As always, it's classic HBCU energy. Nonstop action. The band is rocking and the crowd lit. Chants echoing, drums beating, everybody showing that school pride. Moments like this, yeah, they call for an ice cold Coca Cola. Crisp and refreshing. That's a game changer right there. Mm, yeah, that taste always hit the right note. Just like the band at halftime. Passionate fans, school colors everywhere, and a nice ice cold Coca Cola. That's a winning combo. No matter the place, no matter the moment, everybody knows fan work is thirsty work. So grab a Coca Cola and keep that HBCU pride going. This is Jim.

Because I had the camera from down.
Charlamagne Tha God
Oh, I said something. Yeah, you did.
Jesse (Jessel Aria)
She was like, damn, I can see.
DJ Envy
Right up your nose.
Jesse (Jessel Aria)
Like, calm down.
DJ Envy
You did say that. You didn't know you said it out loud.
Jesse (Jessel Aria)
Yeah, he knew. He said a head clown.
DJ Envy
He definitely said that out loud. He realized he definitely said that out loud.
Charlamagne Tha God
That's crazy.
DJ Envy
You know, there's like this flu going around that really affects the. The throat. So a lot of people are.
I'm serious. There's a flu going around. They said during this time, it's like it's almost triple.
Charlamagne Tha God
Why you the only one got it? Why you the only one got it in your throat? Ain't none of us got it. Why you the only one got it?
DJ Envy
My whole family's down right now because of it.
Charlamagne Tha God
Right now. They all got how you got by going down. What happened?
What did you say, young man? What did you say?
DJ Envy
It's too early.
Charlamagne Tha God
Here's the thing. A lot of people are getting sick. I don't think that's the flu, though. I just think that's another COVID variant that they're not telling us is another variant. I've been hearing that too. Like, you be. You'd be talking to some people, and they'd be like, yeah, such and such got Covid. But then some people be like, yeah, such and such got the flu. I think it's all the same.
DJ Envy
Yeah, it's all the same at this point right now.
Jesse (Jessel Aria)
But it is something going on, going around with kids in schools and, like, daycares, like, younger kids. The hands, foot, mouth disease. Like, these babies are getting it. My mother does daycare, and it was, like, two kids that came through there, but they had got it from, like, being at the doctor. Like, it's called hands, foot, mouth disease. And it's really no cure for. I mean, it's.
Charlamagne Tha God
No.
DJ Envy
You just gotta let it go through.
Jesse (Jessel Aria)
You just gotta let it go through. But the kids look so helpless. They be in so much pain. There's, like, sores in their mouth and on their lips and stuff. And it just. It's bad, but it comes from germs, like, an abundance of germs. So just keep your kids clean, as clean as you can keep them.
DJ Envy
Yeah, my kids didn't have no sores or nothing, but their throats were hurting, and they couldn't swallow any food, so it just had to be liquid. So it was like a lot of chicken noodle soup. Not Campbell's, though, but just chicken noodle soup.
Charlamagne Tha God
Now all of a sudden, it ain't.
Jesse (Jessel Aria)
Can't none of y' all throw that.
Charlamagne Tha God
Can of Campbells out of your house. Now all of a sudden, they ain't can.
DJ Envy
It was actually Panera, sir. Panera. Panera. But anyway, we ordered it, but I ain't gonna lie. But, yeah. So the kids were down, Gia was down. So they're just getting over it now. They missed a couple days of school, so now they just getting back. Everybody's saying they got it from me, but.
Charlamagne Tha God
But that's what you gotta do. You gotta use your hand sanitizer. Like, you know, I landed late last night, and for two seconds I thought about, you know what? Let me just jump into bed. My wife was like, you better take your ass in the shower. Go take a shower. Go wash.
Jesse (Jessel Aria)
Dirty ass.
Charlamagne Tha God
Just came off the plane. Exactly. You just came off the plane. You better go take your ass in the shower. Go wash. No diddy, though. I wasn't on no. Like, yo, I gotta go wash. I've been around all these. I've been around all these peasants touching me. I've been around all these peasants. So I gotta wash. No, no, Diddy.
DJ Envy
Now. Have you guys seen the doc? Have you seen the doc?
Charlamagne Tha God
No, I haven't. I've never seen that part though.
DJ Envy
Oh my gosh, man. Y' all got a good doc. Doc is, is a four part doc. It's really, really good. Really entertaining. Some of the stuff that you, you see in the doc is like, where did they get that footage from? It's not just the footage. Before he goes and they break down so much in detail. It's very detailed.
Jesse (Jessel Aria)
Oh, I know Lauren gonna have all that for us.
DJ Envy
I mean. And they go back, they go back to Puff as a baby, as a kid, him growing up. They have the pictures and the video of him as a kid.
Jesse (Jessel Aria)
Oh, wow.
DJ Envy
They go to everything that has to do with Puff from the, the trampling of the basketball game when. When a bunch of people passed away were killed, the. To Biggie's passing, to Pac's passing, to his relationships, to.
Lamont Roach Jr
Oh wow.
DJ Envy
To his kids.
Guest Caller / Mr. Show Money
It's.
Charlamagne Tha God
It's really the context of all of that. Yeah. What picture are they trying to paint by showing all of that?
DJ Envy
Diddy did it. Diddy did all. Diddy did it all.
Charlamagne Tha God
What you mean? Just been.
DJ Envy
They connect Diddy to everything. The, the killing at the basketball game, they connect Diddy to.
Charlamagne Tha God
But we. That's documented though.
DJ Envy
Pac's death. They connect Diddy to. Big's death. They connect Diddy to like everything. They connect Diddy to. Now if you believe it or not, there's something else. But in that documentary there's somebody that breaks down everything and why they feel the way that they feel. They got to be a million one lawsuits going out.
Charlamagne Tha God
Jesus.
DJ Envy
There has to be a million one lawsuits at this point. But I'm sure Lauren LaRosa will break it down in the latest. And today we got Lamont Roach joining us.
Charlamagne Tha God
Oh yeah, he's fighting Isaac Pitbull Cruz this Saturday in San Antonio, Texas. They're fighting for the WBC interim super lightweight title. I guess you know the rematch with Tank is not happening. We know that. So he'll be here to talk about that. Plus the fight this weekend.
DJ Envy
That's right. Yeah. And we'll also discuss how Jessel Aria stunning on him, fronting on him last time he was.
Jesse (Jessel Aria)
Oh my God, shut up. I definitely didn't think he was going to win against Tank, but when he did, I did jump.
DJ Envy
His was a draw. Draw. Yeah.
Charlamagne Tha God
All right.
Jesse (Jessel Aria)
Well, I mean I didn't expect for him to have hands like he was and he was talking some big. Ish up there, up here, you know, so. But he backed it up.
Lauren LaRosa
It was cool.
Jesse (Jessel Aria)
Pause. But yeah. So I jumped in his DM and I was like, yo, congratulations on, you know, the win. I didn't even know it was a tie. He ain't even correct me.

DJ Envy
Right, well, let's get some front page news now. Salute to Chris Paul. He posted on his Instagram yesterday, I'm going home. They just sent me home. So the Clippers are parting ways with Chris Paul, and they said, this is Chris Paul's last season.

DJ Envy

Charlamagne Tha God
Yeah.
DJ Envy
So he just said that they're sending me home. So hopefully a team will pick him up and let him ride out his last year and retire the way he wants to retire.
Charlamagne Tha God
Damn.
DJ Envy
What's up, Mimi?
Mimi Brown
Good morning. MV Jess Alaman. How y' all doing this?
Charlamagne Tha God
Mimi Brown.
Mimi Brown
Good morning. All right, so we start this morning, continuing our coverage as backlash grows over those deadly US military strikes at sea. And now there are new questions about whether the Trump administration is trying to make Admiral Frank Bradley the scapegoat over all of this. Now, during a Cabinet meeting yesterday, President Trump and Defense Secretary Pete Hexseth, they tried to distance themselves from what happened on September 2nd. That's the strike that killed two survivors in the Caribbean, they're now saying that Admiral Bradley, he made the call to the suspected drug boat at the time to strike it down after that first missile reportedly left people still alive in the water. Now, Hegseth says that he supports Bradley and his judgment. Let's listen to that exchange.
DJ Envy
I watched that first strike lock. As you can imagine, at the Department of War, we got a lot of things to do. So I didn't stick around for the hour and two hours, whatever, where all the sensitive site exploitation digitally occurs. So I moved on to my next meeting. A couple of hours later, I learned that that commander had made, which he had the complete authority to do. And by the way, Admiral Bradley made the correct decision to ultimately sink the boat and eliminate the threat. And he was the right call. We have his back. So you didn't see any survivors? To be clear, after that first strike, I did not personally see survivors, but I stand because the thing was on fire. It was exploded and fire, smoke, you can't see anything. You got digital. This is called the fog of war. This is what you and the press understand. You sit in your air conditioned offices or up on Capitol Hill and you nitpick and you plant fake stories in the Washington Post about kill everybody phrases on anonymous sources not based in anything.
Charlamagne Tha God
Why are they selling out the admiral to cover Pete Hexaf? Mimi, what's going on here?
Mimi Brown
Yeah, well, that's the question everyone is asking. Senator Chris Murphy, he was on CNN last night and he's saying the same thing, that he's being sold out by his own chain of command. Let's listen to what he had to say.
Charlamagne Tha God
Both Republicans and Democrats are coming to the conclusion that this was an illegal, wildly immoral act. And he is shifting the blame. It's the opposite of the buck stops here. And boy, it's a chilling signal to everyone in the chain of command that the Secretary of Defense does not have your back. But he is basically telling everyone, all of his generals, all of the professional staff of the Department of Defense that I'm going to save myself if things get tough. And that's just devastating for American national security.
Mimi Brown
Yeah, so there he is, I think he's basically saying, I'm going to save myself. This is a serious war crime if true. Right. And if prosecuted, he could really see some, you know, depending on what happens with the Trump administration, you never know, but he could really get in trouble behind this. So the Pentagon, they said that they have carried out 21 of these boat strikes since late last summer, killing more than 80 people, all described by the administration as narco terrorists. And now a Colombian family, they filed a human rights complaint after their relative, a fisherman, he was killed by a separate attack on September 15. They argued that the US had no idea who was on that boat before they opened fire. And all of this, you guys, again, happening as that former Honduras president, Juan Orlando Hernandez, he was convicted of moving huge amounts of cocaine through the US he walked out of federal prison a free man yesterday. So just raising questions about who this administration is cracking down on and who they are letting walk away. And then one more note. Admiral Bradley, he is scheduled to face lawmakers in a closed door briefing on tomorrow.
Charlamagne Tha God
And it makes me wonder, like, what is this really all about? Like, you can, you know, you can't say it's a war on drugs, but then, you know, you. You bombing people in. In the ocean and don't even know what it is they're actually doing. But then you're pardoning actual drug dealers like it makes no sense to me.
Mimi Brown
Yeah, the rumors, the rumors are swirling. Could be oil in Venezuela, you never know. But the rumors are definitely swirling. Coming up at 7. A major airline is ditching one long time perk and replacing it with a controversial requirement. We'll explain what that could mean for you and your next trip.
Jesse (Jessel Aria)
Lord Jesus. I fly out today. Mimi.
DJ Envy
What?
Mimi Brown
Well, you're good today.
Jesse (Jessel Aria)
Okay.
Charlamagne Tha God
All right. Hey, salute to the airlines too. I know that, you know, the airlines was hectic a few months ago, you know, but the airline's been pretty smooth, back in track the last last couple of weeks. At least for me.
DJ Envy
That was fine for me too. All right, everybody else, get it off your chest. 800-585-1051. If you need the vent, hit us up now. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning.
This is your time to get it off your chest, whether you're mad or blessed. 800-585-1051. We want to hear from you on the Breakfast Club.

