Bay Bay: the streets are cold without Desus & Mero. The culture is malnourished. The commentary is limp. My timeline ain’t hitting the same. The Bodega Boys didn’t just give us laughs—they gave us catharsis, context, and clapbacks. And ever since the Bronx’s favorite sons split, we’ve been left in the group chat with no
Let’s get one thing straight: Lil Nas X is a star, and I don’t care what the haters (or fake woke internet scholars) have to say about it. His latest track Hotbox? A certified bop. It’s giving windows down, gloss poppin’, Bluetooth speaker by the pool energy. Song of the summer worthy, no debate. But
While I am so here for the premiere of the brand new Noah’s Arc movie dropping June 20th on Paramount+, go ahead and cancel those plans, because the girls are streaming.

Target, once the darling of the diversity playbook, decided to roll back its Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) initiatives. The result? A significant hit to its bottom line and a tarnished reputation. The DEI Rollback and Its FalloutIn early 2025, Target scaled back its DEI programs, a move that didn’t go unnoticed. This decision led to
Let’s get one thing straight: I love New York, but this city has been playing in our faces for far too long. Between the rent hikes, $10 chopped cheeses, and gentrifiers calling the cops over double-parked cars during church service—something’s gotta give. And with the 2025 NYC primary approaching, I’m using my vote to advocate
If you grew up watching Nickelodeon in the early 2000s, As Told By Ginger likely lives rent-free in your millennial memory. Between Ginger’s emotional monologues, Carl’s grotesque middle-school antics, and Macie’s nervous energy, the show stood out for its raw, diary-like realism. But let’s address the overlooked truth buried beneath the surface:Miranda Killgallen was not
Let’s talk about tariffs. Yep, we’re getting political today, because your groceries are sky-high, your electronics cost more than your rent, and you’re out here wondering why a $12 cucumber salad just cost $27. The answer?

Black designers and Black-owned fashion brands have always been the blueprint. From luxury bags to curve-loving dresses, the drip has never depended on outside validation.
