(ThyBlackMan.com) There’s something magical about George Duke’s music that’s hard to put into words—but you feel it. Whether he’s laying down a slick funk groove or caressing a melody on the piano, Duke has a way of pulling you into his world. He wasn’t just a master of jazz, funk, and R&B—he was a storyteller, a mood-setter, and a fearless sonic explorer. For those of us who’ve spent late nights […]

(ThyBlackMan.com) “It’s sort of Trump derangement syndrome, I guess they call it,” President Donald Trump said, in explaining the hostility that overcomes veterans of his administration. Are they crazed because of what they’ve seen or what they’ve done? Or were they always crazed, which is why they were there in the first place? In Elon Musk’s case, it is clearly all of the above. Many books will be written about […]

(ThyBlackMan.com) “He is not the right guy. He doesn’t seem to have the sort of character that reflects well on the United States.” The “right guy” that mega billionaire Elon Musk referred to during the 2016 presidential campaign was then GOP presidential candidate Trump. Musk did not elaborate on what he meant by not having the right character to sit in the Oval Office. But his jaundiced view of Trump […]

(ThyBlackMan.com) When we talk about the golden era of R&B, especially that infectious New Jack Swing wave of the late ’80s and early ’90s, Christopher Williams often flies just a little under the radar—but he really shouldn’t. With a voice that blends raw passion and smooth delivery, and a catalog filled with emotionally rich slow jams and feel-good grooves, Williams was a key player in shaping the sound of that […]

(ThyBlackMan.com) Actions speak louder than words! That’s the cliché! But is it really only a cliché or is their age-old wisdom in the phrase? People tend to remember more about what you do than what you say. Just look down the hallowed halls of history to bear this out. Hence, with the political campaign machine beginning to ramp up for another season, many incumbents will begin to face this truth […]

(ThyBlackMan.com) The US is not the only country in which the issue of immigration has become a hot button political concern. It is a major concern for many European countries. Various attempts to halt what is called illegal immigration, that is the act of entering a country outside of a nation’s established legal framework for entering a country, are being sought. In addition, similar to the efforts of the current […]

(ThyBlackMan.com) Waiting is a test of patience but waiting on God is much more than that. Everyone at times has to wait and the normal thing is to fidget, look at our watches, sometimes stamp our feet if we are waiting too long while standing, cross and re-cross our legs while sitting and sometimes we do the disadvantageous and decide to wait no longer. But we are not all alike […]

(ThyBlackMan.com) May 25 marked five years since the murder of George Floyd. Floyd’s death should never stop being a catalyst for social change. His death illustrates how a typical, nonviolent encounter with law enforcement can go wrong, resulting in another needless death of an innocent person. His death revealed the depth of our commitments to humanity as individuals and a nation. For more than nine minutes, while police officer Derek […]

(ThyBlackMan.com) It is not often believers find themselves in an unsolvable, or near-unsolvable quandary, especially one of deep spiritual significance, but alas, it happens, and we are forced to twist, and turn, and sometimes complain, until we figure it out. People talk, preach and write rather glibly about God’s silence, and what to do when God is silent, and we have witnessed some who dare to tell God when He […]
