In October 2019, Charlamagne had a one-on-one interview with rapper Gucci Mane. Before their interview, Gucci was in a social media beef with Angela and Envy. Gucci claimed in an Instagram post that Angela and Envy got him “banned” from the show after he accused Angela of trying to have sex with him, which she vehemently denied. During the interview, Gucci called Angela a "punk a-- b---h" to Charlamagne.

Following their interview, Angela became upset with Charlamagne for not defending her against Gucci. By January 2020, the Lip Service host confirmed that she and her co-worker weren’t friends and planned to remain cordial for The Breakfast Club.

“We’ve always been the same. We work together; it is what it is," Angela told Variety of her and Charlamagne’s relationship. "Like he said, we’re co-workers. A lot of people have jobs where they don’t necessarily love the people they work with; it’s just a part of life. That’s not the person you’d hang out with in real life."

Angela also revealed that the Gucci interview wasn’t the first time she felt disrespected by her co-host.

“There’s been a lot of experiences,” she admitted. “The important thing is I’ve always been a responsible person. As a woman, too, you have to be a lot stronger," she said. "Things are always happening that if you let it bother you, you’ll be mad all the time. It’s hard not to [take things personally].”

Charlamagne and Angela’s feud continued through 2020. However, the hosts were only in the same room for a few months until the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic caused them to film The Breakfast Club from home. Charlamagne stated in an interview with VladTV that his and Angela’s distance made him reflect on his role in her and Gucci’s beef.

“I can definitely see why Angela Yee would feel that way," Tha God’s Honest Truth host said in September 2020 "It's nuance to everything.”
