10 Things We Learned from Fredo Bang on The Breakfast Club

Source: Johnny Nunez / Getty Fredo Bang’s been in the rap game for a few years now, and though he’s still looking for his true breakout record in the game, he’s made quite the name for himself in the South plus certain circles and is now looking to ride that buzz from coast to coast. Earlier this week, the Baton Rouge rapper swung by The Breakfast Club in his Southernplayalistic steez to talk about music, religion, and porn. Seriously. Answering all questions thrown at him by Angela Yee, DJ Envy, and Charlamagne Tha God, Fredo obviously doesn’t have a problem living his life as an open book and isn’t scared to be judged by fans and listeners regardless of how “embarrassing” something might seem. Gotta respect that. Here are the 10 things we learned from Fredo Bang. Though Boosie Badazz is ...

Charlamagne Tha God Says Actor LaKeith Standfield Needs Medical Help [Video]

Source: Tom Williams / Getty One of the culture’s biggest voices is in a tit for tat with another celebrity. This time Charlamagne Tha God is at it with LaKeith Stanfield. As spotted on Hot New Hip Hop the media personality is now embroiled in a war of pettiness with the actor. Years back the Monk’s Corner, South Carolina native had addressed him directly in 2019 when the thespian had made some very direct comments regarding Black media where he specifically called out outlets liike The Breakfast Club, Worldstar, and Lipstick Alley. “It’s a fact that a lot of these platforms are usually or tend to be feeding grounds for negative reinforcement toward BLACK ‘nonconformists,’” he posted on Instagram. “They bolster faux vanity and hold a white supremacists scope over black men and wo...

Charlamange Tha God Says The Drake Era Is “Over”

Known for not exactly being Drake’s biggest fan, Tha God shocked many when he said he wasn’t just not looking forward to Drizzy’s upcoming project Certified Lover Boy, but that the Canadian crooner/rapper’s reign was basically a wrap. During his Brilliant Idiots podcast, Charlamagne explained that he felt Drake had already given us everything he could during his illustrious career and didn’t know if the “Back-To-Back” rapper had anything left to impress. “Drake has given us so much music that I don’t know if he has another gear,” Tha God bluntly stated. “We know Kendrick has a...

Charlamagne Tha God Apologized To Angela Yee For Gucci Mane Slander

Source: Rich Fury / Getty It’s been almost a year since Angela Yee unfollowed her Breakfast Club co-host Charlamagne Tha God for failing to defend her honor during an interview with Gucci Mane in which Guwop disparaged Yee (and DJ Envy) for denying the two ever had a fling (not Envy though). Since then fans of the morning show have felt the relationship between the two has been strained to say the least. But now Charlamange has not only acknowledged the rift the interview caused, but also publicly apologized to Yee for not standing up for her when he should have. During an interview with DJ Vlad for Vlad TV, Charlamagne was asked about Gucci calling Angela a “Punk a** b*tch” and how it affected his friendship with Angela Yee when he didn’t push back on the slander. “It wasn’t a good affect...

Charlamagne Tha God Admits Rush Limbaugh Interview Was A Bust, Reveals It Wasn’t Their Idea

Source: CBS Photo Archive / Getty It might’ve taken a few days but Charlamagne Tha God has admitted what we all knew from the get: There wasn’t any point in interviewing far-right Trump-supporter, Rush Limbaugh. Touching on the subject during his appearance on the Late Show With Stephen Colbert, the Breakfast Club co-host acknowledged that the universally panned crossover of shows was indeed a dud as Rush did what most right-wing Trumpians do when talking about systemic racism: deny, deny, deny. After Stephen revealed he was “surprised” that Charlamagne would give airtime to such a racially divisive figure in America, Tha God explained that he doesn’t have a problem “talking to people from the other side” of the political spectrum, but that ultimately his interview with Rush was a “waste o...

Charlamagne Tha God Feels Black People Need To Legally Strap Up To Avoid Becoming Another Ahmaud Arbrey

Source: Tom Williams / Getty The modern day lynching of Ahmaud Arbrey sent shockwaves across the nation as it was a reminder that not only are Black people continuously hunted down by both authorities and everyday Amerikkkans, but that the justice system is a complete joke as his killers were allowed to walk free until the video caused an uproar and people demanded justice. Though both his caucasian killers have since been arrested for his unjust murder, a conviction isn’t exactly guaranteed as we learned when George Zimmerman was found innocent for the murder of Trayvon Martin. But is this racial disparity in America the reason behind Black men and women going out and purchasing firearms? Charlamagne Tha God seems to think it’s a factor and truth be told, he’s not wrong. During a panel di...
