We are in sad times when individuals would take to the internet to spread outlandish and reckless lies on people but especially when those lies involves that of a deceased member of the hip hop community when that person can clearly not defend himself. Recently, Cash Jones who is famously known as Wack 100 was on a Clubhouse chat where he insinuated that there was a video showing that the late rapper Nipsey Hussle was playing for both teams or was gay. He also claimed to have received the video several years ago where it showed the late rapper in a compromising situation. Around 2019 after Nipsey died I was contacted by an individual looking to sell a video of him in which they said it would break the internet but it would cost. Will we would never run any type of porn on our platform I wanted to see if there was in fact a tape out there and why would someone want to harm this man’s legacy by releasing something like this.
https://youtu.be/nd75R0T81sk
At this point I asked the individual to send proof that they in fact had a video and within the hour the proof was received. I told the individual that we were not interested in purchasing it and that they should just destroy the footage because it could be very dangerous for them had it ever got out that they were trying to sell it.
I thought it was very odd to hear Wack 100 make such a claim about someone who meant a lot to so many people around the world and I knew from my own eyes that nothing in that video could ever be perceived as gay.
Why put out such a narrative like that? It is reckless and irresponsible and no one should ever condone such behavior.
Today, the hip hop community is mourning the loss of one of New York’s musical treasures. DJ Kay Slay passed away on Easter Sunday while surrounded by his family members. The former rapper and hip hop influencer was fighting a case of Covid back in December and was hospitalized but unfortunately he lost the battle.
Statement from the family:
“Our hearts are broken by the passing of Keith Grayson, professionally known as DJ Kay Slay. A dominant figure in Hip Hop culture with millions of fans worldwide, DJ Kay Slay will be remembered for his passion and excellence with a legacy that will transcend generations. In memory of DJ Kay Slay, our family wishes to thank all of his friends, fans, and supporters for their prayers and well wishes during this difficult time. We ask that you respect our privacy as we grieve this tragic loss.”
Kay Slay, AKA Dez, started out as a graffiti artist in the ’70s and ’80s — and later branched out into music … making his big splash in the early 2000s through the local radio and music scene with his big personality and unique beat selection … not to mention his wicked flow.
He’s most famous for his mixtapes — cranking out more than a dozen dating back to 2003 — plus other solo and compilation artists, which often featured huge names in the game … including Nas, Swizz Beatz, N.O.R.E., Raekwon, Lloyd Banks and Foxy Brown.
His “Streetsweeper” series is one of his major claims to fame, as was his recurring radio spot on Hot 97 — which was dubbed the Drama Hour … another nickname he bore. DJ Kay Slay was also known for his disses in his tracks, and was once called “Hip-Hop’s One-Man Ministry of Insults” by the New York Times.
17-year old suspect Jeremiah Ryan is accused of killing 16-year old Angeliyh Yambo who was walking home from school when a bullet not intended for her resulted in her death.
Jeremiah Ryan charged with murder
According to a police report, Ryan had a dispute with four individuals and when one of them made a motion to suggest they had a firearm Ryan drew his weapon and fired several shots in their direction resulting in the death of victim Yambo and two other teens who were walking home from school. The two other victims in the shooting injuries are not life-threatening.
Angeliyh Yambo, murdered while walking home from school
Ms. Yambo was killed just blocks from her home in the South Bronx and around the corner from University Heights Secondary School. She was pronounced dead shortly after emergency responders brought her to Lincoln Medical and Mental Health Center in the Bronx.
After police interviewed Ryan with his parent, they arrested for 1 count of murder, two counts of attempted murder and criminal possession of a firearm.
“My baby was an innocent bystander. She was walking home from school. She was a good student, a good girl. She wasn’t in the streets. Our kids aren’t even safe walking from a place where they get their education,” according to the mother of Yambo, Yamely Henriquez.
NYPD is now saying that the firearm used in the shooting was a “ghost gun” and was likely manufactured by using a 3D printer which is untraceable and doesn’t contain any serial numbers.
