Why Lil Mama's 'Sausage' Is Exactly What Hip Hop Needs

Yesterday WorldStarHipHop premiered Lil Mama's 'Sausage' video and some media outlets are reporting it as the laughing stock of social media, but I disagree and here's why. Hip hop traditionally started as party music and at the core of those party jams was a sense of having fun. We need that more than ever now in hip hop today, and I feel Lil Mama captured that essence of putting yourself out there and just having fun. I don't think she was trying or is expecting to win any awards for this song it's just to bring back playfulness in hip hop.

Now don't get me wrong the song started off strong but by the time it got to the Mary J Blige-esque singing, it fell off. Keeping it real I felt the song was all over the place but it stayed true to the party jams of the golden era of hip hop and made you want to get up and dance. I do believe I may have heard her paying homage to legends in the game as well which is often overlooked today.

The problem as I see it with hip hop music today is we've allowed corporations to control a culture they care nothing about and like fools putting on a show for good ol' "massa" our representatives of the culture make music that entertains them but harms our people. It's common knowledge that music promoting the 3 D's (death, destruction, drugs) get constant air play but songs that uplift our people get no burn on the radio. So instead of tearing down our sister, why not understand the bigger picture in what she was trying to achieve and build her up? Yes I know her song didn't promote senseless killing, destructive drug usage or misogynistic behavior, and it will never get a Grammy but it did capture the true essence of hip hop and for that she deserves her props.

Oh yeah, and if by any chance Lil Mama is reading this, flip the script one time on your haters and put the original brother who started the sausage movement and the people you paid homage to on the remix and shut ish down. Salute!

Think Tanks Tuesday 5/26: Are Interracial Marriages Biblical?

Not everyone agrees with interracial marriages. Some say it brings unnecessary hardships on the children these relationships produce. Some give no logical explanation what so ever as to why they disagree with these relationships, and some go so far as to defend their opinion attempting to use the Bible; but is their view biblical? Check out how one pastor answers the question, 'are interracial marriages biblicial':

[The reason for Piper’s podcast on interracial marriage was because he was asked by a white female listener if there was anything in the Bible about a white woman marrying a black man.
Piper said in the podcast: “There are two basic restrictions on marriage in the Bible: Number one, she should marry a man. Number two, he should be a Christian.” Piper also dealt with the issue of interracial marriage in his book “Bloodlines: Race, Cross and the Christian.”
Piper continued that those who say that interracial marriage is not allowed in the Old Testament because God forbade the Israelites to marry people of other nations are reading it wrong.
According to Piper, the reason God forbade marriages outside was not because of racial discrimination but to keep the Israelites from intermarrying with those of a different faith, who worshiped other Gods.
Piper gave the illustration of Solomon, who took foreign wives and ultimately they took his heart away from God. Piper concluded his APJ message by advising women to marry a man who is strong in faith and to pray to God for guidance to lead them to the right man, whatever his color.
Another APJ that was widely listened to was Piper’s message “On Cussing,” which has been heard by more than 17,000 people.] source

Motivational Mondays 5/18: Loving Your Neighbor

We've all heard that we should love our neighbor as we love ourselves, but do we truly understand the principle behind that command? To love one's own self is to want the best for their life - the best education, lifestyle, career, etc. That same high regard and consideration is extended to our loved ones automatically. We're quick to see people we love (who love us back) as our neighbors, but drag our feet when it comes to loving the ones who hate and hurt us.

In fact, we want to hurt them just as much as they've hurt us. It's hard to believe that we're expected to sincerely love those who make it their life's mission to maliciously attack us and bring us down. What purpose does it serve to love those who openly hate us? The answer is profound in its simplicity. Our interceding prayers and genuine acts of kindness towards those who hurt us have the potential to be the catalyst for a positive change in their lives providing them an opportunity to turn from their hatred towards Christ. We plant the seeds of love and Christ does the rest.

By exercising this difficult task, we too are changed. Strengthened, humbled and refined are just a few ways our character is changed and all of this brings glory to God. So as you start your week, think on these things and love all your neighbors.

Think Tank Tuesday 5/12/15: Zimmerman Shooting, Misfortune or Karma?

Child killer George Zimmerman came pretty close to death on Monday as he was shot at in what is being reported as a road rage incident. Check out the video below:

Since the 2012 slaying of Trayvon Martin, Zimmerman has had several run-ins with the law. Is this recent road rage incident merely an unfortunate incident (even for such an infamous person like Zimmerman) or is this karma's way of getting him ready to pay for the senseless killing of unarmed Trayvon?

Think Tank Tuesday 5/5/15: Is Anyone Tired Of Floyd Mayweather's Foolery Yet?

picture source: autoevolution.com

The fight may be over but Floyd Mayweather Jr's coonery continues. I'm a strong believer in people having the right to do whatever their heart desires with their hard earned money, but even I have to draw the line when it comes to Mr. Mayweather.

Anytime a person films themself burning money, someone has to say something! Just think, there are people in this world who could make good use of the money he so carelessly burned.

The night of the Mayweather/Pacquiao bout he had a duffle bag full of money to the sound of $250,000 - oh it was for a victory celebration.

If you don't think that's bad check out the following Floyd fun facts:

• Has 100 cars and 2 private jets

• Bought a gold plated golf buggy

• Spends $4,000/day on food

• Shelled out $450,000 on a bespoke Mercedes

• Bought a Mercedes and left it at an airport for 2 months because he forgot about it

• Spent $125,000 on a necklace & earrings for his 13 year old daughter

• Spends approx $6,000 on underwear since he doesn't like to wear the twice

• Has a $20,000 golf cart

 The list goes on, but you get the point. What's the big deal? I think the following quote by Dr. Boyce Watkins sums it up beautifully:

[“It’s certainly Floyd’s right to do what he wants with his money,” said Dr Watkins ...But the idea of black people giving all of their wealth back to the white man in order to show off for can only be defined as counter-productive coonery. Manny Pacqiao actually uses his money to feed his community, so Floyd may want to take notice of what a real man does when he gets that kind of wealth. That car he threw away could be getting a single mother to work every morning or putting a young person through school. There’s no pride in giving away black wealth.”] source

Motivational Mondays 5/4/15: Always Do Your Best!

What do you do when you work at a job you dread? What do you do when your kindness goes unnoticed or isn't reciprocated? What about when you feel overworked and unappreciated by even loved ones? Believe it or not the answer is to keep doing what you're doing and always to the best of your ability, to find out why check out the video below:

The principle behind this week's motivational message is that no matter what you do great or small, work or play, eat or drink, do it all to the best of your ability as if you were doing it for God himself because when you give your best effort you glorify God. Even when it seems like your efforts go unnoticed by anyone, keep giving your best because God notices, and though it may not seem like it, you will be rewarded for your selfless act of doing the best you can even under to most trying circumstances.