Guest Caller / Mr. Show Money
The first two episodes of this doc, man, I feel like it's a lot of victim things going on with this doc. I feel like, you know, a lot of people that that's in this doc, you know, the Burbles do everybody saying, you know, all of these things about Diddy way after the fact, after they made money, lived their lives and raised their families based on opportunities provided by. I feel like, you know, there might be some, Some truth in it, but a lot of people are getting a lot of ish off their chest that they, that they wanted to get off their chair. They did that they didn't do while Diddy was, you know, in their face. You know what I'm saying? And we know the problems that 50 has with Diddy. So, you know, I mean, it's entertaining, it's well put together. You know, I mean, but I, I don't, I don't know, man.
Charlamagne Tha God
Here's the thing. I tell you this, Mr. Show Money, it's. It's always going to be hard to give Diddy the benefit of the doubt because of all the things. Because of all the things we actually saw him do. Right. You know what I'm saying?
Guest Caller / Mr. Show Money
But I don't feel like. I don't feel like. Like to me, in my opinion, Diddy is not a good dude. I have experience in the entertainment business. He's not a good dude, but I feel like in this situation, he's being railroaded and ski googled a lot. That's what I'm saying.
Charlamagne Tha God
Railroading and scapegoated. In what way? Oh, scapegoat.
Guest Caller / Mr. Show Money
And what. I feel like a lot of what he did, people stood around and watched him do and didn't say anything.
Charlamagne Tha God
Yeah, but that don't mean he's being railroaded and scapegoated. That just mean the chickens finally came home to root.
DJ Envy
That means the truth.
Charlamagne Tha God
I don't mean. Yeah, that don't mean. That just means the truth finally coming out. I mean, he's not being railroaded and scapegoated. Yeah.
Guest Caller / Mr. Show Money
Can I, Can I share one more thing? I. I've been in the gym since September 19th. You know what I'm saying? LA Fitness in the gym.
Charlamagne Tha God

Guest Caller / Mr. Show Money
I ain't been to ABS in two and a half months.
Charlamagne Tha God
Damn.
Guest Caller / Mr. Show Money
Okay, but listen, but listen, listen. I. I was in the gym, right? So they're decorating the gym for the. For the holidays. But I noticed they only have decorations in the bathroom. And then they have bowls over the stall looking like as if it's a present inside the stall. So I was in the other day. I'm thinking. I thought about Envy immediately. I don't know why. I just thought about. I just. Hey, yo, listen, listen.
Jesse (Jessel Aria)
I thought about.
Guest Caller / Mr. Show Money
What happened.
Charlamagne Tha God
Nothing goes.
Guest Caller / Mr. Show Money
I thought to myself after. I thought about. Anyway, I said, the summer may own this LA Fitness.

You better stay out them bathrooms. Envy.
Charlamagne Tha God
He went to the bathroom. See the bow?
DJ Envy
I thought of Envy. Then I thought the shoulder. Man, on this gym, like, what? You better stop fantasizing.
Charlamagne Tha God
Envy tried to get a mistletoe put in the men's bathroom.
DJ Envy
That's a lie.
Charlamagne Tha God
That's a fact.
DJ Envy
That's a lie.
Charlamagne Tha God
You know what reminds me of you.
DJ Envy

Guest Caller / Mr. Show Money
Yes, Hi, this is Joe from Queens.
DJ Envy
Joe from Queens. I'm part of Queens.
Guest Caller / Mr. Show Money
Hello?
Charlamagne Tha God
Yeah.
DJ Envy
What part of Queens you from, Joe?
Guest Caller / Mr. Show Money
Oh, from St. Albans.
DJ Envy
Okay, St. Albans, Northside.
Charlamagne Tha God
What's up?
DJ Envy
Get it off your chest.
Guest Caller / Mr. Show Money
Yeah, Well, I have two things. First, let me just say I'm a 70 year old man. And the only time I really listen to your station is when y' all are on because y' all are very educational with. With all the things that y' all do. And I really like listening to your show.
Charlamagne Tha God
Thank you, my brother.
Guest Caller / Mr. Show Money
Again, I'm 70 years old, but also, I forgot to say good morning to all y'.
Lauren LaRosa
All.
Guest Caller / Mr. Show Money
Md Jess and. And Charlemagne. Excuse me for that. Secondly, I do have two things. One, I'm a caregiver. I'm a caregiver. I was a caregiver for my mother, so she reached the age of 101. Now I'm a caregiver for my brother, who's our army veteran. You know, he lost his. His toes. So I'm a caregiver for him and caregivers it is a hard job. It's tough job, but it's. But it's a rewarding job because you, you know, you're taking care of people you love, you know, and there's nothing better than doing that.
Charlamagne Tha God
Man, we thank you, and we thank you for your service. We thank your brother for his service. Man, you, you are, you are a special person, man.
Guest Caller / Mr. Show Money
Yeah, my mother, she was in. She was in the service, too. She was in the whack. Like I said, she died at the age of 101. Her and my father. My father was a 25 year veteran.
Yeah. Now the, the second thing is I'm kind of. Jeff, I'm kind of going at you a little bit. Nothing mean and nothing hard. But other day, that made me laugh. You said about John B. You thought he was Puerto Rican. What is Puerto Rican? That's like saying, I thought he was a Canadian. I thought he was Californian. What is, what is that? I think you were trying to say that Puerto Rico.
She said she thought he thought he was Puerto Rican.
Jesse (Jessel Aria)
Yes, When I was younger, I always thought he was Puerto Rican. And then we got an engineer pair and he.
Guest Caller / Mr. Show Money
No, but I think she meant to say, I thought he was Spanish.
DJ Envy
No, she made Puerto Rico. I've always known him to be white.
Guest Caller / Mr. Show Money
Okay, now, but my, but my what? My thing is. What. My thing is that a lot of people do. Spanish is just a language. There's nothing more than, like, English is nothing more than a language. All these people always say, I'm Spanish, I'm. I'm German. All these are languages, you know? Yeah. You have people that come from Germany, so they speak German. You have people come from France, so they speak French, you know, but, you know, the true Spanish people, and really, they're not even true Spanish people are the indigenous people here in the United States, north, south and Central. Because they were. The colonizers brought their language to them.
Charlamagne Tha God
Joe, Joe, you're not wrong, but they are Puerto Ricans.
DJ Envy
Puerto Ricans on the block, Joe.
Jesse (Jessel Aria)
They out there.
Guest Caller / Mr. Show Money
No, there's Puerto Ricans, but what are they? Either white or they're of color. This is what I'm trying to get across. They're either white.
Charlamagne Tha God
Listen, listen.
Guest Caller / Mr. Show Money
Even me, when I go to the Dominican Republic, until I open my mouth, everybody thinks I'm Dominican.
Charlamagne Tha God
Everybody.
Guest Caller / Mr. Show Money
I can't speak a lick of Spanish.
Jesse (Jessel Aria)
Okay, so Dominican, and you got Puerto Rican. If you just said that Spanish is a language, why would I say I think he's. I didn't mean to say I think he's Spanish.
Guest Caller / Mr. Show Money
I think if I said something wrong, then I apologize. But I really think that you were meaning to say you thought he was Spanish, not Puerto Rican, because what. What is really Puerto Rican isn't that. Isn't Puerto Rican or Puerto Rico.
Jesse (Jessel Aria)
For instance, my husband is Mexican and black, so he, his half of his family is from Mexico, and then the other half is from black. Well, not from black. They, you know, they from Baltimore. They American. They African American. You feel me?
DJ Envy
Yeah. So makes no sense to argue with him like you thought he was Puerto Rican, just like I really did. Puerto Rican. Like Fat Joe's Puerto Rican. Jennifer Lopez is Puerto Rican. You say they're Puerto Rican. You know, like Joe.
Lauren LaRosa
No, I did.
Charlamagne Tha God
Yeah. I don't understand what Joe was saying either, but salute to you, Joe.
DJ Envy
Yes.
Lauren LaRosa
And I'm sorry.
Charlamagne Tha God
If John.
Jesse (Jessel Aria)

DJ Envy
As always, it's classic HBCU energy. Nonstop action. The band is rocking and the crowd lit. Chants echoing, drums beating. Everybody showing that school pride. Moments like this yeah, they call for an ice cold Coca Cola. Crisp and refreshing. That's a game changer right there.
Guest Caller / Mr. Show Money
Mmm.
DJ Envy
Yeah, that taste always hit the right note. Just like the band at halftime. Passionate fans, school colors everywhere. And an ice cold Coca Cola. That's a winning combo. No matter the place, no matter the moment. Everybody knows fan work is thirsty work. So grab a Coca Cola and keep that HBCU pride going.
Lauren LaRosa

She never told me about this, and I am crashing out on this one. This is crazy. But as a brother and a fan of Jay Z and Beyonce, like, we want to take some pictures with y', all, too, and we want to say hi, and we want to be inspired by the. The inspirational no words that you guys are going to give us. Jay Z and Beyonce, please. And I know Brandi and Ryan are.

