icon.

Sometimes you have to invariably be your own bad-ass self without apology. And Spike Lee fits that bill with his courageous Napoleonic stance. GT created the “Icon” category; not for Tuesday filler purposes but to featured folks who are committed to the range of who we are. The range. Cause it’s so easy to make a [...]

committed.

GT recognizes that it’s very easy to criticize. Too easy in fact.  In today’s mosquito gnat attention span culture snap judgements have become the go to replacement for the all too important skill of critical thinking.
With that being said; contemporary black film is in a sad state of affairs yall. Not only have they been exclusively reduced to the [...]

Happy Monday and E-hugs to my readers.

For clarity purposes; GT doesn’t offer advice.
*Snickers*
And I generally hate the word because it can be such a trick bag loaded gun where I have either wanted to blow out a friend’s brains or my own. Call me a Debbie Downer but here are my top 5 reasons why I don’t give advice:

icon.

He’s different.
So different that if he didn’t have a baby by Erykah he would have been written off as that suspect ass rapper with the pank sweater.  But GT has always wanted to do a post on Dre. Not only because he’s superfine and sexy (to moi) but because he’s been able to remain authentic [...]
