These days, The Breakfast Club wields considerable influence over popular culture. Charlamagne Tha God and DJ Envy’s widely followed morning show has become the go-to destination for news and engaging discussions on current issues. Additionally, they often bestow the “Donkey of the Day” title upon individuals for actions they consider foolish.
However, in the case of Busta Rhymes, a previous recipient of the “Donkey of the Day” honor, he expressed his discontent with the designation.
Charlamagne has built a reputation for ruffling feathers and generating viral moments, particularly with even the most media-savvy celebrities. However, in 2012, he found himself on the wrong side of a confrontation with a rapper.
The incident occurred during a pre-BET Awards birthday celebration for Melanie Fiona in Los Angeles, where Busta Rhymes confronted Charlamagne regarding some comments he had made about him on the air. Charlamagne recalled making light of Busta Rhymes and DMX’s remix of Jay-Z and Kanye West’s single “Otis.” He acknowledged that at the time, his show was still relatively new, and he was eager to establish a name for himself. Their encounter at the event escalated into a heated argument, with both celebrities under the influence, and it nearly led to a physical altercation. Charlamagne recounted that their respective entourages swiftly intervened, preventing the situation from getting out of hand.
