(ThyBlackMan.com) Every business has a rough day. Sometimes, it’s a missed deadline. Sometimes, it’s a furious email about poor service. Client disputes happen even when you think you’ve done everything right. It can be a nightmare when they do happen. Some clients lose their bedside manner and go all out on giving you hell. The trick isn’t avoiding them. It’s knowing how to handle them like a pro. Read on […]

(ThyBlackMan.com) On the eve of our nation’s 249th birthday, a Gallup poll finds that only 58% of Americans feel “extremely” or “very” proud of their country. This is a new low in the 25 years Gallup has been asking this question, and the reasons are not hard to divine. We are led by a monomaniacal vulgarian who endangers all we hold dear — all while enjoying lock-step fealty from the […]

(ThyBlackMan.com) When it comes to soul music that never goes stale, The Chi-Lites are a name that deserves a spot in every vinyl crate, playlist, or midnight radio session. Hailing from Chicago, these harmony kings didn’t just ride the wave of the ‘70s soul boom — they helped shape it. Their songs were like pages torn straight from a diary: confessional, raw, tender, and sometimes politically sharp. You didn’t just […]

(ThyBlackMan.com) If you’re an R&B lover — the kind who treasures real stories, powerhouse vocals, and music that hits you in your chest — then you already know Kelly Price is a name you don’t skip over. But in a world flooded with quick hits and short-lived trends, it’s easy to forget just how many deep cuts and classic singles she’s gifted us. I always say: when life hits hard, […]

(ThyBlackMan.com) This article is written from the perspective of a coach, educator, and overall sports enthusiast. Without any doubt, this writer would say that Dawn Staley is by far the best basketball coach in the world today — not only women’s basketball, but basketball in general. And yes, that also means I am sure of my vote and that she should be the next head coach of the New York […]

(ThyBlackMan.com) When we talk about the DNA of hip-hop, three words always come up: James Brown. Breakbeats. From the moment DJs like Kool Herc and Grandmaster Flash first looped those funk grooves at Bronx block parties, the Godfather of Soul became something more — the Godfather of Hip-Hop’s heartbeat. It’s easy to forget just how revolutionary those early moments were. James Brown didn’t just bring the funk — he brought […]

(ThyBlackMan.com) The forced resignation of James E. Ryan as president of the University of Virginia at the hands of the Trump administration marks a dangerous precedent for American higher education. The federal government’s ultimatum that Ryan step down as a condition for resolving a civil rights investigation into UVA’s diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) programs is not just a governmental overreach—it is a direct threat to the independence of public […]

(ThyBlackMan.com) Few voices in R&B history can match the velvet smoothness and emotional honesty of Luther Vandross. For many of us, his music isn’t just part of our playlists — it’s part of our lives. He gave us first dances at weddings, heartbreak anthems for lonely nights, and those songs you put on when you want to feel loved, even if it’s just for a few minutes at a time. […]

(ThyBlackMan.com) Elon Musk warned that if Republicans passed their big domestic policy bill, he would form a new “America Party” to primary those who voted for it. He doesn’t need a new party. He has his old one, the Democrats. Many Democrats have grown to intensely dislike Musk, and they have their reasons. His prancing around with a chainsaw as he gleefully fired thousands of valued federal employees was ugly. […]
