The Eyez of the Beholder
What you see is not always a depiction of what is being displayed but more often a reflection of one’s own thoughts, beliefs, and intelligence levels. For instance, the picture above– what do you see? When I first came across this image on Facebook at first glance my only thought was wow what a beautiful chocolate model and creative family photo. I scrolled on really didn’t think anymore about it until I kept seeing and discovered social media had deemed the picture “controversial”. Personally, I initially didn’t understand where the shock and outrage was coming from until I read some of the comments which expressed disgust with this beautiful woman because…

N.W.A Shuts Down Gene Simmons During Rock Hall Induction Speech
Kiss’ Gene Simmons has a lot of opinions — one of them, probably unsurprisingly, is that “rap will die.” He recently told Rolling Stone, “I am looking forward to the death of hip-hop,” a stance that some rappers naturally took issue with. Well, during N.W.A’s induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame class of 2016, MC Ren shut down Simmons’ prediction in no uncertain terms at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn on Friday (April 8). “I want to say to Mr. Gene Simmons that hip-hop is here forever,” Ren said. “We’re supposed to be here.” While most of the Barclays Center responded with cheers, a few sour boos could be heard throughout the…

The Answer: Yes
Former Philadelphia 76er and 9 time All-Star player also known as The Answer received his answer. The answer was YES!! Our Allen Iverson was elected this morning to the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame Sept 9th 2016! I say “our Allen” because Iverson definitely stayed true to himself throughout the course of his careers giving hope to little black corn-row rockin (yes corn rolls… not boxer braids) boys who grew up in a hard & similar fashion as he, that they may find it realistic to have an extremely successful career in the NBA. Not only did he ball but he left his mark all over the hip-hop community including music…

5 REASONS TO ATTEND THE SCM AWARDS
Last year I attended the SCM awards for the first time. I’d heard about it and even seen different things via my social media outlets but had never experienced the SCMs for myself. I had a million different things I was scheduled to do on the date the awards were set last year, and although I wanted to be there, I mentally excused myself because of my other obligations. I thought about it though and my strong belief in the power of networking (as well as my good common sense lol ) asked the question : ok bitch so where else are u gonna get Tony Neal, Bigga Rankin, Hot…
