http://ift.tt/eA8V8J James Baldwin bravely wrote from a unique vantage point as a Black man during a time where race, class and even sexuality were topics typically avoided in favor of comfort. In a new documentary, I Am Not Your Negro , new footage has been unearthed of the late writer speaking on his connection with a rapidly changing America . Vulture exclusively reports: James Baldwin spent the last years of his life working on Remember This House, a book about the lives and deaths of Medgar Evers, Malcolm X, and Martin Luther King Jr. Baldwin died before finishing the project, but his words have found a new home in Raoul Peck’s Oscar-nominated documentary I Am Not Your Negro, which mixes text from Baldwin’s manuscript (narrated by Samuel L. Jackson) with archival footage of the late author to present a portrait of blackness in America. In this exclusive clip from the film, Baldwin explores his own relationship with American history. Baldwin’s work has enjoyed a resurgence...

http://ift.tt/2jA8Emy PUMA’s ascension to top 5 brand recognition got another jolt as it announces an upcoming collaboration with “lifestyle specialist Emory “Vegas” Jones and Roc-A-Fella co-founder Kareem “Biggs” Burke . For Vegas Jones the new line which has been dubbed the “ Bet On Yourself ” collection was inspired by his own personal upbringing and the lesson he’s learned from his own grind. “ Where I grew up, there was a sense of urgency instilled in us from birth. If we didn’t make it big and make it fast we wouldn’t be anything, therefore gambling was always seen as quick route to success but nobody ever told us that the only betting we should ever do is on ourselves. If you don’t set goals for yourself, other people will always run your life. ” You might find the name Emory Jones familiar since he’s one of Jay Z’s day ones (see “Do U Wanna Ride” from Kingdom Come ) and hustling buddies who did time for drug trafficking. Now on the straight narrow, Vegas is clear...

http://ift.tt/eA8V8J The jokes truly do write themselves. Derek Fisher reportedly had his five NBA championship rings stolen in a burglary last night, so course Twitter is blaming Matt Barnes for the crime.  By now, you’re probably aware that the former teammates basically hate each other due to Fisher’s bro-code violation of getting with Barnes’ ex-wife. Now, Karma is once again proving she is not to be trifled with. Reports TMZ Sports : Derek Fisher told police someone broke into his L.A. home and stole more than $300,000 worth of valuable jewelry … including his 5 NBA Championship rings … TMZ Sports has learned. Law enforcement sources tell us the NBA legend reported a burglary at his home Monday morning — telling police he left the home at 7:30 AM and when he returned 3 hours later, it was clear someone had been inside. We’re told officials believe the perp got into the house through a side door — and went for his jewelry. Among the stolen goods was Fisher’s 5 NBA ri...

http://instagr.am/p/BP78axHlVJs/media/?size=l Chris Brown continues to give people reasons to question his sanity. The talented and troubled singer says he enjoys stalking his exes. Brown logged onto his favorite platform of expression, Instagram, to share a video explaining why he’s “one of them n*ggas” that will hop fences and blow your phone up after a break-up. In the brief clip, a presumably intoxicated Brown says: “Ladies, y’all be complaining about n*ggas being, like, stalkers and in love with y’all, kinda crazy and sh*t and you get tired of it,” Brown said in the clip. “Well, guess what? I’m one of them n*ggas! If I love you, b*tch, ain’t nobody gonna have you. I’m gonna make you miserable. I’m going to chase that n*gga out and I’m gonna chase yo ass around, and it’s done.” In case you’re not caught up on the list of Brown’s transgressions, people are still mad at him for attacking Rihanna and throwing several tantrums over the last 10 years. Admitting to stalking ex...

http://ift.tt/2ko2BWN The three stripes isn’t rocking with Cheeto Jesus. adidas is the latest brand to publicly denounce Donald Trump’s travel ban on immigrants from seven countries with Muslim majorities. adidas sent a company-wide email making their stance clear, and followed it with an official press statement. “Our company is built on the core belief that ‘Through sport, we have the power to change lives.’ Sport has shown in the past and will show over and over again in the future that it can bring people together from all over the world—regardless of their nationality, gender, age, religion or sexual orientation,’ said Adidas pres reps Lauren Lamkin on Monday, per Sole Collector . The statement continues. “We at Adidas are proud to bring this positive power of sport to life every day at work and we cherish the diverse, international workforce we have around the globe. Some companies have already voiced their concerns about this decision and we join them in their call for...

