Hey @blknoiz06, I’m know this is a long shot, but it would be nice to work with you on any project you're currently working on. I'm a writer/marketing strategist with 5+ years of experience working with clients like CT and Neil Patel in the past. Thanks 🙏
Just finished watching the Brymo podcast on YouTube, and in response to his new single “Ìyá Àwèlé,” I think sexual relationships between young artists and older (married) women might actually be more common in the music/entertainment industry than we think.

The wait is over.
We have 2 golds: Chimdiebube Onwubiko and Don Anele Munachimso.
We are the best in the world!
Egejurum Onyedikachi’s name was omitted. He should have a gold.
AI progress isn't bottlenecked by software.
It's bottlenecked by a handful of companies nobody's heard of, sitting in exactly the countries where geopolitics is most fragile right now.

“There was a time we had 90 million turnover and we had to pay back 22 million per year for the stadium, I couldn’t sleep because we had to qualify for the champions league to pay back the money. We had to sell our best players. Other clubs came in with lots of money but we were on the same level from 2007 to 2016”
Arsene Wenger
In 2017, I traveled to China to source automated agricultural equipment for a commercial farming project. My focus was on battery cages, feed milling systems, and silos.
After a week of visiting different Manufacturers and Factories I couldn’t find a Battery Cage System that wasn’t Power dependent- They entire world was using Fully Automated Battery Cage System.
One young CEO became genuinely frustrated with me when I told him-His Automated Battery Cages (with sensors and temperature regulators) wouldn’t work for me because I didn’t have Electricity.
When I explained that reliable electricity was not available in Nigeria, he thought I was exaggerating. To him, uninterrupted power was such a basic requirement for business that the absence of it seemed impossible.
He asked, “How do Survive”? So I showed him on Baidu and he genuinely felt sorry for me.
Even my translator, Cherry, struggled to understand what I meant. We eventually had to research it online before she accepted that a country of over 200 million people could have such a fundamental infrastructure gap.
After further investigation, she helped us locate a manufacturer in Henan Province that produced semi-automated systems specifically for African markets—equipment designed to operate despite unreliable power supply.
Nine years later, the situation remains largely unchanged.
I still do not have Electricity in any farm I own or have helped develop.
The idea that Arsenal became a cultural phenomenon because it signed Black players is too simplistic.
Like much of London, Arsenal positioned itself as a club that extended belonging towards the margins. Not racial margins alone, but the margins of football's imagination.
Kanu arrived after heart surgery that could have ended his career. Bergkamp arrived carrying the weight of a disappointing spell at Inter. Henry arrived as a talented but unsettled player still searching for his place. Kolo Touré was potential before proof. Arteta arrived as a midfielder many thought was entering decline, only to be entrusted with the captaincy. Wenger himself was a foreign manager challenging the assumptions of English football.
The pattern was not diversity for its own sake. It was recognition before validation.
Arsenal repeatedly seemed willing to see people not simply as they were, but as they could become. It trusted before consensus arrived. It built a reputation for offering a second chance, a fresh start, or a path to fulfilment where others saw limitation, uncertainty, or decline.
That is why former players, injured players, and out-of-contract players so often found their way back to Arsenal. The club developed a reputation for treating people as more than their immediate utility.
Representation matters. But recognition creates loyalty.
People did not just see players who looked like them. They saw an institution that appeared willing to enlarge its definition of who belonged.