After Ryan’s criminal arraignment in the Bronx, his high-profile attorney Deveraux Cannick who represented singer Robert Sylvester Kelly during last year’s federal trial in New York spoke to the media regarding his client’s case and the victim’s mother response to her daughter’s death: “I’m sure like every other mother in a situation like this, you don’t know what’s going on …. I’m sure she’s grieving like all the other mothers right now.” The attorney also stated that he would concede to the no bond request by the district attorney pending the results of discovery evidence.
It all went down this weekend on the popular social media platform Instagram when Fanbase app owner Isaac Hayes III, son of the legendary Isaac Hayes made a controversial post in support of the Grammys show while many high profiles musicians have stated that they don’t plan on attending this year’s event.
Isaac Hayes, III music producer and Fanbase app founder
“My post today about the Grammys has nothing to do with white supremacy because even though the Grammys are created by white people it is the celebration and recognition of all music genres and how that comes about is by voting.”
Hayes has taken the position that the award show is less about whites excluding blacks from winning and more about black participating in the voting process. Hayes also cited some of the black artists who have actually won Grammys which included Jay Z, Beyonce, his father Isaac Hayes as well as Smokey Robinson plus several others. His argument in support of the Grammys didn’t sit well with other notable celebrities and industry influencers which included rapper Snoop Dogg who stated the following:
“We don’t control the votes and I heard from a lil bird that snoop dogg got nominated for 18 grammys and have one. Zero so explain that one Mr. Hayes?? Fuck the Grammys and the system it was built on. They delinquent with my for fathers and as well it’s here nor there I’m the peoples champ and that’s my award!”
“I was robbed for a Grammy that was undeniably mine. Your logic doesn’t make sense from an artist perspective. You really didn’t make a point in your statement. Speaking on accolades that occurred 30 years ago in a world that has seen no change doesn’t make sense when people are taking a stand. Are you telling me some guy who makes a hit in his closet, that’s the clear winner, should already know who to shake hands with? Or are you saying no matter what talent the individual have, this is a certain class and the award shouldn’t be afforded to him?
Others have argued that non-white artists mostly win in smaller “racialized” categories. Beyoncé has 18 of her 22 within genre-specific categories, such as rap and R&B, categories that are primarily dominated by people of color. Ann Powers, an accredited writer for the National Public Radio, accused the 2017 Grammy Awards of systematic racism due to Chance the Rapper and Beyoncé being the only black artists who won televised awards. According to Powers, there is a general notion that music made with “real” instrumentation is superior to synth or sampled music, or that “stand-still” performances are superior to performances that incorporate dance.
The Grammys has also been criticized in the past for failing to nominate popular artists of color, such as The Weeknd. The Academy’s failure to nominate The Weeknd’s work came as a major surprise considering the widespread success of his 2020 album After Hours and its single, “Blinding Lights“. The track set numerous records, including spending 40 weeks within the top 10 in the US, 4 of which the song was at number one, and for spending 28 weeks in the top 5. After it received no nominations from the Recording Academy, The Weeknd wrote “The Grammys remain corrupt. You owe me, my fans and the industry transparency”.
Dennis Byron and music great Isaac Hayes at a Black Artists Rights event in Culver City, California 1995
J. Michael Butler wrote for Cambridge University about the late musical legend Isaac Hayes:
“Isaac Hayes provides a vital public figure through which scholars can analyze, evaluate, and more fully understand the comprehensive nature of the black freedom struggle as it progressed into the 1970s. Hayes merged the integrationist political objectives of mainstream civil rights organizations and leaders with the notions of racial pride, assertiveness, and autonomy that characterized the popular appeal of the black power movement. Hayes, through his “Black Moses” persona and LP of the same name, moved those freedom struggle promises and opportunities into the cultural realm, where he personified African American artistic self-determination.”
The question of the day is has Isaac Hayes son Isaac Hayes III been compromised as it relates to black independence and modern day civil rights struggles?
The wait is finally over with the release of Summer Walker’s “No Love” extended version featuring recording artists Sza and Cardi B . where the rap princess actually sings on the track. When the clock struck midnight fans of the artists began tweeting the song and praising all involved for not disappointing. Each artist brought their own melody which makes the song even better and the juxtapositioning of Summer and SZA in the music video was an extra added treat.
Many individuals have taken to the streets of downtown Minneapolis in order to protest the police killing of yet another Black man.
