Guess what day it is? Guess what day it is? - Hump Day? - Yes, now. - Yes, it's Wednesday, Hump Day, good morning, and today's the first day I could actually, like, breathe clearly since the last five days. - You still sound congested. - I'm a little congested, but I can breathe, look. I can breathe a little bit. - Don't breathe too much in here. - No, man. - We don't want those germs circulating around. - Yeah, I had the common cold. - Did you come in and be around people with a cold still? Like, don't they tell you if you have a cold, stay home? Because then you could get everybody else sick. - They do, but I mean, for the last-- - Damn, they do, but I don't care about y'all. - I mean, since I've been alive, you have a cold, you come to work. Like, it is what it is. - Since you've been alive. - Yes. - I've been told that if you have a cold, it's rude to come in and spread it to everybody. - That's recently, they started that because of COVID. - That is not recent. That is, if you have the flu, if you're sick, if you have a cold-- - You've been here before sick with a cold. Yes, you have. - No, I haven't. - Yes, you have, that's a lie. You've been here before sick. - When? - I've been here before sick. Charlamagne's been here before sick, before, before COVID. Yes, absolutely. - Now if I'm sick, I take a day off. - That is not true. People go to work when they're sick. You could get everybody else to--

Yeah somebody got me sick so. So you want to just spread it? Pass it around. Wow that's a terrible way to say it. I'm just joking. That actually sounds like a crime.

jayyoung.com. Morning everybody it's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne the Guy, we are the Breakfast Club. Let's get some front page news. Where we starting Yeezy? All right well experts are saying to start booking your Thanksgiving and Christmas flights now. Even though there's been a lot of chaos and cancellations they said that the best time to book holiday travel is in June and July. Although it's not too late now to get a deal before prices spike. The earlier you book the better your chances are of also getting a non-stop early morning flight. Because you know when we go on vacation you want that early morning flight because you want to get that full day that you pay for at whatever hotel or resort that you're staying at. So flights early in the morning are also a lot less likely to be cancelled than those in the afternoon or in the evening. And also having an itinerary with no connections increases your odds of not getting a cancellation or delay. Yeah I tell anybody if they have somewhere to go and they can afford it I would leave the day

Before because flights have been canceling like crazy. Like the other day I was supposed to come back here from Charlotte and flight was canceled late at night. And then you stuck, you're stuck at the hotel. You're stuck trying to figure out where you can go. I had to call you one time and ask, so what hotel I can stay with? Stay with, and she was like, Oh, you know there's a hotel connected to the airport? - In Detroit, the Westin. - Yeah, but it's been crazy out there for flights. So if you can give yourself a little, a day extra if you can. - Right, so they're saying now for Thanksgiving in particular you should book your flights by late August or early September at the latest. After Halloween, those prices are gonna increase considerably. - And if you have a credit card, which I'm not good at, if you have a credit card, there's so many different things that credit cards offer you, whether it's.

Points whether it's extended stays and things like that I got to get up on that. Oh I'm up on it you know that. Yeah I know but I'm not. You know because I told you I was like look we got these points and I get um I actually use I have one credit card that is specific for Delta and then I use those points at the end of the year to book my you know for my end of the year trip. Yeah somebody else told me they do that and I was like. It's like a free trip at the end of the year that accumulates throughout the year from all the flights and things that you take it's a like nice hey here's a little treat to myself. Yeah and if you have like a MasterCard or Discover sometimes when you use it they'll actually give you points towards your next trip so if you buy a trip let's say your trip is a thousand dollars they give you back 500 so it's almost like you only pay 500 for the trip I just got to figure it out I don't know that much about it though. And then my Delta card also gives you a free companion pass so if you buy whatever class whatever flight you buy you can get us and domestically you can get another flight for whoever on that same exact itinerary for free once a year.

Which is really great and I also use Expedia and all the points add up So when I book hotels I get points and then at some point I get free hotels because I have so many points Yeah, I got to get up on my point game all right now the NFL has tripped the Miami Dolphins of two draft picks and also spent a suspended and find the owner Stephen Ross after a probe into allegations of tampering and tanking found that his team had impermissible contact with Tom Brady and the agent of former Saints coach Sean Payton so that investigation Determined that they had violated anti tampering rules on three occasions. The NFL did announce this in a news release yesterday They found the team did not intentionally lose games Which is known as tanking but noted that Ross repeatedly suggested that they should prioritize their draft position over winning games During the 2019 season so they have to forfeit their first round pick in the 2023 draft and a third round pick in the 2024 draft Ross is also suspended through October 17th six games into the 2022 season And has been fined 1.5 million dollars now. He did release a statement on the Miami Dolphins Twitter account He said with regards to tampering. I strongly disagree with the conclusions and the punishment However, I will accept the outcome because the most important thing is that there be no distractions for our team as we begin an exciting And winning season I will not allow anything to get in the way of that

They got into a fight in the streets of Hollywood. What is next for them? That relationship is so toxic. We'll talk about it next. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. you

Very limited time offered term supply. Power 105.1. Envy, Angela Yee and Charlamagne the God. This is the rumor report with Angela Yee on the Breakfast Club. Alright, well promoters have canceled Blueface's upcoming boxing match after this footage has emerged of him getting into an altercation with his girlfriend, Krashen Rock. Now they were captured on video, passed it by, actually was filming the whole situation. Fight on the streets of Hollywood this was early this morning yesterday morning and a source within the LAPD confirms that they have started a preliminary investigation into the altercation

Um, so we don't know whether or not they're gonna press charges against each other, but here is, uh, Blueface actually offering Khashoggi money to just leave him. You got a nice little shiner. I can see she's fine. What's up, cuz? What you need? To leave me the f*** alone. F*** yeah, 100,000. You're viral now, cuz. Come on. You wanna beat me up in public and s***. Alright, she said she does not wanna leave him though, and he also... Offers an explanation on why they did get into that altercation. I don't know this **** I don't know her I barely I barely know her. Can you stop filming it? Went through her damn phone. It's ugly. She f*cking CO at the damn jailhouse. Why are you lying? They kinda bailed her out. Can you stop? She's in the CEO of the hotel. How you doing man? Mr. Hughes - yeah, and he got a wife and she probably gonna see this. Yeah, mr. Hughes. Yeah, he wasn't Jeff

48 hours. How you gotta build a bitch out of it? She f*cking CO. Like, how couldn't give you a get out of jail free card? He didn't f*ck you. So how do you know what hotel you was staying at? He was waiting outside your hotel. He called you. You said you enjoyed his company. Wait, in person? Yeah. Now, Khristian has denied being hit by Blueface after this video. She said the only thing he hit is this tire and she posted something in the gym. But it doesn't feel like this is a great relationship to be in when things like this have to happen in public for either one of them. Well neither one of them have done that. No because after that whole altercation they went home and they went... because that video was taken in his bedroom or in their house. Yeah and where he had the black eye and everything saying that she had taken her. So how you lose his boxing gig if he ain't hit him? Well I think maybe it was too controversial after that video has emerged and the company said in light of the videos that have come to light today of Blueface assaulting his partner we cannot allow him to participate.