Rick Ross pulls out all the stops for his birthday celebrations and the 2017 edition was no different. The guest list was a who’s who of rap royalty including fellow Aquarius Big Boi and former rival Jeezy.

http://instagr.am/p/BP6DEf3D4Y0/media/?size=l The hate triangle between Matt Barnes, his ex-wife Gloria Govan, and her current boo Derek Fisher just doesn’t seem to go away. After Bleacher Report put out a post of Derek Fisher commenting on part of his legacy being attached to breaking the bro-code, Matt Barnes was quick to throw some dark side shade. Peep the post below (and Barnes’ commentary on the flip. Obviously, there’s no love lost between Derek Fisher and Matt Barnes. At lease not on Matt’s part. In case you forgot Matt Barnes left his Memphis Grizzlies training facility and drove 95 miles just to put them paws on his former road dog after finding out that Fisher was shacking up with his ex-wife. Unfortunately, the incident had Derek Fisher looking funny under the light and his bro-code reputation has never been the same ever since. — Photo: WENN.com The post Matt Barnes Takes Another Shot At Derek Fisher appeared first on Hip-Hop Wired . from Hip Hop Wired ...

http://ift.tt/2kdy1N3 Toronto coffee shop Run and Gun Coffee are selling a Tupac -inspired latte that pokes fun at him getting shot. When Tupac Shakur got shot five times in 1994 and emerged from it, and jail time, a year later a stronger force than before, it had the world thinking that he was invincible. Hell, he even rapped about himself on his song “Amerikaz Most Wanted” when he said “they wonder how I live with five shots, n*ggas is hard to kill on my block.” Even to this day, getting shot is weaved into rappers marketing plans hoping that getting hit, will get them a hit. But as we all know, ‘Pac didn’t survive his second shooting in 1996, making his boasts of surviving one ambush all but irrelevant. At the same time, he became an urban legend with people saying he was still alive because he did survive the first one. Which brings us to now. Run and Gun has a coffee offering named after ‘Pac. No, it doesn’t have a Hennessey or Alize shot in it. Instead, it has “five shot...

http://ift.tt/eA8V8J The Notorious B.I.G.’s (actually Puff Daddy’s) “Victory” is one of the late, great rapper’s most dynamic performances. So when Stevie J came through, we wanted to ask him about creating that masterpiece, instead of his reality show and real life drama .  The Bad Boy Hitman’s eyes lit up when recalling putting the No Way Out standout together with Biggie Smalls and Jadakiss. “I was listening to the Rocky soundtrack just to get some inspiration and I’m hearing these horns,” Stevie J told Hip-Hop Wired. “Big poked his head in and was like, ‘What’s that?’ I was like that’s it right there. He was like, ‘Yo, that’s it. Loop that up.'” It took a few days to bring at all together. He adds, “Big puts some rhymes on it. Jada wrote some rhymes on it. Then Puff laid the Jada rhymes on it. Then Busta came in and hyped it all up. That was a masterpiece right there.” What, you ain’t know Jadakiss “ghostwrote” those bars? Stevie also recalled linking up with M...

http://ift.tt/eA8V8J A Tribe Called Quest is dope, regardless if any organization chooses to recognize that or not. Nevertheless. the Hip-Hop giants will be performing at the Grammys this year.  According to Pitchfork , Tribe will be hitting the stage alongside R&B crooner Anderson .Paak and rocker Dave Grohl. .Paak, who is signed to Dr. Dre’s Aftermath, appeared on ATCQ’s latest album, We got it from Here… Thank You 4 Your Service. It’s likely they’ll be performing “Movin Backward” off the aforementioned album, with Grohl filling in for Jack White, who played on a few cuts on the project. Although Phife Dawg has passed away, Jarobi has officially returned to the fold while Consequence and Busta Rhymes are also on this new Tribe edition that still includes The Abstract and Ali Shaheed Muhammad. LL Cool J won’t be hosting after what seems like 20 years. Instead, this year’s show will be hosted by James Corden. The Grammys air live on February 12 from the Staples Cent...

