'The Breakfast Club': A look back at 5 best interviews from iconic hip-hop radio show
NEW YORK CITY, NEW YORK: 'The Breakfast Club' is coming to an end and it almost feels like the end of an era. Hosted by DJ Envy, Angela Yee, and Charlamagne tha God, the sad news came only hours ago when Yee took to her Twitter and said that one of the most iconic hip-hop radio shows was coming to an end. The show became the poster child for Power 105.1 and it aired in over 90 radio markets around the US, including Chicago, Philadelphia, Atlanta, and Miami.
Running since 2010, the radio talk show was responsible for giving us some memorable moments with hip-hop names like 6ix9ine, Kodak Black, Soula Boy, Ray J Birdman, and so much more. All it took was one single tweet from Angela Yee who wrote: "The breakfast club as you know it is officially over," and the fans of the show were flabbergasted. So far, the official accounts for 'The Breakfast Club,' Charlamagne tha God, and DJ Envy have not said anything in regard to the show's surprise ending. One of the reasons why the show ended could be Charlamagne's new series ‘Hell Of A Week With Charlamagne tha God’ and him putting his focus on it. In the memory of the hit radio show, let's run over 5 of the best moments from the show.

Soon enough, Ray J went on the radio show and lashed out.

Part-time Cash Money owner and a legend amongst many rappers, Birdman was heavily trolled on the show and became a living meme. Birdman became a meme material in just 90 seconds, when he said, "Put some respek on my name," and hinting that things might get gangster otherwise. Charlamagane replied, "Did you pull up on [Rick] Ross that way, or Trick Daddy?" The king of no chill did not entertain Birdman in no way whatsoever.

Nicki Minaj, at the peak of her career in 2012, called out the entire crew of 'The Breakfast Club' when they tried to sexualize her. She ranted and asked them to do their research and to put 'respeck' on her name. She went as far as to say that they shouldn't invite anyone on their show if they are not thorough with their research. This interview pumped her fanbase and severed her relationship with tha God.

One of the most iconic moments of the radio show was when Soulja Boy came and took a dig at almost everyone. All it took was him claiming that he taught Drake "everything." He said, "Stop playing with me like I didn’t teach Drake everything he know. You didn’t hear Drake on his first song – [singing] ‘Tell me what’s really going on / Drizzy Drake back in this thing / I’m ready / What’s happenin’?"

Now comes the king of memes, Kodak Black, wearing a ski mask. Last 11 minutes of the interview he was asked about his stunt and his 2017 interview to which he said, "I just came in like, man, you know, I really ain't fucking with this shit," said Kodak, who claimed he never watched the interview in question. "But then at the same time I'm like, man, I want to show another side of me, like my intellectuality . . . because people be thinking I'm stupid and sh*t." Moreover, he refused to comment on his claims of beating Lil Wayne when Charlamagne told him that he has to "out rap" the legend of hip-hop.
