On July 10, 1943, 83 years ago today, Arthur Ashe was born.

The first Black man to win men's singles at #Wimbledon, the U.S. Open, and the Australian Open, Arthur Ashe was a courageous trailblazer who played our game with tenacity, athleticism, and grace.

His legacy lives on.

Fans tell artists to "go independent" without knowing what that actually takes. Ed Sheeran left Warner in May. Two months later he's reportedly signing with Interscope, another major. At the superstar level, you can't replace the infrastructure and funding a label provides.

Jermaine Dupri has filed an $18 million lawsuit against Sony Music Entertainment, alleging the company failed to properly pay royalties for releases from Mariah Carey, Usher, Xscape, Kris Kross and more.

The suit, filed on Monday, accuses Sony of having “not been lawful” in its dealings with Dupri dating back to May 1992. He allegedly began to suspect that he had not been paid in full for royalties in 2023, and that misconduct had been discovered in the time since.

Today, America turns 250. In 1852, Frederick Douglass stood before a crowd celebrating independence and asked "What, to the Slave, is the Fourth of July?" He celebrated the ideals of the Declaration while exposing the contradiction of a nation built on freedom and slavery at the same time.

My father spent his life trying to push America closer to its own promises. Douglass' question is an invitation to be honest about where we have been and intentional about where we are going. This Fourth of July, let us remember not just what America has been, but what it must become. #America250 #IndependenceDay