Going to hate this, but please pull up and say what's up to be.
Jesse (Jessel Aria)
I ain't gonna lie. I don't got no problem with that.
DJ Envy
Nah, they're not coming to see Brandi or Monica. They probably coming to support Kelly Rowland, man.
Lauren LaRosa
They are.
Jesse (Jessel Aria)
But I don't got no problem with what he said. I mean, he being a little brother. You feel me? It is his sister and Monica's tour. You know what I mean? And he just. Yeah, he crashing out like a little brother.
DJ Envy
I feel like I don't want to interrupt what she's doing before her show or after their show, so this, you know?
Lauren LaRosa
Nah.
Jesse (Jessel Aria)
But they are, though. Like, come on. They the two biggest stars in the world, and it's Brandi and Monica tour. Kelly is a feature on it. It's like, come on, yo.
Lauren LaRosa
Yeah, but y' all know how many stops they've been on? What if they've had their private moments with Brandi? They just didn't post about it now.
Jesse (Jessel Aria)
Now, if they didn't. Okay, but if they. I mean, if they did do that, all right, cool. But if they didn't, it's like. Yeah, I get what Ray J is saying, all right? I'm not mad at him for that.
Charlamagne Tha God
You know, my last name is Pinkett Smith Winfrey Knowles caught it. Okay, so I need some more context to cousin Willie Ray Noah Jr. S story here. All right? Like, where is Brandi when Beyonce and Jay Z are backstage? Okay, Is Brandi in the room when J and B walk by? Are they ignoring her on purpose? Like. Cause if Brandi's not around when I'm backstage, I'm not gonna go chase Brandi down.
DJ Envy
Well, you've been backstage before. There's different.
Charlamagne Tha God
That's what I'm saying.
DJ Envy
Everybody has their own green room in their own section, and they're there to support Kelly, So they probably in Kelly's green room.
Charlamagne Tha God
I'm not exactly. Now, I've seen pictures of Monica, but that's because they probably ran into Monica backstage. If I don't run into Brandy backstage, I'm not gonna go hunt Brandy down and take a picture.
Jesse (Jessel Aria)
You ain't gotta hunt Brandy down. It's her tour. Where the hell she gonna be at?
Charlamagne Tha God
Yo, those be the main people you don't see backstage when it's somebody. When it's dayto.
Lauren LaRosa
I don't know, because it'd be so many. They always post pictures backstage with a.
Jesse (Jessel Aria)
Lot of different Walking down the hallway, going in.
Charlamagne Tha God
These are at meet and greets and stuff. Like, who I saw at a meet and greet.
DJ Envy
Michelle wasn't at a meet and green.
Lauren LaRosa
She was backstage. Rihanna was backstage in the back hallway. There's been so many people.
DJ Envy
Like, you see what happened when Rihanna was backstage. It was all that. All the people, people bumping into them. She had to push people away.
Lauren LaRosa
And, yes, I won't deal with that.
Charlamagne Tha God
Well, hey, man, I'm just trying to earn my Roc Nation check. You know, I'm running defense.
Lauren LaRosa
You working hard today.
DJ Envy
Did you get it today? Did you get it?
Charlamagne Tha God
No, not yet. Not yet.
DJ Envy
Put it in voice.
Lauren LaRosa
Well, speaking of Brandi and Beyonce. So there were some comments left on a photo of Beyonce, and it was from Brandy's Instagram account. It says, that's my outfit you down here in. I dare you to come down here again and take a picture with me. It will go viral. I reached out to see if these comments were real. They were real. And I was told that Brandy's Instagram account was hacked. And then they also posted that to Brandy's Instagram account. They, her team posted. The Brandi Instagram account was previously compromised. As of early morning Tuesday, December 2nd, at this time, all access has now been fully restored. Brandi looks forward to seeing everyone this weekend at the Boys the Boy is Mine tour.
Charlamagne Tha God
Man, that's too long. They should have just said it was Ray J.
Jesse (Jessel Aria)
Let me find out. Ray J.
DJ Envy
Everybody thought it was Ray.
Charlamagne Tha God
That was too long a statement. Ray J got my phone. That's it.
Lauren LaRosa
Yeah, because people instantly was in the comments. Like how Brandy let Ray J get his phone.
Jesse (Jessel Aria)
Yeah, ain't no way.
Lauren LaRosa
Yeah, so damn.
Jesse (Jessel Aria)
I don't know.
Lauren LaRosa
Maybe we'll get another photo at the Boys Mind tour. Who knows? I need y' all to do something for me for the next hour, though. Or maybe the third hour. We'll see where it fits. So I want y' all to go to Apple Music and do your 2025 replay of all of your top music. Because you guys saw that Drake is the most popular artist this year on Apple Music's massive platform. He's my number one artist on my replay, and then Kendrick Lamar at the same time. His. This song, Not Like Us, is also a big Apple music replay of 2025. So I want y' all to go to your Apple music replay. Bring up your list.
Charlamagne Tha God
Just Google.
Lamont Roach Jr
If you just.
Jesse (Jessel Aria)
If you just hit the music one, it'll pop up for you right there.
Lauren LaRosa
Or you can Google Apple music replay and click it. It'll take you right there.
We're gonna get into y' all bottom all that. Because when I saw this, I thought this was interesting. Like, okay, you got both people some sexy songs for you. Was going crazy on some people's IC posting on Instagram. And then also Kendrick Lamar not like us. So we were diving into both of them at the same time. So the dis might have worked for both of them.
Charlamagne Tha God
I just handed Lauren my phone.
Lauren LaRosa
You did.
Charlamagne Tha God
Pull me up. Okay.
Lauren LaRosa
Pull me up.
Jesse (Jessel Aria)
And don't post on his Instagram.
DJ Envy
I won't do it.
Lauren LaRosa
I'm gonna go to Jess Instagram. That's my outfit that she. Right. And she wore.
DJ Envy
Now when we come back. Yeah, I gotta put mine up.
Charlamagne Tha God
See, my.
DJ Envy
I go through my kids, though. So you might see Dora, you might see Shark. You know.
Lauren LaRosa
You know what's crazy? That's what says jump in. So to jump in your music. When I thought about this this morning, I thought you and Jess will probably have, like, a lot of, like, kids songs on your.
DJ Envy
Because my kids use mine more than me. I just. I just throw on the music on Sundays in the morning. But when my kids use mine most of the time.
Jesse (Jessel Aria)
No, Marley used her forever phone. I don't let her use my phone.
DJ Envy
Come on. All right, when we come back, we got front page news. And then next hour, you'll be breaking down everything with the Diddy Doc, correct?
Lauren LaRosa
Yes, I will. We'll be getting to some diddy things.
Charlamagne Tha God
I gotta click. Play your highlight reel.
Lamont Roach Jr
This is.
DJ Envy
Yeah, and we also will open up the phone lines, too. So if you've seen the Diddy Doc, you got some comments, you got some questions, you got some things that you wanna get off your chest about that doc. We're gonna open up the phone lines in the next hour, all right? So don't move us to Breakfast Club. Good morning. Morning, everybody.
Jesse (Jessel Aria)
It's DJ Envy.
DJ Envy
Just hilarious Charlamagne, the guy. We are the Breakfast Club. Let's get back in some front page news. What'?
Mimi Brown
Good morning, MV Jess Charlemagne. How y' all doing?
DJ Envy
Hey, girl.
Mimi Brown
Good morning. Okay, so we start this hour in Minnesota, where federal immigration agents, they are expected to arrive in the Twin Cities in the next few days targeting undocumented Somali immigrants. Now, a source familiar with the plan says ICE has been directed by the Trump administration to surge agents into Minneapolis St. Paul to arrest people with existing deportation orders. Now, Minnesota is home to the largest Somali community in the US Homeland Security. They will not confirm the timing, but local leaders say hundreds of people could be swept up and they're warning that incidental arrests are possible, meaning others who happen to be just present could also be detained. All of this happening as President Trump intensifies his rhetoric about Somalians. Let's listen.
DJ Envy
Somalians ripped off that state for billions of dollars, and they contribute nothing. The Welfare is like 88%. They contribute nothing. I don't want them in our country.
Charlamagne Tha God
I'll be honest with you, okay?
Guest Caller / Mr. Show Money
Somebody will say, oh, that's not politically correct.
Charlamagne Tha God
I don't care.
Guest Caller / Mr. Show Money
I don't want them in our country.
DJ Envy
Their country is no good for a reason.
Charlamagne Tha God
Their country stinks and we don't want.
DJ Envy
Them in our country. I could say that about other countries, too.
Charlamagne Tha God
You know, all of this is all because of Representative Elon Omar. I feel like he doesn't like her, and so he's against all Somalians because of her. Damn.
Mimi Brown
Yeah, that was. That was. That was a lot. Trump and other top Republicans, they continue to cite a major case fraud in the state. That's where prosecutors say dozens of people stole hundreds of millions from pandemic food programs. Now, Somali residents say that scandal involved a small group of people, but it's now being used to paint the entire community and justify an immigration crackdown. Local officials there, including the mayor of Minneapolis and St. Paul, they say that they are standing with Somali families and warn that these raids risk profiling American citizens who simply look Somali. Let's listen to the mayor.
Charlamagne Tha God
Our police officers are not ICE agents. They will not cooperate with ICE agents. Our police officers have an obligation, first of all, not to. To enforce federal immigration law. That is not their job. I want our police officers keeping people safe. I want our police officers responding to violent crime. You know what I don't want them doing? I don't want our police officers spending a single second hunting the father down that just dropped his kids off at daycare, who's about to go and work a 12 hour shift, who happens to be from Mogadishu or who happens to be from Ecuador.
Mimi Brown
So Governor Tim Walls, he is calling the planned ICE sweep a political stunt and not a real solution. So we'll continue to watch that. That is something that they are expecting in the next few days. And we're also learning more this morning about the victims in that mass shooting in Stockton, California that killed four people, including three children. Yeah. Family members have identified eight year old Maya Lupian as one of the victims. She was a third grader, a karate student, and just two weeks away from her ninth birthday. A nine year old, a 14 year old and a 21 year old were also killed and 11 others were injured. A 14 year old, Amari Peterson. He was described by his father as a gentle soul who played football, basketball and had just started thinking about college. This morning, Amari's father is sharing what those final moments look like. Let's listen.
Charlamagne Tha God
I just heard gunshots and then the.
Jesse (Jessel Aria)
Shooter came in and, and he came in.
DJ Envy
I turned my back and I looked at him and then I just started.
Jesse (Jessel Aria)
Seeing him shoot, shoot, shoot, shoot. All I could see is my son.
Charlamagne Tha God
Crawling on the ground and me trying.
Jesse (Jessel Aria)
To, me trying to resuscitate him. He had one bullet hole right above his heart.
Charlamagne Tha God
Everybody running off and then my son is just sitting there, just crawling, trying to, trying to get up, trying to get up.
DJ Envy
So I got my baby, I had.
Charlamagne Tha God
To hop back over the counter and I'm trying to, I'm trying to see what's going on with him. I'm trying to get him CPR and the bullet and he just got blood coming out his face and, and it's just something that a father should never have to go through.
DJ Envy
Damn.
Charlamagne Tha God
I wish we could confirm hell was real and send them dudes who did that or those people, women who did that directly through that.
Jesse (Jessel Aria)
Yeah.
Lauren LaRosa
That's disgusting.
Jesse (Jessel Aria)
Yeah.
Mimi Brown
He was describing a scene where his daughter, she was also grazed with a bullet. So he had two children actually hit and he ended up losing his 14 year old son of the FBI. Yeah, it was very, very, very heartbreaking. The FBI is now assisting local investigators and the reward for information has now doubled to $50,000. So far no arrests have been made. Authorities say more than 100 people were at that gathering for a 2 year old's birthday party when that gunfire erupted. And they believe that this was a targeted attack. Now local law enforcement there, they say multiple shooters may have been involved. And Stockton mayor, or excuse me, Stockton Vice Mayor Jason Lee, he called the attackers cowards and he's urging the shooters or the shooters to come forward. And in the middle of all this heartbreak, perhaps just some good news. Afrobeat star Burner Boy, he says that he will cover the funeral expenses for all four victims. He said that he felt emotionally connected to the tragedy after hearing our report about it here on the Breakfast Club on Monday, so.
Charlamagne Tha God
Wow. That's what he said?
Mimi Brown
Yeah, yeah, that's what he said.
Charlamagne Tha God
Oh, I know that. Why ain't none of our producers tell us that? Well, thank you, Mimi, for letting us know that I know that.
Jesse (Jessel Aria)
Wow.
Mimi Brown
Yeah, absolutely.
Lauren LaRosa
He. It's everywhere.
Mimi Brown
If you. If you Google it, it's like in every publication. I saw it in tmz, the Daily Mail. It's everywhere we're quoted. Yeah. The Breakfast Club is definitely, I thought.
Charlamagne Tha God
Paying attention to Breakfast Club.
Mimi Brown
Yeah. So that's really good news. Yeah.
Jesse (Jessel Aria)
Those stories said that's good. What burn the boy is doing.
Oh, my God.
Lamont Roach Jr
Yeah.
Charlamagne Tha God
All right.
Mimi Brown
And switching gears a little bit this morning, Southwest is rolling out two big, new, pretty controversial changes for travelers that they need to know about. One is assigned seating, and the. The other is a major update to its policy for plus size passengers. Both of these kick in on January 22nd. So Southwest is ending that open seating, pick any row you want system and moving to assigned seating. And at the same time, it's tightening its rules around extra seats. A change or extra seats. Yep. So that's a change that's really going to impact plus size traveler. So starting next month, anyone who doesn't fit comfortably between the armrests will have to buy a second when they book their ticket. Yes. So right now, Southwest is the only major airline that lets you ask for that extra seat for free at the airport or buy it ahead of time and get a refund later. But now, under these new rules, that free option is gone, and even the refund is no longer guaranteed. So Southwest says, yep, you might get your money back, but only if the flight isn't full. Both seats were bought, have to be bought at the same time, and you have to request your refund within 90 days to still get that refund. A lot of people are already pushing back, saying the airline is putting the burden on passengers instead of facing the real issue. They say the seats are already too small.
Charlamagne Tha God
Right.
Jesse (Jessel Aria)
And a lot of fat people, they. They fly Southwest because, you know, the accommodation. So why would they change that?
Charlamagne Tha God
Why don't they just make them fly cargo? And furthermore. What. I don't have a problem at all with this. Okay. If you are too big for one seat, Then you just gotta buy two seats. Don't act like, don't act like the plane is doing something to you. You know how big you are.
Jesse (Jessel Aria)
But what if you don't got the bread to buy another seat? But you fat?
Charlamagne Tha God
Well, you shouldn't have been eating so much bread.
All right, okay. By the way, tall people gotta go through this too. Tall people gotta go buy extra comfort. What's the extra.
So, so it ain't just fat people that got to deal with this. Like, if you, if you're a tall person, you gotta, if you buy extra legroom because you know you need it.
DJ Envy
If you're a tall fat person, what do you do?
Charlamagne Tha God
Damn this. Trying to put people under the plane.
Jesse (Jessel Aria)
You're in a sprinter.
Charlamagne Tha God
That's what you do. If you. Damn it, baby, I don't, I don't, I don't think that this is any wrongdoing of the plane is what I'm simply saying.
DJ Envy
No, I don't think so either. You know, the problem is if you are big and you squish and you squish yourself in that seat and your fat goes over to the other seat, what happens during that point?
Charlamagne Tha God
And by the way, no, and see, that's, that's my problem with situations like this. Nobody thinks about the other people who are inconvenienced. You, you, you, you a big person and you squeezing into one seat. Now I gotta sit next to you uncomfortably. That's right. You understand what I'm saying?
DJ Envy
Your arms on the armrest and your fat goes over the armrest.
Jesse (Jessel Aria)
But it depends because fat is very soft. So you got extra cushion. Because you know them Southwest seats, they don't really be comfortable. So I would actually like to sit next to a fat person whose fat is spilling over into my seat because that's extra cushion.
Charlamagne Tha God
And is it fair, is it fair for you to be a plus size person and get a free seat just cause you plus size?
DJ Envy
No.
Mimi Brown
Well, that's the argument, right? Like, yeah, do they get a free seat? And so what they're saying too is if you show up to the airport and the flight is booked and you need that extra seat cause you were a bigger person then you, you can't fly. They're gonna like, damn, you know what I mean?
Charlamagne Tha God
What if I'm trying to get somewhere, I gotta get back home for something. And the standby seat, that could have been for me, they gotta give your other half. Half.
DJ Envy
Yeah, but you reward for being bigger because you give an extra seat for being bigger. It's like you rewarded.
Charlamagne Tha God
Yeah, I'm sorry. Salute to all my plus size people out there. But I don't feel your pain on this one. No.
Jesse (Jessel Aria)
Whoever gotta drive up the mountain to save their marriage, now, y', all making.
Mimi Brown
People drive push to cut costs and get the company back on track financially. So when you think about it all boils down to money. They need that extra. Need you to pay that extra seat so they can make some more money.
Charlamagne Tha God
So Southwest is making a push to cut costs. It's the new year. You should make a push to cut weight. Okay? That should be your New Year's resolution. Man.
Jesse (Jessel Aria)
Go big or go home.
Lauren LaRosa
Man, that's hilarious.
Guest Caller / Mr. Show Money
All right, y'.
Charlamagne Tha God

