ACTRESS-TURNED AUTHOR TARAJI P. HENSON
Golden Globe winner Taraji P. Henson is best known for playing the sassy and brassy Cookie Lyon on Fox’s Empire, but she’s channeled a less-well-known part of her life — her slow climb to the top — in a deeply personal memoir. Around the Way Girl: A Memoir is a candid and brutally honest account of her life, she explained on Good Morning America‘s Robin Roberts on Tuesday, because, “we need each other as humans. If my life experiences can help someone else in life, why not?” She continued, “That’s what we’re here for as humans,” she said. We make the world go ‘round. We inspire each other as humans.…

Mike Colter Responds to Comments about Marriage
Mike Colter, the star of Marvel’s “Luke Cage,” isn’t going to let the haters get in the way of enjoying his life, including his interracial marriage. Colter and his wife, Iva, have been happily married for 16 years, and he had words for people who criticized him for marrying a white woman: “I love my [African-American] sisters. People always go, ‘Man that’s his type.’ If somebody caught a sista walking around with a 6’7″ brother, is that her type? Next week you see her walking with a short guy or Spanish guy — do we have to have a type? I’m a human being,” the 40-year-old actor said. “I look…

Marvel Release “Luke Cage” Soundtrack
Netflix series “Luke Cage,” Marvel’s finest work yet, is getting an original soundtrack released on vinyl, according to the latest reports. After receiving a score and a new track from two legends (Adrian Younge & Ali Shaheed Muhammad), it’s only right that “Luke Cage” fans would be getting a full LP of original music. No word yet if the Method Man-assisted track “Bulletproof Love” or “Feel Alive” will be featured on the album, but given Marvel’s deep love and understanding for hip-hop, we expect the entire record to be nasty.

SOULJA BOY QUITS LOVE & HIP HOP
Soulja Boy no longer thinks Love & Hip Hop is a good fit for him. He took to Twitter to explain his disdain for the show. Twitter seemed to have supported his decision. I’ve decided to quit Love and hip hop. I feel my brand is too big for the show now. It’s too ratchet. I have my own new tv show coming soon! — Soulja Boy (@souljaboy) October 3, 2016

“ATLANTA” DONALD GLOVER’S BEST EFFORT YET
Donald Glover is not your average human being. He is a multi-talented wunderkind and possibly the most creative person to come about in the last decade. His career path is one that I have personally been following since he was a writer and occasional guest star on “30 Rock.” As a big fan of his work, I always felt that the way that he was portrayed on television was what other people thought of him: a nerdy black guy beloved by both black and white people. Glover as a musician is far from that. His music work as Childish Gambino is much darker, and feels like a more authentic version…

[Sports] CAM NEWTON BEING SUED FOR $270K
Cam Newton rented an $11 million mansion back in March after the Carolina Panthers’ Super Bowl loss to the Denver Broncos. He reportedly paid $123,000 to rent the mansion for 61 days and agreed there would be no parties, no smoking, and no more than eight guests. Newton allegedly didn’t adhere to the agreement. The housekeeper snitched, telling the rental company Newton had been throwing multiple parties and leaving cigarette ashes all over the house. Newton was reportedly warned to cut it out, but he allegedly responded by telling the housekeeper to stop telling on him. The Panthers’ quarterback is now being sued by Jared Pobre, the husband of…

Marvel Comics’ first Black superhero to have his own comic book title, has become the first Black superhero to lead an on-screen Marvel production. Netflix brought the world something it’s never seen on Friday [September 30], with the release of “Marvel’s Luke Cage,” 44 years after the character made history through Marvel’s 1972 print publication.

Trayvon Martin and people like him. People like Jordan Davis, a kid who was shot because of the perception that he was a danger. When you’re…
