The Morning Hustle crew had plenty to unpack today, starting with Cardi B finding herself in the middle of heated rap beefs with Nicki Minaj and Ice Spice. From leaked phone calls to sharp social media jabs, the drama is boiling over, leaving fans wondering who will step up for the next round. LeBron James also made headlines by shutting down speculation that he’ll delay retirement to play alongside both of his sons, reminding everyone that he’s on his own timeline despite making history on the court with Bronny. 

Adding to the buzz, Jussie Smollett joined the show to talk about his return to music with his new album Breakout. After years away from the spotlight, Smollett revealed how the project leans into live instrumentation and classic R&B influences, featuring contributions from music legends like James Gadson and Curtis Williams. With raw honesty and a renewed focus, he described Breakout as the kind of timeless album meant to soundtrack everything from cleaning up the house to falling in love.
