Dear #BurnYourNikes Movement, Nike Doesn’t Mind At All (Video)
September 6, 2018
If you feel like wasting some keystrokes, comment on the next vid you see posted by a ‘Nike burner’ that Nike doesn’t give not one aglet about #BurnYourNikes
(Oh, and an ‘aglet’ is that sheath or tip at the end of your shoelace. You knew that? Okay cool.)
See, this whole ‘we stand by Kaep‘ stance Nike is putting forth is still a BUSINESS move at its core. We know that, right? Right?? It’s a business move that folks (read: the majority of people that Nike wants to buy its products) who are cool with #TakeAKnee will vote in favor of… with their purchasing power.
This is why Nike doesn’t care if you set your shoes on fire.
– VICE News Tonight
Just like choosing to ‘vote’ for (buy from) Burger King because you like your burgers flame-broiled, or your way, or whatever the other fast food joints ain’t doing. Or vice versa.
And for folks who decide to NOT buy from them anymore, Nike is wagering (i.e. taking a strategic business risk) there will be few enough of them to not matter (to its BUSINESS). Buuuut… all this could make for some cool counter-hashtaggery to make the new ‘Nike haters’ hot though…
#KaepHatersDontMatter
Nah…
#GoOnAndBurnYourGear #NikeAlreadyHasYourMoney
Better…
#KaepGotPaid #NikeUsedMoneyYouPaid #MoneyYouJustSetAblaze
BARZ!

KevOnStage Explains “Why Nike Ain’t Worried” About The Boycott (Video)
September 5, 2018
He’s got a point. Several points. And anybody ‘big mad’ enough about Colin Kaepernick being a spokesperson for Nike’s new marketing campaign can have several seats… while we #TakeAKnee
(And they can grab a cape, because when they realize that Kaep will get a check while they rip/burn/etc. products on which they’ve already spent hard-earned money on, they will be SUPER MAD!)

August 30, 2018
Okay, so Bill is roundabouts my age. And it shows in his rants (we old, and old-school man). it might get a li’l uncomfortable for some millennial new school parenting advocates out there to watch his clip, but here it is.

Kanye West Tears Up On Live Radio. Takes A Moment… (Video)
August 30, 2018
You know. There were comments on the ‘Tube to bear this out… maybe Yeezy needs to break from all this. For just a while at least. It’s one thing to be a true ‘original thinker’ or societal outsider or enigma. But when that ‘being yourself’ breaks you down like this, whether we judge it to be ‘real enough’ or not #BreakTime

Speaking On The State Of Hip-Hop, Darryl ‘DMC’ McDaniels Raw & Uncensored (Video)
August 28, 2018
Okay. Run DMC’s Darryl McDaniels just went the hell off! Rightfully so. Hip-Hop is definitely different today, but we had our bullsh!t going on back then, too. I do agree, wholeheartedly, that whatever was wrong then or now… was WRONG! Nonsense, violence, not a good policy (word to Heavy D and RIP).
Hip-Hop is our Nation, our Community and Culture. We ought to act accordingly. Listen to DMC.

Comedian Chelsea Handler Focuses On Political Activism (Video)
August 28, 2018
Interesting. Comedians, esp. when there’s an “easy target” in the White House, usually make fun of political folly. And Chelsea did that. But she is really moving into the ‘woke’ lane to ride that for a long while… at least until President Trump and his ilk are out.
Comedian-turned-activist Chelsea Handler shares the moment she recognized her White privilege and dishes on exactly how she wants to see Donald J. Trump humiliated.

Black Thought Really Wants You To ‘Visit Philadelphia’ (Video)
August 23, 2018
The City Of Brotherly Love’s own, Tarik “Black Thought” Trotter definitely has Roots (had to do it) in the hometown, so there is a bias. But that does not mean the case he makes in this ‘Visit Philadelphia’ series, coaxing all to come, is not valid. You already know about the cheesesteaks and global eats from an earlier post (here), but watch up (above, continuing after the jump) and see more proof!
