Chlöe Lashes Out At DJ Envy On “The Breakfast Club”: Watch

by

The response to Chlöe Bailey’s debut solo album, In Pieces, has likely been far more mixed than the 24-year-old anticipated. Regardless of what critics have had to say, however, she’s carried her head high and performed with all of her might across the country over the past few weeks. She still has a few concerts left, but before taking the stage again, Bailey found time in her busy schedule to appear on The Breakfast Club with hosts Charlamagne and DJ Envy.

Unfortunately for the Atlanta native, she was left feeling fed up with the latter when he didn’t know the names of songs from her new project. “Listen… Come here. Did you download the album?” Bailey asked Envy on air this morning. “I streamed it,” he confirmed. “Ok, so what was your favourite song?” the R&B starlet pushed. After a moment of undeniably awkward silence, she popped off on the media personality. “You keep wanting to throw [Charlamagne] under the bus! Nope, nope. Tell me your favourite song,” Chlöe insisted.

Chlöe Isn’t Here for Disrespect

“I’m a DJ, so I play the record in the club,” Envy explained to his guest. “So, which one?” Bailey asked again, ignoring his attempt to avoid her question. “Which one did you play from ‘In Pieces’? Because ‘Have Mercy’ isn’t on ‘In Pieces,’” the performer continued to call the 45-year-old out while noting that her 2021 single will appear on the album’s upcoming deluxe cut. In wake of the comedic footage circulating online, many social media users are running to stream the multi-talent’s debut solo album. Elsewhere, others have been comparing her to Nicki Minaj for fearlessly calling male media personalities out on their disrespect.

Aside from Envy’s attitude today, many music lovers have also criticized the “For The Night” singer for collaborating with Chris Brown on her project. Regardless of the haters, the two have had each other’s backs over the past few weeks as they focus on their own unique endeavours. Tap into Chlöe’s first appearance on The Breakfast Club below, and tell us if you think DJ Envy’s behaviour was disrespectful in the comments below.

Chlöe Exposes ‘The Breakfast Club’s DJ Envy For Not Knowing Her Songs

by

Chlöe is officially over internet trolls ruining her fun. As Charlamagne Tha God put it when she visited Power 105.1’s The Breakfast Club show this morning, “digital dickheads” have been getting her down — but lately, she’s been fighting back. “Come at me bro,” she said.

Toward the end of the interview, though, after DJ Envy tried to shade Charlamagne for not downloading Chlöe’s debut album In Pieces, she had to drag him, too. “Did you download the album?” she questioned him. “I streamed it,” he said.

The interrogation didn’t stop there, though. “Okay, so what was your favorite song?” Chlöe wondered. This stopped Envy in his tracks. And while he tried to plead out by saying that he’s played “Have Mercy” in the club, she pointed out that “Have Mercy” wasn’t included on the album proper, and again questioned what song from the album he played. “Caught!” she snarked.

Obviously, this was more of a comedic moment between the host and guest, but Chlöe has been making it a point lately to call out the trolls who have so much to say about her, but aren’t real fans. Her In Pieces tour backdrop puts some of the more common criticisms on display, allowing her the platform to strike back, and her interviews have found her confronting those people head on.

DJ Envy Lost $250K In Jewelry, Including Bust-Down Rolex, While Travelling: Video

by

DJ Envy’s celebrity status wasn’t enough to keep him from enduring a major L at the airport this past weekend. On Tuesday (March 28), the media personality told those tuning into The Breakfast Club that he, unfortunately, lost a quarter of a million dollars worth of jewelry after crossing paths with an uptight TSA agent. After his co-host, Charlamagne Tha God lightly trolled him and pressed for the details, he sadly recounted his tragic loss.

“I was travelling from Atlanta back to New York on Friday I had my roller, my backpack and I have my blazer, you know, because I was just shooting,” Envy began. He then noted that he wasn’t able to put his blazer in his luggage as he didn’t want it to crease. “Usually, I’m a Delta Million Miler, I’m Diamond, they don’t give me a problem. They just hang my jacket up for me,” the author explained, though “[the] white woman” who he interacted with that day “was not trying to hear it.”

DJ Envy Recounts His Unfortunate Loss

Envy told Charlamagne, “She was nasty. I don’t know if she had a bad day, but she told me I couldn’t do it. So I said, okay, I had to check my bag. When I went to check my bag, I remember my jewelry was in there. I was like, you know, let me take it out and put it in my backpack. When I went on a plane, I left the jewelry.” The 45-year-old noted that he’s attempted to contact Delta in hopes of tracking down the valuable pieces. Among them were a bust-down Rolex, a ring, and chains engraved with his wife and children’s names.

