Tommie King – “Eastside” feat. CyHi The Prynce

Tommie King releases his “Eastside” single featuring CyHi The Prynce. Rising artist Tommie King and ATL mainstay CyHi The Prynce are both from the “Eastside” of Atlanta, so it was only right for the two lyricists to collaborate and create a record that represents where they come from.

More on Tommie after the jump.

Food: What’s In ‘Your Daily Bread’? (Video)

“The bread you’re buying isn’t actually real bread.”
Zooey Deschanel

So, I could file this under Activism. But it’s about our food. And I know if you like your white bread (I do), this may not make you think, “No more of that sh!t for me.” However, we should KNOW what we are eating… what choices we are making. It’s similar to the GMO debate. Whether you think that kind of food is “bad” or not, you should KNOW it’s there, so you can make an INFORMED choice.

You know what… this is going under Activism, too.

Gary Vaynerchuk Speaks On Happiness (Video)

Of course Gary Vee is gonna talk about way more than ‘happiness’ in this vlog ep, but you can tell that dude is happy on the grind. Flossing a bit about having the office in London, as he should. Happy about that and other things…

Becoming happy is, in my opinion, a factor of whether or not you are valuing someone else’s opinion more than your own…

Super happy that I got to spend some time at the new VaynerMedia office in London over the past few days. Even though I didn’t get the chance to share a ton of the content with you guys, I think you’ll enjoy this episode 😉

Snubbed By The Grammys, But The Tribe’s Quest Goes On (Video)

Ali Shaheed Muhammad and Consequence of A Tribe Called Quest, stop by to talk about their last video and their collaboration with Billionaire Boys Club. They ended up getting into the Grammy’s Snub of their last album and what that meant.

Forest Whitaker Stars in “The Forgiven” (Video)

Maaaan. I didn’t even know this movie was out about Bishop Desmond Tutu. Forest Whitaker as the Bishop, huh? Not a bad choice. Respect! Opposite Eric Bana, a Hollywood heavyweight in a heavy role. “The Forgiven” looks like a good look.

Compliment Battle: Winston Duke Vs. Letitia Wright (Video)

This is so ADORABLE! And it seems so right… that the whole ‘Wakanda Nationalism’ that “Black Panther” woke up in us – that has us celebrating each other, African Heritage, and cinematic greatness – would also provide opportunities for admirers and co-stars to lavish with over-the-top praise.

The cast of “Black Panther” read beautiful, positive tweets to each other. Winston Duke and Letitia Wright try their best to read complimentary tweets without bursting out laughing.

President Trump Wants To Create A U.S. “Space Force” (Video)

Nope. Not a joke. Yep. The President of the United States said this. Now, I am not one to clown far-out ideas. And this idea the President kind of ‘stumbled upon’ is not really all that far out. Of course, he might have a wee bit more credibility if he still had the mega-billionaire futurist Elon Musk at his side. You know, the guy who is actually putting his own money and rep on deep space travel (e.g. the SpaceX mission to Mars).

But um… they part ways a good while ago (more here).

RIP Stephen Hawking (Video)

Theoretical physicist, cosmologist, Stephen Hawking has passed away. He was 76 years old. Widely recognized as one of the brightest minds of all time, Professor Hawking lived most his life with a rare form of motor neurone disease (diagnosed at the age of 22, given only a few years to live at the time) that limited his body to a wheelchair and his speech to a voice synthesizer. But his offerings to the world would still not be bound – including his theory on black holes emitting [eventually namesaked] “Hawking radiation” and his multimillion-copy selling book, “A Brief History Of Time.”

In the late 1990s, he was reportedly offered a knighthood…
