VIOLA DAVIS & OCTAVIA SPENCER’S DEBATE WITH TAVIS SMILEY (MUST SEE)
The must see discussion included Viola Davis saying the following to Smiley:
“That very mindset that you have and that a lot of African-Americans have is absolutely destroying the black artist. The black artist cannot live in a place—in a revisionist place—a black artist can only tell the truth about humanity and humanity is messy, people are messy.”
Are black artists being limited by the public perceptions of what roles they should or not take?

NEW VIDEO: “Black Gold” by Esperanza Spalding featuring Algebra Blessett:
My baby is back with another KILLIN’ jam!!! What a great way to start off Black History Month!!!! I got the opportunity to be an extra in this video (5:51 to be exact)! I was hoping to be cast as her love interest, but being an extra is ok with me. LOL! It was amazing!!!! I was like a kid in the candy store! Met some really cool people, it felt like family! Esperanza had me falling all over myself!!! We watched her sing this song for about 3-4 hours straight and never got tired of it! LOL! SHE IS AMAZING! I was going to propose, but I left the ring at home…..DANG!
Be sure to be on the look out for Esperanza’s forthcoming album, “Radio Music Society” in stores on March 20th, 2012
