so I'm asking, trying to text her, hey, what's up? You coming to my brunch? Do I need to come pick you up? You know, do I need you need a ride? Because I know she don't have a car. Come to find out at the brunch, my daughter sold my car to my sister for $500. Damn. What kind of garbage ass car you got? It still runs. It's like a good car. It's like a price of 200. Like I literally got a new vehicle and I'm trying to look out for my daughter and my grandson. Like, hey, you need a ride to work? You know, I know she's struggling. I brought her back from Indiana. Like I'm always helping him. Hold on, hold on. Let me take a step back. The car I'm sure is probably worth more than $500. So I guess the question I should ask is how long has your sister been on crack that she sold your car for 500? There you go. There you go. Okay. And why she didn't call me? Why she didn't call me and say, hey, hey, hey, your daughter's trying to sell your car for 500. Why you been calling me? You my sister. Oh, the daughter sold the car for 500? Yes.

Good morning. Who's this? Good morning. My name Is Anthony down in South Georgia? How y' all doing this morning? Peace. Anthony, what's happening? Nothing much. Nothing much. Who you want to get a big sea. Hard to. I want to give it to everybody on social media right now, man. About the Charlie Kirk situation. Yes, sir. Make it political. But at the end of the day, a man died in front of his kids and his wife. We should be giving him a little stuff, a little bit of grace. Everybody should think of him as a person. At the end of the day, I think they're taking everything out of context, making this about his views. At the end of the day, he was assassinated. For the hundreds of people, I think it's okay to care about what happened. Oh, it's okay just to shut the f up. Yeah. I think people. I think. I think people. I think folks forget that it's okay that you don't have to share your opinion about every single thing. And, you know, I. I believe in energy as well. And what I will say is simply this. You know what happens when there's somebody you love and support? That. That. And. And what if. And what if that person that you love and support was considered controversial or said. Said things that, you know, folks didn't agree with? Like, I'm never gonna be okay. I'm never gonna be okay with a person being killed just because they had a. A difference of opinion or a difference of belief. Because that could be anybody who. With a microphone nowadays. Exactly. Exactly. And that video be out there for his kids to see for the rest of their lives. You know what I mean? Nobody thinks about any of this stuff. Oh, people don't think. All people want to do is be a part of the algorithm. A lot of this. A lot of this just has to do with engagement, to be totally honest with you. Like, a lot of people just really care about being a part of the algorithm and getting as much engagement as possible. I see people literally online asking, you know, should I be sympathetic towards this? What the hell you got to ask the Internet that for? Yeah, you should. You should go from the heart. Whatever you got in your heart. That's where it comes from. Somebody died. You can have sympathies for him just the same as someone to die. Your own family. I told y' all yesterday, when I saw that situation, the first thing I thought about was fear. Like, literally, my guy. I was. I was afraid, okay? Because I'm a black man in America, I think about getting shot every day, and I'm a media personality whose opinionated it. And what if somebody don't like my opinion, and they feel like, you know, they want to, you know, take me out because of my opinion. Like, yep, no. Supposed to be America, voice of the free. You know what I mean? The land of the free. You should be able to say whatever you want. You can have your opinion. You can be judged. But when it comes to shooting somebody for their opinion, that's. That's. That's where it crosses line, man. So I want to tell everybody out here, take care of yourself and keep your head on the swivel. Oh, thank you for calling my brother. All right. We do that every Friday.

Date: September 12, 2025
Hosts: DJ Envy, Jess Hilarious, Charlamagne Tha God
Notable Guests: Stephanie Mills, Patti LaBelle, Chaka Khan, Lauren LaRosa (The Latest), Mimi Brown (news)
This lively Friday episode of The Breakfast Club dives into the state of HBCUs following nationwide lockdown threats, reflections on the legacies and challenges of Black women in the music industry with legendary guests, the culture of online vs. retail shopping amid rising theft, hip-hop beef commentary, propelling positivity, and of course, their signature blend of open phone lines, community humor, and unfiltered commentary.
[19:50 – 49:30, 1:36:25 – 2:06:56]
“Please, please hurry up and catch the individual who murdered Charlie Kirk. The longer they’re free, the more conspiracy theories we get, and all conspiracy theories do is cause more division and can create more violence.”
“A man died in front of his kids and his wife. We should be giving him a little bit of grace.”
Charlamagne [1:42:00]: “Black people don’t have anything to do with this, so folks need to misdirect that energy… And this is why you have to be careful with things you say and do. It’s Charlie Kirk today, but it could be someone you love tomorrow.”
Jess [1:53:06]: “It’s whack we gotta pay for the sins of shoplifters… And when it’s something you want to buy discreetly, like Plan B, you gotta wait for the clerk and now your business is out in the open!”
[49:30 - 1:22:05, 3:45:05 – 4:12:35]
[1:22:05 – 1:42:00, 2:41:40 - 3:02:20]
Envy [1:28:41]: “He’s being so honest… You can tell he’s going through pain, he misses his friends, he wants it back how it was.” Charlamagne adds humor: “Thug need to add Gunna to that list too, because we know you miss him.”
[2:08:30 – 2:41:40]
“I never did [think I’d last this long], because I was always told, you know, dark girls don’t… After a while, they were like, ‘People are not going to promote dark girls.’ So I was always working against that.” [2:09:55]
“Because I had an issue also with my being a black woman with a big nose. A friend of mine got her nose done. And I said, maybe I’ll get one gig… I did, and after I saw Stephanie, I had one!” [2:11:30]
“I’m aware of the stigma Black women go through… But nobody ever said anything to me. I always had a reputation of not taking no.” [2:15:00]
“At 68, I really don’t care what people think. I’m gonna stay and do what I want to do, I feel like I’ve earned that right.” [2:24:19]
“I’m not afraid when people say, ‘If you do this, you’re going to be blacklisted.’ I’m black already so you know what I’m saying?” [2:25:41]
“All money ain’t good money. You gotta know what you’re worth and be willing to say no.” [2:36:35]
“I own everything of mine, get to come through me first.” [2:38:00]
[1:36:25 – 1:42:00, throughout]
[Slander the Breakfast Club & Donkey of the Day, 4:12:35 – End]
“We do Slander the Breakfast Club every now and then, man, when you get to call up here and slander us!” [4:20:00]
[5:04:15 – 5:20:30]
Charlamagne on conspiracy around Charlie Kirk ([27:40]):
“Please hurry up and catch the individual who murdered Charlie Kirk. The longer they’re free, the more conspiracy theories we get… more division and more violence.”
Stephanie Mills on Essence Fest & speaking out ([2:24:19]):
“I could not sit and let them accuse people for being late. When it was them that was late and running late… I’m 68, I really don’t care what people think… I feel like I’ve earned that right.”
Patti LaBelle on plastic surgery pressures ([2:11:30]):
“I didn’t like my nose, and a manager told me to my face … He was just mean.”
Envy on HBCU lockdowns ([1:42:00]):
“They’re gonna shut down today as well… but sports activities and the student union will be open for kids to get food and see each other—classes resume Monday.”
Charlamagne on retail theft hassles ([1:53:06]):
“It’s whack that we gotta pay for the sins of shoplifters. And when it’s something you want to buy discreet, you have to wait and your whole business is public now.”
DJ Khaled on drama ([2:46:49]):
“There’s two energies I’m not going to get in: hate. When it comes to DJ Khaled, I’m the one that’s going to try to fix it at the end of the day. I love my brothers.”
Hosts and listeners keep it real—funny, honest, and always with an eye on community.
