Is Hip-Hop Radio Show ‘The Breakfast Club’ Over?

Is one of the longest Hip-Hop radio shows, The Breakfast Club, over?

On August 10, 2022, one of the co-hosts, Angela Yee, tweeted, “The breakfast club, as you know it is officially over.”

Yee’s announcement sent shock waves across social media, with fans panicking and asking for confirmation. She did not elaborate further on the tweet, but 15 minutes before the tweet, she tweeted, “God is good.” 

So far, fellow co-hosts DJ Envy and Charlamagne Tha God have not yet commented on the matter. 

The Breakfast Club is a syndicated radio show that launched in December 2010 on power 105.1. It airs in over 90 radio markets around the US and brings over 8 million listeners monthly. 

Every weekday, celebrities, especially in the hip-hop industry, are invited to discuss progressive politics, the hip-hop industry, and dating issues. 

‘The Breakfast Club’ Inducted to Hall of Fame

The Breakfast Club is one of the most popular radio shows and has achieved many milestones. 

It earned the top spot on The Source Power 30 Radio and DJ’s list and was nominated for an NAACP Image Award in the category of Outstanding News/Information (Series or Special). 

But perhaps the most prestigious moment was when it was inducted into the Radio Hall of Fame in August 2020. 

Following their induction, the hosts took to social media to react to the news. DJ Envy took to Instagram and excitedly announced the news and thanked all their listeners.

Yee also thanked the fans while congratulating the other inductees. 

“What an accomplishment! We are in the Radio Hall of Fame class of 2020!. And for everyone who listens to us in the morning and is part of our family, thank you so much for this honor!” she wrote.

Meanwhile, Charlamagne thanked God in his Instagram post and asked their fans to continue tuning into the show. He also added that someday people would look back and respect them for how they impacted the culture over the past decade. 

Fans React to the Show’s Possible Cancelation

Unfortunately, despite fans’ love, the show might be finished. Fans were heartbroken after Yee’s tweet and reminisced about the good times they had with the show. 

While the news has not been confirmed, fans have already started theorizing the reason the show could be canceled.

Many people felt Yee’s tweet on the alleged cancelation could be because of Charlamagne’s show. 

In July 2021, Charlamagne announced that his new show Tha God’s Honest Truth with Charlamagne Tha God was debuting on Comedy Central in September. The weekly, late-night features “deep dives, sketches and social experiments” on politics, culture, and social issues. 

Recently, People announced that the show was renewed for a second season, and the name of the show was changed to Hell of A Week with Charlamagne Tha God. 

Fans claimed that Charlamagne probably did not have time for The Breakfast Club now that he was focusing on his show.
