'The Breakfast Club' is hosted by Charlamagne tha God, Angela Yee, and DJ Envy who on social media enjoy a massive fan following. The renowned hip-hop show kickstarted in 2010 and gave us many iconic moments, from Soulja Boy’s interviews to Kodak Black wearing a ski mask for his interview in 2018. The show also made headlines for an open discussion on whether rapper 6ix9ine should be invited back on the show or not following his arrest for federal racketeering and firearms charges. Social media users rushed to the micro-blogging site to find out the reason behind the show coming to an end.