In a Dazon broadcast fight sports event. - How can they call-- - So they said they need to consider an alternative fight for the car. - But I didn't see the video, but she said he didn't hit her, so how-- - It looks like she initiated getting physical. There's parts where he's like kinda holding her down on-- ground but it's more like restraining her. But there are parts where it looks like he's swinging a little. They both got physical with each other. It was both of them. They both got physical with each other. Yeah. So why, oh she just said it didn't happen because she's trying to protect her. When are adults, I mean they're both adults, but when are like older people gonna you know interfere in this situation because clearly Well his mom and his sister tried and remember she fought the mom and the sister so it's definitely dysfunction and toxic. I would say they should go to therapy but I don't know maybe they should just settle.

Yeah, separate. Yeah, because even the family has gotten involved and... Take that hundred grand. All right. Now, a lot of people want to know when Stephen A. Smith is coming back to First Take. So on social media, he responded August 15th will be the date. So I know people miss him being on there, but he had surgery on his shoulder. He's been just uncomfortable. It's led to an extended vacation. From the program but he will be back on the 15th. Hey man help first. All right now um Chris Rocks everybody still hates Chris. Animated show has been given a straight to series order so that's going to be released via Paramount Plus and Comedy Central.

All right, and that is your rumor reports All right, we got front page news next what we talking about. Yes, and let's talk about finances Okay for the first time ever Americans have surpassed 16 trillion dollars In debt. We'll tell you what's going on. All right, we'll get into that next. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. Morning everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne The Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. Let's get in some front pick. News Just want to tell you in some sports the Dallas Cowboys come in as the number one most valuable sports franchise That's not new. Yeah, it always does. Well just came in again. I guess they did it every year every year Yeah, every year they do it. So they're saying that out of all the 16 NFL teams

They came in number one at a five point seven point six four That's because us Dallas Cowboy fans are loyal. Yeah, y'all are loyal. I was in Dallas and I tried to buy a Yankees hat or a Giants hat and I could not find one. When it comes to baseball, the Yankees is probably the most valuable. Yankees is number one. Number two is the Los Angeles Rams when it comes to football, which was strange. I didn't think the Rams are that. Why? L.A. Yeah, but the Rams are kind of, I don't know. Biggest the Patriots or the Giants? All I know is the Dallas Cowboys fans like myself are loyal through thick and thin. Okay. That's right a lot of pain but guess what we don't waver we not like all everybody else who jumps from team to team every year I'm a Dallas Cowboys and guess we're going to Super Bowl this year the Giants the Dallas Cowboys the page. It's number three two giants

Before in the 49 is number five. Oh, by the way, that's that's Cowboys are number one most valuable sports team franchise period. Not just NFL. Let's be clear on that. Shut up. So I'm gonna throw that out there. That's soccer and everything else. All right, continue. Ye. All right. Well, Nancy Pelosi has met with the president of Taiwan in a historic visit, but that has also escalated tensions with China. Here's what Nancy Pelosi has to say. The story of Taiwan is an inspiration to all freedom-loving people in the United States around the world. Out of a crucible of challenge, you have forged a flourishing democracy, one of the freest in the world. Today, our delegation... ...came to Taiwan to make unequivocally clear we will not abandon our commitment to Taiwan and we will...

Proud of our enduring friendship. Now China immediately condemned Nancy Pelosi's visit. The Chinese Foreign Ministry released a statement after her arrival and they said those who play with fire will perish by it and that the visit represents a serious violation that seriously infringes. Upon China's sovereignty and territorial integrity. Why America always playing with people? Kinda decided they want to take Taiwan back the way Russia is trying to take Ukraine back. What is America going to do? America not right now, okay? Y'all don't have the strength, all right? You need something to eat, some water, you need to work out, you are in no position to be poking these bears. Okay. Alright, well Republicans have also supported this trip. They said we support Speaker of the House of Representative Nancy Pelosi's trip to Taiwan. For decades members of the United States Congress, including previous Speakers of the House, have traveled to Taiwan. This travel is...

With the United States one China palates which we are committed yeah but once again why agitate people like why what's the point America is in no position to want that kind of smoke at this moment. None. Zero. Zilch. Nada. Now speaking of America and what's going on here...

There financially Americans have been piling up credit card debt as they are struggling to keep up with the high cost of living. U.S. household debt has surpassed $16 trillion for the first time ever during the second quarter according to the New York Federal Reserve. Even as borrowing costs are surging they said credit card balances have increased by $46 billion last quarter. So the New York Fed said that the credit card binge at least partly reflects inflation as prices are rising at the fastest pace in more than 40 decades. And researchers also wrote in a blog post the impacts of inflation are apparent in high volumes of borrowing. So not only are credit card balances rising but Americans have also opened 233 million new credit card accounts during the second quarter that's the most since 2008. Wow. Yeah, so that's a lot of debt guys. It's going to be a lot more especially with rates going high and prices going up and inflation happening it's going to be a lot more. People can't afford it. All right. Well that is your front page news. Orange juice was I just bought a thing of orange juice again it was $4.99.

That ish is crazy. All right. All right, when we come back, Kevin Gates will be joining us. He has a new album out right now. He's supposed to come up here a couple of times, but I know the last time one of his, somebody in his camp had COVID and he couldn't get up here. But we're going to talk to him today, so don't move. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Envy, Angela Yee and Charlamagne the God. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne the God. We are The Breakfast Club. We got a special guest in the building. The good brother. brother kevin gates thank you for having me man you look good man thank you Like you look in shape, healthy, you got the gods going around you man. You look good also. Thank you brother. They see you in a long time man, what's the last time Kim had been up here? - Yeah. - Like five years, yeah, like five, six years. - How's everything been, brother? How are you feeling? How are you? - You want me to be honest? - Yes. - Absolutely. - It's been an amazing journey. - Wow. - It's been difficult, but I feel amazing. - What made you want to get into your fitness journey, man? - It go with the spiritual.