Nice.
DJ Envy
How you feeling, brother?
Lamont Roach Jr
I'm feeling good, man. I'm feeling good. I'm in a real good place.
DJ Envy
We all wanted to see that. That Tank rematch, man.
Charlamagne Tha God
Yeah.
Lamont Roach Jr
Who you telling?
DJ Envy
Why didn't it happen? Was there a particular reason or. It just. There was more money for him with.
Lamont Roach Jr
To me, I just thought he, you know, ain't want to take the fight after he realized, like, what he was getting himself into.
Charlamagne Tha God
Well, the first fight was closer than the judges made it seem. So he was like, you know what? It don't need me to get back in that ring.
Lamont Roach Jr
That's a fact. Especially when he had, like, you know, somewhat to comparable money. I mean, like, you Know I'm saying just a little bit more money to fight somebody that's not damaging to his legacy or nothing like that. So. But it is what it is. You know how, you know how many times I talk about this? You know how many times everybody asks me about this? Like I just. It's over with. Like it been over for me but everybody's still stuck on it because everybody don't get the answers. But you know, it's like my career never gonna be based on just one fight. You know, just that one fight.
DJ Envy
It's cool.
Lamont Roach Jr
Like it's over. I'm on the bigger and better.
DJ Envy
Well with the REM clause I, I always thought with a rematch clause if there is a draw, nine times out of ten it has to be retaken. But I guess that's not it at all.
Lamont Roach Jr
It's not necessarily has to like so for instance me and him and in our contract and his rematch, the rematch clause is on him to activate on that. He activated it and that's the only problem. So you know like that's, that's where we have the issue. Like he, he initiated the rematch clause so we are contracted to fight again and that's when all the problems happen.
Charlamagne Tha God
So what did you learn about how elite level fights actually get made or don't get made from that situation?
Lamont Roach Jr
Man, I've been new. I mean as soon as you get into the sport, like if you a guy that's into the business and want to know like you know, saying what's going on? You know my team, they very transparent with me and what's going on behind the scenes and all that. So you know, I've been new. It's just like when that happens that's something that not supposed to happen. So you know that's. You just deal with it accordingly.
Lauren LaRosa
Did your strategy on change or choosing your fights after that fight change at all because of like what the conversation was around you and how for a lot of people it shifted. Like a lot of people got to see you and really know like okay, we can't play with him.
Lamont Roach Jr
That's more so if they willing to take on the fights from the. So that's why a lot of people.
I'm actually surprised that Pitbull took this fight.
Lauren LaRosa
Are you surprised?
Lamont Roach Jr
Nah. Pitbull is like he one of them guys I'm not really caught up into want to say wins and losses and trying to like protect his record. He want to be the next Mexican boxing superstar. So he want to do what he want. Like the things that he think he need to do to become that.
Lauren LaRosa
Gotcha.
Jesse (Jessel Aria)
Yeah. Well, you ain't nervous for the fight?
Lauren LaRosa
I was gonna make sure.
Jesse (Jessel Aria)
You nervous a little bit.
Lamont Roach Jr
Nah, I mean go crazy.
Charlamagne Tha God
They don't stop. Cruise is constant pressure for sure.
Lamont Roach Jr
But you know, I've been there before. I done fought the pit bull style ever since I've been a kid, so it ain't nothing that I can't handle, you know, and I got 10 ways to win. He got one, so it's cool. We gonna exploit that. Real, real, real fashionable and real exciting. Like on December 6, you talked about.
Charlamagne Tha God
Wanting to prove you're one of the best in the division. So how does beating Cruz contribute to that?
Lamont Roach Jr
Because this is my third division in my third consecutive fight. My last fight was I just moved up to 35. That's probably why. That's probably why Jess was saying I was.
DJ Envy
You know what I'm saying?
Lamont Roach Jr
I was. She probably thought I was too small. I don't know. You know what I' but now I'm moving up again to 140 and I just want to be known as one of the best, like pound for pound. So Pitbull Cruz has an interim World Championship at 140. Once I get that title, it's just like the playing field is crazy. And then I can fight the guys who they consider the best at 135, 140, whatever the case may be.
DJ Envy
I was going to ask, so what's your goal? I know you think ahead of time, so what do you want to do? Where do you see the next couple of years? Where do you want to be?
Lamont Roach Jr
I want to be a multi division world champion.
Hopefully after I beat Pitbull, we go straight into the WBC.
Full world championship fight. If not, I'm gonna go back to 35 and challenge a title holder who's willing to fight me for a championship.
DJ Envy
Boxing's still fun because it feels like now people pick their fights. It doesn't feel like, like it's always.
Charlamagne Tha God
Been like that though, but it seems.
DJ Envy
Like worse in the last couple of years.
Lamont Roach Jr
I mean, boxing's been getting back to where it's supposed to be, I think. So it's been a lot of good fights happening and more. It's been even more good fights happening. Actually. They've been getting made, so I think it's on the way. It's just a little. It's just like little bumps. Like it's. It's like it should be obvious that two people, sometimes two people are the best at one Division and they don't fight each other, but that been happening for a long time, so. But it's getting better. I ain't gonna lie. It's getting better.
Charlamagne Tha God
What makes you confident you can make Cruz uncomfortable for the first time? They always say he makes people uncomfortable. How you gonna make him uncomfortable?
Lamont Roach Jr
He ain't never felt this thunder, man. He ain't never felt this thunder. But I'm just gonna attack. I'm just gonna attack from all angles. Just be very versatile. And then some things that he probably not going to expect gonna hit him. Like, really where it hurt. Like, I think he think he gonna be the bully in there. And that's, that's not gonna happen. Like I'm gonna be in control whether I'm going forward, whether I'm going backwards, whatever the case may be. But I know that he gonna be right there in front of me to get hit.
Charlamagne Tha God
Do you see this fight being one with like ring iq or you gotta go in there and bang him?
Lamont Roach Jr
Ring IQ for sure. That, that's off top though. That's automatic. Now if I bang with him, it's going to be strategic and then I might. You know what I'm saying? Like, you never know. He a tough cookie. So, you know, he just, if anything, he just going to get beat up for 12 round. Damn, not facts.
Charlamagne Tha God
So when you get in the ring with somebody like him, how do you, how do you control the pace instead.
Lamont Roach Jr
Of fighting his fight movement, you know, punch selection, a little clinch every once in a while, you know, just make him frustrated. Make like people get frustrated when you can't hit someone. I think my defense is well enough to, you know, make him uncomfortable. You know, I come back with shots and he be like, all right, maybe I don't want to throw that no more. So just little stuff.
Jesse (Jessel Aria)
Was it easy? Is it easier going up in weight versus coming down? Like, how far? How far? How hard is that of a task? Play with your weight like this.
Lamont Roach Jr
Nine times out of ten, your average boxer don't fight at the weight he walk around that. So it's not like I'm gaining weight. I still got to lose weight, which is not as much. So it's less stressful. You know, it's. I get to retain more muscle mass, stuff like that. It's just, you know, how, how far you willing to push yourself to good because them, they are big.
Charlamagne Tha God
I ain't gonna lie.
Lamont Roach Jr
Some of them big people just happen to be short. So.
Jesse (Jessel Aria)
So is that. Is it ain't it's in your diet it's in your exercise, like your workouts.
DJ Envy
Like, yeah, for sure.
Lamont Roach Jr
It's. It's definitely in the. So, like, all right, when I was making 130, it was definitely like when the fight got announced, I started losing weight immediately. When I fought that my last fight at 135, the weight was so easy to make because I had 5 less pounds to lose. So I was still kind of doing the same thing. But, you know, I had more room to play with and definitely wasn't on the last day, like, all right, do.
DJ Envy
I gotta work out or do I.
Lamont Roach Jr
Just go to sleep? You know, so. So, you know, it's just, it's comfortability and I think I'm strong and I'm definitely think I'm strong enough. I'm damn sure good enough of a boxer to fight at 140. So that's what's really gonna carry me.
Charlamagne Tha God
What do you think of the Jake Paul Anthony Joshua fight, just from a body boxing perspective?
Lamont Roach Jr
I think Jake Paul is crazy. He gonna get his ass murdered.
Mimi Brown
Don't you?
Charlamagne Tha God
Like a white boy that's not afraid to die. It's like some kind of. Right.
Lauren LaRosa
Now.
Charlamagne Tha God
He crazy.
Lamont Roach Jr
He is crazy. But I get it though. If you're gonna go. If you're gonna go from a superstar in boxing to the fight getting canceled and you're gonna to fight a real fighter, why don't you? I get weight.
DJ Envy
He going big.
Lamont Roach Jr
He going the biggest of the big. He won Olympic gold medalist at heavyweight. You going two time world champion and unified world champion at heavyweight. And he a superstar in the UK.
DJ Envy

Because Jake Paul has so many fans that aren't boxing fans or just Jake Paul fans, Right? Him losing.

