Is It a Coincidence That Today’s Most Outspoken Black Male Athletes Are Married to Black Women? (Hint: Nah)
In 2005, Kanye West articulated the perceived inevitability of successful black men leaving black women for white women in “Gold Digger”—a song 1) in which he was speaking specifically to black women and 2) that he created while he was likely dating either Alexis Phifer or Brooke Crittendon (actual black women). Considering Kanye’s present life,…

Kanye West Was Right. Also, Rick Santorum Is an Idiot
Rick Santorum is an idiot. The former senator from Pennsylvania and potential GOP presidential nominee is making Kanye West, who we’ve all thought has lost several sets of marbles throughout his life, look like a high prophet. Back in 2015, Kanye West received the VMA Vanguard Award from MTV and went on an 11-minute speech…

Kanye West Just Taped an Episode of Celebrity Family Feud That I’m Never Going to Watch Because I’m Lying to You Right Now
I’ve never watched an episode of Keeping Up With the Kardashians, Khloé & Lamar, I Am Cait, Kylie and Kendall Go Black-Boy Fishing or any of the other iterations of the Kardashian shows. In fact, I think they’re untalented hacks who have made a fortune swallowing blackness and puking it back out because vomit spilling out…

Soul Singer Alleges That Kanye West and Solange Knowles Illegally Sampled His Track
Prince Phillip Mitchell, also known as Leon Mitchell, isn’t the sort of household name that Kanye West and Solange are. Still, if you listened to Kanye’s Graduation (the 2007 album went double platinum, so it’s safe to say that most of us have), Mitchell’s work will be familiar to you; his song “If We Can’t…

Justin Timberlake’s Man of the Woods Album Probably Should Have Been Called 808s and Banjos
On Friday, Justin Timberlake will release his fifth album, Man of the Woods. You may remember that he teased the album with a visual trailer that was akin to a white version of Beyoncé’s Lemonade visuals, with Timberlake doing odd things in the outside with horses, snow, fire, frilly leather jackets, dirty T-shirts and gloves.…

Unpopular Opinion: Kanye’s Kim Worship Has Gone Too Far to Be Fashionable
(Editor’s Update: Apparently, this opinion isn’t as unpopular as first thought.) Today in “Baby, what is you doin’?” news: Kanye, GET OUT of here with this Yeezy season 6 campaign! We’re all for folks being their mate’s biggest cheerleaders, but this campaign is taking “muse” to sycophant levels. The “Who wore it best?” series of…

Could Kim Kardashian’s Cold, Overstuffed Hot Pockets Actually Be the Sunken Place?
On Monday, the human black-man succubus, also known as Kim Kardashian, continued her trek to colonize the entirety of black womanness, thus completing her transition to become the first-ever cloned Armenian sex doll with black mannerisms. She accomplished this latest maneuver by appropriating cornrows. To date, Kardashian and her merry band of familial pirates have…

Each of the Grammy-Nominated Albums Since 2007 That Should Have Won Album of the Year
The Grammys rarely get it right. I was done with them when I discovered that neither the Notorious B.I.G. nor Tupac won one for their work while alive or after their deaths. And it is not lost on me that when given a choice between the two, the Recording Academy loves to reward music that…

Russian Designer Tries to Issue Ridiculous Nonapology After Using Racial Slur in Note to Blogger
Well, well, well. Another day, another white person not realizing that it’s really never appropriate to use the word “nigga” (or any variation thereof). This time, Russian fashion designer Ulyana Sergeenko is meeting some swift backlash for a note she sent blogger and co-founder of Buro 24/7, Miroslava Duma. Duma was the one who shared…
