Kera’s made her ‘Gram private by this go ’round. Go ‘knock’ (e.g. request to follow on Instagram) though. Should still be very worth it.

Pusha T Reads The Words Of Norman Brown (Video)
December 24, 2016
A true story. The words of Norman Brown, read by Pusha T. Powerful testimony on what a second chance can mean to a person and to society. A quick watch, but a good one!
Wow, 20+ years… on the way to much more in the pen… But freedom granted by President Obama gave the brother a chance to write a new ending to the book of his life. Maybe he can help others with their ‘rewrites’ too.

SkyBlew – “Revenge Of The Chicken From Outer Space!” (Prod. By Ouja Marek) [Video]
December 24, 2016
I’d be among the first to stand at the meeting and say, “I’m @ojones1… and I’m a Skyblew fiend…” But I bet I would hear a nice-sized gathering give an appreciative heartfelt Hip-Hop, “Hi @ojones1,” in return. So HA!
But, hey, I am an addict to dopeness in general, like the stuff we post on here. This time the new dopeness is SkyBlew’s video for “Revenge Of The Chicken From Outer Space!” It’s a like ‘hunhhh?’ title from the Sky Painter’s latest release “SkyBlew The Cowardly Boy!” And it’s the eclectic kind of nerdcore cool we expect from the homie SkyBlew.

Talib Kweli Speaks On His Times Meeting President Obama, Relationships With Other Artists And Much More (Video)
December 24, 2016
Tell the truth, we ‘never thought that Hip-Hop would take it this far’…
According to Talib Kweli (above), President Obama got his favorite artists together in a room to share ideas on and declare his desire for criminal justice reform to be part of his administration’s legacy… and ask for their inputs & help. Talk about a work-play moment! Imagine a concert featuring Talib, A$AP Rocky, J. Cole, Busta Rhymes, Pusha T and others? Why not? It’s the White House! But nah, country first. Still sounds like a cool meet-up.
(The story about his Grandma though… wow!)
Kweli also speaks on his next project (with Styles P), Yasiin Bey, the experience of working with Q-Tip and getting on the A Tribe Called Quest album, Jay Electronica and more. DOPE interview!

Eye Candy: Chrissy Teigen (Video)
December 23, 2016
Ha haaa! Gotta love the way Chrissy Teigen is fine with her fineness. Not really uppity about it; in fact, her funniness & finesse are key to her sexiness. Feel like (were it not for the in love with hubby John Legend thing) she’d be very approachable. And the way she is demonstrating dedication to fitness (and footlong hotdogs with fries) in this bouncy bounce back to pre-baby weight ‘workout’ video; patterned after the old school 20 Minute Workout and Kiana’s Flex Appeal (yeeeeaahh, click those titles for throwback links; and you’re welcome) …wow!
Love this. Reeeally loving Chrissy in this! Hit the jump for some choice freeze frames from this workout, too.
Marcus Garvey Inspired MLK & Mandela; Today His Son Is Asking President Obama To Pardon Him (Video)
December 23, 2016
“Today we look at another request for a presidential pardon, this one from the family of Marcus Garvey, a pioneering figure in the Black Freedom struggle in the early 20th century who inspired generations of civil rights activists around the world. In the 1920s, FBI Director J. Edgar Hoover targeted Garvey for his political activity as a leader of the Pan-African movement. Garvey was convicted in 1923 on a charge of mail fraud and sentenced to five years in jail. His charges and conviction effectively ended Garvey’s political movement and eventually led to his deportation back to Jamaica. We speak to Marcus Garvey’s son, Dr. Julius Garvey, who is leading the Justice4Garvey effort.”

Dominique Wilkins Rocks ‘2 Chainz’ In 3-Point Shootout (Video)
December 23, 2016
Three-point shoot-out between two Atlanta icons makes for one hell of a vid! Highly entertaining, and we got it cued up for you above. The Human Highlight Reel is nice shooting that pill …still! Wonder if 2 Chainz could talk him into stepping into the booth, though? He did ask about performing as part of the bet. Hmmm. NBA Ballers do be trying to rap. Hahaaa!
(The 2 Chainz rant about possible Russian involvement, too. A must see! Oh, and 2 Chainz is rocking the home crowd at Philips Arena on December 30, 2016. Ought to be a great event all-around.)

December 22, 2016
You know what? I am so sick of being modest. Hey, pretty lady…
CeeLo Green, in the guise of Gnarly Davidson, is trying to go raw (probably literally ladies) in his new “F*** Me, I’m Famous” song and video. Notice a strong George Clinton, Funkadelic pulse giving life to the beat? It’s in there. Keep playing it. Super dope. And so much pimpin’ talk in there, too. So all you ‘squares’ ought to stop what you are doing, watch, listen and learn. Haaa!