Charlamagne Tha God
Well, I love this record, man. Belly Gang Christian featuring YK niece piece.
DJ Envy
Friendu let's get to the ladies. Come on.
Jesse (Jessel Aria)
Lauren becoming a straight face.
DJ Envy
She gets it from somebody that knows.
Charlamagne Tha God
Somebody gets the details.
Lauren LaRosa
I'm a home girl that knows a little bit about everything.
Charlamagne Tha God
She be having the latest on.
The.
DJ Envy
Latest with Lauren LaRosa.
Charlamagne Tha God
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.
Lauren LaRosa
All right, all right. So this is. Is the last of the diddy doc. So in the last two episodes, they reflect on a lot of like things. And. And there's some of that new video that. That was exclusively showed in this documentary. So A part of this is Diddy having a conversation about reaching out when Dawn Rich, Dawn Rashad filed her lawsuit. Remember that whole debacle? So they use the Breakfast Club. They begin having a conversation about Diddy reaching out to people that were indicted to or subpoenaed to potentially testify. Let's take a listen.
He had been reaching out to witnesses who had been subpoenaed. They're able to track it, according to the prosecutors, allegedly on a timeline where there were some people that were subpoenaed that Diddy hadn't spoken to in years. But after they were subpoenaed, he directly reached out to them. He was actually telling people, like, I'm not supposed to be talking to you. Don't text me. So he knew what he was doing was not right. I got some recordings that I could let you hear as well, baby girl.
Guest Caller / Mr. Show Money
For real, for real. No pressure. You know, I just felt like me and you was close enough like that. I ain't asking. I ain't never asked nobody to make a statement. You know what I'm saying? I felt comfortable and I feel comfortable asking you because I know real deal, if it's a funeral that you'd be jumping in my casket. Because I love you, because you really love me and you know how I feel about you. But it's all good. Sometimes you got to put yourself in your family first, and I respect that.
Charlamagne Tha God
Who is that talking? So that was you did it?
Lauren LaRosa
Yeah, so.
Charlamagne Tha God
And then the girl. Who's the girl?
Lauren LaRosa
Well, the second girl he's talking about, that was Kalina Harper. That was from Dirty Money. So remember when Dawn Richard had dropped her lawsuit and made all those allegations? Kalina was the person that people wanted to hear from because she would have been there and would have seen a lot of things, right? And then she came out with that statement and said, I. I didn't see any of that. Basically, dawn is lying, right? And people believed that she may have been like, you know, encouraged to do that by. Course to do that by Diddy. And those were voice messages that Diddy sent her once she had took some time respond, responding when Diddy had reached out to ask her to release the statement. Now let's go to dawn drops lawsuit, where you hear Diddy. This is his own video recording calling her to ask about that statement.
Jesse (Jessel Aria)
When Don drops her lawsuit, I get this call at 11:00 and he's panicking.
DJ Envy
Dawn is dropping something, saying, all types.
Lamont Roach Jr
Of crazy cycles.
Guest Caller / Mr. Show Money
But your name all in God.
DJ Envy
This brokenness and God acting like Mother.
Charlamagne Tha God
You know when zombies get bit, I'm gonna send you right this second.
Guest Caller / Mr. Show Money
What you talking about?
DJ Envy
I'm gonna definitely need you to go on the record if I. I'm asking.
Charlamagne Tha God
For a big favor. I never had a problem with this girl.
Lauren LaRosa
I read the 55 page lawsuit that dawn had just filed and my heart literally dropped on the floor.
Guest Caller / Mr. Show Money
Whatever. Statement, interview.
DJ Envy
This interview granted.
Lauren LaRosa
I'm dealing with my own situation.
Jesse (Jessel Aria)
I am caught up in a contentious.
Lauren LaRosa
Child custody battle and now this. The only person I could call in the beginning was Puff.
Jesse (Jessel Aria)
Just trying to get help.
Lauren LaRosa
I need you to help me get more powerful lawyers.
Jesse (Jessel Aria)
I was like, I need 5k.
Lauren LaRosa
I can pay you back.
Jesse (Jessel Aria)
And at the time he was like, I can't help cause I'm doing something else.
Charlamagne Tha God
Why is this nigga recording himself doing all this?
Lauren LaRosa
That's what 50 said in a GMA interview. Remember he said, I can't believe he recorded some of this.
Charlamagne Tha God
Like the level of arrogance, the ego that one must have to be recorded.
DJ Envy
Or the truth trust that he had in the videographer that he doesn't know.
Charlamagne Tha God
Trust. That's. That's you thinking you still bigger than the program.
Jesse (Jessel Aria)
Look, wasn't he trying to come out with his own movie or documentary or something like that? So that's probably why he was recording.
Lauren LaRosa
But did he? But did he. I don't know if you. I mean, y' all have been around him. Even in a professional setting. He records everything. Like that's just what he does all the time in a professional. He's come here to the Breakfast Club and he records behind the scenes.
Charlamagne Tha God
And this is supposed to be recorded, not by doing an interview. You trying to beat it.
DJ Envy
Yeah, look a little off this.
Lauren LaRosa
This man didn't think that this. I don't think he thought any of this was going to happen. He didn't think he was gonna end up.
Jesse (Jessel Aria)
And when he came up here, he wasn't recording.
Charlamagne Tha God
He.
Jesse (Jessel Aria)
When he came up to the Breakfast Club, he wasn't recording.
DJ Envy
Now he usually records when it comes.
Lauren LaRosa
Whenever I've been around him.
Charlamagne Tha God
Reality.
DJ Envy
Oh, yeah, yeah. Before. But let me ask you a question. So she asked Diddy for $5,000.
Lauren LaRosa
Yeah.
DJ Envy
And Diddy told her no.
Lauren LaRosa
Yes. So she was going back and forth with her husband about some custody situation and she needed some money for an attorney. And did. He told her no, but then turned around and called her and asked her to do this. And she did it. She released the statement. She said that she didn't hear nor see anything. And you know, she rolled with him. This whole time, even in this documentary, she still says and talks about how much she loves him, but she said that was messed up because he wasn't there when she needed him. Now there's another part that you are going to be like, why would he record this?
Charlamagne Tha God
This?
Lauren LaRosa
So the day that dawn drops this lawsuit, Diddy is coming up with strategy with his son Justin about how to show that dawn actually is like one of his homegirls for real. Let's take a listen.
Guest Caller / Mr. Show Money
Hey, yo.
Charlamagne Tha God
You think we can hire an editor to go and find clips editing?
Lauren LaRosa
Right.
DJ Envy
If you don't control your narrative, somebody.
Charlamagne Tha God
Else will control it.
DJ Envy
Positive comments, we say any going with your interview where she speaks positively about her relationship with Diggy.
Charlamagne Tha God
She did a lot of interviews. On the interviews, they want to talk about me.
Guest Caller / Mr. Show Money
You know what I'm saying in the interview.
DJ Envy
So we know, like, if you track down the interviews, you know, she hit me.
Charlamagne Tha God
Right.
DJ Envy
We live in a real time world. This case is going to be played in real time.
Charlamagne Tha God
It's going to be played in front of the public.
DJ Envy
Public, Billions of people in real time.
Charlamagne Tha God
He's worried about all the wrong things.
He is concerned about all the wrong things. It sounds like he's still obsessed about what his image looks like as opposed to dealing with the reality of his situation. And that is you are facing some real serious accusations. You've been accused of some real serious crimes, and, you know, you should be having a lawyer just doing his due diligence to fight that. But he's trying to manipulate everything behind the scenes.
DJ Envy
But also in the documentary, it shows that he's trying to change his image because he's worried of what the jurors are going to see out there there on him and feel like the jurors are going to be kind of leaning against him because what everybody's putting out there, that's why.
Charlamagne Tha God
And because you're on video stomping out a young lady in the middle of a hallway after running down the hallway with just a towel on, looking like a goddamn madman.
DJ Envy
Yes, but that's part of the reason why he's trying to change his image in the documentary.
Charlamagne Tha God
Yeah. How about clean your soul up? How about be on your knees praying for repentance, praying for forgiveness. How about sitting down, talking to a therapist? You know what I mean? Trying to get your ego right.
DJ Envy
He didn't tape that part.
Charlamagne Tha God
Like, what's going on?
Lauren LaRosa
Well, there were other parts of the documentary as well, too. They alleged some things with him and Biggie, which, you know, we've heard a lot of back and forth about them over the years, but they alleged that Diddy actually used Biggie's money to pay for Biggie's funeral. Let's take a listen.
DJ Envy
Sean assumed the position of his best.
Charlamagne Tha God
Friend in every article and publication, and that wasn't necessarily true.
Lamont Roach Jr
And I'm going to be there for them just like he would be there for them to make sure that they're out.
DJ Envy
Sean said, we're gonna do the biggest.
Charlamagne Tha God
Funeral for Biggie that New York has ever seen. And we start to put that together.
DJ Envy
He starts to see the price, and.
Charlamagne Tha God
He says, we're gonna do the biggest funeral. But Biggie's gonna have to pay for this funeral. He was gonna make the funeral be a recoupable charge to Biggie in death.
DJ Envy
This is one of my closest friends, and it's still one of my closest friends. I feel his loss. I just miss him so much.
Jesse (Jessel Aria)
Much.
Charlamagne Tha God
Sean doing a big show looks good on him, but he's not going to tell the world that Biggie was going to pay for it.
Lamont Roach Jr
He's probably one of the only people I had really trusted, like, for a long time.
DJ Envy
It's not a feeling that I really felt a lot like in my life.
Charlamagne Tha God
I don't know about any of that. Right.
Jesse (Jessel Aria)
That's crazy. I know Biggie just finding out. I know he mad up there.
Lauren LaRosa
Well, I reached out to the estate on some of the claims that were made to just see if they're going to say anything, even legally, because of. Of where this kind of puts the conversation around just his legacy in general. But people are upset about some of this stuff that was added there. People are really upset.
At 50 cents and 50 cent posted an hour ago. He says, I got a lot of ideas, y', all, on the doc. I'm already planning next year. I'm from Southside. We don't come to make friends. We come to take over. So, you know, in the midst of everybody being a questioning, I think he's saying, like, I hear y', all, but it doesn't matter. I'm. I'm doing what I'm doing regardless. And I know that, you know, know there's been a cease and desist that was sent to Netflix from Diddy's team, claiming that, you know, 50 Cent should have been the one to do it because he has, you know, this malice towards Diddy and people were paid, and Netflix is saying nobody was paid and there was never a deal with Diddy. So it's causing fallout.
Charlamagne Tha God
Yeah, but none of that has anything to do with the damage that Diddy did to himself. You know what I'm saying? Like, you can send out your cease and desist and, you know, say things were unauthorized, but you still recorded that. Those, those things still came out of your mouth. Those were your actions that we actually did send, regardless if it was, you know, legal to do or not. Diddy, I haven't seen the whole doc, but from the clips I've heard, he just comes off as a con artist and you can't believe anything he says. Everything is an act. And if that man don't take the time to be still while he's in prison and clean up his soul when he comes home, what happens to him is going to be worse than what's happening to him right now.
DJ Envy
I wouldn't just say con artists watching that dog, that doc, he seems very selfish, very greedy all about himself through.
Charlamagne Tha God
That doc, like most con artists are.
DJ Envy
And if you look at it like they break down a lot. We're going to open up the phone lines. If you've seen the doc, 800-585-1051.
Jesse (Jessel Aria)
But isn't it also, like, it starts from him as a child and how he's like, he's in the hands of people who do the same thing, right? So you learn these behaviors and I'm asking, like, y' all watched it. It's from.
DJ Envy
It talks about the doctors and him learning. They say he learns things from his mother, said he learned things from Andre Harrell. But it breaks down a lot. It talks about how, you know, Big didn't want to go to LA and kind of Puff wanted him to stay in la. It breaks that down. It breaks down the part that, you know, know Biggie was supposed to be going to Europe to do shows. Puff wanted him to stay. And it breaks down a lot. And what that got to do with.
Charlamagne Tha God
What he's in prison for, though, it doesn't.
DJ Envy
This is just. The documentary breaks down everything.
Lauren LaRosa
I think it just, it just leans into the whole, like, power, money, control. He does what he wants to do and he doesn't care about anybody's regard and which is the sentiment of everything we just watched him go through in court with everybody that, you know.
DJ Envy
And I'm just writing down fast. Aubrey O Day, she speaks about how did. He sent her a message and a.
Lauren LaRosa
Message saying, well, no, it was a woman who was at a party in Diddy's home that says, allegedly says she witnessed Diddy and a security guard sexually assaulting Aubrey O. Day.
DJ Envy
Now it's about the email that he allegedly sent us. Remember the email that she read?
Lauren LaRosa
Yeah. It's from that woman.
Guest Caller / Mr. Show Money
All right.
DJ Envy
From that woman.
Lauren LaRosa
Yeah.
Charlamagne Tha God
Yeah.
DJ Envy
It's crazy, but we're gonna open up the phone lines. 800-585-1051. We're going to talk about the Diddy Doc. If you've seen it, what were your thoughts? You got questions. Let's. Let's discuss. All right, but we got Duncan today. I'm not next.
Charlamagne Tha God
Yes, we do. Four after the hour. There is a man from Maine. Do you know anybody from Maine? Exactly. His name is Jose Harvey. He needs to come to the front of the congregation. We like to have a word with him.
DJ Envy
All right, we'll get to that next. It's the Breakfast Club. Come on. Execution on the Donkey of the Day is something to behold. Is it a read?
Lauren LaRosa
They gave me Donkey of the Day and I deserve the.
Charlamagne Tha God
People need to know.
Lauren LaRosa
Well, you need to tell them you have the voice.
Charlamagne Tha God
Tell them.
It'S time for Donkey of the Day.
Jesse (Jessel Aria)
It's a read, but you're so good at it.
DJ Envy
Trying to be a fake ass Char.
Guest Caller / Mr. Show Money
There's only one Charlemagne.
Charlamagne Tha God
Damn Charlemagne.
Lauren LaRosa
Who you giving Dusty of the Day to now, man?
Charlamagne Tha God
You know why life is so funny? Why? Cuz G Herbo was playing and Jess is in the background, like, yo, I love this G herbo record. It's so hard. But then somebody else in the chat is, right? Somebody in the chat said it's too early for these G herbo aggressive run on sentences.
Jesse (Jessel Aria)
The beat is so hard, yo.
Charlamagne Tha God
Oh, that's why art is so subjective, man. Salute to G Herbo, though. Donkey of the for Wednesday, December 3, is a double donkey. First, there is a man from Maine named Jose Harvey. He was 50 years old and he was arrested Sunday after a resident called and reported that a man had broken into their apartment, was sleeping on their couch and refused to leave. Authorities said Harvey could not provide a logical reason why he was in the apartment. If you ask me, it's probably because he was homeless in Maine, okay? And Maine is very cold. All right? Do you know how cold Maine is? All right? This was Bang or Maine. Am I pronouncing that right? Bang or Maine. Now, I'm not no meteorologist, but if it's one thing I know about Maine, and by one thing I know about Maine, I mean literally one thing. This is the one thing I've ever heard about Maine, that it gets very cold, okay? And I did some research this morning, and by research, I mean I Typed in temperature in Bang or Maine. All right? Today is a high of 32 with a low of 211 for the rest of the week. Tomorrow the low is 4 degrees. Okay? Friday's low is 4 degrees with a high is 17. So when I see authorities say Harvey could not provide a logical reason why he was in the apartment, well, the logical reason to me was probably because he was cold, all right? And homeless. Not making any excuses for him because I don't know if that was indeed the reason, but if it is the reason. I've learned in life not to judge people for what they do when they are in survival mode. But understand, if you broke in my house, I don't know your situation. I just know you broke in my house. Now you sleep on my couch and you're refusing to leave. So now I'm in survival mode. So don't judge me when I shoot you, okay? And that's exactly why you shouldn't be breaking into people's houses. Okay? I'm really serious when I say I feel like people who break into other people's houses, they got to be suicidal. Suicidal, all right? It's no way you care about living. You better off playing a game of Russian roulette because you are playing with your life in ways that you don't even understand because you don't know what people holding when you break into their residence. But let's get back to the matter in hand. I told y' all this was a double donkey. All right, you got the first one. Jose Harvey. Jose Harvey broke into somebody's apartment for no logical reason. But I want to play you the actual news report and I want to know if you can tell who the other donkey in this story is. Let's go to WABI 5 News for the report, please.
Lamont Roach Jr
Milford Mann was charged with aggravated criminal trespass after he allegedly broke into a Bangor apartment. Bangor police say 50 year old Jose.
DJ Envy
Harvey was arrested Sunday after a State.
Lamont Roach Jr
Street resident called and reported that a man had broken into their apartment. Police say the resident also told them that Harvey was sleeping on their couch and refused to leave. The tenant told authorities that they later discovered their bathroom window had been opened and all of their Christmas presents had been unwrapped near where Harvey was found. Authorities say Harvey could not provide a logical reason why he was in that apartment.
Charlamagne Tha God
What's the other donkey in this story? Envy. What's the other donkey in this story? Just let me give you a little bit more context, okay? According to Breakfast Club producers, this story was published on November 25th. Okay, November 25th. Play that news report one more time now that you know that.

