Everyone in Chicago cannot wait for the premiere of this upcoming Tube-E film by Will Adams. 

All of the great Chicago comedians are in this Lokekey Production Film. We like the summer but can't wait for this November to fall into dropping this new highly fun cast and funny film. 

Oh, my goodness. People keep calling me saying they can't wait for something great coming up in November. They are late. I already know about the Lokekey  Production film on the low. 

Don't front you KNOW you can't wait for Will Adam's Tube-E Movie in 3 more months. That's in November! No one can. You're not alone.

Raise your hands if you enjoy having summer fun. Did someone say camping? You must be referring to Sip N' Smores (yes). Brace yourselves for some good old fashion fun, memories and experiences. I just heard about a black-owned summer camping business today on the news this morning. Brian Foster is the marketing director for this new camping site located in Kupugani, Illinois. Thank you, guys, so much.

This will be an everlasting love of families getting together to plan reunions. I can see it all happening. We love to have different events to add to our love days or our birthdays, anniversaries, and everyday celebrations. You already know the fraternities and sororities will come from many different states to support this particular summer camp, dripping positively in the exuberance of melanin.

The black excellence won't stop. I already speak and decree into existence and the universe all the corporate sponsorships reaching out to Sip N' Smores. Sip N' Smores will help many companies enhance their diversity training and build cohesiveness toward all the melanated (DEI) men and women who "Definitely Earned It." They earned, having a seat at those tables. OMG! What about the summer camping with the stars? Sip N' Smores will be in every state. This is about to be huge. I smell generational wealth brewing.

The absolute nourishing part about this summer camp is not only is it open to all people, but this summer camp promotes mental health and wellness. The motion of activities is so good for your heart and all of your organs. Isn't it just so lovely to know you can get away with your Queen Mamas or your King Papas and go hiking, kayaking, and swimming with nature. How awesome is that! You know you can also tap into those marriage retreats and have couples trying out things they have never done before. This very well could be an alternative to the old way of doing bachelor and bachelorette parties if the occasion is in the summer.

Thank you to Brian Foster and his team for their vision of fun. We can leave our kids for a few days and bask into good times. You know you (we) need this. You can also do karaoke (yah-ah), line dancing and so much more at Sip N' Smores summer camp. Sometimes we just need to sit and talk. We all need to listen to each other. We need to vibe in unity together. Labor Day weekend is the next camping date for you to enjoy Sip N' Smores. Yall be doing the most, out there in Kupugani, Illinois serving your community and helping people get out of their comfort zones into other fun vibrations of new territories. THANK YOU.

Dear Black People, (Hey)

Those who know me are aware of how much I adore watching any of Tyler Perry movies. I don't care what others have said about his movies. I will always go see his movies for myself and guess what, for the most part, I often enjoy them all. I have people in my circle who just don't like Tyler Perry movies and that is their prerogative. Everything is not made for all people. I was quite surprised to hear Tyler Perry speak out against a few of his critics regarding the new movie he just released, "Divorce in The Black." I have not seen that one yet! 

Tyler Perry basically stated that he is doing the work God instructed him to do. He is not about to alter that in any way for those who do not like it. Perry also added how satisfying it is to see how many lives he has touched or changed by his movies. Guess he told yall (lol).

We are all entitled to our own thoughts and opinions. Some of us really need to learn how to respect the thoughts and opinions of others, even if they do not agree with you.

I certainly have nothing against the entertainment industry. What we as a nation and group of melanated people really should be focusing on is ensuring our kids are in key roles and authoritative positions so things like the Missouri Supreme Court blocking the overturned convictions of our loved ones and sending them back to jail does not happen. I did not like this. This didn't get any major support from the news media. Probably social media. This is what we've always been up against. This innocent man's wife was getting ready to pick him up and that good ole boy system that their forefathers set up, stood bold and proud. They blocked it. It is wonderful that so many are excited about Kamala. I want us to be just as supportive and concerned about the injustice we are still going through. What will Kamala do? I don't know. Pay attention to how these prosecutors treat our melanated people. The judges too! I do not care if they are red or blue, they are not for us. The evidence is extremely overwhelming. We need our own people in these positions. We need righteous folks in those positions.

