March 10, 2016
Remy Ma looking good! “Platos o Plomo” (translation:Â “Money or Bullets”) is on the way; and it’s gonna be good. You already heard that “All The Way Up” right? Okay then.

Among other things, in the first half of this interview (way over an hour strong), Fat Joe and Remy Ma discuss mending their friendship after HEATED beef; working on new music together; how Joe went down for that tax evasion bid, Joe’s fear of flying; missing out on signing Eminem & Pitbull; the continuing influence of Big Pun (RIP). The second half has Remy talking about her wedding, Fat Joe talking about getting sued 10 times in one year, how they’re going to appeal to young people; and so much more!

Dave East Speaks On His Life As A ‘Baller’ Before Doing Music, Meeting Nas And Getting On And More (Video)
January 26, 2016
“Hate Me Now” is the New York sound…I got it.
C Tha God asked Harlem emcee Dave East if he was banging a bunch of Spanish and Dominican chicks being from over there and he was like, “Trying.” Haaa! And what got him into rap? Failing at a lot of stuff… basketball, Towson University (dude is 6’5″& used to play with Kevin Durant), did a bid behind the bars for a gun charge… only then doing the bars behind beats. He admits that rap is plan B.
Wow. Watch Dave East share that and plenty of other revelations with The Breakfast Club. Talking about his solid East Coast sound, his new project (“Hate Me Now”), being on Mass Appeal Records & how he linked up with Nas and much more.

Rick Ross – “Sorry” feat. Chris Brown
November 16, 2015
“Sorry” don’t make it right… I know.
“Sorry” if you think different, but Rozay is focused! Hit after hit, and the follow through secures the win. The “Black Dollar” mixtape is a healthy helping of bangers; but the meal isn’t finished. The “Black Market” LP is coming. And if it’s like this “Sorry” single… whew… hope you saved some room for another plate. Pop a button and press play. Shout to C Breezy for his contribution. Smooth with the roughness. Enjoy!
Bonus: See Ross jump off the record, stopping by the Power 105 Breakfast Club to share it with NYC and the world, after the jump.

Scarface Keeps It Real About Hip-Hop, Reminisces About Eazy-E & N.W.A. Back In The Day And More (Video)
September 9, 2015
Sometimes it takes seeing it through the eyes of an O.G. who you thought had seen it all… to get back your appreciation of it. Right off the bat, Scarface is making a big deal about his latest NY trip. The Power 105 Breakfast Club presses him to describe the ‘what’ that had him excited: It was Hip-Hop, NYC and Hip-Hop in NYC! Truth was, until this latest August trip he had not seen a real ‘jam in the park’ – no superstars, no ‘turn up’ – just the people jamming to Hip-Hop in the park. And he comes to New York a lot… Hell, he’s been to the Apple enough to know how to catch the train…
And yet, we NEVER get tired of Uncle Face’s interviews. Check this one out: Talking about being himself and staying himself (Scarface, Brad Jordan, no turn up; but no disrespect to the youth who do) this time out; talking about how he is in no hurry to see ‘Straight Outta Compton’ (because he was there when everything they are talking about happened); what’s going on with Geto Boys and their last tour and more.

Dr. Umar Johnson Gets Detailed on ‘The Breakfast Club’ About Issues Affecting the Black Community (Video)
September 1, 2015
Although I don’t speak with Dr. Umar Johnson on a regular basis I still consider him a friend. I went to school with Umar Johnson before he became “Dr. Umar” & it wasn’t uncommon for us to have many conversations years ago about what’s going on within the black community. Not only are we both from North Philly, but we have both served as the President of our school’s Black Student Union at different times. We’ve organized & traveled to the historic Million Man March in D.C. with a large group of brothers as well has having mentored young students through an organization called ‘Positive Images’ back in Pennsylvania for a few years. He was always an avid debater on a variety of issues & always held true to his convictions. Rarely have I’ve seen him back down from a heated debate even if it centered on something as simple as hip hop music or sports during lunch in the cafeteria. One thing that I can co-sign is that Umar has always been consistent in who he was & in his beliefs.
So of course it’s difficult for me to believe any of his recent detractors who try to say he’s anything less than authentic. Dr. Umar Johnson didn’t just pop up overnight because he’s been doing this for as long than I’ve known him. I’m excited yet not surprised to see him finally breaking through with his greater message to better the situation for African-Americans & others around the world through a Pan-Africanist viewpoint. Although he continues to travel around the globe delivering his message & through a variety of grassroots lectures that most people have posted on youtube, I feel proud & happy to finally see him start to reach the audiences who best need to hear his message. It was always his life work to do what he’s doing at this very moment. Check the interview with Dr. Umar Johnson with “The Breakfast Club” at Power 105 in New York above & get some food for thought.

Minister Louis Farrakhan Speaks On His Life, The Nation, The Way Forward And More (Video)
June 8, 2015
I don’t do [many interviews]… When I did interviews… they sent their best at me… When they could not defeat our arguments, they decided to ban me from television; and they banned me from going to Black colleges, and even White colleges, to deliver a message. So… many people thought I had died.
– Minister Louis Farrakhan
Respect, respect, RESPECT! Power 105’s Breakfast Club with the ultimate ‘get’ – an exclusive sit-down with the Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan. Sure, there are a few chuckles, but this interview reveals insights (so many insights) from the Minister – his views on this generation, how he came to the Nation of Islam, outside influences on internal struggles in the Black community, what it takes to make a better tomorrow… SO MUCH MORE!

June 2, 2015
Yeah! N.O.R.E. pops up to pop off on Power 105! Nah, not for real.

Scarface Speaks On His Longevity, New Music, Better Health And More (Video)
April 27, 2015
Lean in for this one: Mr. Scarface stops by Power 105 for a Breakfast Club interview. FaceMob talks about the moves he had to make to continue to live – losing weight, exercising and letting go of the drugs. He talked about his book – which in part expresses dark suicidal thoughts and insights on what he would say to someone else trying to make it through what he did.
And of course, he went deep on the Geto Boys. Great watch!

Killer Mike Talks About Mike Brown, Ferguson, Police, & More Over Breakfast (Video)
August 30, 2014
America. Hip-Hop Nation. Humanity. Killer Mike will make you proud again in this interview. After a night of engaging in more “righteous ratchetness” with DJ Envy, Mike accepted the invitation to fall through and chat with the crew the next morning during the Power 105 morning show. This conversation rivals the knowledge and passion kicked in Killer Mike’s CNN interview on all matters relating to Ferguson and Mike Brown (posted earlier here).
If you don’t have good common sense, you shouldn’t be a policeman on foot patrol. If you don’t have great common sense, you shouldn’t be a policeman in command. So, is it harder for a policeman? Absolutely. Are you held at a higher standard? Absolutely. Are you the only civil servant with the power of life and death in your hands? Absolutely, and that requires more responsibility.
– Killer Mike
Please watch!

April 1, 2014
Now The Breakfast Club is on Revolt TV? Power move. Only right they get a guest like 50 Cent for the debut TV episode. But Revolt TV is Diddy’s channel, and Rick Ross (a rival of 50’s) is in his camp… so, yeah, 50 had a chuckle with the Power 105 morning crew over that. 50 went on to make lively TV via interview video: speaking on air travel with Ja Rule, on Lloyd Banks and Tony Yayo, on his new single “Smoke,” on his departure from Interscope, on (drum roll) “Detox” and more.
