Lenard McKelvey (born June 29, 1980), known professionally as Charlamagne Tha God, is an American radio presenter and television personality. He is a co-host of the nationally syndicated radio show, The Breakfast Club with DJ Envy and Angela Yee, and stars in Guy Code, Guy Court and Girl Code, VJ for The Week in Jams with DJ Envy and Sofi Green. In 2015, Charlamagne began hosting the MTV2 show Uncommon Sense. He was previously on The Wendy Williams Experience with Wendy Williams on VH1.
Charlamagne grew up in Moncks Corner, South Carolina.
Charlamagne Tha God began his career as a radio intern in South Carolina upon his release from prison. He went on to become second mic alongside radio host and media personality Wendy Williams. At this point, his unorthodox and upfront questioning of Hip-Hop/R&B artists on radio raised his public profile but also caused rifts between himself and the guests of the show. He was laid off from the program in 2008. Relations between Charlamagne and Williams deteriorated, though Charlamagne has stated numerous times on his show The Breakfast Club that he views Williams as a mentor and bears no ill feeling toward her.
Charlamagne tha God is a radio personality with DJ Envy and Angela Yee on The Breakfast Club on Power 105.1 in New York City, New York and 93.7 New Hip Hop in Houston, Texas. He is a cast member of Guy Code, a comedy television show on MTV2 that talks about a special code of conduct just for men.