22-year-old, Amir Locke, was sleeping on the couch early Wednesday morning, February 2, when police conducted a “no-knock” search warrant, according to The Guardian. This allows police to enter private property without first alerting or announcing their presence to the occupants. This particular warrant was in relation to a homicide investigation led by detectives from the nearby Saint Paul Police Department. However, Locke was not named in the warrant and was not a suspect in the case being investigated. A lawyer from Locke’s family has since stated that he was in the apartment staying with his cousin. Minneapolis police have even acknowledged that it was unclear whether or not he was connected to that particular investigation.
Police body cam footage shows officers entering into the apartment, announcing their presence only after they are inside. An officer can be seen kicking the couch Locke was sleeping on, screaming at him to wake up. Wrapped in a blanket and seemingly confused, Locke can be seen moving around where a handgun becomes visible. Moments later, the officer who has now been identified as Mark Hanneman fired three fatal shots, killing Locke who was still wrapped up in his blanket.
Hundreds of protestors gathered together at Government Plaza on Saturday to express their dismay and demand racial justice, stating that Locke had a right to possess a weapon in his own home and was not even given a chance by officers to disarm himself. Citizens gathered together in below-freezing temperatures to show their support and state their demands which included: the resignation of the mayor and police chief, the arrest of officers involved and a ban on no-knock warrants. Mayor Jacob Frey eventually made the decision to put a temporary ban on no-knock search warrants, adding that he wanted to ensure the safety of both the public and officers.
Since the tragic incident, Hanneman has been placed on paid leave just as many other officers before him who have been accused of unlawful killings of citizens.
This is not the first time that Minneapolis police officers have come under fire for cases such as this. Earlier in 2020, George Floyd, an unarmed Black man, was killed by ex-officer, Derek Chauvin, who knelt on Floyd’s neck for more than nine minutes during an arrest where authorities suspected him of trying to pass a counterfeit $20 bill. As far as no-knock killings, Breonna Taylor was killed in March of 2020 when Louisville police officers raided her apartment, looking for two people suspected of selling drugs, neither of whom were Taylor. Officers fired more than 20 rounds into the apartment, with Taylor being shot at least eight times.
Hennepin County Judge Peter Cahill, who signed the no-knock warrant that led to the killing of Locke, even presided over the trial of ex police officer, Derek Chauvin, according to several Minnesota outlets.
Many are left outraged as racial injustices such as these happen far too often at the hand of police who have sworn to protect and serve our communities. The family of Amir Locke is being represented by civil rights attorney Ben Crump, who has previously worked with other families of police shooting victims such as the family of George Floyd.
Earlier this week on Monday, January 31, The View cohost, Whoopi Goldberg was suspended for remarks she made concerning the Holocaust.
The show’s hosts were discussing the recent decision of a Tennessee school to ban the 1980 book Maus which is a graphic novel by cartoonist Art Spiegelman that depicts Spiegelman interviewing his father about his experiences as a Polish Jew and Holocaust survivor.
During the discussion, Goldberg made claims that the Holocaust “was not about race,” but instead about “man’s inhumanity to man” and involved “two white groups of people. This sparked outrage amongst some viewers, causing Goldberg to be suspended from the show for two weeks on Tuesday, Feb. 1.
ABC News President, Kim Godwin, said Goldberg was asked “to take time to reflect and learn about the impact of her comments” throughout her suspension. This comes after Goldberg served as a special guest on The Late Show WithStephen Colbert and further explained the comments she made earlier in the day, where she eventually issued an apology on Twitter.
During the next day’s showing of The View, Goldberg even apologized for her comments, stating that she had made a poor choice of words. However, her apologies were not enough for some causing her to be suspended from the show.
Goldberg’s removal from the program has since drawn some critics who say the network’s decision to suspend the cohost was too rash and a missed learning opportunity for the network, as the Holocaust is a sensitive topic that is rarely discussed on air. This situation has sparked a “cancel culture” frenzy spurring strong emotions on both sides of the argument as to whether the liberal actor should be canceled or corrected about her comments.
