An old classmate recently leaked a home video from 1990 of The Throne’s Kanye West reciting an MLK-dedicated verse from a poem entitled, “His Name Means Love.”

Remember Jay’s infamous “My favorite hue is Jay-Z BLUE” line or his freestyle rendition of “Grammy Family” where he ends it with, “baby BLUE Maybach like I own Gerber.” He even goes on to say, “I got daughter(s) on the way/If the prophecy’s correct/then the child should have to pay/For the sins of her father/So I barter my tomorrows/Against my yesterdays/In hopes that she’ll be OK”.

With that being said, he has delivered enough poetic references hinting the arrival of the heir to the throne.

In the midst of possibly the happiest moment of Jay and Be’s life, Father Nice Watch take a moment to release “Glory” and pens a letter to his greatest creation, in which he uses the word ‘Bitch’ so regretfully. How appropriate is this apology and promise to his daughter to protect her and rid her of any disrespectful energy. Fellas, take note!

“Before I got in the game, made a change, and got rich,
I didn’t think hard about using the word Bitch.
I rapped, I flipped it, I sold it, I lived it
now with my daughter in this world
I curse those that give it.
I never realized while on the fast track
that I’d give riddance to the word bitch, to leave her innocence in tact.
No man will degrade her, or call her out her name
the women won’t despise her and call her the same.
I know it’s gonna miss me
cuz we been together like Nike Airs and crisp tees
when we all used to hang out front
singing 99 problems but a lady ain’t one.
Excuse me miss, can I be your mister
cuz I can tell the difference from a little girl and a sister,
She never grew up, her father left her alone
I promise not to talk like we used to
until Kingdom Come.
I’m so focused on your future,
The degradation has passed
I wish you wealth, health, and insight
forever young you may pass.
Blue Ivy Carter, my angel.”

He’s a poet, to some, a regular day modern day Shakespeare!

My home-girl Jasmine hit us with another controversial piece. This time she’s going at Gucci Mane’s label-mate, Waka Flocka. She shows him no mercy and should she? Here’s another dose, but it can be a hard pill to swallow!

Check out this powerful poem by Bobby Drake. B.Drake is a League Alum and Milwaukee based spoken word artist and producer. Police brutality is real, and it’s a relic of 20th century thinking. We can’t let the bad apples continue to spoil the bunch. Go here to learn your rights!!