http://ift.tt/eA8V8J Zendaya has been diversifying her brand by way of her Daya By Zendaya clothing, which caters to a wide range of sizes from 0 to 22. An aspiring young plus-size model had her dreams come true when the actress came to her defense after an Internet troll tried to body shame her. Last Friday, the K.C. Undercover star retweeted a meme from Twitter user @StarpowerXCV in where he ridiculed model @_illestCee over her weight. In the caption, Zendaya essentially blasted @StarpowerXCV and then asked her fans to help track down @_illestCee to make the offer. “Stumbling across this is stupid sh-t, she is fine as hell head to toe and [guaranteed] [doesn’t] know you exist my man. As for her, slay on queen,” she said in her initial tweet , which was retweeted over 60,000 times.  From there, the search was on and below, we’ve collected the exchange as it happens.  However, a Twitter user under the name @Urdelusional17 has unearthed @_illestCee’s old ...

http://ift.tt/eA8V8J Dave Chappelle made another surprise appearance. This time he popped up at Chance The Rapper’s “Open Mike” event in Chicago. “Open Mike” is an every-once-in-a-while show that Chance puts on to give budding artists in Chicago and chance to perform in front of a crowd. The comedian showed up to give an impromptu performance as well inspire the artists that were in attendance. Among the gems Dave dropped was one about remembering what thing “feel like.” “We need young artists out there,” he says. “People come up to me all the time and they say ‘Dave, you tell it like it is.’ No I dont. Everyday, I don’t know what it is. But I tell it like it feels like. People know so much information now, but they forget what things feel like. So the job of the artist is to remind them of themselves. Get them thinking again, get them feeling again.” He went to tell the audience “you see who our president is” and that they are living in a very “important time.” Thank you @...

http://ift.tt/eA8V8J Acting Attorney General Sally Yates , a holdover from the Obama administration, took a public stance against President Donald Trump ‘s so-called “ Muslim Ban .” In a whirlwind set of events since Yates’ statement, Trump fired Yates Monday night (Jan. 30) and the reaction across social media has been robust. Trump’s executive order has been dominating the news cycle since the weekend, and protests against the measure have been ramping up across the nation. Yates issued a memo to her staff that Justice Department lawyers should not defend any challenges to President Trump’s ban and said that she didn’t think the executive order was lawful. “At present, I am not convinced that the defense of the Executive Order is consistent with these responsibilities nor am I convinced that the Executive Order is lawful,” Yates said in the memo. “For as long as I am the Acting Attorney General, the Department of Justice will not present arguments in defense of the Executive Orde...

http://ift.tt/eA8V8J Drake previewed some new music at the Amsterdam date for his The Boy Meets World tour. Drake treated the sold out crowd at the Ziggo Dome to some new music and it looks like they enjoyed it. The new, yet-to-be-identified song is darker that what we’ve come to expect from Drake. It sounds like some late-90s Three Six Mafia production combined with the Migos -inspired flow that many rapper are using right now. The first verse is obviously Drake, but many fans are scrambling online to find out who the second verse belongs to. Some are claiming it is Florida rapper XXXTentacion , who has millions of fans on Soundcloud but has yet to break out of the underground. Others are accusing Drake of mimicking XXX’s flow and making it his own. The audio is hard to hear, but it does sound like whoever is rapping the second verse does shoutout XXX, so it could be him after all. If it is, this could be another instance of Drake “discovering” a new artist and co-sign...

http://ift.tt/2jyMEIM Just like that, Pharrell Williams went from the daddy of one to a father of four. The producer/designer and his wife, Helen Lasichanh , welcomed a set of triplets.  It turns out Lasichanh gave birth in early January. Reports Vanity Fair : When I saw music producer turned Chanel model Pharrell Williams at the French fashion house’s ritzy fashion show in Paris in December (held at the Ritz, appropriately enough), I could have sworn there was something special about the look in his eye. Now Vanity Fair can exclusively explain why: his wife, Helen Lasichanh , was pregnant with not one, not two, but three children. She gave birth to triplets earlier in January. Williams’s rep declined to provide the babies’ names or sexes, but confirmed that mother and children are “healthy and happy.” (The triplets will join Williams and Lasichanh’s firstborn son, Rocket , who is eight years old.) Talk about keeping a secret. Congrats to Pha-Real and Helen Lasichanh. ...

http://ift.tt/eA8V8J Phife Dawg famously (if you’re part of the culture for real) rapped, “I’ll never let a statue tell me how nice I am.” Nevertheless, many Hip-Hop heads consider a Grammy Award to be peak acknowledgment of their talents, but Kanye West and Drake are skipping this year’s ceremony.  According to TMZ , Yeezy and the 6 God, as well as Justin Bieber, aren’t going to be there despite dozens of nominations between them. Drake has 8 nominations but we’re told he also doesn’t plan to be there … we’re told he’ll be on tour in Europe. As for Kanye, who’s got 8 noms , he received 21 Grammys in the past, but he always lost when he went head-to-head against a white singer. Our sources say it’s not like the Oscars … there’s no real anger, it’s just that a lot of younger singers think the Grammys are out of touch and arguably irrelevant. On the one hand, plenty of artists gets sales boosts after hitting the Grammy stage. On the other, the Grammys have long been consi...

