A Little Less Conversation, A Lil Mo Action

1) Mo' Murda - It's pretty darn sad that there is not much being done about the brotha that was gunned down in NY by the police. They claim he was armed by according to Rev. Al Sharpton and Rev. Jesse Jackson, who are fighting against the most likely racially motivated death, the man wasn't armed and why would you kill an innocent brotha on his wedding day no less? This is yet another senseless death perpetuated by the white man and there is not much we can do about it. I applaud Jackson and Sharpton for stepping up the plate. I wonder what would be happening if the shoe was on the other foot? CBS, NBC, Fox, The CW and that My-Network would have had crowd discussions and debates if that had been a Caucasian dude. You know I'm right.

2) Ritchie Gone Crazy - Okay......so Nicole Ritchie decides to park her car in the opposite direction in the midst of traffic on the freeway in Cali, and at night. Was that a cry for attention or was homegirl trying to end her life? That is just another example of how money doesn't buy happiness.

3) HU Goes Hip Hop - Howard University is going to start offering hip hop courses. Hmm. Por Que? I do like hip hop and have traditionally appreciated it, but I am wondering what was the motivation behind it. I think when we as a people do things like that we perpetuate stereotypes as far as immortalizing the gangsta thug image and the Kristall/Hypnotiq/Bling lifestyle. Perhaps I am the only 1 who feels this way.....but I suppose it may do our peeps some good to learn the life. After all, that's what we need in the world....right?

Life has many parts, but a few have to be deleted.

Last to play...
Rizen - Praise Him
Mississippi Mass Choir - Put Your Trust In Jesus
Canton Jones - Stay Saved
Da T.R.U.T.H. - Tell Me Why
Israel & New Breed - You Are Good
