(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 […]

(ThyBlackMan.com) Nicki Minaj, known for her unfiltered persona and bold stance on industry politics, has once again set the internet ablaze. This time, the self-proclaimed “Queen of Rap” isn’t holding back as she unleashes a series of fiery accusations and candid remarks aimed directly at some of the music industry’s most influential figures, including Jay-Z, TIDAL, and, in a twist, even the embattled Diddy. Fans and spectators alike have been […]

(ThyBlackMan.com) The Country Music Awards (CMAs) are a long-standing institution in the world of country music, known for celebrating the genre’s rich history and highlighting its biggest stars. Over the years, this genre has evolved, with some artists pushing boundaries and redefining what country music can be. Yet, one name that has recently sparked heated debates and unexpected controversy in this scene is none other than Beyoncé. Her new album, […]

(ThyBlackMan.com) In the world of hip-hop, Diddy has long reigned as one of the most influential figures. From the heights of his Bad Boy Records empire to being a cultural icon, his image has been one of success, charm, and a good-time party king. But behind this facade lies a darker reality that’s slowly coming to light, particularly in the wake of his recent legal troubles. With every passing day, […]

(ThyBlackMan.com) “Don’t’ worry I’ve got you’re back!” How comforting are those words? We’d all like to hear them, especially when it comes to the difficulties and challenges we have to face. However, in our polarized society, we are driven more and more to be as independent as possible. We are encouraged to stand on our own two feet and take charge of our lives. We are pushed and prodded to […]

(ThyBlackMan.com) In the world of rap, not every tour is destined to be a sellout, and unfortunately, Sexyy Red’s latest tour is proving that even the hottest social media personalities aren’t immune to the harsh realities of live performance. It appears that Sexyy Red’s tour is facing a rough patch, leading to speculation that the entire thing could be on the verge of cancellation. Rumors are swirling that Sexyy Red […]

(ThyBlackMan.com) (NOTE: All referenced scripture is from the King James Version (KJV) of the Holy Bible) First, let me say that I am an Evangelical Christian, having accepted Jesus Christ as my personal Lord and Savior in my early teens. I have also worked with two international Evangelical ministries, performed in gospel singing groups and participated in weekly Bible studies. These “works” have done nothing to justify me to God […]

(ThyBlackMan.com) In the early 2010s, there was heavy talk around “The Talk”. Following the death of Trayvon Martin in February 2012 and the trial that followed, there was a greater spotlight on violent incidents towards Black people in the U.S. Of course, cable news tends to have a lot to say each time a Black man or woman is gunned down. It tends to stay in the wheelhouse with mass […]

(ThyBlackMan.com) We are living through Donald Trump’s third consecutive run for the presidency, and nothing should surprise us during this year’s campaign. For those of us who are not Trump supporters, we should be used to the name-calling, lies, racist attacks, bullying, hypocrisy, corruption, and total incompetence displayed by the Republican nominee. I have Trump fatigue, and my personal decision to vote for Vice President Kamala Harris was already made prior […]
