Book Description
As of late, mindless events have been taking place around us. Many lives have been lost this year. It doesn't look like that's slowing down. Someone is passing away right now. For real though, it had me thinking, those people who died right... how many of them were nobodies? How many of those people you knew nothing about? It wasn't until something tragic happened to them you started to become familiar with them. What does it take to make yourself something? Do you have to die first?

Who Shot Me? Inside and Detailed Information About the Christopher Wallace Murder Investigation Conspiracy Theories

Publisher: TJ Clemons
ISBN:

Languages : en
Pages : 114
Book Description
Neither one of them had their fathers in their lives to teach them how to be men and settle their differences and opinions like gentlemen. BIG did have the chance and opportunity to experience fatherhood for himself and if he had some more time, I believe that him and Tupac would have eventually squashed their media-driven and musical industry differences. They are both hip-hop legends and they will both continue to inspire and influence the masses as well as the rap music industry, culture, future, and community. 2pac and Biggie Smalls both believed that they would suffer untimely deaths and demises at a very young age. And both of their predictions, projections, and prophetic intuitions ended up becoming a very tragic reality.

The Devil and Dave Chappelle
Author: William Jelani Cobb
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Literary Collections
Languages : en
Pages : 344
Book Description
There are no simple answers, only oversimplified ones. But the cure to all social ills lies in uncovering the truth. In this unflinching, timely, wide-ranging collection of essays, professor William Cobb lays bare the black experience of the past decade using cinema, music, literature, politics, and pop culture. "On the Stroll: The Pimping of Three 6 Mafia" is a fascinating take on the first hip-hop group ever to win an Oscar. Cobb lambastes the group for flaunting onstage every stereotype that the movie they performed in (Hustle and Flow) so carefully and brilliantly avoided. In "The Trouble with Harry," Cobb argues that Harry Belafonte's absence from the funeral of forty-year friend Coretta Scott King is a tragedy, and Martin Luther King's children should be ashamed of themselves. In "The Devil and Dave Chappelle" Cobb discusses Chappelle's decision to walk away from a $50 million contract as not just a comedic choice but also as a social and political choice. Chappelle's humor was largely an "inside joke" shared among blacks. When his audience grew, he felt that a line had been crossed. This new audience was laughing at him. Not with him. Chappelle realized that one wrong laugh could put him on the wrong side of the line between genius and Uncle Tom. From the "too smart" irony of Dave Chappelle to the cultural relocation of Bessemer, Alabama; from the gift and curse of the first generation of black prosperity to the failure of history to act as a guide for the present; Cobb reflects on the post--civil rights era with fondness and hope, concern and caution.