- Mind, body, soul, connection. And then I come from a place of doing a lot of drugs and not being self-occurring. Accountable, not holding myself accountable for things and past traumatic experiences that I went through. I was really operating out of fear. Not to just go down it, but the first time I ever spoke about this was in home with the Mike Tyson. I'm not a big step like the violence that I exhibited was because I was Lester when I was young. So that's what made me just operate out of fear. I had that fear of being vulnerable You know, I took all these different styles of martial law You know, weapon reality, these things, but I was operating out of a place of fear because even though I'm hurt, I'm tough. You still got that fear of being vulnerable. It's something that a lot of men don't speak on.

But I had read this book by, I think his name Mr. Jason Wilson. Yeah, hell yeah. Cry Like a Man. Yeah, that's my homie. I love Jason. And he was like, Men are supposed to be nurturers also. They want you to just be tough and don't ever, you know, but I was like, I cry two, three times a day sometimes. Working out, doing yoga and things of that nature because you have to release or you will implode and then I'm real conscious of like my words, like what I say to people. I make sure even if I'm hurting your feelings, I make sure I say it out of a place of love. I was gonna ask was that book got you to open? Oh, did you see? Oh, no, sir. No, no, no. No. You want me to be honest? Absolutely honest. I don't think you know any other way to be. I don't want to trigger. I don't want to trigger nobody. No, I don't. Odyssey house. We all know when I was 17. - I believe I shot myself in the head. I tried to commit suicide, still had a bullet in my head. And then 20.

20 I believe I was gonna push my **** out again. Yeah, I saw you say that on big fat. I got off Instagram. I did all of that. I got disconnected. My Instagram got off social media and I was by myself and just through the course. Events like I don't want to talk about it could to trigger nobody but absolutely I was gonna kill myself I wasn't happy what got you out of it. What made you stop? Once I got off Instagram, I was making a lot of comparisons because I put in so much work to be an amazing artist, but you never Celebrate it properly, you know, especially when you a man and I'm not no alpha male advocate or no I ain't with all that dumb ass sh*t. I believe it take balance You know like I ain't with that, if a woman gonna do what I say, I ain't with that silly ass s***. This ain't no toxic masculinity. Sacred masculine divine feminine. You talking about the holy divine feminine and sacred masculinity? That's God. That's right. - What you talking about, man? - Whoa, you at two. So anyway, just doing.

Course of events, me getting off Instagram, stop making comparisons, 'cause comparisons is the killer of all joy. People show they highlight rims, DJ Envy pulling up in Ferraris. But his home life might be straight bullsh*t, but he makin' it look good. And it's like... You compare your real life and all the problems you got to somebody's highlight reel and that s**t caused depression Got off social media for like a year and a half and I just started living and I saw that man the streets love me everywhere I go people love me and I had to realize Hold on man, I gotta reaffirm some things with myself. Man, I want you, I'm gonna recommend this book to you. I wanna show it to you. Hey, I got a question. If I was to bring the copy of your book up here, would you sign it for me? Of course, Kevin. This is what you need to read. Ego is the enemy. Trust me. I carry it with me. Trust me. - Word. - I know, word. - I love how you talk about it though, and the reason that, you know, it might be triggering to some, but for some it helps.

I did I was which I was my second away from shooting myself too and and Because I didn't think I was worthy. That's right. Of my house, of my wife, of my kids, of my family. We only feel as good as what we could do for somebody. But what helped me is when I spoke about it. And I saw so many other people were in that same position. Man, they got me and walked up to me every day and cried. Every day if I'm in the gym, man, thank you for being so transparent Like don't nobody talk about this. I'm talking about bodybuilder super big and I could tell that You doing this out of frustration. So I changed the way that I even approached the gym now. When I go, I go to make myself feel good. I go to put positive energy in my body. I did yoga before I came up here. I gotta open myself up and feel positive. I got to do it. Go to therapy once a week. I've been doing it for like six years, but therapy is not everybody's form of healing. So what else do you do to like, what'd you do on your healing journey? I had to get by myself. Okay. And one of the biggest things I do, I keep self-invitation.

Or I write down the things that I'm feeling, whatever it is, and I go back and answer them questions. Talk to myself. I used to think I was weird for doing it, then I read that all geniuses talk to themselves. I'm in tune with myself. I can be alone. Is it difficult? It is. That's like when they got this yoga pose called the pigeon pose. I never knew nothing about no emotional detoxing. What are you no walking around talking about, man? You need emotional detoxing. We got taught that. - That's real. - I was doing a pigeon pose just to open my hips up more. It is going to give you more strength in the gym, but I'm looking at it for the strength aspect and it was so healing because I started crying right there. Uncontrollably. She put her hands on my back. She say a lot of what. - What you feeling right now is not your own. It's psychic debris. You're having an emotional detox right now. She is breathing to the poles. A lot of the anger and frustration and emotions are all but in the gut and in the hips. I never knew this, so I emotionally.

The detox before I came up here because I don't want to project even with my son He told me something one day and I may what is you alone? Now him bad, just unchecked aggression. If I'm not in tune with myself, if I'm not happy, I can't make my children happy. I can't be the man I'm supposed to be for my family. - That's real. What got you into yoga? - I got into it in prison on my last bid. It was a blessing. But the first, when I was like... With the opportunity to do yoga, I'm like, man, I'm not about to do that. You go in and bend over. I ain't got time to be doing it. You know, I was just you know, you judge it because you don't understand. Correct. My first class. Maybe two minutes into it I had to run to the bathroom and just everything got my body he said you're releasing everything that's Not there's no longer serving your higher self. So I just thought experimenting with yoga and G and I noticed I'm like, this curt my appetite. You focusing on your breath, you focusing on yourself.

This person may be able to stretch way better than you, but guess what? Everybody's on their own individual journey. So it kind of teach you to not compare and it also teach-- You to even though situations may get rough or tense you just breathe through it and work through it and the reward I've been in a journey. I ain't trying to get to no destination. I'm I'm loving a journey right now And what you said is key though. You said here like there's no destination to healing. It's a - It's a constant journey, it's not linear at all. - I'm in love with the journey, like all my friends. At first they was like, There you go with this whole health ass s***. But they starting to get in tune. I was going, I got your friends and your family and your queen. Like, Cause your journey has changed. When it first started, it was a lot of resistance. This alien of people, I'm exhibiting alien behavior. It's unknown, it's foreign. And I didn't know what I was doing, but I had to follow my heart. Because I never wanted to sit and watch tv and say you know what what if I never would attract that'll be

My biggest regret, I had everything taken from me in 2016. I was innocent, over a lie, nominated for a Grammys, all of that. But it was beautiful because this time I'm even helping more people, but I harbored a lot of resentment toward that. Mm-hmm. I'm like, Man, why I keep getting looked over? I do nothing but great s***. But then when somebody else emulate what I do, the world slap them on ass and applaud like, why don't nobody notice me? my time yet. I wasn't ready to receive these blessings. These blessings wasn't denied. They was just delayed. So now I'm receiving my blessings. More with Kevin Gates when we come back. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. Morning everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne the God. We are The Breakfast Club. We're still kicking it with Kevin Gates. Now I wanted to ask you. We had a big discussion about this when you said it on the radio, right?

