Big Mama Thornton performing "Hound Dog". She released the song first in 1953 before Elvis Presley (1956), his biggest worldwide rock and roll hit record. Thornton was a blues singer who helped shape the sound of Rock&Roll. She released the song “Hound Dog” in 1953 and it sold two million records and went #1 on the R&B charts. Unfortunately Thornton only received about $500 from those profits.

This is horrific. 5 people have been charged in the torture and the murder of a transgender man. Sam Nordquist, 24, was reported missing in February, and subjected to repeated acts of violence and torture, leading to his death.

Dear Wypipo, I know it’s been a rough week for you with @Beyonce winning both Country Album of the Year and Album of the Year at the #Grammys, @kendricklamar picking up five Grammys himself and then irritating y’all with an all Black #SuperBowl Halftime Show featuring @serenawilliams crip walking and @sza singing, and to top it off, the #Philadelphia @Eagles winning the Super Bowl and their Black quarterback @JalenHurts being named #MVP. I know all of this has to sting, but remember, it’s about meritocracy. Hang on in there. If we could get through slavery, lynching, murder, rape, segregation, brutalization, dehumanization, and mass incarceration, y’all should make it through this just fine. Happy #BlackHistoryMonth.

Our music has always been deep. It’s always been complex and it’s always been soulful/spiritual. We use hip hop to evolve. To protest. To celebrate. Etc. Art/music plays a role in why a lot of us are proud to be black today. Our culture is all through these genres. Don’t let these people brainwash you into disconnecting from the soul of hip hop by convincing you it isn’t cool or it’s “too deep”. It’s always been that deep for us and it should stay that way. We created it! Once we lose the soul we’ve lost the genre. Nobody should be redefining our art form but us. Anybody talking shit about hip hop that makes you think or makes you feel something— should immediately be recognized as a opp. Ask yourself what they gain from us watering down our music, taking the soul out, only discussing surface level topics and becoming less conscious. Only a specific group of people benefit from us not being introspective. Tighten up.