Lamont Roach Jr

DJ Envy
And all of their Christmas presents had.
Lamont Roach Jr
Been unwrapped near where Harvey was found. Authorities say Harvey could not provide a logical reason why he was in that apartment.
DJ Envy
November 25th.
Charlamagne Tha God
Yes. Christmas presents. Yes. That news report said the tenants discovered their bathroom window had been open and all their Christmas presents had been unwrapped. The Grinch, the other donkey in this story is the tenants of this apartment for already having wrapped Christmas presents two days before Thanksgiving. Okay, who in the hell already got Christmas presents wrapped two days before Thanksgiving? Is the turkey even thawed out? Has any part of Thanksgiving dinner been cooked yet? Has anybody, you know, put the boiled the yams yet? It should be illegal to already have Christmas gifts wrapped before Thanksgiving. We don't even put the lights out until after Thanksgiving. Trees don't even go up until after Thanksgiving. But you already got Christmas Christmas presents wrapped. Nah. Jose and Diddy gonna break in and unwrap your gifts. Okay? This is yet more proof that Thanksgiving doesn't even matter anymore. Okay? Thanksgiving is just a small speed bump between Halloween and the Christmas season. I told y' all the month of November should be the. It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas season. And then December 1st, full blown Christmas. Okay? Mariah Carey song playing Feliz Navidad. Okay, Christmas trees up everywhere.
Lamont Roach Jr
Light right?
Charlamagne Tha God
Let's get it. It is time. Because once we do that, we will be looking at these individuals like they're normal. But right now I'm looking at these tenants like they're crazy. Please give Jose Harvey and the tennis of this residence the biggest he. Huh?
Jesse (Jessel Aria)
Bahamba, bro. What is up with you? You mad because they. They decided the the cash in on the the Christmas presents and have them.
Charlamagne Tha God
Under the tree already wrapped by November 25th.
DJ Envy
You are victim blamed. They got their stuff together and they've been saving all year long. Got their gifts early.
Jesse (Jessel Aria)
They went shopping early.
Charlamagne Tha God
They wanted November 25th Christmas presents already wrapped. Yes. That's. That's mad, man.
Jesse (Jessel Aria)
You tell me what's wrong with that. You tell me what's wrong with that. Is it the fact that they making the kids wait, like, I don't even.
Charlamagne Tha God
Know if they got kids. You know what I'm saying? I just don't like people that, you know, plan that far in advance.
Jesse (Jessel Aria)
That's crazy.
Charlamagne Tha God
Why you got your life together so much that you already got your Christmas presents wrapped November 25?
Jesse (Jessel Aria)
You are a Grinch, nigga. This nigga's a hater.
DJ Envy
All these stores are going out of business. Maybe they got the gifts mad early when the stores was getting out. Going out of business.
Charlamagne Tha God
But it's one thing to have the gifts in the house. But you already got a rap, too, yo. It's one thing if you buy them.
DJ Envy
You're a hater.
Jesse (Jessel Aria)
Black people make for anything.
DJ Envy
This wasn't even humbug.
Charlamagne Tha God
This wasn't even the sales. We didn't even get to the Black Friday sales. This was November 25th. There was no Black Friday.
Sales.
DJ Envy
Maybe they bought everything on team and they ordered it early because of the tariffs, and they got it early.
Charlamagne Tha God
Or they definitely getting donkey for wrapping up teu gifts. Who the hell would waste Christmas presents on teu gifts? And I love teu. I would never wrap it up.
Jesse (Jessel Aria)
They already come wrapped.
Charlamagne Tha God
You see what I'm saying? I don't waste no good.
DJ Envy
Maybe the gift wrap came from. Maybe the gift wrap came from teu.
Charlamagne Tha God
You can buy gift wrap from teu.
DJ Envy
I'm sure you can. You can buy anything.
Charlamagne Tha God
Google right?
DJ Envy
You can.
Jesse (Jessel Aria)
You can buy anything from Timu. Yo, but teu come wrapped up with tape.
DJ Envy
Yeah, Alibaba or Timu. I'm sure they got it for sale.
Charlamagne Tha God

Jesse (Jessel Aria)
Damn, man.
DJ Envy
You see it there?
Charlamagne Tha God
I'm looking it up right now.
Lamont Roach Jr

They did amazing job with it. But let's talk about it when we come back. What's your thoughts on it? Can you turn this off, please?
Charlamagne Tha God
This is the great football. You Dominican, don't you ever disrespect your own people. This is the greatest Christmas song of all time. Okay, I've come to that conclusion. Felice Navidad slaps dropping the clues about.
DJ Envy
If y' all talking about it, you.
Charlamagne Tha God
Know we talking about it.
DJ Envy
It's topic time. Call 800-585-1051 to join into the the discussion with the Breakfast Club. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy. Just hilarious. Charlamagne, the guy. We are the Breakfast Club now, if you're just joining us, we open up the phone lines and talking about the Diddy doc. 800-585-1051. It's called Reckoning. It's on Netflix. It's four parts.
Charlamagne Tha God
I haven't seen it.
DJ Envy
If you haven't seen it, I would just say it details a lot. A majority of Diddy's life. It starts from him as a child, how he grew up, his father being a hustler and killed. It goes into how he was raised, the Catholic schools he went to him, how he got his job, how he got into the industry. It has videos, it has footage, it has interviews from his friends, people in the industry, the. The ex, the co founder of, of Bad Boy with him. I didn't, I, I actually didn't know that Bad Boy was co founded by him and his friend. Uh, he gave his friend 25% and Puff gave his mother 75%. And when bad Boy took off, allegedly Bad Puff went into the office with a baseball bat and said, I need that 25 back. And he got the 25 back. That's all that. The doc he explains that talks about his relationships with his child's mothers and it just really died on the nipples.
Charlamagne Tha God
Did they talk about the man on his nipples?
Lauren LaRosa
I didn't hear the on the nipples.
Jesse (Jessel Aria)
50 was not about to put that.
DJ Envy
Name, but they do have jurors in.
Lauren LaRosa
There that talk about that after the sanitizer part.
Charlamagne Tha God
Yes.
Lauren LaRosa
Or maybe before.
Lamont Roach Jr
Yes.
Charlamagne Tha God
That is crazy how you walk through Harlem and shake a bunch of people hand and hug a bunch of people and say, you gotta go wash, but you rubbed another man's on your nipples and fell asleep.
DJ Envy
In that part. He talks about, you know, he's saying hello to a bunch of people, shaking hands, giving hugs, and in the back of the car he Says he needs to wash. And this isn't a.
Lauren LaRosa
He should have been so humble.
Charlamagne Tha God
Yeah.
DJ Envy
It makes it seem like he doesn't wanna deal with peasants. I don't wanna deal with you. I can't touch your hands. It was.
Lauren LaRosa
It was.
DJ Envy
It shows Diddy as a.
Jesse (Jessel Aria)
What?
Lauren LaRosa
Did you see my text?
DJ Envy
I did see your text. I did see your text. Yeah. It shows him as a nasty, negative, unhumble person. And that throughout his career. And that's everybody talking. That's what the sentiment of that documentary. What do you think?
Lauren LaRosa
Yes, I agree. And I think it also shows, like, a lot of greed and just lack of any type of care for people that I think honestly cared about him.
DJ Envy
Did anybody talk nice about the Internet, doc?
Lauren LaRosa
I think Kalina tried a bit. When she talked about, like, you know, she loved him so much that she would definitely jump in his casket.
Guest Caller / Mr. Show Money
Why?
Lauren LaRosa
I. I mean, for like one album.
Charlamagne Tha God
And you jumping in caskets, you know, what is going on? One album, yo, one album. Come on.
Lauren LaRosa
Y says she, you know, was trying to protect him in the culture during all that. Cassie, what culture?
Charlamagne Tha God
We got to stop saying that. What culture are we protecting?
DJ Envy
Whoa, what a vibe we've got, y'.
Mimi Brown
All.
DJ Envy
As always, it's classic HBCU energy. Non stop action. The band is rocking and the crowd lit. Chants echoing, drums beating, everybody showing that school pride. Moments like this. Yeah, they call for an ice cold Coca Cola. Crisp and refreshing. That's a game changer right there.
Guest Caller / Mr. Show Money
Mmm.
DJ Envy
Yeah, that taste always hit the right note. Just like the band at halftime. Passionate fans, school colors everywhere, and an ice cold Coca Cola. That's a winning combo. No matter the place, no matter the moment. Everybody knows fan work is thirsty work. So grab a Coca Cola and keep that HBCU pride going.
Lauren LaRosa

May 24, 1990. A pipe bomb explodes in the front seat of environmental activist Judy Berry's car.
Charlamagne Tha God
I knew it was a bomb the second that it.
Jesse (Jessel Aria)
I felt it rip through me with.
Lauren LaRosa
Just a force more powerful and terrible.
Mimi Brown
Than anything that I could describe.
DJ Envy
In season two of Rip Current, we ask who tried to kill Judy Berry and why she received death threats before the bombing. She received more threats after the bombing.
Charlamagne Tha God
The men and women who were hurt.
DJ Envy
Had planned to lead a summer of.
Charlamagne Tha God
Militant protest against logging practices in Northern California.
DJ Envy
They were clocked climbing trees and they were sabotaging logging equipment in the woods. The timber industry, I mean, it was the number one industry in the area.
Lamont Roach Jr
But more than it was the culture.
DJ Envy
It was the way of life.
Charlamagne Tha God
I think that this is a deliberate.
Lauren LaRosa
Attempt to sabotage our movement.
DJ Envy
Episodes of rip current season two are available now. Listen on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcast.
It's okay not to be okay sometimes and be able to build strength and love within each other.
Charlamagne Tha God
Thanksgiving isn't just about food. It's a day for us to show up for one another. I'm Eliot Khani, host of the podcast Family Therapy, a series where real families come together to heal and find hope. What would be a clue that would be like? I've gotten lots of text messages from him. This one's from a little bit better.
Mimi Brown
Of a version of him because he's feeding himself well. It's always concern like, are you eating well?
Lauren LaRosa
He's actually an amazing cook.
DJ Envy
There was this one time where we.
Guest Caller / Mr. Show Money
Had neighbors and I saved their dog and I ended up inviting them over for food.
DJ Envy
And that was like one of my proudest moments.

