Lil Wayne The Carter III Review
Let it be known that I am far from one of these Lil Wayne fanatics who hang onto every word that he says. I am often disappointed with the state of Hip-Hop or mainstream Hip-Hop because there is a difference. I am still feeling some type of way that Common [...]

Misunderstood: A Hustler’s Tale
Driven by dreams of material things
Cant blame em; on TV that’s all he seen
Takes more than a reckless spirit
To build a crack empire
Learn the ways of the street fast
Or your life will soon expire
Fiends is clickin’ to what they got on 43rd
So you set up shop next to the woods on 45th
House [...]

The NYPD should be ashamed of themselves. Photos have surfaced on the internet showing Nicole Paultre – Bell in handcuffs next to Al Sharpton after being arrested yesterday for a peaceful protest in memory of the late Sean Bell.

What it means to be a Nigger continued!
Rewind the clocks back before the Civil Rights Era, after the Red Scare, where if you were communist you were a nigger. No, I am speaking of World War II, a defining moment in this country’s history where we joined forces with our allies overseas and toppled the [...]

Food for thought:
Do not believe everything that you read in the newspapers, hear on the radio, or see on television or youtube. I was browsing through a forum and I read the title “Oprah denies Christ, Trouble for Obama”! I quickly clicked the link because I was curious as to where this information could be [...]

Just My Thoughts
As the days turn and the clock spins I wonder what’s the struggle
What’s the plight for black men?
Are we to to fade off, lost in the abyss?
Or rise strong like our ancestors did
Kings or Pharaohs
On TV sometimes we act like the emperor with no clothes
Ashamed
Never
More like excited
Cause damn are we clever
I walk into [...]
