This week’s group chat topic of the week is inspired by a recent post from Kev On Stage who asked the question, “What do Black people take seriously?” We explore the impact of content creation on our humanity, asking whether the constant pressure to produce is causing us to lose touch with ourselves and our communities. In our “Big Up” segment, we celebrate the heartwarming story of Kansas City Chief’s Defensive Tackle, Chris Jones, who stepped up to help a 68-year-old woman facing a harsh sentence for a crime involving stolen chicken wings.
However, not all stories bring us joy—our “Let Down” segment covers the unfortunate drama within the rap community. The Fugees’ recent turmoil has taken a bitter turn as Pras releases a diss track aimed at Lauryn Hill following the cancellation of their tour. We dissect this “Rap Family Feud” and its implications for the music industry. Tune in for a mix of serious reflection, community support, and the latest in music world controversies.
