Glad I got back to working at HBCUs. Celebrities and monumental figures casually showing up to campus on a weeknight just hits different. Need that Black culture and history within reach.

My favorite verse on the I Wanna Be Down remix was MC Lyte’s

My fav Boyz II Men songs actually
Yeah so regarding Boyz II Men, I’ve heard Motownphilly out at a 90s/new Jack swing party and it was live. One song that actually was fire when I heard it out was “Please Don’t Go” especially when folks were stepping and Ive even played Vibin before.

The best season of All American was #2 when Coop was trying to be in the streets because she’s a bum and Spencer was exercising his savior complex. Great television.
All American has officially ended after 8 years and 8 seasons.

Mannnn quarter million secured! God is good. After the month I’ve had, I needed this win!
I’m about to ask for $250k today. And I’m nervous about it. Even though this donor has already given half a million to the school and in the grand scheme of things this isn’t a “large” amount, it’s still my first time asking for such in one sitting.

No lies told. I miss good music videos and superb vocals
I was in 5th grade singing my whole heart out to this like I had a drug dealing boyfriend & a baby. The Set It Off roof, Wesley Jonathan + the vocals on this still superior to what’s released today. I miss real R&B. LovHer — How It’s Gonna Be (2001)

Just listened to Sammie’s debut album after probably two decades and it’s amazing how much of it I remember. It’s like muscle memory. That was a great album and a great time. Shoutout to the 305.

But Jeezy keeps extending these residency dates and I’ve been wanting to go for a while now. Is this truly my sign? Maybe a bday present to myself? Would anyone recommend??

This country is really a joke.

At this point in my life and career, I’m going to correct any misspelling of my name. I can’t complain if I don’t say anything. I realize people are too lazy to even try but ima give you the benefit of doubt only once.

About that time to watch our Final Four game from last season. Need some drama and a feel good win.

This album is truly perfect.
“My perfect 10 album is ‘Destiny Fulfilled’ by Destiny's Child.” —Sam Smith for Pitchfork “As an album, for me, it's the perfect blend of pop and R&B and soul. When the first single for it, which was Lose My Breath, came out, I was in school and I was like 12 years old. It was just, the video is just so insane and the music is unbelievable to that song. I was immediately hooked. It completely changed my life seeing Beyonce, Kelly and Michelle battle themselves in the video. The artwork and the whole visual creative alongside the music was just so perfect and cohesive. And then all of the videos just felt like they were in this world where I just was seeing like Black female strength and beauty and vulnerability and togetherness and girl power. ‘Soldier’ came and then ‘Cater 2 U’ and then ‘Girl’. There's so many insane songs on that album. I also just loved on the record that I feel like all three of the girls got their chance to really, really sing their song on it. There's a song on the album called ‘Bad Habit’ that Kelly sings, which is I think it's my favorite song on the album. It's just incredible. And there's also a song on the record called ‘Free’, which I think is the best harmonies I've ever heard ever. It just sounds like angels singing. There's an attitude and energy to the singing and the performance that I think I'll always be inspired by. There's a song called ‘Through With Love’, which has this incredible choir part. With the girls and I definitely feel like that's inspired some of my music. I feel like ‘Cater 2 U’, the song on the record as well, is for me just the perfect melody. The speed of the singing and the melody and the lyrics, the way that Beyoncé just takes you to the heights. And I feel like Destiny's Fulfilled, the album, is kind of, it's like the end of an incredible time and journey for that band. I want more, I want more, I want more. I want a stadium tour now. The album has just got better and better and better for me as I've got older. It's constantly a reference for me and just something I hold as the highest, one of the highest pieces of pop music in the history of music to me.”

Friday, Coming to America, Harlem Nights, Life, The Nutty Professor, and Don’t Be a Menace aren’t available… What’s the funniest laugh out loud black movie ever made?

I keep seeing people talk about how Brandy will bring in the younger generation with her A Different World theme song rendition (more modern, they say). But do they even listen to Brandy fr 🧐

A silk press with a trim is up to $165 out here in the DMV. I know cost of living is a factor. And that people are trying to make a living. But dang man!