When you were talking about Miss B, you talk about another man's wife. Yeah, what I see. That's one of the most beautiful women in the world. I can't be a fan. I'm sitting in a trap out round the monsters just looking at TV just, Man, I swear to God. When I said that everybody feel like that they just scared to say it. I ain't scared to say it. What is respect for another man's wife? I said respectfully.

I'm living your dreams every night. Yeah, I'm punching her living your dreams. What? I don't want nothing that nobody else want. I get it. That's like if Angela, you, or my lady. I'm not trying, I'm only being illustrative, if that's a word. Yeah, that's fine. If you my lady, and I know all y'all jist. Y'all want my woman. I'm about to walk up and give you a big hug and grip that ass in front of me. Yeah, I don't care. But somebody that's not on your same plane feels saying, same playing field saying stick my tongue all in your a** and squirt a little I do all that. I do all that to my wife. Who's him? So you wouldn't feel a way if another man said that about your wife? I wouldn't give a f***.

I don't care about what nobody think about me or what nobody say. And you still would have the same respect for that individual. Yeah, me. We can still speak to the same way, we can still do a song with each other, we still good. I mean if you speak to me, I'll speak to you. You know, me and Greet Men, I don't know what you got going on today. See, y'all invited me here, I'm not gonna go nowhere I'm not invited. That's real. So if somebody invite me somewhere, yeah, I'm a, you know, I'm a gangster than a gentleman. How you doing, beloved? You know, I'ma greet you humble.

See me and green mean, you know, you said some other to that on a song shoot my shot. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. I got to bring this up. They butter me up with all of the positivity. You know, so you know, most guys would be intimidated by a situation like this. Right. What kind of situation? Shoot my shot. You said that I don't remember because you. Yes, I'm the type of no recollection of that. Because I mentioned it just because we did on lip service, we had AJ Johnson on and she was talking about how she was with two guys and it turned into this whole thing where people were. Condemning her for it and she had to actually come back on to defend herself about a situation that she had but she was like look I you know I don't mind I would actually like to f*ck a girl

...the guy like, you know, like a threesome and like my homie, you know, just be able to do that and I won't look at her no differently. You can't do that with no anybody. You gotta have somebody that's gonna respect that woman like you respect that woman. Right. Even the way that we issued to her. Like I like it's a lot of women that deadlift. Up that but they have a fear of being judged. I'm like, I ain't gonna care if the way you say, you say punch d*** and issue d***. I'm using both of those. Oh God. Listen, listen with d*** to that. Oh God. Listen with some d***. No, go ahead, go ahead. Cause I feel like that's a taboo thing and people look at that. They'll say like, oh she got a train ran on her or that happened. What's the question? Okay, when you go, see you listen. And that people that don't even know who they are, they not even comfortable with their sexuality. You don't even know who you are. You don't even know what you like. How can I have somebody that don't know what they like telling me what's wrong and what's right for me? Mm-hmm. I talk to women. I'm talking about up and Rank having businesses and everything and they just Kevin I just love the way you just slept me out they loved it.

I just feel free when I'm with you. No judgment. Yeah, baby. No judgment. People go through. How you think I. Not this good because practice don't make you perfect practice only makes you better If a woman had been with a lot of people, you know what you got field credentials I'm not I'm not like Charlamagne two inches longer than my we both still hitting that Stomach. If a woman say I'm not in her stomach, she hating on me. I want to know what do you say no to in the bedroom? Because I feel like there's no holds barred. He said, you're like, I ain't doing that. That somebody's asked you to do. Don't nobody asked me to do nothing cause I'm such a pleaser. A woman better know when you aiming to please her. A woman better know if you doing this selfishly. A woman better know if you doing this with gratitude. And guess what? I'm thankful for you right now because

It's a whole blessing. - That's real. - I pray and everything before I have sex. This is spiritual. My wouldn't get hard if it wasn't without the permission of the creator. Before I do this I'm gonna make it sacred because guess who know about it? Businesses between those who make it. That's right. You know, you got the song Thinkin' With My D*** with Juicy J. How does a man not think with his d***? That glow that you... Say you see in that orator that prisons that you feel when I walk in the room, a lot of People are going to talk against this, but this comes from sem*n retention and discipline. Mm-hmm. Wake up in the morning, they call it morning wood. You know, you could choose to, it's a choice. You could choose to put a sock on your and beat it and shoot it. Your precious life force in a in a sock or you could choose to get up and put that energy into your workout you could take your Sexual cravings and translate that energy into something else and it shows and something else that I've noticed since I've been on this journey I've been practicing about maybe three and a half years.

Everybody that meet me now say man your energy is so different now cuz I'm translating it even when I'm around women They tell me you know what? Talk about a lot of sexual related topics in your songs. I say, you know how I. Because I abstained and I put my cravings into the music and when I catch you guess what I'm not gonna play with you But I don't get creepy energy from you because I don't look at women objectively. Have you ever met your match in the bedroom? I met somebody really close. The reason I say she really really close, oh God don't kill me. She got acne in her face. I know this gonna sound crazy. I know this gonna sound crazy. A lot of women with acne in their face got good p***. Because they hormones, they hormones are so imbalanced that it caused them to have congestion. So they not releasing properly. See one I start really just caught in I really put it on her her face start cleaning up because a lot of time we break out You notice we have

Acne developed due to what? Stress and things of that nature. I'm not saying all women with acne got this. That's where they get eczema, all, anything with the skin, yeah. But a lot of the things that go on with us are really internally. I'm not just saying it for that, but she up there. She in my top three. That's good man, because there's a lot of women out there with acne and they got insecurities because of the acne, but you just No, i'm so serious. I'm so serious like like a woman with a little bit of congestion, let acne in her face Them be the ones now you know what i wanted to ask you about your relationship with drica because there's been a lot of speculation online so how is everything man let them speculate i don't answer no i don't i don't i don't do that with the internet let them say what they want to say about me I don't care. Because then you see her, she still know all the lyrics to all the songs on the album. She posting that. It look like she love me. Yeah. That's it like what else it why does it matter people be I just want to know I just know listen you living by casually through somebody else

Looking at my life for your source of entertainment. For that situation, because y'all were so entwined with each other.

