Game On a Nation: Hip Hop Intellectual

Both Jay-Z and Barack Obama shrewdly pounced at the right moment to announce the death of a trend/policy that had already worn out its welcome. For Obama, it helped propel him to leader of the free world. For Jay-Z, it may help cement his status as leader of the hip hop world.

I am just helping you see the power moves that are being made in the world and you still will not buy me a drink?? I will just do what the Republications say and get rich friends.

No matter if a African American man has a PhD from Harvard, he will still be treated like a criminal. Take the example of what happen to Professor Henry Louis Gates Jr recently, pop the video to get the details of the story.

Here is another liquor filled shot of the Hip Hop Report and it may burn on the way down. Enjoy.

The spirit of revolution has always been in the heart of the run away slave in North America. If you were in slavery would you continue to pick cotton or would you break the law and risk your life and run away?? Here is how I can tell if you are lying with your answer, in your modern life are you still just picking cotton??

I will let you check out the video, while I pour myself a glass of Ciroc and do the Diddy Bop.

Here is another hilarious video that I have included to help brighten your day. What is snitching?? Rampage said that 2009 is the year of the snitch. Well I am going to call to the police because you just came to this site and I think that you are a revolutionary. I am serious, LOL.

There is a trend that is occurring in Africa that will impact fashion all around the world. Check out the video for the special that aired on CNN, while I make a drink and name it after a African ruler.

I came across a video that clearly shows that the average American's knowledge regarding world affairs is laughable, and someone from the United Kingdom helped shine a light on this lack of knowledge. For example one of the many questions that was asked was, "Name a Country that starts with the letter 'U'", and most Americans could not answer it. By the way the answer could be: Uganda or United States.

After you watch the video ask yourself, Why are Americans quick to support military conflict against countries they know little or nothing about??

Paul Mooney's acumen regarding social issues, especially regarding race, is so outstanding. He breaks down the real issue of racism and explains that it has to do with power, and anyone who lacks power can never be a racist.

Peep the video because school has began and you are about to get schooled by Paul Mooney.

There are many who move their lips about the life and death of Micheal Jackson, however there are few such as J Smooth, a fellow Hip Hop intellectual, whose words so beautifully captured the essence of Michael Jackson. Lets moon walk together and listen to my man J-Smooth paint a perfect picture for us.
