Whenever I think of God's sense of humor, I think of things like a couple with the respective surnames of Burger and King coming together in matrimonial bliss. That's exactly what happened when Illinois childhood sweethearts, Joel Burger and Ashley King's engagement went viral. Shortly after, Burger King decided to…
I was going to post a link to the CDQ version of the song but it looks like its been pulled from all outlets since its not available for sale on iTunes and streaming on Spotify.
Ya'll remember the McDonald's Big Mac commercial jingle? I (barely) do since I was a young cheeks when those commercials were poppin'. It was the infamous, “two all beef patties, Special Sauce, lettuce, cheese, pickles, onions on a sesame seed bun.” Which seems like a lot of ingredients when you say them all and it…
Raise your hand if you need any other reason to hate Comcast other than it being Comcast?
Remember that recent debate between 2 Chainz and Nancy Grace about marijuana legalization? Well, clearly the natural follow-up to that is to dive headfirst into politics. And apparently, that's what 2 Chainz wants to do, according to his statement to The Atlanta-Journal Constitution Monday.
Apparently on an episode of The View (they still make those?), Mike Huckabee appeared and theorized in his book that Jay-Z was pimping out Beyoncé. As in, Bey's sexual expression freedom was not because she's an independent woman and all'at, but because Jay was making her do something she apparently doesn't need to…
There are not enough superlatives to describe the work of Toni Morrison, America's greatest living novelist. The Bluest Eye isn't just a great book, it's there with Citizen Kane, What's Going On, the iPhone, and Bria Myles as one of the best and most important artistic triumphs of the last century. She is your…
We might as well get the obvious joke out of the way. My man has 99 iProblems and a bitch aint one.
So, amongst the raw frustration of the war against our Black brethren/sistren at the hands of police, is the frustration surrounding our portrayal in the media. Black victims accused of crimes unrelated to the police-driven murder, "no angel" labels, and simple/universal hand-gestures labeled as gang signs, all…
Who knew T-Pain could actually sing? I'm sure of you did. But some of us didn't. Either way, I already enjoying people singing ignorant things, but there's a special enjoyment given that this is T-Pain, a man for whom the industry that now THRIVES on auto-tune seems to have left him behind.
Chief Keef was recently dropped from Interscope. Here's a list of things somehow less predictable than that predictable-ass news.
This past Saturday, a riot broke out during the New Hampshire Pumpkin Festival, resulting in police releasing tear gas and pepper spray into the crowd. Expletives (and allegedly, beer cans and bottles) were hurled at police. Arrests were made. Somehow, though, no one was killed for it. Maybe the true magic safety…
"The South American Goliath birdeater (real name!) has a footlong legspan and two-inch fangs. Its body is about the size of a fist and it is the largest spider in the world—that we know of."
Social media was all aflutter when ELLE Magazine's (Blackity Black Black Black ya'll) fashion editor, Danielle Prescod took it upon herself to take a ride in a Delorean and claim Timberlands as the new hot "IT" winter boot. Okay, there was no Delorean involved. But, it should've been.
You might remember Kyla McMullen's original list of 73 sexy sistas in science, which won points for alliteration and for exposing us to so many Black women in labcoats, a strange fetish of Damon's.
Raven-Symoné recently waxed poetically about labels on Oprah's "Where Are They Now?" special, and has (old) Black America in a tizzy.
At this point, providing commentary on police fuckery is pointless. We all know that police are violating as many rights as they're maintaining they uphold. Also, miss me with the good cops story. I'm sure there are some guys out there doing their job…until shit hits the fan and its "them" (aka the the citizens) or…
Wisconsin man Dale Decker is pretty much on self-inflicted house arrest because he suffers from persistent genital arousal syndrome, which occurred after he slipped a disc while standing up. Talk about a FREAK accident. Hey yooooo!
Apparently, Tyler Perry announced at his 45th birthday party that he was expecting his first child. Naturally, I figured this meant a mini-Tyler Perry would debut in nothing less than film fashion.
No, they're really engaged. Like, seriously. But, we can't help but think this is Mona Scott-Young's doing.
