News that loosely related to Traditional or Old School Black culture. Other things will, can and are welcomed to be posted of course but news, articles and discussion related to Black American traditions, and culture will be the norm.

While my profile states I've been on Reddit for a couple years, I've only gotten the gist of it recently. Thus bare with me while I try to build this sub Reddit.

Here are some friends and sources of enlightenment:

Music.

The popular perception is actually based on promotional copy. They are just interested in selling a product. They don’t care whether the work is good, bad, or indifferent; whether it is banal or truly exciting. What they want to do is sell it. They are not interested in accepting the challenge of music; they just want to make something that you can say is music and that will sell. If it sells they give them a prize, a golden disc or a platinum disc. But that’s a hysterical approach. If you are not sufficiently historical in your perception of actuality then your daily life is going to be hysterical because you respond to everything that comes up as if it’s new and a lot of that stuff, all you had to do was check up on it and you would have known that it was going to happen. — Albert Murray:
