Happy birthday to Capital Steez, who would have been 33 today.
Steez founded Pro Era with producer Powers Pleasant, coming up with the idea on the way home from one of his early Brooklyn shows. Joey Bada$$ and CJ Fly rounded out the group's founding core shortly after. His freestyles were always dense with wordplay, even when he was clearly just riffing off the top of his head.
RIP Capital Steez 🕊️
PASTOR LORAN LIVINGSTON (@CentralChurchNC): “There has never been a Christian nation, and never will be. You don’t live in one now. A Christian nation wouldn’t have killed and displaced 20 million Native Americans, or thought owning slaves was pleasing to God.”
CIA needs to be completely disbanded already they might be the organization responsible for the most American deaths besides the police force and healthcare system
BREAKING: The CIA has been accused of using Directed Energy Weapons (DEWs) to target and psychologically abuse whistleblowers, according to former CIA officer Kevin Shipp.
The reason why racist white people preferred college ball before NIL is because those kids weren’t paid, and they could cling to their whiteness to feel superior. They can’t do that in the NBA where black guys are making hundreds of millions
Hierarchies always need to be upheld
"I had two NBA sources... two people in the league, one an executive, one a scout, say that Jaylen Brown has - it's a disease. He suddenly thinks he's the smartest guy in every room he's in."

Bigger than basketball. I’ve seen JB put bread in my own peoples pockets. Collaborated with 7uice to give black kids a chance at reveling in their knowledge. Handed out his own gear personally at Franklin Park. This a fucking travesty fr.
All outspoken , eloquent black athletes are villainized until years later . White media cannot stand black athletes that are confident and know their worth.
I truly believe this Jaylen Brown stuff is a sign of groupthink by GMs. Hope JB has a phenomenal year next year and makes everyone that had a chance to trade for him for not much look silly.
And if you are a brother media person and you see what is happening with Jaylen Brown regardless of your personal feelings about him if you contribute to these insane and terrible racial tropes you are part of the problem.
