For those of you who haven't heard this story yet, NHL player Raffi Torres [of the Phoenix Coyotes] put on brown make-up to go to a Halloween party as his favourite emcee Jay-Z, while his girlfriend went as a pregnant Beyonce. Once the photo above hit the net, dudes were ready to stomp his monkey-ass out like Em in 8-mile, and the racism claims were quick to follow and when the national media got a hold of this story, it EXPLODED. But ... Read More

In early August I was in New York watching the season finale [hopefully the SERIES finale] of ghetto-ass Basketball Wives [as I wrote about HERE]and I remember, during that I episode, hearing something about Jennifer Williams having a divorce party and getting some outlandish cake to celebrate being single and being able to let any frowsy young dude with a ceasar and Puerto Rican accent tear up her nani. Now when I saw that, I assumed it was just some ol' TV-land ... Read More

So I have a story to share with y'all today and I couldn't make this up if I tried. So last week as I was on my way home from a long day's work I ran into some young dudes giving out CD's to try and promote their rap group. Since the CD was free and I didn't have to hear them freestyle in my face at an uncomfortably close range, I decided to pick one up, but I promised myself I ... Read More

Yesterday I had the unfortunate experience of learning about a term called Feminist Rap - and today I REALLY wish I never did. For those of you who have never heard it, let me explain what it is SUPPOSE to be: Rap Music from a female matriarchal perspective that propagates the positives of women and RAGES against the male-dominated and aggressively misogynistic discourse that is a huge "problem" in hip-hop. But what "Feminist Rap" REALLY is, is a term invented by neo-hip ... Read More

As a young west-Indian resident of Toronto, I have been going to Caribana since before I can remember, when my mother would push me around in a stroller on a hot summer day as we all took in the festivities and the sights and sounds that we would have completely missed out on enjoying since Crop Over seemed like a world away. I have GROWN with Caribana and seen it's changes and progression, and like Common to Hip-Hop, I have tried to ... Read More

[caption id="attachment_5966" align="aligncenter" width="400" caption=""Apparently, we can't tell her reckless ass SH*T..""][/caption] Saturday night me and 6 friends were sitting inside a late night diner called Fran's after an event we just hosted, and as we sat down at our large table I happened to glance to my left and I saw Shabba Ranks in a lacefront and short dress. After immediately wondering why Shabba was dressed in Dudus-wear, I realized it was actually a woman - a pregnant woman, sitting beside her ... Read More

[caption id="attachment_5670" align="aligncenter" width="379" caption=""Is Creflo gonna have to choke a b*tch?""][/caption] To say I've been hard on organized religion, church and Megachurches in the past would be an understatement but my newest critique of Megachurch hypocrisy is calling out some bullsh*t that REALLY needs to be said in the wake of Creflo Dollar angrily defending his Partner-In-Crime Eddie Long. I always KNEW Creflo was a two-bit hustling, false-prophet, but now he is something MUCH worse: A non-apologetic defender of an old molester. Read More

[caption id="attachment_5391" align="aligncenter" width="553" caption=""How DARE you call me RACIST!? I have a great relationship with the blacks like this nig-um, woman, Jennifer""][/caption] I HATE being politically correct. Also, I equally hate the idea of people being FORCED to quell their original and unaltered opinions all in the name of political correctness, which is really just the 21st Century form of acceptable politeness. Political correctness is more about NOT saying the wrong thing, than just saying your own opinion with TACT, because if ... Read More
