Z. Rich – “Georgia Tech Radio Freestyle” (Video)
October 11, 2017
Ya gat dam rite… with a side of fresh oh-hells-yes! The homie TAFKAP is back! Z. Rich found a hot mic in the WREK room over at Georgia Tech and got Yellowjacket Radio buzzing with the sounds of REAL Hip-Hop.
Just a taste, but a good taste. A good minute, with NO mumbles. You can go get that somewhere else. Plenty of that.

Jazz/Soul: The Baylor Project – “Laugh And Move On” (Video)
October 11, 2017
You remember Zhané (pronounced Jah-Nay) from back in the day. Well, everybody… can get some more ‘groove your body’ music. But this is some super-warm, super-slow, squeeze-a-sweety and chill music. Jean Baylor got it done with her hubby Marcus. Awesome song and vid. Album out now (linked below).
Married musicians, vocalist Jean Baylor (formerly of the platinum-selling R&B duo Zhané) and Marcus Baylor, former drummer of the Grammy Award-winning Yellowjackets have created a captivating “project†that meets at the 3-way intersection of Jazz, Gospel and Legacy. Reminiscent of classic soul, “Laugh and Move On†speaks to the strength of the human spirit. No doubt, a very unique album that soothes the soul.

Watch The Teaser For “Star Wars: The Last Jedi” (Trailer)
October 11, 2017
The Force is strong with Rey. We saw that in Star Wars: The Force Awakens. That’s why she had to go see Luke Skywalker at the end.
Oops. Hope that was not a spoiler for you… If so, hurry up and catch-up. We have a whole ‘nother Star Wars coming in December! Watch the trailer for “The Last Jedi” (the last chapter for the Jedi??)
This teaser has gotta have viewers thinking, “This is gonna be crazy. Good and crazy!” Watch and figure out your own feelings about it though (above).

Watch The Teaser For Marvel’s “Runaways” (Trailer)
October 10, 2017
Hmmm… could be verrrry interesting! So Hulu is getting into the Marvel game. Saw this “Runaways” start playing while I was YouTube surfing, and I immediately tried to figure out whether this fits in the Mutant Universe (like what Fox and FX are trying with “The Gifted” and “Legion” and the “X-Men” movies) or the MCU (Marvel Comics Universe, with all “The Defenders” on Netflix and big screen smashes like “Avengers”). Check out the Teaser.
(Oh… and the Mutant vs. MCU thing… looks like this is something else altogether! Maybe some “Doctor Strange” mixed in with a hybrid of both.)

Eddie Griffin Calling On Psych-Medical Professionals To Declare Trump A ‘Lunatic’ (Video)
October 10, 2017
Well, damn, Eddie. How do you really feel? Pretty much like a lot of folks… but LOUDER, ROWDIER, and REALER.
Comedian Eddie Griffin is no stranger to voicing his opinion, in part 1 of “The Truth” the funnyman goes on a harangue about Donald Trump’s presidency and how him being an “adolescent adult” will likely lead to another World War. “A childish motherf**ker — I don’t know what happened, but something traumatic happened in Trump’s life around 14 or 15 years old because he’s stuck at that age,” expells Griffin. He then goes on to explain how Kim Jong-Un also had a traumatic adolescence that has led to the two of them going back and forth.
He also says “This a coup pulled off by the Russians, Trump’s motherf**kin’ treasonist ass, the alt-right, KKK, neo-nazis all conspired pulled off a coup of the United States presidency.” Watch the clip to hear him tell it like it is about what’s going on in America and why no one is speaking up.
– Vlad TV
Wow. And Eddie called every Republican, except Sen. John McCain, treasonous! Shots fired, bombs dropped!

Nia Long Just Gave Kendrick Lamar The Permission (Video)
October 10, 2017
See? Nia had no shade for K.Dot. She just did not recognize the new Compton Don… yet. But see, now that she does, she gave him PERMISSION to use her name in that next dope rhyme.
Savage Savvy!
But let’s keep rewinding at the end where lovely Ms. Long stressed that that gold-beaded dress was on a mission: To ‘hold it in and push it OUT!’ Mercy!
(So… that’s why that red carpet clip is after the jump. Yes and more yes yes, indeed!)

Snoop Dogg To Host The Reboot Of The Classic Game Show, “The Jokers Wild” (Trailer)
October 10, 2017
Okay, I’m thinking TBS might really be onto something. Snoop Dogg on TV as a game show host; not a cook or coach. And this reboot of “The Jokers Wild”… Wow! I would never have seen that coming (but now we know it’s coming, October 24th).
I remember the original game show hosted by Wink Martindale. Trust that this version will be waaay more ‘G’ (pimpin’)!

October 10, 2017
Yooooo! Pap came back and snapped on his flow for the Funk Flex show. And before you ask, he did not bring his luscious, lyrical wifey, Remy, this time. But you know he had to rep for her, too… with these “Cash Rules” BARS!

Mmmmm… ‘Slow motion for me’ Sarah! Accepting the dance challenge (slow motion, but she still keeps it ‘crunk’), Sarah’s coming at us straight outta Australia with this clip! Hyphy AND sexy, at the same damn time! Gotta love that #FilipinaGirlMagic

Being Broke: Ain’t That A Mother? (Video)
October 10, 2017
Issa Rae is always (1) looking super-cute and (2) saying something worthwhile (even when she is being funny). Here she explains to Roland Martin how she got something going when she had nothing in her pockets or going for her. Grind meets Creativity on the ultimate plane of existence; a ‘starving artist’ who found ways to feed herself… steak!
(Amazing what she did with a little lot of help from her friends.)

All rise. This November, Academy Award® winner Denzel Washington is Roman J. Israel, Esq. – watch the new trailer now. pic.twitter.com/FylAiKvzBf
— Roman J Israel, Esq (@RomanJIsraelEsq) October 5, 2017
Yeah. Denzel’s going for another gold statue on this on everything! And you know how sometimes an extended trailer just means Hollywood could not figure out how to cut the footage down to a 45-second teaser? How the extra minute or so was not necessary? Well, you will need to watch every bit of this trailer. It’s a story in and of itself. Teasing an EPIC movie experience (coming this November), featuring a very complex and tortured character that you ‘think’ you know… but you don’t. Watch. Now.