We still in twain. We still in twain. People don't see something they always say, Why? What happened? You know people are nosy. They'll see you with somebody else and they'll be like, Oh he's doing this and doing that. Did you see me nailing somebody else or you just seen me with somebody else? No, no. You ain't seen me pin that to a f*ck. You seen me punching that dick in somebody else. It's on me issuing dick in somebody else. There he go. I can't even. You're not asking me. But I'm just saying it's a true statement like Let's go off statistics. I'm going to say all of the women I done ran across with that little acne in they face. Then been pressure. Real pressure. And they had an insecurity about their acne. Girl come on leak your little bumps. You better stop playing with me. Alright well keep it locked. We got more with Kevin Gates when we come back. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. Good morning everybody. It's D.J. Envy. Angela Yee. Charlamagne the guy. We are the Breakfast Club. We're still kicking it with Kevin Gates. Charlamagne. What has impacted your life more? Islam or hip hop?

I'll tell you something to be honest. And I mean, it's with all due respect, Hurt me the most is my own people like it's a lot of Muslims that love me But it's also a lot of Muslims that judge me. You can't have tattoos. That's haram this It's that haram it means forbidden. You can't do this and this. Man, you know who helped me? Back on my feet since my last tour, it been Jews and transgenders. Coffee deals and all of this. We doing all these investments. This lady, she a transgender. She say, Baby, you can use my warehouse if you want to. Put all your merch in there. Just gave me the warehouse man the words you say they speak to my spirit. I love who I love who you are love what you stand for. It be the people that the world says the most worst people the people on earth.

Been the people that helped me and it's my own people that judge me and kick me when I'm down and I always got something negative to say about me always in my business keep my name and mess like like then they say black lives matter and get mad when I don't support it who they matter to we kill each other all day I told God that man, I hate to say it, I mean this is what I do respect. Hey look, if I gotta come back a n***a, I'll be back. Just wait till something else come available, big dog. I don't even wanna be no n***a. Really? Everybody wanna be a n***a till it's time to be one. But you a black god, though. What the white man told us we were. Nah, n***a man, king. That's what they say. That's why you hear me say B-O-N. Big ol' n***a. King we was taught wrong. I'm a big old there's nothing I can't go through and and a Captain and Justin become great. Oh, but that's what most of my problems don't come from other people come from. That's who judge me, that's who kick me when I'm down. - But that's also who supports you too. - I can't say it's just that support me.

You know what it is that support me? Real people. I don't look at that like that. I look at it as real people and fake people. And you never know who your blessing gonna come through so you can't judge. That's true. Don't you believe there's a white supremacist system that put us in this position to even be the way we are to each other sometimes? They say that but I ain't s*** it. I got a good heart. I try to help s*** us. I get s***ed on. But you're healing though. There's a bunch of brothers and sisters that support you and help you come around. Yeah, real people. It's real people and fake people. But the people that really kick me when I'm down be the people that look like me, the people that judge me. You the people that look like me. - That's why I think God using you as a vessel now to help people heal. - I hope somebody hear this and realize that man, look, hey. I can't do no right. I started getting ridiculed, talked about, kicked in my ass for nothing. I ain't trying to admit this type of emotion, but man, this sh*t hurt. Nah, I feel you. This sh*t hurt on me. I feel you. I ain't even make contact with that girl in Florida. You got to understand that lied on me.

And I love you cuz maybe God use you for me to go through this transition I wouldn't be who I am now. So I attached that positive energy to it But I had hovered a lot of resentment from that. They all took me from my children. Over a $400 fine. Y'all gave me six months for that. It's time for me to come home. Illinois say you got a warrant. What you know about having your heart broke like that? Chicago Jail. You know I'm doing my bid, milling my bid. Your brother just got murdered. What you know about having your heart broke like that? I can keep going but like... I could keep going. I was destroyed on the inside, man. This sh*t hurt. So of course I get emotional just thinking about it. Like it's like I can't do no right. You'd be surprised how many people you're helping right now. That's right. Having this conversation. That's what having this conversation is. Yeah, like, I mean... Living the way you living. I mean, I look at the... Malcolm X and all the s**t that he stood for and all that s**t, nah, I identify with him, I do. And I was like, yeah, you know, went to jail. We're going to riot in this bitch.

... us cold food. I'm about to stand with you. Come on, let's go. When they come in this bitch, let's go. You know what the ... did? When they came in there with them guns and sh*t, sh*t just went and got in they wreck. I'm out there fighting by myself, do you know what the warden told me? He said I respect you. I'll bet you your man will start sticking by yourself. I can't win. I can't win. - What Minister Fragg gonna say one time? Minister Fragg gonna say, You have to love black people more than they hate themselves. I love God and I love my family and I love people that love me. I'm not walking out here, hey I'm gonna be honest with you. People I don't like, I don't wish no good on them. I hope you drive down the street and get hit by a car and die. This is why healing is uh... Like I like I don't wish good for... Not linear. Healing is linear. I don't like I don't wish like I'm gonna be honest. Don't you sound like me? I don't wish good like I be hearing people say that man. I wish the best for you. I'm gonna say I wish you the best cuz I'm not gonna put no negative energy But I don't wish no good for you I don't give a f*ck.

This is why healing isn't a task, it's a practice. It is, but it's the same way. It's a journey. I just don't wish no harm on anybody. I just mind my business. Man, that sh*t sound cool. That sh*t sound cool. I'm gonna tell the truth though. Hey, if you hurt me or f*ck over me, man, I wish something bad happened to you. That's why you punched that wrestler so hard? - Come in. - They were like, that's not what we rehearsed. - I'm just asking though. - No, I know, I know. - No. - I'm on the same. - Like the world. - I think that. - The world wanna be politically correct. I'm not trying to be politically correct. - I always feel like the worst thing you could do is be successful. - They said my scheme would not do that. I'll be having those feelings but then I just- No, I think just be successful and cut somebody off so that they have no access to you and I think that's the word. Why would I throw away all of this behind a peon, a peasant mindset? If you did something ******* to them relations to me, that just show me where your mindset is that you a peasant. But I ain't wishing the best for you. I don't care what the **** you do.

Happen to you yeah now i'm not wishing the best but i'm just you just said you know i did and i said i would cut off access to you but you couldn't i would be successful i don't wish the best i might say that hey stay blessed boy you die today i ain't gonna say the boy you died today but hey listen i'm gonna say what everybody scared to say i'm not with that politically correct but all of that you knew intro was gonna be how you had to start the album off because i see all of that in the intro yeah like that when i make music that's therapy for me i'm releasing All of these emotions and things of that nature and it's healing for people to hear that. Oh, man I'm going through the same thing. He going through this how he did with it with fitness He did what I take. I could go smoke weed, but I love what Enki Johnson say. He said a lot of these brothers when s*** get difficult they just go blow weed. They ain't got nothing invested.

