My thoughts on Christopher Wallace (AKA Notorious B.I.G.):
Although dead, Christopher Wallace is still the King of Rap. even from beyond the grave, he still couldn’t have been uncrowned. If Biggie was still alive, there would be so may corny-ass rappers who would never be in the game. The rap game needs him back so badly. #I’m just reflectin’!!! Continue reading

My thoughts on Women & Women’s History Month (Part II):
Women are the best!!! Women are so important to both you and me. It’s so obvious; yet, we still can’t come to see. They are our mothers, sisters, wives, daughters, friends & comforters. Yet, we show no thanks in return for selflessly giving all of themselves. We depend upon women in so many ways, we Continue reading

My thoughts on the Pursuit of Materialism:
[wpvideo wPaAKct0] Absolute Materialism: From fancy cars, to racks on racks. From Heroin, to Cocaine & Crack. We have such a dangerous, pathological thirst for things. There’s just a destructive path and it never ceases. There seems to be no cure for this deadly disease. It’s like we’re paralyzed, by the venom of serpent stings. Continue reading

My Cocoon-Diaries Part II:
Author’s note: My Cocoon-Diaries are poems and/or general writings which contain self-reflections for me, how I’ve been living & how I should’ve not been living, over a significant portion of time that I’ve taken to limit my social-spheres & social-interactions. It’s been a time for me to dig deep within myself, to wrap myself up Continue reading

Some Brief Islamic-History (Important Muslims often overlooked via Anti-Blackness):
Author’s note: Here’s my take on some individual Muslims of African-Descent whom are near & dear to my heart, as people whom have made powerful & relevant contributions to Islam & the world.

My thoughts on Muhammad, the Beloved of Allah (Peace be upon him):
Author’s note: I purposely chose to release this poem after the Islamic month of Rabi`ul-Awwal, which has just past, because of people celebrating the birthday of Prophet Muhammad (Peace be upon him), during that particular month, which is a religiously innovated practice, which I personally did not want to partake in anyway. However, since this Continue reading

Some Brief Islamic-History (Malcolm Little AKA: Malcolm X):
Author’s note: Every year, in both February & May, people have celebrations, concerts, grave-visits, lectures, and the whole nine-yards, in homage to this one man, Malcolm Little (May Allah mercify him). It’s still very obvious that the life of Malcolm Little (May Allah mercify him) still grabs our attention, and intrigue, even after his death. Continue reading