​​​​This controversial piece is kind of like my Twitter Tweets of The Week. Once in a while I cruise around Twitter and talk about many random things trending but this time it will be with post from Instagram. Sometimes there is audio so please don't forget to click on the links in purple to listen in. I will always and forever dedicate this controversy towards the black liberation for melanated people and agendas of freedom in all of our nations! Remember that sometimes you will be offended by some of these Instagram posts. It might help you think about your views on things or change your perspective. The title does say this is about controversy. I hope you feel some kind of way. You're supposed to! This edition of controversy is extremely controversial in a presidential way.

Do you think Kamala is not for black people? Does she see herself in you as a black woman? Do you think she is concerned about the black community or the oppression?

The woman in this post had some interesting points. Why would Kamala not say she would back policies only for black people? Then she is showing allegiance to give money to others. Perhaps she would not have been elected if she did not say what she said. Black people in leadership positions have to say they are for all people. It makes white people very uncomfortable if you don't say those things. When you are white you don't have to mention what you will do for white folks. It's already implied. Everything is about you anyway, if you are European. You don't even have to have an agenda for black folks. This world is still run by white men. When are we going to be free to push our own agendas? They did a good job displaying Kamala saying one thing but doing it for another group of people. 

I totally agree with this statement. "We are something else when it comes to each other. "This brotha boldly articulated he is voting for VP Kamala Harris because she is a black woman, but he says that she is also qualified for the position. He asked the question, "do you think others wouldn't vote for their own qualified people or group?" If there was an Asian man/woman running to be the president would the Asian community come out to support them? What about the LGBQT community or the Hispanic communities? You don't think they would rally together to make sure their own is fully supported? The answer is YES, they would. Along with all the other melanated folks and others, they surely would. What about Europeans, do you think they engage in supporting their own? 

If you think your vote doesn't count, just vote for her anyway (lol).

Through the genius of Europeans thievery our cells were stolen for their profit. Our voting rights are under attack (none but ours). Our men and women are still treated as second class citizens through the religion of white supremacy. White is always better and right in their eyesight. Our history was stolen and hidden to benefit all the lies their forefathers told them. Through the genius of Europeans medical, economic, and spiritual warfare that they created specifically for the melanated folks, helps to keep us on our toes. Our unity makes them break out in hives of fear.

Thankfully, a lot of white folks do not think like him but unfortunately a lot of Europeans do.

Wow! This is some barbarian, pure race soldier behavior. These are the terrible episodes of trauma melanated people continue to go through. Trump has vowed to give police officers like this man, immunity. Nope, no thank you to that. Do not act like race wasn't a factor in this case. It always is. No family wants this kind of madness happening to their wife, sister, daughter, cousin or mom. Why is it that the majority of the time when these incidents are occurring, it's always white men that are quick to draw their guns and kill those that do not favor them. How come you never see black male officers doing this to white folks? These types of men should not be allowed to patrol "our" communities especially if they do not like the culture or know the culture. 

Why aren't any presidents ensuring effective policy to protect innocent people from this kind of abuse of power? We do not demand it. We really do need to get something for "our" votes! These United States of America can give all the funds in the world to different countries to provide and protect them but what about the melanated black people's protection? This is absolutely crazy. This black woman was killed by this particular officer over lies. They always lie and try to cover it up. She said, "I rebuke you in the name of Jesus" and he shot her dead. We all know if she was a white woman, whether mentally ill or not, they would have handled her with more care, understanding and de-escalation. Nothing has changed. We are not that tired, I guess. Where is the outrage from the church and the community? This could have been your wife, sister or daughter, then what? 

If this man would set up a homeless person in the way he described in this IG post, what do you think he would do with policies that could affect your life if you are not a perfect fit for an agenda called project 2025. Please read it or skim on through those 900 pages. This is dangerous stuff. He is advocating to kill anti-discrimination laws just like his sister is. This is the genius of the Europeans, I surmise. Pay attention. Class already started.

Is it 1951? It certainly feels like it is. The Black Woman couldn't possibly have an intellectual savvy brain to obtain positions that some white men think she isn't qualified to have. Therefore, she is stigmatized as mediocrity and a DEI hire. We love it when we know where we stand with you. No need to be so phony about it. You do get an Oscar on your passive aggressiveness you enjoy leaking out.

I love this! Here are 10 Spanish phrases to learn. To all the close-minded people who think they don't need to learn this, that is fine. We know that this is America. Yes, English is the language but there is nothing wrong with knowledge. This is not for you if you're not interested. No pressure.