http://ift.tt/eA8V8J Trayvon Martin ‘s parents, Tracy Martin and Sybrina Fulton, reveal ambitions to run for political offices.  After seeing first hand how local politics can affect how much one person’s life matters, or not, Martin and Fulton are seriously considering running for office in the communities. In an interview with USA Today’s Capital Download , the two of them spoke on the progress they have seen when it comes to racial justice in America since their son’s death. But they also voiced concerns about how all of that can be washed away under a Donald Trump presidency. “Since Trayvon’s death, we saw how divided the country is on these issues and we saw how the country can come together,” Martin said. “You have those that are for uniting the country and you have those that want to be apart. And what this new presidency does, it takes those that want to be apart and it puts them right in the position where they can say, ‘We’ll change the laws, and we’ll make it toughe...

http://ift.tt/eA8V8J LeBron James has had enough of Charles Barkley . King James slammed the Round Mound of Rebound something awful, calling the Hall of Famer a “hater” and much worse.  It started when Barkley critiqued James for publicly asking the Cleveland Cavaliers front office for another playmaker on TNT’s  Inside The NBA. Barkley said LeBron’s comments were “inappropriate” and “whiny.” He added, “The Cleveland Cavaliers have given him everything he wanted.” Barkley also said he’s a “great player and a great guy.” Well, James let the chopper spray on ESPN. “He’s a hater,” James told ESPN  on Monday night (Jan. 30). “What makes what he says credible? Because he’s on TV?” That was James heating up. He added, “I’m not going to let him disrespect my legacy like that. I’m not the one who threw somebody through a window. I never spit on a kid. I never had unpaid debt in Las Vegas. I never said, ‘I’m not a role model.’ I never showed up to All-Star Wee...

When you have pockets as deep as Rick Ross, we don’t think he has to “think” she likes him.

http://instagr.am/p/BP5Hk5pBLnP/media/?size=l You knew Barack Obama wasn’t going to walk away and say nothing while America starts to look funny in the light. The now former POTUS issued a statement slamming his successor’s travel ban and giving his blessing to the protests that have arisen in its wake.  On Friday (Jan. 27), Cheeto Jesus signed an executive order banning immigrants from seven countries with Muslim majorities . Over the weekend protests sprang up international airports across the country as travelers were detained. A federal judge issued a stay on Trump’s executive order, and many lawyers volunteered at airports to help detainees, but the controversy continues. Today (Jan. 30), Obama issued a statement, his first since leaving office, via his official spokesman. “The president fundamentally disagrees with the notion of discriminating against individuals because of their faith or religion,” said Obama’s spokesman, Kevin Lewis.

http://ift.tt/eA8V8J Stephen Jackson has shared yet another crazy story about what it’s really like being an NBA player. Marijuana use in the NBA has been a topic that has picked up a lot of traction in recent months as more states where NBA teams are located have legalized marijuana use for medicinal and recreational purposes. Even though these laws can keep the police from arresting you depending on the quantity that you have and where you’re smoking it, it still doesn’t keep you from getting fired from your job if your employer prohibits drug use on the job. The NBA is one such employer. They test their players throughout the season and will suspend them if they fail. But, that fear of suspension has not kept players from smoking. In a roundtable discussion on ESPN, former NBA Champion and All-Star guard Chauncey Billups said that many of his teammates not only smoked during the season, but right before the game. Sometimes, he admits, it made them play better. Former p...

http://ift.tt/2jOrg3o Donald Trump’s xenophobic actions  against Muslim countries have been deplorable, to say the least. While those living in an “alternative” reality are applauding Cheeto Jesus for keeping his hateful promises, most of them tend to forget that some of their favorite entertainers are in fact Muslim. For every Muhammad Ali who wears their religion on their sleeve, there’s a few One Direction member that doesn’t (not that they have to).

http://ift.tt/eA8V8J The Canadian province of Quebec is reeling after a harrowing shooting attack at a mosque in Quebec City left six dead and eight others wounded. The country’s prime minister blasted the shooting as a terrorist attack against Muslims and the timing of the incident is especially jarring considering the political climate of their neighbors to the south . The Chronicle Herald reports : The victims of a mass shooting at a Quebec City mosque were fathers, businessmen, a university professor and others who had gathered for evening prayers, a Muslim community leader said Monday as he recalled through tears the horror of the attack that killed six and injured 19 others. “It’s a very, very big tragedy for us,” said Mohamed Labidi, the vice-president of the Centre Culturel Islamique de Quebec, the mosque where the attack happened Sunday night. “We have a sadness we cannot express.” Labidi said the victims were shot in the back. “Security at our mosque was our major,...

