Africans in America have been stripped of our history, culture, languages etc. yet we continue to be the most powerful influence on American culture especially to the youth. Our mission is to discuss societal change/influence of our people in a way that highlights our achievements and help understand our downfalls/mishaps. American media is designed to do the exact opposite so join us as we oppose this old norm and MAKE THE NORM; a narrative of and for Black Excellence! We are the culture that forms society.

Ep 12: We want justice and accountability or we just want Kyrie to play ball (#shutupanddribble)
“When a person can’t find a deep sense of meaning, they distract themselves with pleasure.” Viktor Frankl (Look him up!) If we continue to put "games" above the struggle of black people in America we can kiss equality goodbye.
In this episode we discuss the uprising at Capitol Hill, Whie privilege and audacity, and Kyrie Irving not showing up after the announcement that the police will not be charged and get away with another atrocity against an unarmed black man in Amerikkka.
We disagree strongly but there is wisdom in both sides of this argument so tune in.

Ep 11: Corvette Corvette Pophunna.. Is he a snitch, and was Meek contract for PoundsidePop bad?
We have all these demands as fans but when the artists carry out our wishes they get the blame and/or penalties for being a bad influence. Or maybe because they are bad influences we are not demanding but having certain expectations that they pretend they can deliver but cant because the frauding. We discuss Philly artist #Pophunnit snitching as a teenager, #Kingearner snatching honor without having honor himself. The upcoming fight between him and the Gangster #Alpo son #PaparazziPo in the ring for monet with #Gillethekid hopefully commentating.
We also have and discuss #Poundsignpop potential contract with #Meekmill #Dreamchasers #dreamchasers #Rocnation that everyone had an opinion about which turns out to be pretty standard which would have potentially worked out for the philly artist considering his mediocre catalogue to date. Do Philly rappers expect more from Meek because he from Philly also!?