Lauren LaRosa
You know what's become attractive to me?
Mimi Brown
And it's because I've self corrected and.
Lauren LaRosa
I guess I detoxified myself.
Mimi Brown
Accountability, like it has become mad attractive.
Lauren LaRosa
So attractive to me and everything else in between. I've told my most embarrassing moment on this podcast before, which was me taking a in a Ziploc bag.
DJ Envy
So listen to Ellis Ever after on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcast or wherever you get your podcast.
Charlamagne Tha God
By protecting somebody like did, you're not protecting hip hop culture. What you're actually protecting is a culture of abuse.
Lauren LaRosa
And that's what was the point of this documentary.
Charlamagne Tha God
You're protecting a culture of people who are driven by legal. You're not correcting, I mean protecting hip hop culture.
DJ Envy
And people were also mad the fact that, that 50 put this out and was like 50s foul for this. But I think people should just want the truth, right? And if that's the truth, you can't be mad. And I know people, people are skewed, right, Because Puffton gave you so many different things. He didn't gave you Biggie. He didn't gave you total. He didn't gave you Craig Mack. He didn't gave you the 90s and 2000 sound.
Lauren LaRosa
Mac wife is in there pissed at Diddy. Craig Mack's wife is in there pissed at Diddy.
Charlamagne Tha God
Yeah, but people are complex though. I mean, and, and you know, yeah, he did contribute all of those things and he did do some really foul things too. So you know, you have to deal with the complexities of all of that.
DJ Envy
Right? But you can still be a monster and giving you some of the best musics of your career of your life.
Lauren LaRosa
And they actually say in the cease and desist that this is like black one black famous man against like another. Which a lot of people are saying as well too.
Charlamagne Tha God
But I think what you mean black famous man against. Against another.
Lauren LaRosa
So like you're putting 50 Cent, who's the EP of this doc. They're saying that Netflix is using one famous black man to just go and be against another.
Charlamagne Tha God
Talk about that for a second. I keep people, I keep hearing people say that, right?
DJ Envy
What's that?
Charlamagne Tha God
You don't know the backstory of the 50 Cent Diddy situation. Nobody does. And if you knew the backstory of the 50 Cent Diddy situation, all of this would make sense. But I will tell y', all, this 48 laws of power says do not offend the wrong person.
DJ Envy
I don't even know the backstory, so it's not. I don't know.
Charlamagne Tha God
We do, we do know enough of the backstory.
Lauren LaRosa
What, the shopping?
Charlamagne Tha God
No, we do know enough of the back. We know the Diddy and the baby mama.
DJ Envy
Correct.
Lauren LaRosa
Okay.
DJ Envy
Right.
Charlamagne Tha God
And it's one thing if you with the baby mama, but if you're gonna, if you're gonna taunt somebody about that. Right. Do not offend the wrong person. Now, also, he clearly offended the wrong person on his ass for life.
DJ Envy
Also, in the doc, it makes it seem like that was Diddy's M.O. they talk about how Diddy kicked it to Suge Knightside chick kicked it, took what's his name's girl. Alby Shore's girl. Took Eric Sermon's girl. So the doc also talks about how Diddy's revenge T was to. To f your chick.
Charlamagne Tha God
And by the way, if you, if you, if you f my.
Lauren LaRosa
Sound like Drake.
DJ Envy
Isn't that what Drake does?
Lauren LaRosa
I think a lot of men do that.
Charlamagne Tha God
If you f my chick, cool. That's, that's, that's up between you and her. But you're not going to taunt me about it if you're going to taunt me about it. Right? And, and, and, and, and behind the scenes, I'mma be on your head probably for a long time. So I don't have a problem with any of this. Right.
DJ Envy
But anyway, let's go to the phone line.
Guest Caller / Mr. Show Money
Hey, good morning. It's Jasmine from Milwaukee.
DJ Envy
Jazz from Milwaukee. Talk to us.
Lauren LaRosa
I, I never thought I would say this, but for the first time, I feel like 50 Cent got it right. This is like the documentary. And first of all, Charlemagne, you haven't watched it, so I really feel like you need to watch it to put.
Guest Caller / Mr. Show Money
Things into perspective, because this is years of speculation. It's years of things that, that the fans really felt like we knew, but.
Lauren LaRosa
We were able to really hear from everybody's mouth directly.
Guest Caller / Mr. Show Money
My biggest takeaways were the assaults on.
Lauren LaRosa
His previous executive, the way he did.
Guest Caller / Mr. Show Money
The lawsuit with the producer, Lil Rod. It was just crazy to me. And things that I never really thought about in place of how he uses his power.
Lauren LaRosa
It's just insane to me.
Guest Caller / Mr. Show Money
So, Charlemagne, I really feel like you.
Lauren LaRosa
Need to see it.
Charlamagne Tha God
I'm gonna watch it. But I mean, you know, remember I used to work with Wendy Wimps, so he knows.
Guest Caller / Mr. Show Money
Hello?
DJ Envy
Who's this?
Guest Caller / Mr. Show Money
Yo, it's NBA J calling out of Columbus, Ohio. What's good? Breakfast Club.
Yeah. So about the Diddy doc, I just feel like it needs. The Diddy slander just needs to stop. Like, we know what he's been up.
Charlamagne Tha God
To since the 90s.
Guest Caller / Mr. Show Money
We know what it takes to be in the entertainment business. And it's just all part of the game.
Charlamagne Tha God
No, it's not. I want y' all to stop saying that. No, it's not. It don't take that kind of behavior to be in the entertainment business. That is not part of the game.
DJ Envy
And I will say that the sad thing about it is a lot of people feel that way, but that's not you. You shouldn't have to no D and.
Charlamagne Tha God
Tell on your.
Name with it. Tell on yourself. You right. I'm giving you a hope.
Lauren LaRosa
Yes.
Jesse (Jessel Aria)
Come on.
Lauren LaRosa
Don't be running from Envy is really running from the D right now. He is running from Charlemagne right now.
Charlamagne Tha God
I just want to give.
Lauren LaRosa
Why you running?
Charlamagne Tha God
Why you running? You should not have had to do that. Oh, my God.
Lauren LaRosa
All he had to do was sit on the lap and you had to.
Charlamagne Tha God
Logan, Logan, we got to talk to your dad.
DJ Envy
It's the Breakfast Club.
Charlamagne Tha God
Finally a breakthrough. Finally a breakthrough.
DJ Envy
Hello, who's this?
Guest Caller / Mr. Show Money
My name. My name Mooney. I'm from Hampton, man.
DJ Envy
Hampton. 757. Talk to us about the doc. You seen the dock? What were your thoughts, bro?
Guest Caller / Mr. Show Money
Yeah, 757 in the building, man. First things first. DJ, man, I got. I got a To pick with you too, man. I got a bone to pick with you, but nah, Diddy, Diddy, he went wrong.
Charlamagne Tha God
Yeah.
Guest Caller / Mr. Show Money
I mean, we in 20, 25, everything is recorded on camera. But I think Diddy went wrong yet. Is giving the people right. Too much. Too much, right? Putting too much on camera, right? So Diddy being a high level figure like he is, you know, you would think that he would like limit some of the stuff he put on camera, right? But I think. I just think he gave him too much, right, Putting too much on camera to give him the ammo to come out with a documentary. And then 50, right? 50. He's not gonna let up on Diddy, right? We know the backstory, you know, about when a biggie situation flag place. And then 50 essentially went to Diddy and Diddy did not him. Because Diddy wouldn't want to rock with the gangster rappers no more, right? So 50 been having, you know, a vendetta against him and then the baby mama and stuff, and all that, right? So, yeah, I think, you know, did. He just gave him too much Ammo did. He gave him too much ammo, man.
Charlamagne Tha God
Yeah. You cannot offend the wrong person, which I'm telling you from them clips that I saw, man, all I see is a person driven by ego. And when you're driven by ego that much, you don't have a ability to understand or care about the feelings of others. Like he. There's no reason for him to record. Be recording any of that stuff. He was recording.
Lauren LaRosa
He thought he was recording the biggest comeback story ever. Like, I really thought. Think he thought he was going to overcome this and he was going to have all the footage of him figuring it out and not some of the.
DJ Envy
Stuff that he was saying. Like, you don't record that. And, you know, documentaries are always funny to me.
Charlamagne Tha God
Right.
DJ Envy
And the reason I say that is you actually using other people's content without clearing it, which is crazy.
Lauren LaRosa
Well, Netflix is saying that they me did everything the way that they needed to do. Like, they're pushing back on it. They're saying it wasn't illegal.
Charlamagne Tha God
But even if it. Even if it was, you still recorded it, dummy.
DJ Envy
Yeah, you recorded.
Charlamagne Tha God
You still had somebody following you around with a cameraman while you was doing that type of stuff. I don't care if it was illegal. Why would you record that?
DJ Envy
I'm with you.
Lauren LaRosa
Hello.
Guest Caller / Mr. Show Money
Hello.
DJ Envy
Hey, what's your name, mama?
Guest Caller / Mr. Show Money
Hey, good morning. My name is J. Calling from him.
Jada G. What's up, Charlamagne.
Charlamagne Tha God
Peace. Jada G. Well, first of all.
Guest Caller / Mr. Show Money
And hi, Jazz. And hi, Lawrence.
Lauren LaRosa
Hey, good morning.
Guest Caller / Mr. Show Money
I'm very excited. Good morning. So I want to talk about the documentary because I watched all four episodes last night, and I feel like one. It was definitely weaved together very well. It was 50 gave us some receipts that we had never saw. I think that anyone, even if they were straddling a fence about what Diddy did or Diddy do it or if they felt like it was fair. What you really got was a very rare and complex look at the man and how he was dismissive and he really didn't value anyone in his life. Even if you watch it, to me, it's going to sound harsh. Even his children, making them come up with all of these defenses and put out all of these posts because he was just narcissistic. And I think that a lot of people got to see behind the veil. Now, that was the part about Diddy, but I want to know, on the flip side, about 50, so now, since he is, you know, the savior of abuse and particularly women in the industry, is he going to Make a Chronicle on Dr. Dre in the Chronic and how he was abusing women in the industry too. Because if it's good for the goose, it got to be good for the gander.
DJ Envy
Yeah. I don't think 50 is trying to be a captain save for anybody or captain save anybody.
I think he's just doing documentary.
Charlamagne Tha God
Just doing.
DJ Envy
What'S going on today.
Lauren LaRosa
Ever since you talked about having an smd.
Charlamagne Tha God
I'm not gonna be the only hoe exposed this morning, Okay? I exposed myself this morning. I will not be the only hoe that gets exposed on the bridge.
DJ Envy
I don't think that's what 50's doing. I just think he just eping and project.
Charlamagne Tha God
That is the danger of eping a doc like this. Because people are going to have those questions just like that young lady lady had, you know, I mean, that's why I said you can't hold. That's why I don't like when people say you're holding up a mirror to hip hop culture. Because he's not. He's, you know, actually telling us a story about one individual. Right. Because in order to hold up a mirror to hip hop culture, then you got to hold up a mirror to yourself and your team.
DJ Envy
Hello? Who's this?
Guest Caller / Mr. Show Money
Oh, yeah, what up as well. Yo, what's good?
DJ Envy
Talk to us. What's up, bro?
Guest Caller / Mr. Show Money
Yo, look, man, watching that documentary as a film geek and everything from Alberta Vernon, it was shot beautifully and everything, right? But like I said, Diddy just got this whole selfishness and it's all about getting the girl, man. Like, if you look at it, everything is about trying to rule a girl and this and this and that. And it sucks that, like I said, he's from Mount Vernon and people from out running trying to get an industry. I don't want everybody thinking that, yo, that's. That's how we be thinking, you understand? Like, I'm on the bus right now. I'm in my running right now, if you speak. So, like, it's not that his legacy is going to be tarnished if all of that stuff was true. Like, you understand? Like, it really sucks.
Charlamagne Tha God
Yeah.
DJ Envy
I will say this, though, if you see the documentary, the one, the thing that's so impressive is some of the footage that they have is just like, we've never seen it. Like, they have footage of not just Biggie. They have footage of the truck that Biggie's in before he dies taking off. And it says, never be seen footage.
Charlamagne Tha God
Like, I feel like I've seen that a million times.
DJ Envy
You got to see them in the truck, not it pulling off. Because even in the video, in a documentary they say this has never been seen, never seen footage before before. They have footage of, of the actual. Where Diddy is doing the basketball game and the tramp and you know, where the people die. They have footage of the basketball game inside. Like it's, it's done very well and they actually did their homework because it's, it's a lot of footage that you be like, damn, how they get this?
Charlamagne Tha God
I feel like we've seen a lot of that before, but we just never seen it put together in a documentary.
DJ Envy
Like yeah, maybe.
Charlamagne Tha God
I mean we've seen. We've definitely seen that stuff before. Like they. I remember when they had the press conference and Diddy had his jacket over his head the whole time. You remember that? When he had press conference after the basketball game. I remember seeing a lot of that stuff.
DJ Envy
Yeah. So I mean they break down a lot. It's a great documentary. It shows a lot. If you get a chance, definitely. Check it out.
Charlamagne Tha God
Everybody recording everything except for the nut on the nipples. Okay.
DJ Envy
That's all you wanted to see.
Charlamagne Tha God
You would watch it.
Guest Caller / Mr. Show Money
No, I would not.
Jesse (Jessel Aria)
Chill out, Nutty Professor. This is just so gay.
Out yo on the nips.
Charlamagne Tha God
What if when Diddy come out. That's his, his alias when he produced now. Cuz he can't be called Diddy or nothing else. The Nutty Professor.
Fire. Who is this Nutty Professor? Professor.
DJ Envy
All right, we got the latest with Lauren coming up.
Charlamagne Tha God
What we talking about?
Lauren LaRosa
Yeah, we are going to get into Snoop Dogg. Snoop Dogg has some things to get off his chest. He went to Instagram and did that and you know, he also has some.
Charlamagne Tha God
Things to get off his chest.
Jesse (Jessel Aria)
Who?
Charlamagne Tha God
The man who got on his nipple and Diddy had to rub it on his.
Lauren LaRosa
Oh my God. God.
DJ Envy
You should do a documentary. Nipples. I want to see. Look at him.
Charlamagne Tha God
We want to see who got that footage. Is he recording every goddamn footage? Stupid.
DJ Envy
Oh my gosh. It's the Breakfast Clubed.
Jesse (Jessel Aria)
Let's get right. Lauren becoming a straight fat.
DJ Envy
She gets it from somebody that knows somebody.
Charlamagne Tha God
Some details.
Lauren LaRosa
I'm the home girl that knows a little bit about everything.
Charlamagne Tha God
She be having the latest on.
DJ Envy
With Lauren LaRosa.
Charlamagne Tha God
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.
Lauren LaRosa
So Snoop Dogg is going at his cousin Daz Dillinger. For those of you guys who don't know, he is another artist and this is all about their Death Row records history. Now let's take a listen.
DJ Envy
You're not explaining Daz, you know, another artist. Another artist.
Charlamagne Tha God
That's the legendary Daz Dillinger dog pounding producer.
DJ Envy
Produce a lot of the stuff, cousin.
Lauren LaRosa
Thank you.
Charlamagne Tha God
He produced Tupac ambitions as a ride.
Lauren LaRosa
Well, I was going to get to. I was going to get to Daz's audio and then allow him just another artist. Let's take a listen to Snoop Dogg. Shut up.
DJ Envy
I see you ain't got to do but hate on me, huh? In a minute I'm you up, cuz. On some real. Not physically, but business wise. Cause you broke as a mother right now. So I'm gonna you up in a minute.
Guest Caller / Mr. Show Money
Cause leave me alone.
DJ Envy
Leave me the alone.
Guest Caller / Mr. Show Money
Leave me alone cuz I'm gonna you up. Leave me alone.
Lauren LaRosa
Yeah. So he posted this after Daz made a series of claims.
DJ Envy
So let me just say that he also said he wasn't gonna do it physically. He was gonna do it business wise.
Lauren LaRosa
Yes, okay. Yes, he said it. People heard him.
DJ Envy
Sure.
Lauren LaRosa
Yes. Now the reason why this is happening is because in a series of different statements, Daz claims that Snoop Dogg went behind his back to copyright music that he created as the super producer and making some of the biggest records that we've heard at the iconic label Death Row Records. Because Snoop is trying to sell his massive catalog. Let's take a listen to Daz.
DJ Envy
The paw is trademarked.
Guest Caller / Mr. Show Money
Like I told Snoop, you got rejected and I got accepted. That was the money maker. The paw is like the apple sign.
DJ Envy
Like I said before.
Guest Caller / Mr. Show Money
And like I said, they tried to go behind my back and trademark all my work and then plumb my face like, yeah, we got. That's all we wanted. Cause I'm finna sell everything for a billion dollars to Universal. You know what I mean? I'll be selling my now.
Lauren LaRosa
What do you mean by selling? He said he was gonna sell it or what? They. They're selling Death Row. The new Death Row that just came.
Guest Caller / Mr. Show Money
Everything Snoop in the world, where he gonna sell all that for a billion dollars, you know, mother cash out for their catalog and then he sell that and he just start over and make new music.
Lauren LaRosa
Yeah. So their issue, I mean, Snoop's gonna handle it business wise because their issue is in business. And a lot of the.
Daz was a part of creating or actually created, like with Dog Pound and a ton of other things.
Charlamagne Tha God
Ain't no fun if the homies can't have none. I ain't mad at you. Yeah, okay. Ambitious as A rider got my mind made up. He did lady of Rage Afro puffs. And it's crazy. You don't know that because you dress like her right now. That's exactly how lady arranged dressed in that video. Didn't Lady AR dress like that in the video? If I'm not mistaken, didn't she have that outfit on Afro puff?
DJ Envy
I don't remember.
Charlamagne Tha God
Full leather, one T joint.
DJ Envy
I don't remember. But like you said, he was probably one of the biggest producers outside of Dr. Dre for.
Charlamagne Tha God
For a while, long time. I mean, the Warren G Dr. Dre Dash he got. I think if I'm not mistaken, Jadakiss and dad's got a collaboration album coming. I remember seeing that. I saw somebody promote that. I don't know if it was real, though. You never know what's AI nowadays.
Lamont Roach Jr
That's right.
Jesse (Jessel Aria)
Well, I don't know.
Lauren LaRosa
I hope they figure it out. I feel like when you first of all the family, but also when you have this history with somebody, and I mean iconic history, I just hate to see things play out like this and publicly in Snoop Dogg's video. I don't know if you guys caught it, but somebody's in the background cries, he's recording. Like you're not about to put that on the Internet. Like you can hear someone say that. But it's because all of this is so public now. Like you would want them to figure it out behind closed doors.
Charlamagne Tha God
I stay out of family business.
DJ Envy
Are they family for real?
Charlamagne Tha God
For real.
Lamont Roach Jr
Yeah.
Charlamagne Tha God
They ain't saying that just because they Crips.
Because they actually family. Okay.
Lauren LaRosa
Well, hopefully the family system down and they figure it out. Now in other news, Burna Boy, and this is a story that. That I don't know. I feel like he's. Burning Boy is getting dragged about something. Nice. Very nice and very thoughtful and trying to throw some comfort to the families of the children. The. The four. The four children into 124.21y old as well. Two that were killed in Stockton, California. I know we talked about this with Jason Lee in front page news with Mimi where Jason was talking about how it's not gangster to kill kids. Well, Burn A Boy basically saw our report here on the Breakfast Club and Wack 100 connected Jason Lee and Burnable. And Burnable has offered to cover the funerals for, you know, these children. And a lot of people are taking this moment to continue to hate Burna Boy. And I understand, like Burna Boy last week had some issues going on because of something he said at A concert to a fan. Like he wanted a fan to leave the concert because they were asleep at the concert.
Charlamagne Tha God
One don't have nothing to do with the other. Okay. Drop on the clues. Bombs for Burner Boy for doing that. A amazing deed.
Lauren LaRosa
Yeah.
Charlamagne Tha God
Paying for those funerals. And I guess. Yes, guess who don't care. That family. That family is so happy probably to be receiving that blessing right now during the holiday season. It's a sad state of affairs that they even have to bury their kids to begin with. But I am happy Burner Boy covered those expenses.
Lauren LaRosa
Jason Lee said after the Breakfast Club shared his story, it caught the attention of Whack100 who reached out and connected me with Burner. Burner didn't know these families, but when he heard what happened, he stepped up with compassion, offered to cover the cost for the kids we lost. That kind of love and generosity matters. It won't erase the tragedy, but it gives these families one less burden to carry.
Charlamagne Tha God
Hold on now. TMZ and Daily Mail said Burner Boy was listening to the Breakfast Club. And then Burner Boy reached out to wack 100 and whack 100 reached out to Jason Lee.
Lauren LaRosa
That's what I just said.
Charlamagne Tha God
No, it's not.
Lauren LaRosa
I said, after the Breakfast Club shared this story, it caught the attention of Wack100 who reached out and.
DJ Envy
She don't hear what you saying. She don't listen.
Charlamagne Tha God
I know she don't.
DJ Envy
She don't listen.
Lauren LaRosa
Wait. Say what you just said again.
DJ Envy
You don't listen. You got to learn to listen.
Lauren LaRosa
What did he say?
DJ Envy
When you're in your relationship, when your man told, you got to listen, cuz it's my relationship.
Lauren LaRosa
It's my relationship outfit. I swear we just said the same thing.
Charlamagne Tha God
Damn. Damn.
Jesse (Jessel Aria)
Yeah, y' all didn't.
Lauren LaRosa
But just what did he say?
Jesse (Jessel Aria)
So you. It was the opposite way around. You said that Jason Lee had hit somebody, but it was the other way around.
Charlamagne Tha God
Like it don't matter.
Jesse (Jessel Aria)
That was confusing me. Either way, Burner Boy did a great deal. And there's one less. One less burden that the family got to deal with around the holidays.
Charlamagne Tha God
And salute to Mimi Brown for amplifying that story.
Jesse (Jessel Aria)
Absolutely. Salute to Mimi Brown.
DJ Envy
All right, well, that's right.
Charlamagne Tha God
Where's Sim at? Sim here.
DJ Envy
Sim in the backpack.
Charlamagne Tha God
Sim, come here right now.
Lauren LaRosa
I wanted to go to your rap list to see who y' all was listening to.
DJ Envy
Oh, go ahead.
Charlamagne Tha God

