God Friended Me: Behind The Scenes (Series Teaser)

Hmm. “God Friended Me” seems intriguing, but I was on the fence. But hold the phone: I now HAVE to watch this… Because my cousin Michele shared it in her timeline like ‘recommended’… AND because this is a Greg Berlanti production (like Arrow, Flash, DC’s Legends Of Tomorrow… you get it). THIS is exactly why I watch credits!!

A young atheist is sent on a series of adventures after accepting an unexpected friend request from God. Take a peek behind the scenes at CBS’ new fall drama, God Friended Me.

Ah, Joe Morton has this new gig. Moving on since Scandal. Cool.

Corey Holcomb Speaks On How Hard It Was To See Kevin Hart Go Through Marital Issues And How Easy It Is To Cheat (Video)

Always great to catch Corey Holcomb on-air with interviews like this. For some reason, I had dismissed this one until now because I thought it was a Breakfast Club ‘throwback’ from way back. Still fresh though. And Corey, though toned down a touch, is still giving Yee and Envy that raw commentary.

– Breakfast Club Power 105.1 FM

I don’t think they ‘got it’ at the end when Corey was ‘pulling their leg’ a bit at the end. Still a great watch though. But why did he have to go in on President Obama like that though… because Corey, man. That part.

Everybody… make some noise! And if you were around when Kid ‘N Play were “Gettin Funky” and balancing dance moves and boom bap, prepare to go full ‘stan’ mode (like N.O.R.E.) for this episode of Drink Champs.

Luenell Questioned Snoop Dogg On His “Ain’t No Fun If The Homies Can’t Have None” Lyric (Video)

Okay, Luenell came with the realest point with that talk about Snoop’s “Ain’t No Fun.” One of the funnest songs ever, as eff’d up as its concept is… But see, I don’t have a daughter. If you do, you might feel a bit different (or not).

Luenell shared her thoughts on our interview with 2Pac’s rape accuser Ayanna Jackson and the famed comedian questioned whether Jackson was “led to the wolves” after 2Pac left her in the room with his friends. She added that when it comes to men passing their girl around, Luenell says she asked Snoop Dogg about making it cool with “Ain’t No Fun.”

Speak English For What? ‘Real’ Americans Should Be Speaking Natives’ Tongues, Or Spanish (Video)

So the cops can harass you for NOT bothering anyone, just because you (NOT speaking to them) are conversing in a language they do not understand? I’m asking… And above, someone answers.

Agree or agree to disagree, no motherf**king body can motherf**king tell you what language you must use to speak to each other; or use speaking an ‘unacceptable’ language to profile you. Plus, English does not have a strong an argument for being the ‘rightful’ language of ‘real’ Americans. Watch.

I gotta admit: I am down with ‘The Breakdown’ that Francis Maxwell delivers above and how he delivered that sh!t. Straight RAW! And I think I heard some ‘French’ in his rant, too (hahaa).

Wood Harris Speaks On Hollywood, Hooping, And Being On ‘Above the Rim,’ ‘The Wire,’ And ‘The Breaks’ (Video)

Hey, that is some real talk about the way those actors needed to ‘move like the 90s’ to the Golden Era music… Glad Wood Harris was on ‘The Breaks’ (on VH1) and on-site to push for that realism.

Few actors hold it down for Hip-Hop culture as much as Wood Harris. From his early days on the silver screen alongside Tupac in Above the Rim and starring in Dame Dash’s Harlem classic Paid In Full, to his history-making role as Avon Barksdale in HBO’s The Wire, Harris has been in the spotlight for more than two decades.

On the latest episode of GGN, Harris got stoned with Uncle Snoop in the studio and told stories about making it in the movie industry from humble beginnings on the West Side of Chicago, impressing directors with his skills on the basketball court and, after chopping it up with Bishop Magic Don Juan on an impromptu phone call, broke down Hollywood’s accent-hiding secrets (we’re looking at you, Idris).

So grab your popcorn, fire up your favorite strain, and take a seat alongside The DoggFather for a conversation with one of the industry’s hardest working thespians. And for more Wood Harris, be sure to check him out alongside Michael B. Jordan in the upcoming Creed 2.

Good interview. And you know the Stormy Fronts weather report is always a good look on GGN!
