If you say you’re going to do something, then you need to do it.” Off-Topic – Guest on the show and taking shots for the uglies Talking points: Black Culture is the problem Scott Rhodes on FB produced a video that blamed black culture for the problems within the black community. He went on to talk about our music being the anchor to our problems because rappers are making music about the very things that hold our people down. At the end of the day Scott was blurting out statistics that had nothing to do with the message he was trying to deliver. Of course KingDevDoe had some things to say about the stupidity he was talking. Statistics and selective rap lyrics don’t justify any agenda you are trying to push white boy. Understand that not ever stepping foot into the black community and even relatively trying to explain what’s going on amongst our people

Peace, Love, and all that good stuff! WoS – Kafkaesque – Marked by senseless, disorienting, often menacing complexity QoS – “Try to learn something about everything and everything about something.” Off-Topic – The 4th Talking points: What it really means “What, to the American slave I your 4th of July? I answer; a day that reveals to him, more than all the other days of the year, the gross injustice and cruelty to which he is the constant victim. To him your celebration is a sham; your boasted liberty, and unholy license; your national greatness, swelling vanity; your sound of rejoicing are empty and heartless; your denunciation of tyrants brass fronted impudence; your shout of liberty and equality, hallow mockery; your prayers and hymns, your sermons and thanks-giving’s, with all you religious parade and solemnity, are to him, mere bombast, fraud, deception, impiety, and hypocrisy—a thin veil to cover up crime which would disgrace a nation of savages. There is not a nation on the earth guilty of practi

Peace, Love, and all that good stuff! WoS – Disfranchise – to deprive of a franchise, privilege, or right QoS – “Diversity and inclusion, which are the real grounds for creativity, must remain at the center of what we do.” Marco Bizzarri Off-Topic – Hy-Deia’s New project Brewin Talking points: The Disenfranchisement of Women in American Ideology Women as a collective are completely overlooked as it pertains to skill in American society. Especially black and brown women of color who have to go twice as hard as their white counter parts to even land jobs in American society. This disenfranchisement goes back generations and has been fought against for generations. Today we need to start and push the revolution toward advocating more for our women’s inclusion into male dominated roles. These are the real grounds for creativity and will ultimately maximize the content we create and put out. Media, podcasting, sports, television, anchors, modeling, public speaking… is all examples of jobs women are kept a

Peace, love, and all that good stuff! WoS – Utopia – any visionary system of political or social perfection QoS – “It takes courage to grow up and become who you really are.” Off-Topic – Why so Emotional? Talking points: Utopian Bubble -There are still people in this world who detach themselves and all around them from reality, living within a personal utopian bubble. Completely eliminating reality. Giving off the perception that their world is perfect. -A bubble is a perfect way to describe their utopian perception because a bubble is very fragile yet transparent. It is not sturdy so it can easily be disturbed, which is why they have to be “careful” and extremely cautious as to whom they choose to let in. -From the inside out their perception on outsiders is very skewed because of the unclear transparency of the bubble. It leads them to believe that imperfection is a trait of only the outsiders. Your Identity -Identity is an endless timeless struggle we face as a people. Not only do we struggle wi

Peace, Love, and all that good stuff! WoS- Excogitate - To study intently and carefully in order to grasp or comprehend fully. QoS - "Trust your own judgement, live with it, and love it." Growing up in Rochester, New York Meshiko Brown naturally found his way into the music arena. As an artist he goes by Magic Gretzky. He is the last child of 17 kid’s total, 12 sisters and 5 brothers. As it pertains to music, his career began around the age of six years old. He says music has always been a hobby for him due to the fact that his brothers and sisters were so heavily involved. As a kid he watched how involved his siblings were into music that helped groom his craft. One thing that gave him inspiration to becoming a musician was the fact that he was always told that he sucked at making music. He is a musician that creates a certain type of music that touches base on mainly on how he feels about commodity that’s happening in his life, and taking place in the real world or just simply how he feels. He creates t