Last week, Jay Z  was at the Sundance Film Festival in Utah where he hosted screenings of his SpikeTV series TIME: The Kalief Browder Story . The series chronicles the false arrest, 800-day imprisonment, beatings and other tragic events that eventually led to Browder taking his own life two years after he was finally released. During a panel discussion after the series left audience members speechless, Jay Z took an opportunity to talk about how films like this will spark much-needed conversation about law enforcement and other hot button issues in America right now. “More than ever, the people have to come together,” said Jay Z. “We have to tell these stories, and we have to organize in a way that we never have before, because that’s the only thing that effects change.

http://ift.tt/eA8V8J In just one short week, Donald Trump has alienated more people than he’s trying to prevent from entering the United States. As protests continue to grow with every passing discriminatory executive order signed by Cheeto Jesus , celebrities and company CEO’s have slammed Trump for his obvious xenophobia. Nike CEO Mark Parker is the latest to criticize the methods of the most loathed leader of the free world. In a statement issued to his employees, the Nike chairman reminded everyone that “Nike stands together against bigotry and any form of discrimination,” and “Now, more than ever, let’s stand up for our values and remain open and inclusive as a brand and as a company.” The declaration also referenced Somali born four-time Olympic gold medalist, Sir Mo Farah, who fears that he may not be able to return from his training camp in Ethiopia to see his wife and children who live in Portland. “What Mo will always have – what the entire Nike family can always coun...

http://ift.tt/2kGKvfX DJ Khaled has clearly been securing enormous bags. The producer and [Jergens Lotion, TurboTax, Soy Milk] spokesman just copped a $9.9M mansions in Beverly Hills.  Reports Realtor.com : DJ Khaled picked up a seven-bedroom, 11-bath mansion in Beverly Hills, CA, paying $9.9 million for his own slice of the 90210. He’s the third musician to own the house: It once belonged to country singer Clint Black, who sold it to British singer Robbie Williams in 2002 for a little over $5 million. Williams undertook an extensive renovation and nearly doubled his money in the sale. Built in 1992, this 10,681-square-foot, French Normandy–inspired mansion is located in the gated Mulholland Estates community, which is popular with celebrities. The neighborhood made headlines in 2009 when thieves made off with $2 million in jewelry from Paris Hilton’s mansion. Check out photos of DJ Khaled’s new crib below and on the flip.

http://ift.tt/2jn6T0I Azealia Banks and Rihanna are known for being the queens of slander, but now the two have been pitted against each other with some rather unexpected results. After the Harlem rapper took a stray shot at the Barbadian superstar over President Donald Trump , the clap back was strong and to the point, while Banks failed to keep up despite having more to say. Over the weekend, President Trump’s goofy “Muslim ban” had everyone speaking up and out against the divisive policy including Rihanna who took to Twitter to voice her displeasure. While she was off minding her own business, Banks saw fit to offer an opinion on the matter that nobody asked for. In a series of now-deleted Instagram posts, Banks took a few more shots at Rihanna and to anyone who criticized Donald Trump. This inspired Rihanna to succinctly respond to Banks’ insults using memes and photos. Banks tried to save face by typing a lot in response but instead decided to stop flailing away and rel...

http://ift.tt/eA8V8J Moonlight actor Mahershala Ali won the Screen Actors Guild award for Best Supporting Actor. His acceptance speech deserved an award as well. Ali took most of his two minutes on stage to ask America to “do a better job” at accepting people who are different from them. His role as “Juan” was an unlikely saint who sold drugs, but helped a young boy who had questions about his sexuality learn to at least try and accept himself. He drew parallels between the young boy, “Little” as he is referred to in the movie, and people who get persecuted for sticking out in their own communities. He says: “What I learned from working on Moonlight is we see what happens when we persecute people. They fold into themselves. And what I was so grateful about in having the opportunity to play Juan was playing a gentleman who saw a young man folding into himself as a result of the persecution of his community and taking that opportunity to uplift him and tell him he mattered, tha...