Previous public figures who have come under fire for their comments concerning Jewish people include actor Nick Cannon who was fired from his MTV show Wild ’N Out by the program’s parent company ViacomCBS for comments they said “promoted hateful speech.”
In the episode of Cannon’s Class, the 41-year-old host interviewed former Public Enemy rapper Professor Griff who left the rap group in 1989 after claiming that Jewish people were “wicked.” Professor Griff then went on to state that he was talking about the Jewish people controlling the media and said “I’m hated now because I told the truth,” where Cannon agreed with him and even stated that “Semitic people are black people”, and that: “You can’t be anti-Semitic when we are the Semitic people.”
The question of the harshness of cancel culture quickly arises in Goldberg’s scenario as well as many others.
Editor of Jewcy, and online platform for young Jews, Isaac de Castro, took to Twitter to say that Goldberg’s comments reflected the inability of many Americans to understand race and racism outside of their prism, but also added “putting a grown woman in a time-out” does little to advance a reckoning with Jewish identity.
In recent times it appears as though the rules seem to be more enforced when it comes to Black public figures versus their non Black counterparts. In 2015 Kelly Osbourne said on an episode of The View about then presidential candidate Donald Trump, “If you kick every Latino out of this country, then who is going to be cleaning your toilet, Donald Trump?” Osborne questioned.
Other cohost of the show which included Whoopi Goldberg, Rosie Perez, Michelle Collins and Raven-Symoné can be heard disagreeing with Osborne, where she later began to backtrack her comments.
Perez even corrected Osbourne saying, “Latinos are not the only people that do that.”
Osbourne later apologized, however no dramatic action was taken against her such as removing her from the show.
Giuliana Rancic was reprimanded back in 2015 for her stereotypical comments on the hit show Fashion Police where she stated that actor Zenday’s dreadlocked hair looked like it “smells like patchouli oil and weed.”
Rancic later apologized, however was not faced with removal from the show. Beauty moguls such as Jeffree Star have even made a multitude of racist remarks as well as had problematic instances and yet still seem to be mostly unaffected by cancel culture.
However, stars like Roseanne Barr have faced the consequences of their ignorant, racist comments, by having their shows cancelled. The discussion of cancelling individuals rather than educating them becomes a problem when the person who made the offensive comments has apologized and is willing to learn from their mistake, just as Goldberg has done.
ABC has not made any further comment on whether or not they plan to keep the suspension in place as of late or what they will do once Goldberg returns to the show. Check out the link below to see some of the segment. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AhITfM4bqO8
With the spread of the Omicron virus that has made its way to America, NY Governor Kathy Hochul has taken measures to make it a state crime to make or produce fraudulent vaccination cards. This comes as as high-ranking NYPD cops have been caught doing just that.
NY Governor Kathy Hochul
This newest legislation that is intended to combat the spread of the virus was signed into law on Wednesday which included other pandemic-response related measures, makes the falsification of such documents a class A misdemeanor. The Feds have already made such related type of crimes a felony.
The new law also makes it a felony to access a computer to tamper with COVID-19 records so yes hacking into digital records or accessing them for the purpose of committing a crime is punishable by a prison sentence in New York State.
“We need to make sure we learn the lessons of the pandemic so we don’t make the same mistakes twice,” Hochul said in a statement after signing the bills. “These new laws will help us improve our response to the pandemic now, crack down on fraudulent use of vaccination records, and help us better understand the areas of improvement we need to make to our health care system so we can be even more prepared down the road.”
Vaccination Fraud Within New York City’s Police Department
Earlier this month, there were reports that EMS employees were selling fake vaccination cards to city workers after Mayor Bill de Blasio issued a mandate requiring all city employees to be vaccinated as a condition of keeping their jobs.
N.Y.P.D. Lt. Joseph Marsella and Capt. Desmond Morales allegedly caught using fake vaccination cards
A police lieutenant and captain was stripped of their badges and guns and placed on desk duty after someone snitched on them for using bogus vaccination cards. Prior to that discovery, Police commissioner Shea told reporters in a statement that he knew of “zero’ evidence of cops committing these types of crimes. Those cops have been identified as Lt. Joseph Marsella and Capt. Desmond Morales. They both are currently under investigation by NYPD’s internal affairs.

