1.
Pleasantly
pleased, laughing your off ass off or disappointed with, “Real Husbands of
Hollywood?”
2. By
a show of hands, who has Robin Thicke’s, “All Tied Up” or Kelly Rowland’s “Motivation”
cued for Valentine’s Day?
3. Who
has the never-fail Luther tracks ready to seal the deal after playing Robin or Kelly?
4. How
many of us have already started warming up the Luther tracks because of the
cold weather?
5. By
a show of hands how many of us, “know that we know, that we know, that we know,”
that Al Green declining an invitation to sing, “Let’s Stay Together,” at the
Inaugural Ball was not due to a, “scheduling conflict” but because Al is on that Old School
self-righteous bullshit about gay marriage?
6. How
many of us are pretty sure that Green will not receive another invite to the
White House from President Barack Obama?
7. By
a show of hands, who was a bit confused when Myrlie Evers-Williams started the
invocation because she did not say, “Bow your heads,” or, “Heavenly Father, we humbly
come before you now…”?
8. How
many of us were nonetheless moved by the prayer?
(bonus)
How many of us who were physically in attendance at the ceremonies—with
just
over a million
other people, bowed our heads, but kept one eye open, just in
case?
9. Baffled
as to how the late Teena Marie is releasing an album, but we’ve been waiting a “minute”
for Anita Baker to drop her latest project?
10. By a show of hands, who is
digging the diversified funkiness of the, “DJango”
soundtrack?
11. How many of us think somebody—and
not Samuel Jackson, either, needs to snatch Quentin Tarantino up by the collar,
thump him in the throat and inform him that he although he has permission to
use it in his scripts, he cannot say, speak, mutter, hum or even sign language
the N word—ever?
12. By a show of hands, how many of
us think it was über cool that on deck at the
Inauguration, sitting damn near
front row, shaking hands with politicians and receiving much applause was a kid
from the projects named Shawn Carter?
13. Surprised, disappointed,
disgusted or just don’t give a damn that Lupe Fiasco was booed and yanked off
the stage at an Unofficial Inaugural Ball for talking shit about POTUS?
14. Wondering where Lupe’s fire and
passion against the Commander In Chief was when President Bush was in office?
15. Happy as hell, disappointed or
just don’t give a damn that Shawty Lo’s reality show, “All My Babies Mamas,”
was cancelled before it even aired?
16. By a show of hands, how many of
think Shawty Lo will use the show’s cancellation as an excuse when dragged
before a judge for lack of child support payments?
17. How many of us never heard of
Shawty Lo and for a second thought he might be one of your friends, co-workers
or relatives who has the same trifling moves?
18. Surprised and happy that our
friendly weatherman, and all around nice guy, Al Roker got a handshake from Vice-President
Biden, then threw his mic on the ground and walked the hell off?
19. How many of us are glad rapper
Eve has decided to step up to work with our youth by partnering with Big
Brothers & Big Sisters?
20. How many of know it to be true
beyond of a shadow of a doubt, but are afraid to say the following phrase, “The
internet killed radio?”
