“Why Don’t We Laugh At Death And Cry At Birth?”

07.17.09 Written by Gotty™

I try not to get too personal with my writing or let it cross over into that might not be easy for anyone to relate to. But around the Gotty™ household, this has been one of those weeks. One full of lessons, but all revolving around Jada’s line referenced in the title. One that was made fodder for writing.

“No Excuses”- President Obama’s Address To The NAACP

07.17.09 Written by David D.

Chills, fam.

Obama gets a pass for the mom jeans. Hell, Obama could have trotted out to the pitcher’s mound in Prince’s leopard assless pants and still be good in my book after this speech.

Our President spoke before the NAACP for its annual meeting and it was that old campaign-stump-speech-giving Obama that made us so excited to vote for him in the first place. You could Read the rest of this entry »

“Stating The Facts”

07.17.09 Written by S.Cadet

moo

As a native of Jersey it really pains me to see so few artists make it out of my home state. Our contributions to mainstream Hip-Hop have come few and far between since 2000 save for Just Blaze, Redman, Joe Budden and Rodney Jerkins when he’s not doing R&B. Then this dude named Mo0 pops up out of nowhere and gives me hope. Read the rest of this entry »
