Obama Gives Speech at Howard University
Graduating from college is always a momentous occasion, but the Howard University class of 2016 had a commencement ceremony that was certainly one for the books. The iconic HBCU welcomed an estimated crowd of 15,000, which included 2,300 graduates and one very inspiring commencement speaker. President Barack Obama took to the podium to receive and honorary Doctorate of Science degree before addressing the bright-eyed group of future leaders with words of inspiration and encouragement that will surely live with them for the duration of their lives. “Be confident in your heritage. Be confident in your Blackness,” the President told the graduates. “Create your own style, set your own standard of…

Lee Daniels Drops Out of Richard Pryor Biopic
Oscar nominated filmmaker Lee Daniels became the barer of bad news Sunday, May 9, when it was announced that he was abandoning his role at the helm of the long anticipated Richard Pryor biopic. Sources for the 56-year-old executive producer of Fox‘s “Empire” cited scheduling difficulties as the reason he will be side stepping the project. Past Daniels production partner, the Weinstein Company, have confirmed that they are in search of replacement to begin shooting on the film in October. The making of a biopic on the legendary Pryor has been in the works for over a decade, dating back to the comedian’s own participation in the prospective flick before…

[Single] Desiigner “Moon People”
Brooklyn rapper and G.O.O.D. music’s newest kid on the block, Desiigner is definitely making a name for himself and getting people talking. Back in December, Desiigner dropped his breakout track “Panda,” which shot up the Billboard 100 chart, ultimately claiming the number one spot. However, Desiigner’s short-lived success has also been mired by plenty comparisons to Atlanta-based rapper, Future. Despite the controversy surrounding him, Desiigner has now released new single, “Moon People,” as a follow-up to his debut single. Last week, Desiigner visited Tim Westwood in London and dropped a freestyle for his fans. Little did they know, the Brooklyn rapper was giving fans a tease of his newest single,…

Soulja Boy Could Win a GRAMMY for Beyonce’s “Lemonade” Album
Our deep dive into the credits for Beyoncé‘s liner notes turned up some gems, but I was particularly interested in Soulja Boy’s appearance because it illustrates just how strange the twists and turns of music industry fate can be. One day Soulja Boy is sitting at home, being a MySpace legend, and the next he’s got a shot at a GRAMMY for writing on Beyoncé’s album without lifting a finger, or a vocal chord. To walk through this quickly, “songwriting” is the art of crafting melodies and words for a song. Anyone who writes the words that appear in a song (and isn’t a ghostwriter) gets a songwriter credit, which…

Birdman Confronts Hot Boy Turk At “Respek” Video Shoot?
Earlier this week, Bryan “Birdman” Williams shot the video for his new song “Respek”. Hot Boy Turk appeared on the set, where it looks like some sort of uncomfortable conversation took place. Turk sued Birdman and Cash Money for over $1 million, and they supposedly settled that dispute even though they hadn’t spoken face to face in almost 13 years. Who knows what this is about. Maybe it was money since Turk had to start a GoFundMe page to help pay off $5 million in bills. But Birdman has been demanding his props after a now infamous interview with Charlamagne and The Breakfast Club. Birdman is spinning the viral video…

Woop Catches Two Years in Jail
Florida Rapper Woop has been sentenced to two years in jail for throwing or shooting a missile at a building or vehicle, according to the Florida Department of Corrections website. His current release date reads May 10, 2018. Back in December of 2015, the rapper born Charles Ford was arrested in a brutal robbery on an Orange County apartment complex. In the apartment where a 22-year-old guy was beaten so badly he’d need surgery, SWAT found numerous guns and 11 people, including two women and a four-year-old child. Investigators believed the crime was “gang-related.” Contact a criminal defense attorney Buffalo Grove if you have been arrested for any criminal offence. Securing…

Denzel Washington Event Raises $17M Museum
When you have as much star power and influence as Denzel and Pauletta Washington and it’s put to good use, amazing things happen. While Barack Obama was giving his final speech at the White House Correspondents’ dinner Saturday night, the Washingtons were throwing a lavish party with some of Hollywood’s biggest names, all in support of the Smithsonian National Museum of African American History and Culture, which opens later this year. The fundraiser was an effort to secure the final monies needed for the museum, and needless to say, when the Washingtons put out a call, their friends have no problem donating. The museum’s total cost amounts to $540 million,…
