Everyone loves to play the asshole until shit happens.

a Foxholer once told me:

“You can be any kind of person,
but if you are kind,
people will stick by your side if you fall from grace.”

in my journey through the concrete forests of life,
this nugget of wisdom has surely has been many of my experiences.
sure,
kindness has sometimes led my spirit to be bruised and battered,
but more often than not,
it’s circled back to me in the most unexpected and beautiful ways.
people have remembered my kindness and did anything to help me.
the jackals who hurt me?
i watched them burn every bridge to be trapped on their own islands they created.
just yesterday,
i stumbled upon something that made me roll my eyes…

can i ask ya’ll a serious question.
this is just something i’ve been pondering the last few days,
while watching all the rage and think pieces from trump supporters.

Why is it okay for Trump to contradict himself?
Why does he get a pass for his shenanigans?

it’s like the sibling who can do whatever but we get punished for breathing wrong.
remember when it came to hilary “lock her up” clinton back in 2016…

america is in this really weird place that when shit is about to go down,
especially when white folks are involved,
we assume that their privilege will protect them.
i assumed trump would be found not guilty and he’d be on his merry way.
i didn’t see this on my bingo card,
well i didn’t have a bingo card for this,
but this verdict…

you know when rolling stone gets to investigating ya.…
so rolling stone was doing a 6 month deep dive on all things diddy and…

Can we still have an opinion on a subject even if we have skeletons in our closets?

that was the question swirling in my mind today.
i saw joe budden taking center stage for his alleged past shenanigans again.
everyone was clamoring for his take on diddy’s latest drama,
despite knowing the whispers that follow his DV allegations.
his exes make no qualms of calling out his past domestic violence.
in typical joey fashion,
he had some choice words for tahiry’s claims about him:

Anyway, here’s a video of Joe Budden gleefully telling a story of how he left his tour and broke into Tahiry’s home because she wouldn’t answer his texts pic.twitter.com/0VRomBYGMJ https://t.co/Zgsd6RiOyx

as you know,
or didn’t,
but i believe joe has one of the sexiest voices in podcasting.
i’d be lying if I said I wouldn’t entertain that voice at 1am.
let’s get real for a moment tho…

Why is it that some people haven’t mastered the art of gracefully deflecting questions they’d rather not answer?

displaying ignorance and throwing temper tantrums is never a good look,
especially when you’re a black celebrity.
we don’t have the same luxury as white celebs have.
we are all thrown in the same box regardless if we are above it all or not.
from the likes of sexyredd,
and the numerous black male podcasters not doing the community any favors,
we been down bad for quite some time.

Cam’ron decided to throw his hat in ring on CNN last night with Abby Phillip

he wasn’t thrilled about being asked to weigh in on diddy’s drama.

So Cam'ron went on CNN tonight and it was an absolute disaster pic.twitter.com/xm3tCe9O7N

after the interview,
and he got the cheeks after getting his dick hard on air,
he explained why he acted the way he did on his own podcast…