Peace, Love, and all that good stuff! WoS – Cynosure – Something that strongly attracts attention by its brilliance, interest, etc. QoS – “If my strength intimidates you, I hope you realize that’s a weakness of yours.” Off-Topic – Royal Wedding | Lauryn Hill Talking points: Women in America | Why aren’t powerful women more accepted in society? When I speak on powerful women I don’t mean it from an angle of strength or even a independence, I mean it from a decision making standpoint. Men literally eat up all of the decision-making power and women sit in the shadows balancing their day-to-day schedule out. Why is this a thing that we’ve come to solidify in American culture... or even world culture? I understand men have always controlled who did what and set the standards on what qualifies a person to perform a specific job or duty. With that in mind and the world making leaps closer to a more open work force and leadership why do we still look down upon women being in powerful decision making position

Peace, Love, and all that good stuff! WoS – Lollapalooza – An extraordinary or unusual thing, person, or event; an exceptional example or instance QoS – “Innovation distinguishes between a leader and a follower.” Off-Topic – Clean Sweep 6/16/18 | A Divi9 Yoni Experience Talking points: Stereotypes - Black men get money and marry a white woman - Black women hate white women? - Black man are born subconsciously wanting white women - Black actin white - Its easier for black men to date white women as opposed to a black women dating a white man Stereotypes are something that has dictated so much within society, especially within the black community. We are faced with the most stereotypes that they have come to define us before we even open our mouths to speak. And even if we did speak the first thing we say that pairs a said stereotype them we are what they believe us to be. We move through life trying not to fall victim to the various stereotypes and statistics that come with being black in Amer

Peace, Love, and all that good stuff! WoS – Grok – To understand thoroughly and intuitively QoS – “Responsibility is the price of freedom.” Off-Topic – How long before you start payin these bills ? Talking points: This is America x Childish Gambino (Video) → Thoughts? Woke Childish Gambino and his non-black GF/Wife Childish Gambino has a non-black other have and questions have been swirling around him being pro black and having a non-black GF/Wife. The question is can you be pro black with a non-black partner. Most people have said no you cannot and others have said yes you can. Why is it that here in America we cant be one thing if we don’t full between a certain set of guidelines set by woke America. I’ve also seen comments on Gambino being labeled as “weird” and black women not liking him because of his weirdness. In addition to the only reason why they care now is because he got money! Why can’t he just be attracted to whom he is attracted to? Lets talk weird mannerisms and their acceptance.

Peace, Love, and all that good stuff! WoS – Pococurante – A careless or indifferent person QoS – “We shine because they hate us, floss 'cause they degrade us We tryna buy back our 40 acres” Off-Topic – Recap on the vision of the show Talking points: Free Thought What do you think free though is? What do you think kanye is trying change when he mentions free thought? Kanye's idea of free thought is the idea that our people wont let slavery mentally control us anymore. These days people continue to allow slavery control them mentally and lack ability to freely think. This doesn't mean we let people talk crazy but we change the way we process their rhetoric. Kanye's voice reaches to far and wide for us let allow the other side to take him. The Black delegation will not trade or release him! Why do people idolize celebrities to the point of seeing no fault in the regular person? → People tend to engage in celebrity debates while defending their actions as if they know them personally. Completely nega

You guys go out to dinner and have a great conversation. As dinner comes to an end and your date ask you to buy two take out dinners for her kids, but you say no. She gets an attitude and maintains it for the rest of the night, so you cut the date short. | Is it wrong to not buy her kids (who you’ve never met) dinner? | Was she asking for too much, too soon? Forgiveness “When we refuse to give ourselves permission to be anything but perfect—As if failure did not bring its own lessons in life—we certainly are not able to forgive anyone else.” → What lessons have you learned from fail

Peace, Love, and all that good stuff! WoS – Omnishambles – a situation, especially in politics, in which poor judgment results in disorder or chaos with potentially disastrous consequences QoS – “Education is not preparation for life; education is life itself.” Off-Topic – would you allow your child to pull up to prom in a casket and Hurst? Talking points:  Starbucks, LA Fitness and other corporate and small businesses or organizations within the United States that hire or have knowledge of racist employees. Thoughts on what has been going on? Three things in particular I want to cover; the first being the way in which Starbucks handled the situation. The second being the story before the recording started. The third being the way in which black men interact with police officers when approached, the unspoken rules of engagement. →Starbucks handled racial discrimination the best way they possible in these trump times. Fire the racist bigot and to add onto the push toward change close down all stores

On this week's show we got into each of our craziest conspiracy theories that we believe to be true.
