Kanye West: Wait Your Turn! I Run This!

Yeezy is back.
I'm a celebrity and damn proud of it. The controversial rapper and producer once again teases his fans with two albums and it's slated for a summer release.

Yeezy, damn man, you killing it.

Kanye West announced on The Breakfast Club that he is working on two albums and will release them soon.


One is the long awaited album he hasn't titled yet.

But expect it to be a rewind back to the days when The College Dropout dropped. Thus, you will see classic Yeezy working the microphone and the drum set.

Also, Yeezy is working on a collaboration album with Kid Cudi.

They call this collaboration Kids See Ghost and it's expected to be done after the album release. Kid Cudi is a Cleveland rapper who was signed to G.O.O.D. Music in 2009 and released three albums on the label before striking it on his own with his Wicked Awesome label. This is a reunion for the two.

The two had suffered through the turmoil of mental health. Both rappers have survived through family, prayer and support.

Years ago, Kid Cudi contemplated suicide after a biter custody battle with the mother of his daughter. He took the time to refocus on his life and made peace with West.

West also suffered from bipolar disorder. The rapper semi retired from rap after his wife was brutally assaulted and robbed in Paris. He also had a brief fallout with Jay-Z.
Kids See Ghost. Kanye West and Kid Cudi will debut a joint album.
Kanye is the father of Kim Kardashian's children, North (Nori), Saint, and Chicago (Chi). The rapper is the founder of G.O.O.D. Music.

He has signed Pusha T, Big Sean, Desiigner, Cyhi The Prince and Teyana Taylor.

Kid Cudi, Common, Consequence, John Legend and Mos Def had worked with Kanye West in the past and were signed to the label.

Rock on, Mr. West.

After a set of misfortunes, a newly refreshed Kanye West is ready to show his fans he's Chicago's golden child.

Walkout!

National School Walkout Against Gun Violence happened today.

Briefing for Friday. I spent the day with my son.

Today was the National School Walkout Against Gun Violence. The students of Parkland are determined to not let the tragic event at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School fade away. They how to keep pressure on lawmakers who continue to support loose gun laws and the NRA.

There were protest at many schools demanding lawmakers fund classrooms, pay teachers better, reigster young voters to support candidates that won't take NRA money and keep high capcity firearms out the hands of non military citizens. They got Dick's Sporting Goods to take action. They end the s

On 4/20, we mark another year since the Columbine massacre. In April, the most deadliest attacks happened in this period.. Oklahoma City bombing, Virginia Tech massacre, the Waco standoff, the Boston bombing, the Unabomber, and now a tragic attack in Ocala, Florida. There was a tragic event in Trenton. Two cops were gunned down by a terrorist while eating at a Chinese restaurant.

A terrorist shot a student at the Forest High School. The school walkout was on a halt. The terrorist managed to sneak into the school with his firearm concealed in the guitar case. The terrorist had no ties to the school but did have a domestic dispute with some of the students. The victim was shot in the knee. That victim will survive the injuries but will have an altering life experience. The Marion County sheriff detained the terrorist. That terrorist will face attempted murder charges. The terrorist is innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.

While that happen, another terrorist massacred two Florida deputies while they were eating at a local restaurant. Again the junk food media won't tell you that the terrorist was a white male. If it was Black male, immigrant or a Muslim, expect conservatives, Donald J. Trump make noise about the so-called war on cops.

Gilchrist County boys Noel Ramirez and Taylor Lindsey where we going down without warning. They let their guard down. The terrorist manage to kill himself nearby. The law says that this terrorist had issues with them before. The Gilchrist County Sheriff Bobby Schultz automatically blame Black Lives Matter and outside agitators for this attack.

Today, Barbara Bush is laying in repose in Houston as dignitaries from across the world ascend on Houston for her funeral. The mother of George W. Bush and wife of George H.W. Bush passed away at the age of 92. The former presidents, Jeb, Dora, Melvin, Neil, former first ladies, Melania Trump and Karen Pence will be there.

Trump will not be there. He will skip the event. He will head to his Mar-a-Largo resort to swing some golf balls on our taxpayer dime.

North Dakota Democratic Senator Heidi Heitkamp announces her support for Mike Pompeo, the soon-to-be Secretary of State who currently runs the CIA.

Trump is making plans to meet with North Korea's leader Kim Jong-un. It was reported that Pompeo went to North Korea to meet with high-level with members of the Korean government. There is also talk that the nuclear program has temporarily halted.

Former house weeper John Boehner has decided to give up his fight against the sticky icky. Boehner is now in favor of legalizing marijuana.

What Happened To Diante Yarber?

Another police shooting claims a Black father.
California needs to change.

