NEW VIDEO: Migos ft. Drake – Walk It Talk It 

Today rap trio Migos released the visual for a “Walk it Talk It” featuring the rapper Drake from the Culture II album. The video is directed by Daps and Quavo and produced by Sarah Lacombe.
The first scene opens up on the set of the soul train called ‘culture ride’ with actor,singer and songwriter Jamie Foxx introducing Migos. Everyone is dressed in 70’s attire. They were lined up, like the temptations, in sink with each other killing us with the moves…lol Meanwhile the audience is playing games and starting a soul train line. 

I the video. I like how they got their lyrics to match with not only the setting but their moves. It’s SUPER cute!!! OnPoint!!! 💋

NEW VIDEO: Beyonce – Formation

Beyoncé has done it again! Queen B shut all the haters up in one 5 minute video. What I got from the video is that she is unapologetic. She is proud of who she is and where she came from. She is also proud to let everyone one that she loves her husband and her beautiful daughter no matter what haters have to say. I feel as if there is a reference to Travon Martin and being anti-cops. What I love most is the emphasis on black power. Queen B never fails to amaze me. Love it! OnPoint!

Stevie J Talk About Social Peer Pressure in African American Communities

Todays question is “How do we improve social peer pressure in the African American communities?”.

Stevie hit the question right on the nail. We absolutely need our young black men to feel as though they are wanted by their fathers. We need them to spend that quality time that every child needs. Mothers can do a lot but they can’t fill the void of a father. For example a young boy that has only been raised by his mother doesn’t understand certain things his other has been telling him about manhood. It could be that he looking at her like how could you possibly know. Which is normal because girls do it to when their dad tells them something about womanhood.

Social peer pressure is easy to fall in when you are looking to fill a void. When someone feels as though they need comfort not physically but emotionally they can find themselves in the wrong places.

In conclusions father and mothers please be present in your child’s life in order to lessen the number of social peer pressure that is dragging our young black people to the dark side.

 

Cedric The Entertainer’s Response On Youth and Black History

Today our question is “How do we get our black youth to take their history serious?”.

I have found that some of our youth don’t take their history as serious as they should. They kind of look at it as if its a thing of the past; but the reality is that it isn’t. We may not be legally going through segregation; but we are still segregating ourselves mentally. When our youth understand where they came, from and what they are capable of, their journey to success is endless.

Ben J and Shakari Briggs Respond To Question about African American Leaders

It is now Black History Month and we have dedicated ourselves to asking our celebz about African American/Black people. We want to address the questions that people of color have been asking, but haven’t gotten legit responses. Although we know not many people will response we will be updating about the ones that do respond. We are in for an interesting month.

Hope that you enjoy our questions and the celeb responses. Don’t forget to comment to keep the conversations going.

Todays Question is “Who are the leaders for our young black men/women today?”

 

Google Kicks off Black History Month with Hurriet Tubman Doodle

HurrietTubman

Today’s Google Doodle depicts American abolitionist and Underground Railroad conductor Harriet Tubman (c.1820-1913) in honor of the first day of Black History Month.

Born a slave in Maryland, Tubman worked as a maid, nurse, and cook before she left her family and fled to Philadelphia in 1849. In Dec. 1850, she returned to Maryland to help her sister and two children escape to freedom. For the next decade, she became the best-known conductor of the Underground Railroad, a secret network that helped fugitive slaves in the South reach safety in Northern free states or in Canada.

Tubman often dressed the escapees in disguises, according to the National Woman’s History Museum: ”If it was announced that a group of male slaves had bolted from a plantation, she dressed the fugitives as women for the trip north.” Her dedication earned her the nickname “Moses.”

The abolitionist heroine went on to serve as a spy for the Union Army during the Civil War. She would pretend to be an old, frail woman and wander around towns under Confederate control to get clues about the whereabouts of troops and supplies. In the last part of her career, she campaigned for women’s suffrage.

In March 2013, President Barack Obama signed a proclamation to establish the Harriet Tubman Underground Railroad National Monument, and a state park is expected to open in Maryland in 2015.