http://ift.tt/eA8V8J Gospel singer and the newest member of “All Lives Matter” Tina Campbell has wrote a Facebook letter supporting Donald Trump and his attempt to ban Muslims from entering the United States. While we are not exactly sure who asked, Campbell felt it was on her spirit to let the world know that even though she is a strong, Christian, God-fearing woman, she also needs to feel that she is “protected” as an American. Which is why she penned an open letter on Facebook in support of Donald Trump . In the letter she writes:   “I believe that no creed, nor color, nor class, nor status of people are better than the other, but we are all valuable; we are all necessary. I believe that all people and all lives matter, including that of Mr. Donald Trump and his family. I believe that the leaders of this nation should protect the opportunity for life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness for every single one of its citizens. And, I choose to believe that Mr. Donald Trump...

http://instagr.am/p/BP1oUQRDj_P/media/?size=l Snoop Dogg  got hired to DJ at the NHL’s All-Star Skills Competition. He obviously did not bring his radio-ready stash. Snoop Dogg was center ice at the Staples Center in Los Angeles for the opening of the NHL All-Star Skills Competition. The only connection we can see between Snoop Dogg and hockey is him rocking hockey jerseys in his old videos. But someone at the NHL figured it would be a cool idea to have him be a part of the festivities since they were in L.A. Plus, Snoop is a crossover, “family friendly” figure now right? Well, the NHL got exactly what they paid for when the man who made the word “biotch” famous let an uncensored song rip for the sold out crowd and the millions of viewers watching at home on NBC. Snoop chose to open the ceremonies with Dr. Dre’s “The Next Episode.” A song known for its instantly recognizable opening that samples David McCallum’s “The Edge.”  But it is also known for Snoop and Kurupt’s ...

The “woke” comedian spoke briefly at a rally in front of Congressman, and Trump supporter, Mike Turner’s office and the federal court building in Dayton. Chappelle practices Islam and expressed his support of all those who stand to be affected by Trump’s executive order to keep people coming from certain Islamic territories from entering the U.S. He also said he’s tired of Trump ruining his Sundays. “We are all here because what you [Trump] are doing does not seem right,” Chappelle can be heard saying in video from the event. “As a matter of fact, it sucks.

The sports reporter took to Instagram to beef about protesters making her miss a flight at LAX, and she is getting properly dragged for her headassness (new word?). Peep her message: So THIS is why thousands of us dragged luggage nearly 2 miles to get to LAX, but still missed our flights. Fortunately, a 7 hour wait for the next flight to Houston won’t affect me that much, but my heart sank for the elderly and parents with small children who did their best to walk all that way but had no chance of making their flights.

Yes, immigrants were affected by this as well. Brilliant. 🇺🇸 How dare these protesters make a fuss out of Cheeto Jesus signing an executive order that bans M...

http://ift.tt/2juZCr2 Wale has always wore his emotions on his sleeves, and his social media accounts. The Washington, D.C. rapper recently shared his current feelings about the music industry on Instagram. In a since-deleted post, Wale voiced a few frustrations with the industry that has made him a both a star and lighting rod for criticism. In the post he says: “Tired. I’m tired. I tried his music industry will take your soul then make you want [to] leave. N***as don’t respect humble, n***as don’t respect intelligence. They’ll ask for ‘this or that’ and you deliver it they’ll say it never happened. Let me air out some people, it’ll make headlines. Let me uplift some people it’ll get buried quicker than u can say ‘leanmollyxan.’ They’ll kill you and then worship you when you gone.” While Wale is most definitely entitled to feel how he wants to feel, his comments fall in line with exactly what J.

http://ift.tt/2jHgH4i Kirk Franklin does not play. A troll tried to come for Franklin with a threat to his daughter, and the Gospel musician threatened him with a gun fade, in the name of Jesus.  It started when Franklin tweeted about Cheeto Jesus Muslim ban yesterday (Jan. 28.) I am a Christian who would rather sit at the table with a Muslim brother than ban him from a home that wasn't originally mine… — Kirk Franklin (@kirkfranklin) January 28, 2017 “I am a Christian who would rather sit at the table with a Muslim brother than ban him from a home that wasn’t originally mine…,” tweeted Franklin. A troll came out of the muck, and threatened Franklin’s progeny. “I trust u’ll be leaving ur doors unlocked tonight. Oh & ur brothers want to know if u have a daughter,” wrote @historycarper .
