Candidate Stacey Abrams Speaks On Her Historic Campaign To Become Governor Of Georgia (Video)
November 6, 2018
If you have done so already, thank you. But now, and in the future, I gotta keep screaming, “VOTE DAMMIT!” Because it is so important. So beyond the “your ancestors fought and died for the rights you enjoy and have a duty to maintain and fight for” rhetoric. Get in that booth and get into true governance of these United States if you are a citizen. Nothing wrong with ‘making America great’ but if you don’t VOTE then the how, who, and what of that will be determined by those who do and who they elect. Point. Blank. Period.
That said, here’s a lady who wants every Georgia voter to check her box at the polls…
Georgia Democratic gubernatorial nominee Stacey Abrams discusses her passion for criminal justice reform and her effort to get more people of color registered to vote.

Apollo Brown x Joell Ortiz – “Reflection”
October 10, 2018
Another banger from the forthcoming “Mona Lisa” LP. Apollo Brown lays a track for Joell Ortiz’s “Reflection” of a life journey that has taken him from street grind & rhyme to the Slaughterhouse, throughout the travails of the music biz and life in general. Been a hell of a ride – up, down, and both sides of the Hudson son!

Barack Obama Is Campaigning For Your Vote This November. And It Is More Important Than Ever (Video)
September 19, 2018
Heart jumped when you read the title, right? Well, of course, President Obama is not running for the White House; the November vote having no bearing on the U.S. Presidency at all. However, he does want every American to vote this Fall. And he tells you why it is so important to do so; even though it is not for him, or for a new President… It is for YOU!
If you still don’t think the midterms will affect you, Barack Obama is back to spell out just how important they are.

Especially reaching out to the youngest voters. So many did not show at the polls.

Apollo Brown x Joell Ortiz – “Timberlan’d Up” feat. Royce Da 5’9
September 19, 2018
From the forthcoming collabo LP from Apollo Brown & Joell Ortiz, “Mona Lisa” (due out October 26, 2018). This is a “Timberlan’d Up” (featuring Royce Da 5’9).
In my ears, this is what the painting Mona Lisa sounds like. The music is straightforward. That’s all I ask for when I’m the listener, so that’s all I give when I’m the creator. No bullsh!t. None. I provided the canvas, and Joell provided the honest brushstrokes. This album is a relatable body of work that everyone can listen to and appreciate. It’s growth within a gold frame. Open your ears and enjoy.â€

Science: Elon Musk’s Plans For Humans Moving From Earth To Mars Have Likely Been Thwarted (Video)
August 9, 2018
Dang it.
Musk put the numbers, plans, presentations, and MONEY on it. I was thinking futuristic ‘Martians’ would be humans – ‘terrans’ if you want to speak ‘Star Trek’ about it – in the not-so-distant future. But now we have proof of water on Mars, meaning the possibility of LIFE. And it turns out that we already have a ‘flavor’ of Trek’s prime directive (e.g. planetary protection rules) already in place… and blocking any Space X effort to terraform the Red Planet for human inhabitance. That, and the realization that what it’d take to give Mars an atmosphere is all but impossible.
Watch the vid above and follow the link below to read up.
(But hey, upside: Life on Mars already! Maybe…)

SZA – “Broken Clocks” (Video)
March 31, 2018
Besides “sexy”… the word to describe this vid is “ohhhhhhh!” It all makes sense by the end; the very end. Now, you do get the benefit of seeing SZA singing sultrily and slinking around to the beat throughout the jawn; getting her ‘summer camp sensual’ on. But the TWIST ending… Watch.

March 20, 2018
Nope. Med & Guilty Simpson did not come up with a moniker for their partnership. They just got down with some beastmode beatmakers and a couple of dope feature guests and banged out the heaters. The result: The “Loyalty” EP. Sounds right, good, and true to Hip-Hop. Dope!

Imagine A 600-Square-Foot Mansion. Look At This Tiny House (Video)
November 29, 2017
Japan’s Horinouchi House makes 600 square feet seem like a bona fide mansion.
– Digital Trends
I guess I’m weird when it comes to the desire for a big house and the acres… I actually have flights of fantasy about a tiny home; maybe on a big plot of land, but big being like an acre or less. Plus, I’d rather have one really good toilet in my tiny mansion than four mediocre ones in a big ‘un.
(Too much? Yes? Maybe?)
But check this dream house (in my mind) out. Dope!

Politics: Did Hillary Clinton Secretly Take Over The Democratic Party For Campaign 2016? (Video)
November 6, 2017
Hollllly sheeeeit! #FeelTheBern for real. Looks like there is solid testimony (in former Democratic National Chair Donna Brazile’s upcoming book) that the Democrats that backed Bernie, that threw in with Hillary to oppose the Trump campaign, have been had, got took, been bamboozled and BURNED… damn!
And the cajones of anyone who would seek to suppress the truth… chastising Donna Brazile and others who would call out the Clinton’s co-opting of the DNC as “legal but amoral” for tearing down the party… come on! Slavery was legal at one time, too. People can forgive almost anything, once we know the full truth, like former Senator Nina Turner says above.
Watch the clip.

Watch The Hatchfund Campaign Video For “Yasuke: Birth Of A Samurai” (Trailer)
September 27, 2017
Dude. DUDE! It’s legend meets line-and-ink in this animated Black Samurai joint in development. Gotta make this happen! If Tom Cruise can be “The Last Samurai,” can we please get the first Black Samurai project greenlit & funded… please?
(Watch above and see how YOU can help, too.)
Good feeling about this. Lionsgate Films AND the dude that brought the Kitana blade-swinging, head-decapitating ‘Duncan MacLeod Of The Clan MacLeod’ to life (Gregory Widen) are already attached. Dope!

Technology: Virginia Tech & Ford’s “Mystery Van” Test Drives The Concept Of Autonomous Vehicles Moving Amongst People In Real Life (Video)
September 19, 2017
Wowww! The Virginia Tech Transportation Institute and Ford tricked out a vehicle like they did for KITT on ‘Knight Rider’ back in the ’80s. A person, disguised as a seat, is doing the driving… for now. But this is more scientific / industry study than a campy action-tech series featuring ‘The Hoff.’Â Way more!
As the self-driving future nears, we’re testing the next phase in autonomous technology to learn how these vehicles can communicate with pedestrians. We worked with the Virginia Tech Transportation Institute to explore this new development, and see how pedestrians on campus reacted to a vehicle that appeared to be driving itself.
