A Toast To Fat Joe… Celebrating Being Self-Made (Video)
January 25, 2019
Growing up in the Mecca of Hip-Hop, The Bronx… playing games, getting into the drug game, getting out of that and into the Hip-Hop game (interesting reason, watch). Great sit-down with Joe.
Fat Joe speaks to Luc Belaire CEO Brett Berish about going broke, mismanaging money, the importance of mentorship, and all the lessons he tried to impart on Tekashi 6ix9ine.

What Is The Real Definition of Freestyle (Video)
January 25, 2019
Interesting. Freestyle vs. off-the-top rhyming. Check out this revisitation of an MTV-televised discussion about historical misunderstandings and their perspectives on what freestyle is for real. Along with perspectives on freestyling in-the-streets vs in-the-industry from today (from Papoose).
The term “Freestyle” is an integral part of Hip-Hop. But what does it mean? This piece delves into the evolution of one of Hip-Hop’s most common, yet most misunderstood terms.

Latinos Converting To Islam (Documentary)
January 25, 2019
What so-called religions that promise ‘salvation’ can truly forget is the SAVING. What the dude says in here about why he converted to Islam, how it truly SAVED him… He was not speaking of a ‘magical’ event or a sudden ‘newness’ feeling (set to orchestral music or something). Rather, he was speaking of Islam SAVING his life in an UNDERSTANDABLE way that brought joy to his soul and meaning to his life. ‘Survival mode’ to a ‘revival’ by way of the Quran.
Latinos are one of the fastest growing groups within Islam in America. VICE’s Lee Adams travels to Houston Texas, the home of America’s first Islam in Spanish center, to investigate what’s behind this phenomenon and how America’s current political climate might be related.
Another great VICE documentary.

Regina King Speaks On Being Grateful For The Gifts And Awards She Has Received (Video)
January 25, 2019
Mm mm mm. Regina King is still fine as wine! Wow. Glad she is getting even more recognition for excellence at her craft and well wishes from fans. But see, I’m kinda salty now.
Truth is, I have been crushing on Regina for most of my life… and she’s been saving that love for Sam Elliott? Sam Elliott?? Well, if she’s gonna throw ‘Road House’ in the argument, I have to understand. I was just watching that movie for the umpteenth time a couple of days ago. Still bitter though. And now I hear his voice from that loading dock fight scene (here) in my head saying, “Hot damn that hurts doesn’t it,” as I imagine him kanoodling with my sweetie Regina…
(Nah, I did not take that fantasy-into-regret moment too far at all, did I? Hahahaaa!)
Regina talks about her success during this awards season for her film ‘If Beale Street Could Talk,’ giving acceptance speeches, meeting her celebrity crush at the Golden Globes, and what she did for her birthday.

Nipsey Hussle Speaks On His ‘Side Hustle’ (Video)
January 24, 2019
Nipsey is the hustle! All sides. But that’s what we are here for; learning about the ‘Side Hustle’ of Neighborhood Nip. And we’re here for everything the homie has to share/teach.
Considering his name, it shouldn’t come as a surprise that Nipsey Hussle is always on the grind. Raised in the streets of Crenshaw, Los Angeles, the independent rapper has quickly built his own empire to last: In addition to his All Money In record label, Marathon Clothing line and retail store, Nipsey has invested in the business incubator, Vector.90, as a way to connect with next-gen geniuses. In the West Coast edition of Side Hustle, Hussle breaks down his money moves, a major business loss that turned into a lesson and why he’ll never stop betting on himself.

Crank Lucas – “Record Label Beef” (2019) [Video]
January 24, 2019
Look. If the label head has beef with them, and you are an artist on the label, then YOU got beef with them… and you BETTER spit fire at who or whatever whenever the head honcho says so! So maybe really consider staying/supporting Indie.
(Meanwhile, we should all stay supporting this fool Crank Lucas! Ha!)

Schools Are Still Separate And Unequal In The Deep South (Video)
January 24, 2019
The fight is NOT over! We just celebrated MLK Day, and sure, all the crowds were likely integrated to varying degrees… and even Vice President Mike Pence was on TV quoting King… BUT we STILL have MUCH work to do. Time to go back to school(s)… and fix this!
These students are still facing segregation and inequality every day at school, more than 50 years after Martin Luther King, Jr. and the Civil Rights movement.

January 24, 2019
Duuuuude!
I have BEEN wishing 4-IZE would touch that “Livin Proof” beat from Group Home. Preemo production with a dope azz emcee on it? C’monnnn, sonnn! I haven’t heard or seen anything this dope since when my brother BoneBreaker Jones blessed it.
The beat deserves the dopest and wittiest barz on it. Thank you, Bro4!

The Grimes Gang Faces A ‘New Enemy’ On ‘The Walking Dead’ In 2019 (Trailer)
January 23, 2019
Well, it’s not really the Grimes Gang anymore, is it?
#NoSpoilers
Have you been keeping up with AMC’s series ‘The Walking Dead’ lately? Get your binging in before it returns with new episodes in February 2019 if you have not. It is still compelling television.
The storyline took a turn I kinda figured it would eventually, but not like this. Not like this…
And isn’t that why shows of this caliber are friggin awesome?? Because even the expected is delivered in an unexpected way.
A couple of weeks and TWD is back at it. One question though: WTF is Negan doing at…

Horror: Whats Wrong With Miles? ‘The Prodigy’ Debuts February 8th (Trailer)
January 23, 2019
FINALLY!!!
Hollywood looks like they are getting the point of what a horror movie is supposed to be… the presentation of a relentless evil force that scares you to death AND fills you with despair because it/he/she is GOING to KILL you (or take your soul or whatever) and yours… and there is NOTHING YOU CAN DO ABOUT IT!
Horror is not just ‘thriller’ or ‘scare ride’ or ‘heart racing terror’… Naaaah, son! HORROR includes the realization that the very, very horrible thing is coming… for YOU. Think ‘Dracula’ at your front door, the devil in ‘The Exorcist’ or the Damien ‘Omen’ franchise…
OHHHH… and speaking of kids, bad kids, and the very bad things they can do… “The Prodigy” trailer is looking like some true HORROR! Yeezus West this kid looks f**ked up in the best scary movie way!
What’s wrong with Miles? From the producer of Exorcism of Emily Rose comes a new vision of unimaginable horror. Watch the full trailer for The Prodigy, starring Taylor Schilling and Jackson Robert Scott, in theaters February 8.
#MilesIsDangerous #WhatsWrongWithMiles
(All that said, I really don’t like watching horror movies. I just really appreciate it; like other movie genres, when the films stay true to their school’s rules.)