After accepting responsibility for federal payroll tax evasion, Shanga Hankerson, the son of legendary superstar Gladys Knight has agreed to a 2-year plea deal for not paying the government their monies. At the time of his arrest, Hankerson had owed the government in excess of 1 million dollars in back taxes and feds decided to close down all three of his restaurants that bare his famous mother’s name.
Shanga Hankerson
“Hankerson willfully disregarded his tax obligations for many years,” said Acting U.S. Attorney Kurt R. Erskine. “Payroll taxes fund social insurance programs, including Social Security and Medicare, and are a large source of revenue for the federal government. Employers who fail to comply with their legal obligations will be held accountable.”
“While ownership of a well-known restaurant in our community has its perks, it also comes with great responsibility,” said IRS Criminal Investigation Special Agent in Charge James E. Dorsey. “Paying taxes is a way to give back to the community, but unfortunately Hankerson chose to use those funds for other means. This sentencing emphasizes that all employers, big and small, have equal responsibility to collect, report, and pay over their payroll taxes.”
According to Acting U.S. Attorney Erskine, the charges and other information presented in court: In 1997, Hankerson opened his first restaurant, Gladys Knight’s Chicken and Waffles, in Atlanta. Over the next several years, Hankerson expanded the concept to at least three other locations in northern Georgia and Washington, D.C. Hankerson was the sole owner of the businesses that operated the restaurants.
As an employer, Hankerson’s companies were required to withhold from employees’ gross pay Federal Insurance Contributions Act (“FICA”) taxes, which represent Social Security and Medicare taxes, and federal income taxes. Collectively, these withheld taxes are referred to as “payroll taxes.” Specifically, employers are required to file, one month after the conclusion of the calendar quarter, an Employer’s Quarterly Federal Tax Return, setting forth the amount of payroll taxes due.
An individual is responsible for collecting, accounting for, and paying over the payroll taxes if he or she has the authority required to exercise significant control over the employer’s financial affairs. As the sole owner, Hankerson was the responsible person, and he had the responsibility to collect, truthfully account for, and pay over payroll taxes due. From at least 2012 to 2016, Hankerson failed to fully remit over $1 million in payroll taxes due.
Shanga Hankerson, 45, of Atlanta, Georgia, was sentenced by U.S. District Judge Michael L. Brown to serve two years in prison, one year of supervised release, and ordered to pay restitution of $1,039,310.65. Hankerson was convicted on July 21, 2021, after he pleaded guilty.
Gladys at happier times at the former Atlanta restaurant
Many had thought the singer herself owned the restaurant but it was later revealed during a lawsuit where she sued her son to remove her name off of all business records as she was only the pitch person for his brand. Former employees later told federal investigators that Hankerson used the money to pay for wild sex parties and illicit drugs.

After R & B superstar R. Kelly was convicted last month on federal sex racketeering charges, his supporters have been crying foul ever since and today many of them are planning to converge on his former Johns Creek home in the suburbs of Atlanta to show their support for the fallen singer.
Arthur D. Alston III professionally known as Choke The Joke, a former Rocafella Records Video Director and Real Housewives of Atlanta producer and social media influencer is spearheading the peaceful protest to bring more attention to what he and many others believes was a wrongful conviction. Choke’s goal is to bring more attention to the 1907 Mann Act that is viewed as a racist law that has been used in the past to prosecute men of color for dating white women.
Choke The Joke
Congress passes the Mann Act, which was ostensibly aimed at keeping young women from being lured into prostitution, but really offered a way to make a crime out of many kinds of consensual sexual activity.
The influencer was appointed by a cadre of Robert Sylvester Kelly’s supporters to expose some of the problems that lead up to the government convicting the singer on 9 felony counts which includes the discrepancies in witness testimony during the trial and how the Surviving R. Kelly documentary was laced in falsehoods that provided a platform for some whose sole purpose was to financially benefit from the singer’s name. From 3p-6pm today, hundreds of supporters is expected to converge on R. Kelly’s former neighborhood located in the 400 block of Old Homestead Trail, Johns Creek. According to Choke, the current owner of the home has no issue with their presence as long as they do not get on the property.
