Regina King’s Open Letter to the Emmys about Racism

Since the Emmy ceremony, I have been going back and forth about whether or not I should compose this letter. I try hard in my daily life not to engage in uncomfortable situations regarding race. But sometimes it's very difficult to find other reasons that better explain why certain events play out the way they do. It is impossible for me to ignore the published statistics regarding the number of people of color mentioned, celebrated or honored in the history of the televised Emmys. Up to and including this year, there have been only 53 non-white actorsnominated for Emmys out of nearly 1,000 possible nominations in the top four acting categories for drama and comedy.

Permanent Link to Introducing Mr. Pigface, Weapon Waist

Amidst all of the beef and the bullsh*t that has been plaguing Hip Hop as of late, there has been no time to remember when words meant anything and the impact of a lyricist lacing down a track.

Beyond the pending beef with Benzino, Crooked I looks to reestablish the lyrical aspect of the genre with the visual to the track “Mr. Pigface” off of his EP Mr. Pigface Weapon Waist, which was released back in November.

Giving an introduction to his alter ego, Pigface, Crooked looks to strip away all of the filter and chase and deliver straight shots for the fans to quench their thirst as he continues to wave the flag for Slaughterhouse.

"2009 Obituary"

Looking into an endless future and possibilities that are beyond the sky's reach, it is necessary to take a glance back at what was and what has been lost in the journey.

For Papoose, the glimpse back has provided a chance to see all of those that have fallen in 2009 can pay his last respects to them on the track “09 Obituary”.

Opening up with Michael Jackson, the rapper touches everybody reaching out to great losses such as Roc Raida, DJ AM, Steve McNair More

Every great star is meant to take a tailspin and fall to their lowest in order to deal with the adversity against him/her and rise back to reclaim their position.

Kobe Bryant went through it with his infidelity and Tiger Woods is currently going through it due to mistresses that seemed to open their mouths more times than it was asked for.

Kanye West is on a slow climb back into the public eye and his appearance accompanied with a verse for Jay-Z's “Run This Town” has been an indicator of things to come and show that the rapper is far from losing his step.

Always known to go against the grain instead of following the pack, his innovativeness has More

Even with the emergence of a new year, the same old problems continue to show its ugly face for 2010.

As the YouTube battle between Benzino and Slaughterhouse wages on, primarily with Royce Da 5'9”, Nickel has decided to respond once again.

The soap opera drama, unfortunately, continues.

Crooked I mentioned in his own response that there was no beef with Benzino and that he needed to just calm down and really think about what he was trying to do because Slaughterhouse never has any real issue or see the need to have a problem with the Boston native.

With mutual sentiments, Royce, at this point, is still in a state of confusion as to how the battle went from lyrics to weapons, but has assured his opponent that More