Governor Jerry Brown and Attorney General Xavier Becerra need to figure out why law enforcement is quick to massacre unarmed Black men.

These aren't local issues. This is a national crisis.

Are you tired of the cops running behind the excuse "they fear for their lives" whenever they choose to use deadly force?

Okay, we are talking about another event in San Bernardino County.
Barstow Police shot Yarber's vehicle 30 times.
The Barstow Police shot and killed an unarmed motorist. The 26 year old man was at a Walmart when someone called the law on him and his girlfriend.

The police arrived on the reports of a suspicious vehicle. They quickly surrounded the vehicle.

As Yarber pulled out, the law fired 30 times into the vehicle. He was gravely injured. The girlfriend was injured.
Diante Barber's daughter.
The cops claimed Yarber was peeling out and he hit a patrol car. Others said that the cops were trigger happy and they did not give Yarber a verbal command.

Walmart representatives have no comment on the situation.

Now another Black father is gone and the far right will claim he had it coming.
A racist tactic by the junk food media is to use the mugshot of the victim.
Another thing that bothers me.... Why does the junk food media always seem to use the mugshot of the deceased. Again, the victim was unarmed and it seems like a play to justify the shooting.

They didn't do that when that white terrorist plotted a massacre in Wisconsin.

Matter of fact, most of these white terrorists had glaring profiles about their lives. Yarber wasn't the right skin color so his mugshot is used.

There are protest against the Barstow Police. The California State Highway Patrol will do the investigation.

Starbucks CEO: We Gonna Change The Game!

Starbucks is facing a boycott.
As a Black man, I know that white people react to my presence. I always keep a third eye and ear open to reactions.

I work in the service industry. I am proud of serving people. I don't care about your race, gender, religion, sexuality, nationality, political and economic standings. If I made an impact on your lives, then I felt like I done my part.

We are humans first, everything else last.
Rashon Nelson, a graduate from Bloomberg University was on camera being arrested. His fraternity are offering support to him and his friend. Black Lives Matter Philadelphia demand Starbucks change their policies and hire more people of color.
Bad customer service has also hurt the retail industry. One bad experience can destroy a company. Trust me, I had bad experience with customers and service representatives.

I often believe we have our own set biases. Whenever you see a person looking like they're up to no good, we often call the police to report suspicious behavior.

The Starbucks CEO promises that changes are coming. There were two incidents in the coffee brewery. Two incidents sparked outrage and a boycott from the Black community. One in Torrance, California and one in Philadelphia.
Kevin Johnson faces a PR nightmare because of these two incidents.
Both incidents show Black customers getting the cold shoulder.




Kevin Johnson publicly addressed the incident in Philadelphia. Two Black men were arrested for trespassing after the manager called the law on them.

The situation was filmed by a bystander and sparked outrage at the company over how they treat their Black guests.

The manager was fired out the cannon after the incident went viral.
Holly Hilton will be heading back to Dayton. The former manager of that Starbucks was fired out the cannon. The company is now in a PR disaster cause of her.
The manager went into hiding after they outed her social media. No surprise here, the former Starbucks manager hails from the segregated rust belt city of Dayton, Ohio.

Her name is Holly Hylton, a former resident who had some unpleasant social media rants about people of color.

Johnson personally apologized to the two men. One identified as Rashon Nelson and his friend. Now both of them will have an opportunity to share their story.

Robin Roberts will interview the men on Thursday.

Executive chairman Howard Schultz had talked to Gayle King about how Starbucks will change the way they deal with customers.


In the coming month, Starbucks will close up 8,000 stores for a day. They will have all their workers take anti-bias training and offer incentives to hire more minorities to these locations.

Tennessee Republicans Punished Memphis For Removing Racism!

State Republicans strip funds from Memphis after they removed Confederate statues.
So when Republicans say the Democrats are the party of the Klan.....

Whenever conservatives bemoan Black America about how our lives haven't improved, they often focus on the Democratic Party and its former standard bearer Barack Obama.

The party of Donald J. Trump has been very vocal about political correctness.

Removing statues of a long scorned legacy seems to piss the Republicans off.

Tennessee state lawmakers voted to strip Memphis of funding after the city went through its promise to dismantle Confederate monuments.

Steve McDaniel, a state representative who sponsored legislation to strip bicentennial funds from Memphis believe the removal of these historical markers were going against the will of the people.
Memphis from the Mississippi River.
Memphis, the largest city in the state with a population of 694,000 residents. A city with a majority Black population.

Okay, Republicans are you saying to Black America, hey you're gonna respect the founders of hate?

Nathan Bedford Forrest is the originator of the Ku Klux Klan, the oldest and most dangerous white extremist group in the United States.