This post encourages us to look for 5 things in a partnership:

1. Find a partner that is honest and loyal to you
2. Respects you, your family and your opinions 
3. Prioritizes you
4. Is mature enough to sit down and talk through problems 
5. Loves you for who you are

Do you agree with this or not? Love never fails.

"Love is not just about finding the right person but creating a right relationship. It's not about how much love you have in the beginning but how much love you build until the end."

May you have and may we all work on having a heart that is as pure as this child. Especially some more than others. We call ourselves the United States of America, but the "United" part appears to have amnesia. Why is it that we only become "United" if we are being attacked by other countries? Then when that dies down, we are up at it again. The Democrats vs the Republicans, whites against black, and all of the theocracy religion brings. Do you think our younger people are watching us? They are. We are failing. Stop saying that you want it better for your kids and grandkids but you're the culprit of the monster this little girl is referring to. 

Will you listen to this little girl and at least try?

At last, after all of this controversy go ahead and dance it out. There is nothing like dancing with someone you love. 

Vice President Kamala Harris "Definitely Earned It." I saw that phrase on social media (Instagram) and just had to run with this narrative. Perhaps those who are concerned about where Kamala stands on various policies should seek out and research it. Stop saying you don't know what her policies are or what she stands for. Go look, it's not hidden! Did you not know that most student/lawyers study nothing but policies when they are in law school?

• Earned Political Science Degree from Howard University
• Served as Duty District Attorney 
• Elected District Attorney of San Francisco 
• Became Attorney General of California 
• Elected as Vice President of the United States 

Why is it that when black people are actually qualified and elevated to do a job, they become fearful? I wonder why. They (white men) always cry about them not being worthy to serve in their position. Their new rhetoric is, those DEI (Diversity, Equity & Inclusion) folks. They use it in a negative way to describe melanated people. Oh, I know why. They only think they (white men) are super, supremely able and capable to do the job. Incidentally, this spiritual warfare we are in has nothing to do with skin color. Dismiss all the distractions and remain spiritually active. They shol acting like those good ole Christian folks. 

​​​​​​Years ago, when I first witnessed people on social media posting the words "Mood" on their social media platforms, I often wondered why they posted that, or what it meant? Now I totally get it.

What a beautiful relaxing song.

Time for you to snuggle up close to some stress-free behavior in the summer of 2024. There are 3 movies you must see this summer. Don't think about inflation, or politics, or those individuals with bad energy. Learn to be selfish with yourself for at least a few hours and watch these Sancti-Fly Movies.

What are you going to do when those Bad Boys come looking for you? You may run but you're going to get caught, eventually. This film was so full of action. It was packed with humor and excellent music. My favorite scene was that plane scene. Okay, that's all I am telling you. It was a great twist and turn of events. Go see this movie. Martin and Will did it again.

Be careful what you asked for. You might get it. Will you be able to handle it? If it gets rough, are you going to run away from what you asked for, or will you fight for it? You know it won't always be easy. I am praying that you fight for what you asked for. Most people know at least someone who grew up in the governmental system of foster care whether it was their friend or family member. Perhaps we probably even have a personal experience with the Department of Children and Family Services. Either way, Sound of Hope is a highly recommended movie that will inspire you. The movie is about a true story that happened in the State of Texas in a little town called Possum Trot. My lips are sealed. I can't say anything else, but you have to watch this movie. 

Oh, my goodness! You know how much I adore true history, especially when we get to control our own narrative. Horizon (An American Saga) has everything to do with American History. Like stolen land and territory. History has shown how good Europeans were at taking and stealing things that did not belong to them. Kevin Costner presents another narrative of land and territory with the Indians or the indigenous people. Whew! All I can say is, please go see it.

Rise Above Cuz (cousins)

In my community we say, "what's up cuz, or how are you doing cuz?" It's short for cousin. This organization is leaking in inspirational warfare for our young people and the world. Give your children some of these knowledgeable treats. It's very healthy for their minds. I actually had an opportunity to meet members of Rise Above. They came to my town and set up their mobile trucks. Members of my community were able to tour an awesome array of history, and they allow you to watch a short film. They use the story of the Tuskegee Air Men to inspire all the young people in this world to overcome adversities in their lives. This is worth having in your town or city.

