Ice-T – “Too Old For Dumb Sh*t” (Video)
September 17, 2019
If for nothing else, watch for respect for the OG Ice Motherf**cking T and his ride-or-die Eye Candy wifey Coco (woohooooo, dayum)! While he is hollering that he’s “Too Old 4 Dumb Sh*t”… Ice will put in the work if you bring the nonsense to him.
(Making him have to put family time on hold. Yeah, a sucka is gonna have to pay for that ‘Dumb Sh*t’ for real!)

September 17, 2019
Sharper than Shannon with a Black & Mild
Daaayummm! It don’t get Sharper than that! The lyrical skillz of 4-IZE are infinite. Watch for that, and keeping watching through the end to see how you can join in supporting Dres Tha Beatnik in his personal fight against kidney disease.

The Good People – “Sidewalk Barbecue” feat. A-F-R-O x Termanology (Video)
September 16, 2019
When emcees like Term & A-F-R-O put it down, and I come across it, I feel compelled to put it up on here. Because DOPENESS! Plus Dub MD dropped the gem right into my inbox. So there’s that… PLUS dope!
“Sidewalk Barbecue” is a summertime banger! The latest single from The Good People [Emskee & Saint] features fiery guest appearances from A-F-R-O and Termanology. Shot and directed by Shock B, this visual is a good-time street cookout featuring each of them sharing libations, meats and bars. “Sidewalk Barbecue” appears on the recently released “The Summer EP” out now via Below System Records. “In the same spirit as Main Source’s “Live At The Barbecue” we wanted to do a joint with some of today’s top spitters. If you notice the song has the same structure as “Live At The Barbecue” four 16 bar verses with a 4 bar hook in between.”

September 16, 2019
Ohhhhh, so Blctxt is doing his different thing now… a photography thing, too, now… we knew about the music, but let’s learn about everything. Courtesy of the homie O-Diesel.
Representing Clayton County Blctxt joined me on the Roundtable to talk new music. The Working Class Music artist has just dropped a new album “Nothing Takes” where he talks about growth and following his creative spark. We also discuss how he started taking photos on his phone to now having his photographs in accredited Art Shows. A great conversation watch, share, and enjoy!

Like the late great Nipsey Hussle might say: Blctxt “Is Nothing Like These Other Rap N**gas!” Good interview.

Politics: Jeff Johnson Leads A Power-Packed Panel Of Pundits In Discussing Today’s Black Agenda And Campaign 2020 (Video)
September 16, 2019
This feels like what a TV station calling itself REVOLT should be doing with its platform, at least in significant part. Very varied viewpoints from and in the Black community are presented and explored here, which is a good thing. Folks (e.g. we and the people who want our votes) need to understand that we are not a monolith, a block, a sector, a checklist item, etc. for the campaign… nor do we necessarily ‘win’ when ‘our candidate’ (whatever that means) wins.
Go get a snack and a beverage, and come back focused. ‘Bout to be some real talk. Necessary talk!
T.I., Killer Mike, Candace Owens, Steven Pargett Of Trap The Vote, Katrina Pierson, & Tamika D Mallory have an open and honest conversation about politics, and the culture we live in today.
– REVOLT TV
Be forewarned: You will get agitated and frustrated. Hang in there. Especially because there is thoughtful, useful insight shared EVERY TIME we get a chance to hear from Killer Mike. Much respect and respek on the name Michael Render!

No need to fight the urge to yell, “How Brooklyn is he?” Because here’s the answer in lyrical form. Audio-visually presented most dopely!
NatStar – “False” (Video)
September 13, 2019
Hookah at the house in the studio… NOT “False!” I don’t even do that like that, but that… BOSS! Even when in chillax mode, NatStar’s grind is harder than most. To think otherwise… is “False!”
Catch that WAV (because audio file… get it?) on Spotify via the link below; after you peep the visuals above.

Jidenna – “Tribe” (Video)
September 13, 2019
Crew? Click? Set? Naaaahhhh… Jidenna is claiming none of those. His ‘fam’ is closer than all that. Call them “Tribe.” Bet they will outlast all those other labels. Repping from America to Africa and back, the J is riding out to this single to start the “85 To Africa” journey!

Joyner Lucas x Tory Lanez – “Suge” (Remix)
September 12, 2019
Mad that Joyner Lucas & Tory Lanez tore up that “Suge” track? Why? Don’t be. DaBaby did what he did on it. Then Lucas and Lane went BAD on that joint like a young LL (“I’m Bad!”).
