Live from the unapollagetic studios in Chicago, Illinois, Actresses Quin Walters and Rashida 'The Real Sheedz' came through with incredible energy and Black Love! It was a pleasure to see these Queens love on one another even though they are in the same industry. There was no competition from these rising Hollywood Stars! As we discussed some current entertainment news the conversation was always positive and turned to give facts and what needs to happen in our community. Quin and Rashida are working hard in their fields and also using their platforms to end racial injustices and inequalities around the world. No strangers to tv, movies, and stages it was an honor to be in the presence of these Queens. Their resumes are impressive with almost two decades in the acting and comedy industries. Thank you! Keep hustling nothing but up from here! Keep fighting the good fight! 

The Album: OutKast Southernplayalisticadillacmuzik (1994)

Antwan (Big Boi) Patton and Andre (Dre) Benjamin began collaborating in 1992 and paired their genuis presenting it for the world to see on their debut project SouthernPlayalisticadillacmuzik which released on LaFace records in the spring of 1994.

LA’s own DJ Rashida sat with us to talk southern charm, the musicality of this album, black consciousness through the lyrics, what made the interludes so compelling and why this album stands the real test of time.

American Truth Project discusses new Congresswoman Rashida Tlaib and her hateful connections.

The American Truth Project, a non-profit (501c3) organization was launched because America’s national security is being threatened as never before. Our republic and the rights guaranteed by our constitution are facing dangerous new enemies, both foreign and domestic.

Our solution is to educate the public on the truths regarding critical security risks facing America, as well as our most strategic ally, Israel. There are few quality sources dedicated to this purpose.

Our team will investigate and reveal the factual nature and magnitude of these threats, and the best ways to address them. We, the people, have the right to know the truth. ATP is here to tell it.