Attention Extension 

If you believe that your children are the future and they are, push them in this great direction! What are you waiting on? Do it! Congresswoman, Robin L. Kelly has a newsletter that I encourage you to join if she represents you. Kelly initiated a Congressional Youth Cabinet (CYC) to get our young people involved in public service and policy. If you have children in high school or know kids who are in their junior and senior year, please encourage them to apply for this opportunity. It most likely will aid them in their future endeavors as leaders. Yes, it will, hint, hint.

The deadline to apply for a Congressional Youth Cabinet member has been extended to August 23. You can apply here.

Un-American Assassinations Again

Boys and girls plus ladies and gentlemen pay attention but don't be so easily infected with distractions. Yes, there are things we can all agree on that are very questionable. Like how in the world did the young man ease on down that yellow brick road, and land on a rooftop on the Secret Service watch? People were injured and one person was killed so please be mindful of the things you say on social media regarding this failed attempt to assassinate Donald Trump?

She's Got Her Own (Museum)

Naomi Campbell is a brown skin mama with gurl power floating out of her. This woman has created a masterpiece of her entire career for you to be part of the history. Gone-gurl.

​The Real Deal is The Appeal

There is so much in stake in the upcoming elections. We still have to have faith. If you are working in the criminal justice arena or in any form of law enforcement, are students in law school, or enjoy soaking up knowledge, please subscribe to The Appeal. They have some of the best investigative reporters who give you all the news that is worthy of your awareness.  For instance, information politics, policing, criminalization, prosecution and everything in between. If you have melanated kids that you are raising, it’s imperative for you to get close to all of the things beneficial to you. That is The Appeal. The Appeal gives their audience untold stories of their communities. We wouldn't even know about a lot of the injustices hiding out in the black and brown skin areas of our neighborhoods if the reporters from The Appeal didn't expose it all. Stay in the know! Please support them.

Drafted and Gone (Khyree)

Life is definitely a long shadow of short. This young man got drafted into the NFL to play for the Minnesota Vikings and never got a chance to experience being a professional athlete. He had a terrible car accident and died. Stories like this one fortifies appreciation of life and for us to not take anything for granted. Tragic! 

Vegan Eating Empire

Brick City Vegan is taking you back to a plant-based lifestyle. Adenah Bayoh and
Emeka Onugha had a vision of love. Kind of like Mariah Carey(lol) but for their communities to drown and bleed in a little bit of healthier choices to din at. They opened up another vegan restaurant. They look so happy. The best part that gets into the serotonin of my heart is that it is black owned.

Dear Black People, (Hey)

Who are you guys voting for? Will it be Trump or Biden? You already know this upcoming election is going to be crazy, right? Some said Biden is too old, but Biden has announced that he is staying in the race so please stop feeding that narrative. It's time to put it to an end. Plus, it's really not wise to try pushing the president to the side because of his age. He has advisors and a vice president. If the democrats want to continue acting like the president ONLY makes all the big decisions by himself, their division will cost them a lot. They said Trump lied a lot during the debate. I watched the debate and Trump really has the best acting skills that had me cracking up in much needed laughter. Trump called Biden a liar and a criminal 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂. He sure did. I went to bed in so much wellness because laughter is good for your heart. There are plenty-many folks who do not care for either of the two choices we have to vote for but when the majority of black and brown people started to hear about this republican 2025 project, they are opting to vote against that. Others are not pleased with it as well, but I am directly speaking to all the melanated people because those new policies they want to enact will most likely affect melanated families more. 

It is astounding to me that a lot of folks still don't know what project 2025 is. Why aren't all the lawmakers and lobbyist not talking about this? They are but you have to read.

Read it for yourself so when those other people tell you it's not true, you will know for yourself. Read the mandate for leadership. Read all about the conservative promise. Its 900 pages. READ IT.

Ivy Queen is just that, a dope queen. This song is sick with all the elements of the music and the sophistication of this oldskool lady we call Ivy Queen. Love her. OMG she is the bum!

Love Songs

She gotta a whole lot of love for you. Can you handle it? Well at least love is on her mind and not hate. This is a great oldskool love song.

It's hot in here! Aventura is deliciously handsome...fine! Shhh. No le digas a nadie (don't tell nobody). Lo mucho que te quiero (how much I love YOU). Aventura. Everybody knows now. Lol

Can I just get a 30, second hug, Aventura? Please count very slow, ok?

Sabes que te quiero Don Omar! You know I love him. He was younger back then but so what, he is still looking like a King today. He is still my man in my mind. Lol
