Activist Dick Gregory Asks Tough Questions About Trayvon Martin Case… [VIDEO]

Mar, 27 2012 | Written by ATLien

Social activist Dick Gregory is 80 years old but he’s still sharp enough to catch the things that most people overlook when there’s been an injustice done in the world.

Gregory recently spoke to a crowd gathered in Washington, DC on March 24, 2012, for the “No Justice No Peace” rally for Trayvon Martin, the unarmed Florida teen shot by an over zealous neighborhood watchman.

The message Dick Gregory spoke while rocking a hoodie for the first time in his 80 years, was in depth but simple nonetheless…

“Stop being emotional and start demanding answers!”

Gregory posed tough questions to the crowd about Martin’s case, such as “why wasn’t the footage from the convenience store ever requested?” or ‘Who are all these random witnesses coming forward?’ ‘How the hell was Trayvon Martin murdered less than 70 feed from his home?’ and most importantly, “Why hasn’t Trayvon’s killer – George Zimmerman -? been brought to justice?”

The “A” Pod ~ “Keys to the City” Lil Kim ft. Young Jeezy

Mar, 27 2012 | Written by ATLien

Lil’ Kim is barely recognizable in the cover art for her new single, which was shot by photographer Michael Antonio.

The Queen Bee collaborates with Young Jeezy on “Keys to the City” and previously hinted about the record during an interview on BET’s “106 & Park,” where she described it as “vintage Kim mixed with the new Kim.”

The iconic songstress spits tough bars over a chopped-and-screwed hook, while Jeezy tops it off with his signature TM103 style.

Mar, 26 2012 | Written by ATLien

Sometimes things just don’t work out the way we plan but whooda thought a marriage would end before the proposal?

During the past two episodes of The Real Housewives of Atlanta, we witnessed Sheree Whitfield‘s plan to assist her formerly future son in-law Damon with an elaborate plan to propose to her oldest daughter Tierra.

Whats that Robert Burns quote…? Oh yeah… “the best laid plans of mice & men often go astray.”?

“Sex Ain’t Better Than Love” ~ Trey Songz [OFFICIAL VIDEO]

Mar, 26 2012 | Written by ATLien

I almost forgot how much I loved Trey Songz until I saw the video for “Sex Ain’t Better Than Love.”

The ultra sexy R&B crooner gives us more to love in the video for his new single and he describes the concept as the decision to live (or not to live) a duel lifestyle (ie Sex vs. Love).

The concept is a split lifestyle.

In life you make decisions and you make choices and you never get to see what would happen if you made a different choice. It?s not really where we go into the past. It?s more so at one moment I make a decision to be with one woman and in one moment I make a decision to choose another woman.

In other words, we get to see split screens in the video of Trey choosing relationships based on purely sexual attraction vs. those where his feelings are involved.

We’ve all been there…
