Next up, letter F: “Fallin’” #JayZ30 #JayZ

Jermaine Dupri: “I went to the studio, and he [Jay-Z] played me a part of the movie [‘American Gangster’] that he felt like he didn’t have a song for yet ... the inevitable part of every drug dealer’s life is ... either they die, or they go to jail ... the fall happens ... Jay had all these songs, but he didn’t have that aspect of that movie. So, I start visualizing a song called ‘Fallin’ ... if I give Jay-Z a concept, it’s gon’ go ‘cause that’s what happened with ‘Money Ain't a Thang’ ... as soon as I sent it, that nigga was in the booth.”

Benny the Butcher says that Jay-Z sometimes calls him by the name of his classic record off Tana Talk 3:

“Sometimes Hov will text me like, ‘What’s up ‘97 Hov’?’ I’m like damn, I didn’t expect for big homie to hear that record” 😂

John Boyd Jr. says he was blocked from a White House meeting for farmers and told the administration is moving away from DEI and small farmers and toward large, white agribusiness.

Let that sink in.

Small farmers pushed out.
Black farmers shut out.
Power consolidated.

This is Donald Trump’s America: reward the connected, erase everyone else.

Eddie Murphy is a true legend. He is the only man who can make Richard the Goat Pryor laugh through his pain. This was hard to watch and funny at the same time. Two of the best to ever do it.
