QUOTE OF THE DAY: BILLIONAIRE FORMULA ONE BOSS BERNIE ECCLESTONE

“I don’t celebrate. I don’t see the point. I went to my daughter’s wedding last week and walked her down the aisle. But I didn’t go to the celebrations the next day. I went home. I was there to do a job (give her away) and was happy to do that. I didn’t want to hang around. The whole thing was a huge affair, too much really.” The 82-year-old mogul insists that he did not pay for his daughter’s £3.5 million wedding. “I didn’t pay for it. []

DELUSIONAL IDIOT OF THE DAY: KANYE WEST TALKS TO W MAGAZINE INTERVIEW

In a recent interview with W Magazine the delusional Kanye West dropped some “gems”. Check some extracts from the interview below. He plays one intensely dark, primal track that he worked on with the French electro duo Daft Punk: the defiant anthem “I Am a God,” which he debuted live at the Metropolitan Museum of Art’s Costume Institute Gala in New York in May. It turns out this song was inspired by a serious diss—not from another rapper but from a major []

UK SHORT FILM: SITUATIONS – LIGHT SKINNED VS DARK SKINNED

Some food for thought which addresses the long time topic of skin complexion within the black community. Those dumb young black men who enjoy putting down and belittling dark skinned women who share the EXACT same complexion as themselves, and who are also responsible for coining the ridiculous term “lighty” need to watch this.  Yeah you twats know who you are.   [Thanks Lorraine] Your thoughts please…

PIC AND VIDEO OF THE DAY: DRAKE CELEBRATES WITH LEBRON JAMES AFTER MIAMI HEAT CHAMPIONSHIP WIN

This just made me laugh today. Drake looks like an over excited fan and the  footage below is just hilarious to me (I find comedy in almost everything). Lebron and team mate Dwyane Wade obviously think they are rappers on stage and are just lapping up the hero worship from club patrons. And people wonder why these sports stars and some A-list celebrities develop huge heads and as my friend Ms Quiche would say, “walk around like their doo doo can make []

BLACK BRITISH SHORT FILM: ‘SORRY WE DON’T HELP DARKIES’ – STARRING RICHIE CAMPBELL

A Jamaican family living in London’s Notting Hill during the tension and violence that led to the 1958 race riots, comes to a brutal realisation that life in post war Britain is far from the ‘Mother Country’ that would welcome them with open arms as they had been told… .. A situation that MANY West Indian migrants had to face while living in the ‘Mother Country’ back then, that often gets swept under the carpet and played down when discussed today. Well []
