Controversial Sports Commentator Jemele Hill Always Had A Strong Sense Of Who She Was, Before And After Her Time At ESPN (Video)

Above: Jemele Hill speaks on what it felt like leaving ESPN after more than a decade. There really wasn’t a mourning period. More than just the controversial Tweets and stands she took. By the time President Trump came ‘sniffing & riffing’… It had been time.

In this clip, Jemele Hill speaks on having three years left on her contract and being bought out via an offer. Hill noted that things weren’t already going right on ‘Sportscenter’ by the time the issues with Donald Trump happened, so she didn’t have plans on coming back to the show.

Hmmm… forgot about the production stuff she got into. Dope!

How Much Do You Know About Soul Food? (Video)

Ohhhh… The series is called ‘Black 2 Life’… like in ‘Back 2 Life’ by Soul II Soul. And this is on soul food. Hope you enjoyed some good traditional New Year’s peas & rice and greens and pork (for those that partake) by the way.

For the record, I disagree with several of these so-called ‘correct’ answers though.

“Weird Al” Yankovic Vs. The World’s Hottest Hot Wings (Video)

Please tell me you remember the Michael Jackson song parody Weird Al did, “Eat It” (an off-take of MJ’s “Beat It”). They should be playing that here.

“Weird Al” Yankovic is the king of parody songs, with a multi-decade career that includes four Grammys, countless Top 40 hits, and a long list of live shows, including 2019’s Strings Attached Tour. But how is he with spicy food? Find out as the “White & Nerdy” icon takes on the vegan wings of death in a very special Hot Ones season finale. As the Scovilles mount, Weird Al shares classic anecdotes about meeting Sir Paul McCartney and Michael Jackson, getting co-signed by Kurt Cobain, and inventing the infamous Twinkie wiener sandwich.

A-Boogie | Freestyles On Flex | Freestyle #120 (Video)

Okay, so we finally hear it from A-Boogie. Now we know for certain that opportunity for bar spitters to hop on a track, that Flex has been talking up, with him is authentic. Pretty decent barz on this ep. Watch and see if you agree, but I think he channeled Dej Loaf on that ‘Try Me’ style change-up in this. Listen for it.

Interesting.
