Overall thoughts of this uber-long show:
1. The highlight: When Janet Jackson walked out. Janet’s first appearance as the selected family member to speak sobered up the show.She looked like a family member in mourning. Joe Jackson on the other hand…
2. Why was Joe Jackson there? No, really, why was Joe Jackson there? Your son just [...]

Note: If you’ve read the blog for a minute, you should know of my undying Lupe love.
Anyway, I don’t know if I’m just in a goofy mood today or what, but I’ve been laughing all afternoon at videos I’m finding online. This is Lupe during a recent concert in Chicago last night. He stopped to [...]

Aww lawd, the audio clip below made me laugh sooo hard. Apparently Rush Limbaugh has found a connection between the cheating S.C. governor and President Obama. Give a listen:
Obama’s trying to kill spirit! Sanford was just trying to govern and then Obama came in with all that stimulus talk and just messed him up. He [...]

“Oh Lord!! Not M.J.!” was the first text message I received yesterday evening while I was at work. During the break all of my coworkers and I went to the break room and saw the news on the screen. Michael Jackson died at the age of 50 from a cardiac arrest.
Although he had been experiencing health [...]

CNN did a story yesterday on a Connecticut church that performed an exorcism to cast out the demon spirit of homosexuality in teenage boy. Now, if you’ve read my post on homophobia in the black community, you’ll see how I feel about the belief that casting out the demon spirit of homosexuality will erase the [...]

WLLC will always be a mixed bag of topics affecting the black community in addition to politics, music, and random current events. With an added dash of sarcasm, enjoy the dishes served up by my one little blog in a big world of crazy.
