Ever since the media began reporting on various statistics that people of color will become the new majority by 2050 in the United States and throughout most of the globe, there have been parallel reports circulating about the plight of the oppressed white guy. Yeah, you read that correctly. White men, who have long lived off of the divine privilege of whiteness, are now pulling out of the ole’ proverbial race card and claiming that their whiteness is somehow prohibiting them from moving ahead in society. You need a second to stop laughing? Sure, I’ll wait. Okay, got that out of your system? Good. Let’s continue .

Is It Finally Kelly Rowland’s Turn To Shine?

Posted on April 18, 2011 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

For some music fans, it may be hard for former Destiny’s Child member Kelly Rowland to get from underneath Beyoncé’s shadow. Despite being without a label for almost a year, Rowland has been recording songs for an as-of-yet-to-be titled album through Universal Motown Records. But don’t be mistaken—it wasn’t as if Rowland took a hiatus from music like Beyoncé has for the past year. Ms. Kelly has chose to grind. But with the growing murmurs that B is coming back bigger, better and blacker than ever this summer, will all of Rowland’s work be in vain? After collaborating to record the theme song for the 2010 FIFA World Cup in South Africa, Rowland toured Europe, Asia, and Australia. She earned critical acclaim from the electro-pop community for her work with David Guetta, and as one of the headlining acts of the Sydney Gay and Lesbian Mardi Gras Party with George Michael.

For Your Info: What Is A Cloud And What Does It Mean For You Music Lovers Out There??

Posted on April 16, 2011 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Recently the tech world has been absolutely buzzing about “cloud” systems and music. Amazon has charged ahead with theirs, claiming that they need no license from the record labels, and Google is reportedly, furtively, working on their own system as well. If so, this could be the latest power move from the tech scene which could make for yet more waves within the already turbulent music industry. But given that Black music has consistently been so coveted (helped by tech advances in ringtones to downloads) just how could this development affect the young artists behind the creativity and who constitute a chunk of our Black GDP?

Why Are Anti-Abortion Billboards Targeting Blacks?

Posted on April 13, 2011 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Britney Monroe says she was “in the hood” of her native Chicago when she looked up and saw it. There, in bold letters, she saw for the first time the billboard that had gotten so much media attention: “The Most Dangerous Place for an African American Child is in the Womb.” “I had mixed feelings,” she said. “The billboards made their point, but they went about it the wrong way. I don’t think it was the most politically correct way. I don’t think it should have been as specific as far as race.” The recent torrent of anti-abortion messages plastered on billboards in major cities nationwide has re-ignited the ongoing debate about abortion. This time, the billboards incorporated the extra element of race which makes unsuspecting passerbyers like Monroe ask, why target the African American community? Continued at The Atlanta Post
