Happy Birthday To The Greatest: Jim Brown
Jim Brown is one of my heroes & easily one of the greatest NFL players of all time. I don’t just admire Jim Brown because of his physical prowess as an athlete back in his playing days, but also how he carries himself as a man & what he stood for. Many black athletes today can learn many lessons from Jim Brown & if they had the opportunity I’d encourage them to seek his counsel. Pay attention to his interview & check out more videos after the jump….

William ‘The Refrigerator’ Perry was one of the most exciting pro players to watch in the 80s. It’s sad to see how much he’s dealing with today. Check out this story ESPN ran not too long ago about how he’s been holding up as of late.
Janet Jackson Talks About Low Self Esteem & Her Years Of Self Inflicted Abuse (Video)
It never ceases to amaze me how the majority of beautiful women tend to be the ones with the most low self-esteem issues. In an interview that’s scheduled to air on Dateline NBC at 7pm Sunday, Janet Jackson discusses her years of dealing with self-inflicted abuse because she thought she wasn’t attractive enough. Crazy right? Sheehz!
Dirty Money: Last Ride From London (Video)
Honestly I think the Diddy-Dirty Money album wasn’t that bad of an album, but the primary thing that was distracting on it was Diddy himself. I didn’t think Puffy’s vocals was necessary on a few of the songs. Yeah they could have needed Diddy’s starpower to get more media interest in the group, but he could have pulled his presence back a little on some songs. Maybe he wanted to find a way to make sure the group succeeded from a publicity standpoint or still wanted to be an artist as well. I don’t know but I think Dirty Money could have succeeded without them being Diddy-Dirty Money if Puff played the back more from a vocalists perspective. In any case I found this interview on the web & thought it was interesting because the focus was on the female members of the group & not just Diddy. Not only did I dig the way it was shot, but I enjoyed the honest & open answers the ladies gave about the time leading up to the project & their relationship with each other.

‘Naughty By Nature’ Says There Are More Artists Today Than Fans (Video)
Legendary rap group ‘Naughty By Nature’ appeared on 50’s site for an interview celebrating over 20 years in the game & one of the key points Treach made in the interview is something that I’ve been saying for a while now. There are simply more artists than there are fans these days. Everyone & their mother raps or sings in 2011. I’ve been in radio since 1990 & never have I’ve seen the climate this bad where EVERYONE wants to be an artist. More often than not people don’t understand the amount of work & sacrifice it takes to be successful in it. Most people are not cut out for this business so if you’re not in it for longevity like Naughty By Nature continues to be for over 20 years then its going to be a disappointing ride for anyone jumping in for the wrong reasons.
Taraji P. Henson Appears On The Chelsea Lately Show (Video)
It’s hard for me to believe that Taraji P. Henson is single. She’s not only attractive, but in the majority of interviews I’ve seen her in she’s always displayed a very down to earth personality. It’s rare when you find women who have a sense of humor, great head on her shoulders, & still attractive. Hopefully she’ll shoot a movie in Atlanta soon so I can make my way to the set. I’m only joking. Sort of. Ummm well…… maybe I’m not.