While DJ Envy hasn’t heard back from the airline quite yet, he did inform listeners that he at least has insurance on his missing jewelry. During TBC broadcast, one caller didn’t hold back when telling the host about their disgust over the situation. “Okay, so you’re gonna pick this platform and use it to hope that she’s listening because you want her to bring it back to you, but Envy, nobody leaves Cartier at the airport. You want to know why? Because nobody who works a nine-to-five goes to the airport wearing a Cartier. Nobody does that. Why would you do that?” they asked. In response, Envy declared, “If I did it on purpose I would feel a lot easier but I didn’t do it on purpose. It’s sentimental!” Check it out in the video above, and tap back in later for more pop culture news updates.

[WATCH] DJ Envy Starts Debate For Saying 50 Cent Would Beat Lil Wayne In Verzuz Battle

Screen Shot 2023 03 24 at 12.58.21 PM

On the most recent episode of Apple Music’s Rap Life Review featuring Lowkey, Nadaska, and Eddie Francis, two of the three said that Lil Wayne would have to sequence his songs in the right order in a Verzuz battle in order to beat 50 Cent.

Lowkey said, “Wayne don’t have a Get Rich Or Die Tryin.’” I ain’t sayin’ 50 gonna wash Wayne but if Wayne’s not sequenced right, and it’s not positioned correctly, that could be a very long f***ing night.” 

Envy and Charlamagne added on to the convo on The Breakfast Club with Charlamagne agreeing with Lowkey, saying, “Yes, Lil Wayne doesn’t have a Get Rich but Lil Wayne has massive, massive amounts of hits… One album cannot win you a Verzuz.” Envy cut him off by adding, “He is right… Get Rich or Die Tryin’ is a classic album but you can’t sit there and act like Lil Wayne doesn’t have classic bodies of work.” 

Charlamagne said Fif “would need something more than just Get Rich Or Die Tryin’  to go against one of the top five, potentially top 3, greatest rappers alive.” DJ Envy ended the debate by saying that “50 Cent would win that battle.” 

See the debate below.

DJ Envy Believes 50 Cent Would Beat Lil Wayne In A “Verzuz” Battle

by

Though Verzuz hasn’t made a full comeback post-pandemic, DJ Envy shared his thoughts on a potential battle between Lil Wayne and 50 Cent on The Breakfast Club. Over the past few years, people have suggested opponents for Fif and Weezy separately, though no one really thought a match-up like this would make sense. After all, by the time 50 Cent released Curtis, Lil Wayne was on pace to drop off his biggest commercial success, Tha Carter III. Still, DJ Envy felt as though the Louisiana rapper wouldn’t be able to compete against Fif if they went 20-for-20.

The hypothetical battle initially came up during Apple Music’s Rap Life Review with Lowkey, Nadaska, and Eddie Francis. Lowkey and Francis said that Wayne would need the right sequencing to compete against 50 Cent. “Wayne don’t have a Get Rich Or Die Tryin’,” Lowkey said, explaining that he’s speaking exclusively on a Verzuz battle. “I ain’t sayin’ 50 gonna wash Wayne but if Wayne’s not sequenced right, and it’s not positioned correctly, that could be a very long fucking night.”

DJ Envy Choose 50 Cent Over Lil Wayne

Envy agreed with Lowkey’s assessment of the battle between the two cultural icons but Charlamagne took it as a shot toward the South. “Yes, Lil Wayne doesn’t have a Get Rich but Lil Wayne has massive, massive amounts of hits… One album cannot win you a Verzuz,” he said. However, Envy explained why he sided with Lowkey on the matter. “He is right… Get Rich or Die Tryin’ is a classic album but you can’t sit there and act like Lil Wayne doesn’t have classic bodies of work,” he said.

At this point, Charlamagne explained that people would definitely tune in for that showdown but 50 Cent “would need something more than just Get Rich Or Die Tryin’  to go against one of the top five, potentially top 3, greatest rappers alive.” Charlamagne added that Wayne already had a stacked catalog by the time the Young Money era began. “Now, 50 Cent would win that battle,” Envy stated before Charlamagne interrupted. “It would be 20 and 20. I do,” Envy added. Check his comments above. 

