    ICE in the Summer...

    The political block is not for the faint of heart. ICE raid sends shockwaves through communities. Over in Congress, they dropped something called, “The One, Big, Beautiful Bill”. Depending on who you ask, it’s either real reform… or a PR stunt wrapped in legalese. And in NYC, Zohran Kwame Mamdani just secured a win in the Democratic primary. Organizer, socialist, unapologetic. Is this the future of the party or just New York doing New York things? Then we swerve hard into the mess... A CEO caught cheating at a Coldplay concert. We repeat: Coldplay. It’s giving emotional damage with a live soundtrack. Meanwhile, the Epstein files are looming, Tyler Perry’s in the headlines and not for his writing, Drake is out here stirring the pot telling the UK it has the best rappers in the world, and Burna Boy apologized for neglecting Afrobeats. So, pour your tea, coffee, or drink, and hit play, and please share with your friends!

    The Girls are Fighting!

    The honeymoon phase is over. Donald Trump and Elon Musk are beefing in public. It’s giving less “policy” and more “petty.” Secrets are spilled, egos are bruised, and the timeline is in shambles. Who’s winning? It depends on who’s tweeting. Over in D.C., Clueless Education Secretary Linda McMahon fumbled hard calling lessons on Black history, D-Day, and the 2020 election “illegal DEI”... And just in time for Pride Month, Pete Hegseth’s move to strip Harvey Milk’s name from a Navy ship has folks asking: coincidence or calculated? Either way, the timing is loud and the message even louder. We break it all down: mess, motives, and microaggressions included. So pour your tea, coffee, or drink, and hit play. And remember: y’all love calling everybody your “friend.” Just because they smile in your face doesn’t mean they’re in your corner.

    Sh*t Happens – Beyoncé, "Sinners", & Hollywood Debates

    Beyoncé kicked off her Cowboy Carter tour in L.A. and lit the stage on fire....but what's with the public's obsession with her kids? And have y’all seen Sinners yet? We give our take on Ryan Coogler's smash blockbuster movie featuring Michael B. Jordan. Does it live up to the hype? We also talk about Terrence Howard's recent claim that Quincy Jones offered him a role to play Marvin Gaye....we’ll just leave that right there. Former President Joe Biden sat down on The View to clear the air about his cognitive ability, his relationship with Kamala Harris, and that debate moment that had folks questioning everything.