See when you invest in something and you hustle and you work for something you got a different type of attachment to it. You gonna have a cold day in hell for somebody to try to take this from you. We live by this, we die by this. We don't surrender, we don't retreat. Every man must search his own soul. I listen to that quote every morning. Every man must search his own soul. And I gotta just tell the truth. I don't feel like a lot of these people feel. Are they scared to say that's how they feel? I don't care

- What you think about me, I don't care. I'm happy. - The moral of this interview is healing isn't a task, it's a push. - Now see, he trying to do all that. - Healing isn't linear. - Put the disclaimer, put the disclaimer. - Let's say healing is a journey, not a destination. - That's right, that's right. - Hey, you really gonna autograph my book? You just said that 'cause the camera's-- - No, I got you, man. I appreciate what you have been doing. - Can I have an autographed cap up 'cause I ain't bring my book. - Done, I'll give it the crush bar, I don't have none up here. But I appreciate what you out here doing, Kev, I do. I really do 'cause people need to hear from me. - Talk about you don't smell that? That was a learning experience. - Oh, that wasn't donkey today though. - Oh, all right. - That was funny. I thought that should have been a challenge. I wanted people to do it. - You want me to eat this? - You want me to eat this? You want me to eat this? - It's Kevin Gates. It's the breakfast, come on. - Oh my God, thank y'all, I love y'all. Kojani made my dress that cheap ass Bendix looks up mess What's wrong with you man? What's wrong with you? I saw what you posted on Instagram last night in your IG story. What'd I post?

Coming from my head. I was like, damn. Like, who's coming for you? Who's coming? Coming for his head. Oh, I'm talking to car show. I'm talking about traded truth and I didn't see it. What did you think? You know what? I thought I Just wondering why you solicited listening it like that on your IG story. I hate you like you don't have a son pause Man, pause, pause, pause. I'm pausing, nothing. You posted it. Let's get to the rules. Let's hope Beyoncé.

All right, well not only has Beyonce removed the word spaz from her song Heated, but she also has removed the usage of that milkshake interpolation from Kelis from her song Energy after Kelis had some issues saying that it was disrespectful and she didn't like the way that she wasn't notified about this. She said it's not a collab, it's theft. I'm so confused now. Yeah, I didn't hear it. So now it's gone. That's what I'm confused about. It's off the song now. Tidal and Apple have appeared to remove that interpolation of milkshake. At the tail end of energy and nobody has commented on it and and the credits by her to write this today see that's what I'm confused about because Maybe I need to pay more attention, but I thought Khaleed was upset that she didn't get credited. So if she got credited in the first place, what was the problem?

If she was credited on the song, what was the problem? - So she got credited. - That's what I found out yesterday. They said she removed the credit from the song. Well, yeah, full credits revealed the song in question was Milkshake with Pharrell and Chad Hugo credited on the track. I thought they said Khaleed was credited too. I thought they said they removed her credit yesterday. I don't know. I'm just telling you what it says. I thought they said they removed the sample and credit. But why would you want to take the sample off? Because you get paid off for that, right? Every time that record gets played, you get PC. Well, we don't know who owns whatever publishing. Oh, that's true. So we don't know who actually gets paid for it. Smolnak, right. You're right. Yeah, so interpolation is also different than sampling. That's when they alter the sound. Sampling takes the song directly. No changes. So an interpolation is a little bit different. So that was an interpolation. I wanted to make Khaleed's screams go up because I'm sure a lot of people went out there and searched Khaleed's because Khaleed's...

Got a lot of fans out there, bro. - She does. - See, because Khaleed said in her Instagram video, publishing was stolen, people were-- ...out of rights, it happens all the time, especially back then, so it's not about me being mad about Beyonce. And she said, Farrell knows better, this is a direct hit at me and he does this stuff all the time. Okay now another person when certain things happen like when the the word spaz was removed from Beyonce's song Monica Lewinsky actually posted after that and she wants that lyric taken Out of the song partition he Monica Lewinsky doll on my gown that was five years ago She said um while we're at it hashtag partition how many artists have things about Monica Lewinsky. You know how many comedians have made Monica Lewinsky jokes? How many TV shows have referenced that? Like why? She talking to Beyonce. That's what the Beyhive said, Monica girl be realistic. Why are you only talking about Beyonce? There were plenty of other artists.

What if Beyonce would have tweeted out suck my D Monica Lewinsky all on my dress goodness gracious all right so all of that drama but you know the album is A lot of great reviews too so at the same time there's a lot going on. Alright, Irv Gotti is on Drink Champ's Ja Rule and in the teaser apparently he talks about finding out about Ashanti dating Nelly. I could get past you wanting to be with Nelly. - Sounds like you didn't get past that. I'm just being honest. - Listen, listen, you wanna hear how I found out? Was at home, uh-huh, there wasn't no Twitter or Instagram back there that home listen to this. This is God wanted me to find Was that home? NBA package, I like watching sports. Oh my god, what's this commotion going on in the stadium?

Ah, man, 4 After the Hour, I want to give donkey today to the 11 Republicans who voted against the PACT Act. I'll tell you all about it. 4 After the Hour. All right. We'll get to that next. Breakfast Club, your mornings will never be the same. Right now everyone can enter Mattress Firms unjunkier sleep sweepstakes for the chance to win a dream bedroom valued up to $2,500 plus $1,000 cash.

Yes, you are a donkey. Haha! ...on that police killing of a black man. Now the new developments in the deadly spa shooting rampage. Uh, I guess it was a really bad day for him and this is what he did. And so we are in a state of emergency. Okay, white supremacist violence is and always has been the number one threat to our society. But I'm also very proud that my wife is white. The Breakfast Club, bitches! I mean, please tell me why was I your donkey of the day? Well, donkey of the day for Wednesday, August 3rd, goes to the 11 Republicans who voted against the PAC Act. What is the PAC Act? Well, it would boost health care for veterans exposed to toxins during war. Care funding and access for military veterans. Can we name all 11 Republican senators who voted Tuesday against our veterans? Mitt Romney of Utah, Rand Paul of Kentucky, Mike Crapo of Idaho, James Linkford of Oklahoma, Mike Lee of Utah, Cynthia Lewis

Miss of Wyoming James Rish of Idaho Richard Shelby of Alabama Pat Toomey of Pennsylvania Tommy Tuberville of Alabama and Tom Tillis of North Carolina all 11 senators all block the bill that would, among other things, expand healthcare for members of the military diagnosed with rare cancers as a result of their service. If you've been listening to Your uncle Charlotte, your brother Leonard on this radio for years, and you know without a shadow of a doubt how I feel about veterans. Okay, military veterans deserve it all. Alright, true American patriots who went out and fought for this country should never have to worry about anything ever again, okay, in this country. Alright? At the very least, this country should take care of that ba- Needs. There's not too many things that piss me off more than seeing homeless military veterans begging for change in these American streets. I hate it. We paying taxes, military veterans should have free housing, free health insurance and the best health insurance and they should be getting some type of stipend every month so they can pay their bills, alright, and keep their refrigerators.

