(ThyBlackMan.com) Get ready to dive deep into the latest shocking developments coming out of Memphis, Tennessee. The murder trial of rapper Young Dolph, born Adolph Robert Thornton Jr., has everyone talking—and for good reason.

As the […]

(ThyBlackMan.com) Recent back-to-back financial enforcement actions taken by the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) underscore why the nation’s sole agency dedicated to consumer financial fairness retains broad and strong voter support. On September 11, TD Bank, the nation’s 10th largest commercial bank with 1,200 branches and 2,600 ATMs in 15 states and the District of Columbia was ordered for the second time by CFPB to pay restitution to thousands of consumers for illegally tarnishing credit reports […]

(ThyBlackMan.com) Last week, some of us took the time to remember that it was the 237th anniversary of our US Constitution, 17 September 1787. Sadly, I do not think most of this country or this republic was aware of this. The week prior, we had a presidential debate in the National Constitution Center, and no mention was made of the constitution. We heard about folks eating pets and boring rallies. […]

(ThyBlackMan.com) The Diddy scandal is once again shaking up the entertainment industry, but what’s most striking about the latest developments is the overwhelming silence from most celebrities. One voice that refuses to stay quiet is the always outspoken Katt Williams, who has long been known for not holding back when it comes to exposing the darker sides of Hollywood. Williams, never one to sugarcoat or avoid controversy, recently made waves […]

(ThyBlackMan.com) The R&B legend Usher Raymond has been trending on social media for reasons that had nothing to do with his music, dancing, or upcoming performances. Instead, fans and gossip blogs alike were buzzing about his now-infamous social media debacle on X (formerly known as Twitter). On Sunday, September 22nd, Usher’s X account appeared to be wiped clean of all its previous content, which sent social media into a frenzy. […]

(ThyBlackMan.com) We all know that when celebrities talk, people listen. Whether it’s about their latest projects, personal lives, or their take on political matters, their voices carry significant weight. That’s precisely why it’s so important for public figures to be careful when speaking on sensitive topics, especially in the political arena. Janet Jackson, a beloved music icon with decades of influence, recently learned this the hard way after making misinformed […]

(ThyBlackMan.com) What kind of spiritual growth have you experienced during the past year? I strongly believe we should ask ourselves that question. If we are serious about growing spiritually, we must at times measure our progress. That’s the only way we will know where we are in our quest to reach spiritual maturity. Of course, I am assuming that you have that for a goal. It is a fact that […]

(ThyBlackMan.com) Cynically running out the clock has been the overarching principle of the entire abbreviated 105-day presidential campaign of Vice President Kamala Harris — ever since President Joe Biden, at the 11th hour, dropped out in July. Harris seems unwilling or unable to answer any impromptu question that she has not been previously prepped for. Her answers at the debate were memorized and canned. They never addressed the questions asked. […]

(ThyBlackMan.com) Does it make any difference to the Palestinian people whether it is Harris or Trump who wins? I think it does, big time. I get it on why many Palestinians, Arab Americans and strong progressives in the United States are so anguished and angry at the refusal of the Biden Administration to stop sending weapons of war to Israel, prolonging unnecessarily the agonizing suffering in Gaza. I feel the […]
