Source: Jeff Kravitz / Getty GZA is arguably hip hop’s smartest rapper. With complex rhymes, a vocabulary straight out of the dictionary, and broad scientific knowledge , the Wu-Tang Clan co-founder is always schooling folks no matter where he is. So it comes as no surprise that the New York spitter was caught on camera performing a music set, but also handling a chess game…AT THE SAME DAMN TIME. In one video, he can be seen rapping “Wu-Tang Clan Ain’t Nuthing ta F*ck Wit” while making a move on the chess board. In another clip, it seems he’s playing during a break. Bro @TheRealGZA was challenged to PLAY CHESS from the crowd and he did it while rapping his set pic.twitter.com/Fw6Ho0kymf — Frak (@FrakTheMC) June 10, 2018 Your fav could never. GZA’s efforts are not surprising considering he’s a well known chess fan. Even the reissue of his classic album Liquid Swords included a full-sized wooden chess set . Now I’m not saying your favorite rapper has to be a genius, but come on…GZA is setting the bar pretty high.

A fter Dove provoked backlash with a 3-minute Facebook video for its body wash that showed a Black woman removing her brown T-shirt to reveal a clean White woman in an ivory T-shirt, some social media users have called for a boycott of the brand. RELATED: Dove Apologizes After Denigrating Black Women In Insensitive Ad The calls for a boycott came even after Dove’s parent company, Unilever, apologized for the ad, saying they “missed the mark in representing women of color thoughtfully. We deeply regret the offense it caused.” But is an apology enough, especially after the brand has been accused of displaying racial insensitivity in the past ? In 2011, an advertisement showed Dove body wash that turned Black women into Latino women and then White women. Since Dove has been accused of racist advertising before, is it time to apply pressure to Unilever?