DJ Envy Says Angela Yee “Misspoke” In New Interview

by

In response to Angela Yee’s comments about being the only woman working on The Breakfast Club, former cohost DJ Envy said that she “misspoke.” However, his denial of the claim that Yee was the only woman on the show doesn’t necessarily come from a place of bad blood. Moreover, he said that when it comes to close friends, honesty is an important two-way street to maintain. Furthermore, he addressed this situation in a recent interview with the Michigan Chronicle. The interviewer asked Envy for his reaction to Angela’s comments after calling her sole woman claim cap on Instagram.

“I mean, she was,” Envy replied to the prompt that Yee was seemingly the only woman on the show. “I mean, it was her, Charlamagne and myself, so she was the only woman on air. But behind the scenes, it was so many different- I mean, our boss, the actual person that pays our bills and pays our checks and hires us is Thea Mitchem who’s a woman. I think she misspoke, I think the words were taken out of I guess technicality. I’m sure she would clean it up, but there’s a lot of women who work on that show.”

DJ Envy Believes Angela Yee Misspoke

He went on to list various female producers who worked with the crew. “There was a lot of women on that, there was a lot of diverse people on that. But I’m glad that she has her own show. She’s doing well, I’m excited for her. We come on early, she comes on right after us. I mean, it’s just like anything else. It’s no problem, it’s no beef or nothing like that. I guess her comments and the things that she said were taken out of character and taken out of what they really meant.

“Nah, I ain’t gotta clear up s**t,” he continued, responding to whether he’d clear up his relationship with Angela after his Instagram comments. “I mean, it’s what it is, it’s the truth, it’s honesty. You can be honest with all your friends, you know what I mean? It doesn’t mean I don’t like somebody or they don’t like me. You say something foul at me, I can say something foul to you back, it is what it is. Or you say something right to me, I’mma say something right to you back. Look at it like this. It’s bigger than The Breakfast Club, it’s bigger than Way Up with Yee, it’s bigger than all that. You’re talking Power 105.1, which is our home station. Sometimes, we argue with each other or we say things we don’t like, and we say it and we keep it moving.” Regardless of your take, log back into HNHH for the latest on Angela Yee, DJ Envy, and The Breakfast Club.

DJ Envy Calls Cap On Angela Yee’s “The Breakfast Club” Comments, Erica Mena & Lil Mama Join In

by

Angela Yee’s departure from The Breakfast Club came as a surprise to many. Still, with so many years in the industry under her belt, the media personality isn’t having a hard time staying booked and busy. Unfortunately for her, that may all be about to change thanks to comments she made on the Tamron Hall Show about her time spent working alongside DJ Envy and Charlamagne tha God. According to her, working in a male-dominated environment left her feeling a lack of support while doing her job.

“I was the only woman who worked there, too. When it came to producers, camera people – and it wasn’t an easy room for me to be in,” the 47-year-old vented earlier this week. “I feel like I did need more like backup you know because even things that I felt, as a woman… Somebody can’t understand your point of view because they’re not coming from where you come from. So that was hard for me too, to be the only woman there.” As footage of Yee’s interview continues to circulate, one of her former cohosts is calling cap.

DJ Envy Denies Yee’s Claims

In @theshaderoom’s comment section, DJ Envy dropped by to defend The Breakfast Club. “That’s just not true,” he wrote. “There are plenty of women that work behind the scenes on the @breakfastclubam.” Elsewhere in the same comment section, TV personality Erica Mena had a few things to say as well. “Is this the same woman who helped DJ Shrimp play along in living this double life once upon a time? One of the few at the time that actually knew the truth of him being married (because for years he never openly acknowledge that – which is why I was one of many he was with),” she began.

Afterward the mother of three accused Yee of knowingly letting her hook up with a married man, she added, “[She] still joined in with him, fabricating this cry world scenario on the radio just so he can save face in his broken marriage. The same woman that spoke about my child on air just [to] help him degrade me?! The f*cking nerve! Boy, do things come full circle!”

Erica and Lil Mama Speak Their Truth

As more receipts exposing the Lip Service hostess have been coming out, a former guest on The Breakfast Club, Lil Mama, is also speaking her truth. She was previously left in tears during her stint on the show and obviously feels as though Yee didn’t do anything to help her from feeling like the only woman in the room at that moment.

“Oh PLEASE, she was up there playing foul games too,” the “Lip Gloss” artist pointed out. “She has helped make multiple women (of colour especially) feel like the only woman in that room numerous times. #RockThrowingHandHidingBitch.” Keep scrolling to read the starlet’s comments about Angela Yee for yourself, and check back later for more pop culture news.