Well that should be the bare minimum for how military veterans are rewarding this country. But those 11 republicans I just named voted against the bill, citing concerns over costs. This is so nuts to me because just last month The house passed the 840 billion dollar military spending bill and not once did I hear someone say How we gonna pay for it? I want that I see anyone concerned over the cost now. It's not all bad news because even though these 11 Republicans did vote against the PAC Act, the bill, you know, did pass yesterday. Okay. It was approved in the Senate by a vote of 86 to 11. All right. But a week after 41 Republicans elected to stall it because of what I told you for cost okay america is literally that dude you see out wearing all Design him you know driving the luxury car balling out on instagram but he owe you money okay

And when you ask for your money, they ain't got it. All right. Even worse, America is the friend that has no problem spending full price on other people's products. But when you say a person's friends, said person's family are selling something, they want it for free or a discount. When it's you, they start complaining about the price. Disgusting. Okay. Now, I am glad this bill passed and the veterans will... Get what they earned and deserve. But what changed all of these Republicans mind? I'm not talking about the 11 getting donkey today. Today I'm talking about the rest of them. Well, I'll tell you what changed their minds. Good old fashioned shame. Okay. That's all good old fashioned shame. Shame works. Sometimes. Alright, y'all ain't seen Envy with Beijing in his beard in a while. You know why? Because I shame him about it all the time. That's not true. I never had Beijing. Alright? Okay. It's just for me. That's right, G. It's just for me. Alright, but good old fashioned shame. You know where that good old fashioned shame came from?

Um, Jon Stewart. All right. The legend, one of the greatest and strongest voices I have personally ever witnessed in my lifetime led to charge with shame when 41 Republicans elected to stall the final passage of this measure, uh, Jon Stewart touring the all-A asses. All right. Pat Toomey. He wasn't shamed enough to, uh, you know, change his vote, but Pat Toomey, Ted

The light that John Stewart shined on this bill last week no doubt Changed the minds of these fake patriots who claim to care about this country who claim to put America first But yet they will vote against things that will actually help the people who have put their lives on the line for this country and guess What when people do things like that they deserve to be shamed now We can't play John Stewart's whole ten minute speech But uh I do want to play some of it because he summed it up quite simple and plain let's listen Ain't this a bitch America's heroes fought in our wars outside sweating their asses off with oxygen Battling all kinds of ailments. Well these motherf*cker sit in the air conditioning Walled off from any of it. They don't have to hear it They don't have to see it. They don't have to Understand that these are human beings. Do you get it yet? Do we see that these are you these aren't heroes these are men and women mothers and fathers sisters and brothers This is an embarrassment to the Senate to the country to the founders and all that they profess to hold dear And if this is America first

Then America is f*cked. If this is America first then America is f*cked. America been f*cked if you ask me but I'm a black man from the south so my perspective is different but it's virtually the same. Okay, America does not take care of its own. It simply doesn't. America does not take care of any of the real patriots in this country. The people who actually believe and live the liberty, freedom and justice for all. Creed. The real patriots who simply want America to keep his promises. They get treated the worst in this country. Military veterans who actually fought for this country get discarded, forgotten about. Easy to do that to them unless you raise holy hell about it like Jon Stewart did. People into doing the right thing because whether you're black or white gay or straight Muslim or Christian we as American citizens all have friends and family who are military veterans so that's the An issue that we can hear and say that's f-ed up they did that. Alright you gonna block funding to help people who fought for it?

This country and you 11 Republicans who getting donkey today you really gonna try to hold hostage this legislation that will help those veterans Because you oppose the inflation reduction act that that's what this is all about. They opposed the inflation And reduction act which includes money to combat climate change and lower health care costs that's why they all voted against helping the veterans uh in the first place all right stop using people's problems as chess pieces for your silly political pissing Alright folks is out here in need and they can't get those needs met because y'all busy measuring each other's little teeny weeny penises. Alright? We the people. Yeah right how? When you never ever put those people over your politics. Please give those 11 Republicans who voted against the PAC Act the biggest hee haw. *Pitiful I'm glad it passed though those veterans deserve it all. And why you got a little twinkle in your eye when I said teeny weeny. You said something very interesting. I did.

It's your rule. What? I'm talking about the Beijing. I don't use Beijing. What are you talking about Beijing? See? You use just for men. We know this, bruh. You don't want any more though because I shamed you out of it. I still use it, I just different color. Ah, you just admitted you used it. He did say he used it, he always said he used it. He even told us what number, right? He don't listen when I talk. You just said you don't use Beijing! I don't use Beijing. What is it then? I'm not telling you. Now if I said- He was denying dying his beard all together like we don't have eyes! No, he was just saying that he doesn't use Beijing. Now if I said I'd measure my penis, you would be all into that, wouldn't you? I got a ruler right here. See? What's wrong with you, man? Go to human resources today. And I'll tell her all the day. You just told me, you just invited me.

Have a good time. Everybody heard you millions of people heard you. Up next is Aski. Ain't no up next Aski, up next is the Measuring Contest. 585-1051, Aski is next. If you need relationship advice or any type of advice. He ain't that fun. - 855-105-1. - Is anyone uncomfortable? Yes, I'm uncomfortable! - Yeah, you are uncomfortable. - 855-105-1. Ask Me is next. - What the f*ck are you looking for? - Measure and take. - Do you need to let your feet in the fight? - Me. - You better not follow me to the bathroom. I'm gonna do it in front of everybody. You better not follow me. It's the Breakfast Club, good morning. You here. The Breakfast Club.

