To be completely honest with you, I’m not sure I have the answer for what makes the days begin one way or another […]

(ThyBlackMan.com) If you voted for Donald Trump last November because you believed he’d increase economic freedom, it’s safe to say you were fooled. Following a reckless tariff barrage, the White House and its allies are preparing a new wave of tax-code gimmickry that has more in common with progressive social engineering than pro-growth reform.

And right in the heart of that sound? Snoop Dogg. From the first time I heard his silky drawl slide across a Dr. Dre beat, I knew the game had changed. Snoop didn’t just rap—he glided.

(ThyBlackMan.com) There’s something timeless about a Nas record. The moment that beat drops and his voice cuts through the track, you know you’re not just listening — you’re entering a world. His flow rides like jazz, his lyrics hit like gospel, and the message? Always deeper than the surface.

(ThyBlackMan.com) At least six congressional Republicans are demanding a radical fix in the 2017 tax law targeting residents of high-income states. If they don’t get it, they may sink Donald Trump’s tax-and-spending package, his “one big beautiful bill.” And who can blame these reps from New York, New Jersey and California?