Lauren LaRosa
Yes. Okay. So, Jess, you got your rap list. I know we got a rap. Definitely okay, so who are you guys? Top artists of 2025 that you've been listening to on either Apple Music or Spotify. Envy. I know you got Spotify.
DJ Envy
Yeah, Spotify.
Jesse (Jessel Aria)
Mine is Chris Brown, Kendrick Lamar, and Trey Song.
Lauren LaRosa
What about you, Charlize?
Charlamagne Tha God
You know what's so crazy? Earlier this year, Ryan Coogler was here. You can go back and watch the interview with Ryan Coogler. This is when Sinners came out. And I don't know how we got on a conversation about Young Dolph, but I told Ryan Coogler I had been listening to so much Young Dolph lately, and I didn't even realize that was gonna be my top artist. But Young Dolph was my top artist. My top song was 100 shots. My top album was let's get it thug motivation 101.
Lauren LaRosa
My top song was It Keeps Happening to Me. Kierra Shay.
DJ Envy
I'm sorry.
Lauren LaRosa
It's a gospel song. It's a nice song. And the top album was Some sexy songs. For you. Drake is my top artist, too.
Charlamagne Tha God
What keeps happening to you?
Lauren LaRosa
It's about accepting your blessings that you're walking into. I listen to it every morning before I come in here and deal with you the devil.
DJ Envy
First of all, my top artist was Mary J. Blige.
Charlamagne Tha God
Okay?
DJ Envy

Jesse (Jessel Aria)
New Jack Swing.
Charlamagne Tha God
Drop one of clues Bombs for Sim.
DJ Envy
Tell us why.
Charlamagne Tha God
First tell us why is a young lady who we met years ago, she used to intern for Elvis Duran. And she wanted to intern at Breakfast Club. And she came to intern at Breakfast Club. And she is by far the most thorough person you know of this new class of people. How long you been here now, Sim?
Lauren LaRosa
January will be seven years.
Charlamagne Tha God
Sim has been here of seven years since January. She was a Black Effect producer. Okay. And she works here at the Breakfast Club. And now Sim has become the music director.
The reason I love this is because when we first met Sim, Sim didn't know what she wanted to do. And she was saying she wanted to be talent. What uncle told you stuff?
Lauren LaRosa
That is not what I wanted to do. He said I'd be much better behind the scenes. He said, go talk to Thea Mitchum. And I did that.
Charlamagne Tha God
And you need to be in program.
Lauren LaRosa
Completely redirected my path.
Guest Caller / Mr. Show Money
And.
Charlamagne Tha God
And she did that. And seven years later, she is the music director for Power. Congratulations. How old are you, Sam? 31. 31.

Now, Jess, this Saturday, where you gonna be?
Jesse (Jessel Aria)
I'm gonna be in Hartford, Connecticut, guys, so get your tickets. I'll be at the Funny Bone Comedy Club Friday and Saturday. We got four shows. Me and my guy, Desi Alexander, will be hitting the stage. I was just in Mashantucket, but apparently that's like, two, three hours from Hartford, Connecticut. So if you missed me when I was at Foxwoods Casino a couple months ago, then you can get your tickets@JessalariusOfficial.com to come and see me at the Funny Bone in Hartford, Connecticut. Love you, Connecticut. Can't wait to get there.

Charlamagne Tha God
That is funny as hell. Listen. Salute to Sim again, man. Samantha Wilson Wilson. You know, I love those kind of stories to watch somebody go from intern, you know, to work their way up. The producer. She's a producer at Black Effect, producing here on Breakfast Club. Now she's the music director for Power 151. And the thing that is the most. One of the most intriguing things about Sim is it's not just her talent and her work ethic, but it's her attitude.
DJ Envy
Yep.
Charlamagne Tha God
And I need all of y' all out there to know that when it comes to success, for success, attitude is equally as important. Important as ability. Okay? You have to have the right attitude. I actually think the right attitude will get you farther along than having having the greatest ability. But for success, attitude is equally as important as ability. Have a great day, Breakfast Club.

Lauren LaRosa provided credible industry analysis on the Diddy doc and handled pop culture stories with insider knowledge.