Aski hello, who's this? Michael what's your question for you easy? So I want to actually um, we might be able to get it for five years now All the north, right, but I think right now i'm ready to make that um commitment And I said, you know to marry me and stuff like that. But i'm you know, she's going to say she's not ready She's not ready, you know, but we have a we have a child together. So i'm china, you know Got a family, you know, you know, let me find my family. So she says she's not ready, you know, giving me hints like, you know, I shouldn't do what she proposed and stuff like that, but I want to make the next step, you know, so I was wondering what should I do? Well, she's telling you that she doesn't want you to propose and she's not ready to get married. So you said off and on. For five years? Yeah, well, you know we've been you know at any relationship, you know, you you guys you know, we just have upside down

What are the offs because of? Like, tell me the reasons why you guys have been off at times. Um, I guess trust issues. You know, she don't trust me. I don't trust her and stuff like that. But for the past, like, year, we've been in a very good place. You know, I think we finally found each other back again. Mm-hmm, okay. Where did those trusted shoes come from? What happened? Uh, I would say that, you know, I did stuff, she did stuff, and, you know, it's always a playing game, you know? You did this to me, I did this to you, and stuff like that. And that still goes on, y'all still blame each other for things and you still have trust issues. Well, as of right now, we're fine. But it does affect you. I think she lives in the past a lot, like a lot of stuff. Like, you know, she always reminds us, brings it up and, you know, shows, you know, living stuff like that for three, four years ago. Hmm, okay, I do feel like you guys if she's telling you she's not ready for that y'all need to work on those things before you make a decision to get married

You guys do have a family and you are together, right? So that's not the issue. You want to go and take that next step and you... You have to show her that you're committed to do the work in order to make that happen. And so I feel like, you know, off and on for five years, if she's not ready, that's fair for her to be honest and tell you that. And she's still, you guys are still working on your relationship. I think you can pressure her at this point in time, but what you can do is ask her, what are the necessary steps that you need to take in order to be ready so that... I can make sure that we're working towards that goal. Because if you guys are in agreeance that we're working towards the goal of us getting married at some point, then how do we Go about that? Does that mean that we have to, you know, sit down, go to couples counseling, that we are more comfortable in being able to move forward, that we can get past some of these issues of things that I've done, things that she's done, take accountability and responsibility for those things.

You know it's a huge deal and if she still is not 100% there then figure out what needs to happen. For her to be 100% there. I agree, but you know, I wanted to make a quick mention. They know what, you know, forget about it. It's been five years and I'm trying to, yeah. That you can tell somebody to call it quits but I feel like you do have to put in the work. All right, thank you. All right, you're welcome. Alright, ask ye 800-585-1051 if you need relationship advice or any type of advice you can call ye now. Now we got rumors on the way? Wendy Williams got married, according to Hollywood Unlocked. That did happen. And the team has been asked to keep her entire family away. This is the Breakfast Club, good morning. The Breakfast Club. It's a random song on a Wednesday? Radio doesn't...

- Play random songs. That's the whole point of radio at this point. - This is just random. - Cause think about how intentional people are with their music now. They have their own playlist that they curate. You can go online and pick whatever song you want on demand. So technically, when you turn the radio on, you're just listening to a bunch of random records in this era. Yes. Alright. Feel like they just took this weekend song out of nowhere. And an area where you can curate your own playlist. You don't have to listen to random music if you don't want to. I'm just saying. Alright, well let's get to the rumors. Let's go.

This is the rumor report with Angela Yee. On Breakfast Club. Well, Jason Lee got the tea. It looks like Wendy Williams has gotten married. She actually called him according to Hollywood Unlocked. And it looks like she says that, you know, she doesn't share full details until she's unless she's sitting in front of a camera with an audience. But she said she recently tied the knot. Her new man's name is Henry. He's an NYPD officer. and she said she was thrilled to finally break the news. About her husband to a good friend that good friend is Jason Lee. Yeah I think you should say allegedly because I highly doubt that story is true. You think Jason Lee lied? He really is. I'm not saying Wendy didn't say that to him, but I'm just saying I highly doubt that story is true. Okay. I mean we just saw her passed out in the window over Louis Vuitton store. She was napping.

- She's napping in the window to play over Louis Vuitton store. - Well she also did admit that she's still dealing with financial stress. She said her Amex has stopped working, but William Selby and her other close friend have been helping her maintain access to one of her accounts. She said she's trying to stay positive even while still dealing with family drama, and she has asked her entire team to keep her family away from her with the exception of her son, Kevin Hunter Jr. So don't know how to it, but that's what she told Jason Lee. Alright, now Kanye West is not happy about Yeezy Day. You know Yeezy Day is a brand-created holiday for those Yeezys that they observe annually on August 2nd. That was yesterday. Now in a direct message to the Complex Instagram account, Kanye shared his disapproval by saying that Adidas made up the Yeezy Day idea without my approval, then went and brought back older styles without my approval, picked colors and named them without my approval, went and hired people that worked for me without my approval, stole my colorways without my approval - you see where this is going - stole my styles and material approaches without my approval, went and hired a GM of Yeezy without my approval. So all these things without his approval. He said even though they did a Balenciaga collab, they completely slowed down production on the shoes me and Demna developed for Gap by trying to bully Gap even though my contract

I can do casual shoes, which I was doing when I did fashion shows So he said Yeezy is 68% of Adidas online sales God step in how could they do that? I thought you know Kanye had full creative control Yeah, he must not I always thought he had full creative control do that without full creative can you just can't do I thought he had full creative control. was rock solid. Maybe it has to do with just the creative part of designing the sneakers.

And approved it. - I thought he had it for branding and marketing too. - You can't just hire a GM. - I don't know what is in his contract, but apparently that's what he's saying has happened. So we'll see how much longer this partnership goes on. But Yeezy Day did first take place in 2019 and the brand has saved some of its most anticipated Yeezy drops for that particular event. So I know somebody called me yesterday and said they had, I guess on Adidas you can like sign up so that you can get the drop in your size and she was excited 'cause she actually was able to get a pair. - Yeah, a friend of mine did too. - Oh, got a pair also? - Yeah, it was the same thing. She was very excited about Yeezy Day and got a couple of pair actually. - All right, now Omarion is on the cover of Hello Beautiful and he talked about the public having a lack of respect for real artistry. He said, I always tell people that the difference from when I started and now is that people feel because it's so easy to be famous on social media, they don't actually have respect for people that have been cultivating their art and skills like in basketball or any other sports where there's actual ranks. One day people love you and then the next people hate you. One day he's the greatest performer and the next day it's like, oh, he can't sing. Like 22 years of work just goes away. So to be able to continue to focus on the purpose and the intent of why I'm even here and the legacy I'm creating has kept my joy intact. And he also said, I think a lot of people get the concept and idea of unbothered misconstrued because sometimes people think that being unbothered is not acknowledging certain things. being unbothered is maintaining your

emotional intelligence and power and realizing that this person might be doing this intentionally. So do I react or do I respond and I'm very much so a thoughtful person. So that is him on the cover. So a lot of girls weighing in on this cover as well. All right, I'm Angela Yee and that is your Rumor Reports. What you got for me? I don't have nothing for you.
