What Nick Cannon said is exactly how misinformation spreads. Yes, the KKK was tied to Southern Democrats in the 1800s. That part is true. But leaving out what happened next changes the entire meaning. In the 1960s, after Lyndon B. Johnson passed the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and the Voting Rights Act of 1965, the racists who supported segregation did not just disappear… They left the Democratic Party and shifted politically. That is a huge part of the story that keeps getting left out. AND THAT MATTERS. Because when we, especially Black voices with big platforms, repeat half stories, it does not just stay a conversation. It spreads and it can be used against us. We cannot afford to be loud and wrong at the same time, especially right now.

Black people in America need to be registered to vote, all of us. Full Fk’n Stop. In states like Georgia, Maryland, Louisiana, Mississippi, and Alabama, turning to vote can shift outcomes in House, Senate, and gubernatorial races. Look at Georgia. About 3.5 million Black residents live here. Roughly 2.5 million of us are eligible to vote, yet only around 1.4 million of us actually do. That leaves between 900,000 and 1.1 million eligible Black voters not participating. Now compare that to the margins of the last two Ga: governor’s races. In 2018, the race was decided by about 54,000 votes. In 2022, about 191,000 votes. The number of eligible Black voters not participating is between 7 and 10x larger than those margins. This isn’t about theory, it’s about MATH. If we show up consistently, outcomes change. The shift starts with registration, and it is sustained by turnout. Register and VOTE.

If you’re wondering why Ryan Coogler and Sinners have been quietly snubbed all year by Variety, Deadline, Rolling Stone, and The Hollywood Reporter, there is a reason. These outlets, along with Billboard, VIBE, IndieWire, and award institutions like Golden Globes, American Music Awards, Billboard Music Awards, Streamy Awards, and New Year’s Rockin’ Eve, all sit under one corporate umbrella owned by Jay Penske. When one billionaire controls the press, the charts, and the awards, journalism stops being journalism. It becomes narrative management. That is why many of these institutions no longer carry cultural weight. Awards feel hollow. Charts feel manufactured. Coverage feels selective. Not because culture stopped evolving, but because legacy media stopped serving the truth and started serving power. Journalism cannot function without free speech, impartiality, and accountability. Legacy media has abandoned all three. This is why 2026 marks the real turning point. Not because legacy media is old, but because it has been consolidated, politicized, and weaponized. The collapse of credibility always precedes the rise of something new. And that is exactly where we are now. What an exciting time. Great Video via Jarrod Jenkins

HipHop and R&B songwriters and artists, this is your annual reminder to TERMINATE YOUR PUBLISHING AND MASTERS! They don’t want you to know you can get your publishing back after 35 years post 1978 and 56 years pre 1978. And the media isn’t talking about it at all. This will be the largest transfer of wealth to Black people in the history of the music industry!

The GRAMMY Awards are the L.A. awards when it comes to hip hop and R&B, and here is why. There are about 15,000 Recording Academy voting members, and the Academy itself says the Los Angeles Chapter is its oldest and largest chapter. So if one city has the biggest chapter, that city has a built in advantage in genres that are still deeply regional in sound, culture, and community. Hip hop and R&B are not the same everywhere. Atlanta does not sound like Los Angeles. New York does not sound like Miami. Texas does not sound like Chicago. And when the biggest voting footprint sits in one market, it is not hard to see why the same markets keep getting rewarded. Even artists who are not originally from Los Angeles but relocate there gain an unfair advantage in hip hop and R&B. Living in L.A. increases proximity to voters, industry events, listening sessions, and informal influence that shapes taste and perception long before ballots are cast. That proximity matters in a peer voting system, especially when one city holds the largest share of the electorate. So here is the fix. Cap voting by city for hip hop and R&B. Put a maximum number of voters per city, like 2,000 in Los Angeles, 2,000 in New York, 2,000 in Atlanta, 2,000 in Miami, 2,000 in Texas, and so on. Keep the voting peer based, just make it geographically fair. Because if the Academy wants the GRAMMY to mean best in the country, then the process has to reflect the country, not just the biggest chapter in the room. If that does not change, then for hip hop and R&B these awards stop meaning what they claim to mean. The GRAMMYs Harvey Mason jr. the process must change for Rap and R&B.

Jewel Ham created Spotify Wrapped as her internship project for the company in 2019. Not only did they not hire her, they took the idea and ran with it. It is now the biggest cultural moment that Spotify has every year. Another example of Black innovation being stolen by white supremacy. Shout out to jewel for being a Black innovator. She deserves the credit for Spotify Wrapped. Comment FANPOD to watch the latest episode of the Invested Podcast w/ tamishaharris

It took 56 years to regain ownership of my father’s musical compositions and now they’re being violated by Donald J. Trump as soon as they’ve been reacquired. I’m passionate about ownership of intellectual property and content for all people. The infringement will stop. Live on The ReidOut last night.

I think Iceman is the setup for Drake’s next move. The bars about strained label relationships, Billion dollar deal conversations, and ownership don’t feel random. I think these three projects were a play to fulfill his Universal commitment, clear the table, and walk into a new deal with maximum leverage. And honestly, I think a fourth album and a major tour announcement are next. Drake doesn’t sound finished, he sounds free.

Those of you who doubted Drake could sign a billion dollar record deal are focused on the future, when you should be looking at the past. In 2025 Drake amassed 17 billion streams on Spotify alone. And those 17 billion streams are worth between $100 and $130 million just last year. That does not mean all those streams came from the albums under his newer deal at Universal, but what it does mean is that he has a catalog that will generate revenue in perpetuity. So if you think for one second that he could not negotiate a deal worth a billion dollars or more, you do not know music, you do not know streaming, and you do not know math. N****s so let em hate and watch the money pile up.

If I repeatedly used any of Donald J. Trump’s IP without permission, he would sue the shit out of me. 🤣 For all the copyright experts out there here’s how it works. And to the writers who don’t want Trump using their songs here’s how you stop him. 😐James L Walker, Jr. Broadcast Music Inc. ASCAP