Since Trump has been in office, the Southern Poverty Law Center has seen a spike in hate groups. The spike is contributed to anti-Muslim, anti-immigrant, and perceptions of Black people treating the police with utter disrespect.


Kendrick Lamar Won A Pulitzer!


A pure genius at work.

Top Dawg Entertainment artist Kendrick Lamar has another notch on his belt.

Kendrick Duckworth now is a Pulitzer Prize award-winning journalist. His Grammy Award winning album, DAMN won the prize for "unified by its vernacular authenticity and rhythmic dynamism that offers affecting vignettes capturing the complexity of modern African-American life."

This is huge for hip-hop.




Kendrick Lamar's rise to success shapes history. A kid from the rough streets of Compton used his talent to become one of the most gifted artists in modern history.

Top Dawg and Aftermath Entertainment released the critically acclaimed Black Panther motion picture soundtrack.

It features the smash hits from Kendrick Lamar and SZA, All the Stars and Pray for Me with The Weeknd.

TDE is the shit. Kendrick Lamar, talent god.


The Nut Will Crack!

More bad news for embattled right wing hack Alex Jones. He faces a pair of lawsuits.

The far-right kookspiracist Alex Jones is being served a lawsuit.

The controversial agitator is being sued by the families of the Sandy Hook elementary school massacre. They are suing him for defamation after the nut went on this continuous rant that the Sandy Hook massacre did not happen.

He believes the victims were crisis actors.

Jones who no stranger to promoting look stories got embroiled in a controversy with Parkland survivor David Hogg. The teen is the most prominent voice to the gun control debate and he has been a target of a vicious smear campaign by Jones, Laura Ingraham and others.

Jones is on thin ice with YouTube. He is considered too controversial for the social media platform and the company warned him to tone down vitriol.

These vitriolic right wing carnival barkers should be held accountable.

The lawsuits are being served to him on behalf of Jesse Lewis and Noah Pozner. The parents were stalked, harassed and were subjects of death threats from fans of Infowars. They are seeking $1 million in damage each.
More mass shootings happened right after Sandy Hook. Enough is enough.
The lawyers representing Jones believe that their lawsuit will not stand because he is an entertainer not a news reporter.

We are seeing activism at work. Jones, Ingraham, Rush Limbaugh, Matt Drudge and Sean "Softball" Hannity have divided this country far too long.

If we pressure advertisers to drop them, maybe we can see change.

Jones peddles bullshit everyday. He can't get away anymore.

Back in December 2012, this terrorist went into the Connecticut school and massacred 20 children and five school administrators before killing himself.

The terrorist killed his mother before he went on his rampage. Then president Barack Obama vowed to get the ball rolling on gun control in his second term.

Republicans blocked every move. Now nearly six years later, Republicans are losing the message war. The right and the NRA have embolden Americans who are tired of the bullshit.

Time to hold these guys accountable.

Bon Ton Is Out!


While some blame the rise of Amazon for the fall of many retailers. Many others blame bad leadership.

The brick-and-mortar stores are going out of business. It's only a matter of time before one third of America's malls go out of business.

Another major retailer is going out of business soon. The Bon Ton Group which owns a handful of department stores will begin liquidation proceedings. The Chapter 7 liquidation of the Bon Ton Group will put 24,000 workers out of a job.

This will impact malls that depended on that anchor store.

All stores associated with Bon Ton will immediately close within 12 weeks.

Younkers, Elder Beerman, Carson's, Bergner's, Herbeger's, Boston Store and Bon Ton stand alone stores will leave the Midwest and Northeast.

This will have a huge impact on the Dayton area. There are 10 stores in the region.

Employees who work at the stores in Huber Heights, Beavercreek, Kettering, Piqua in Ohio and Richmond, Indiana will be affected.

Make America Great Again.

During her time, she focused on literacy, AIDS, family values and faith.

Art Bell Passed Away!

Art Bell will be missed by those who study paranormal activities and supernatural events.
If you love listening to Coast to Coast AM on many radio stations across the country you would hear George Noory, the current host of the late night program.

His predecessor was Art Bell, the creator and executive producer of the late night paranormal and conspiracy program.

Art Bell died on Friday in his Nevada home.

Bell died on Friday the 13th. Kind of interesting for him to pass away on a day that many Americans consider superstitious.

I often listened to Coast to Coast on nights I often had to work. The show would focus on stories of the unexplained, the supernatural and government secrets that never get played in the junk food media.

Bell began his career in radio at an early age. He started his own pirate radio which led to the beginnings of Coast to Coast.

The other side is waiting. We will miss you.

Famed guests on Coast to Coast AM include, George Carlin, Dan Aykroyd, Jerome Corsi, Richard Hoagland, and others.
