Yeah I stoped listening after 10 minutes. There were Puerto Ricans I. Early hip-hop. The Cold Crush brothers had two DJs Charlie Chase and Tony Tone they were both Puerto Rican. There's an interview on drink champs with Crazy Legs who I believe is either Puerto Rican or Dominican.

Plus I am pretty sure there were Puerto Rican Graffiti artist. There was also a white guy called White Flash but I never heard him.

I Lived in the Northeast Bronx in the 70's. However the South Bronx had Puerto Ricans. There's a bunch of Puerto Rican in the Rock Steady Crew.

Tareeq is to young to have been there. So he is going on what he has been told. Dr Colon would have seen some of it even if he wasn't involved. In the same way my parents heard rap from what I was playing.

The loss of the greenback as world's reserve currency is stated as if this will happen -- and soon.  This is highly unlikely, besides what currency will the USD be replaced will it be replaced with? Any potential alternatives are potentially more problematic.

China has been trying to do this. The most likely replacements would be the British Sterling or the Eurodollar.

@Pioneer1 it is cute now, but it definitely would have been unequivocally corny to someone from Money Maker (Manhattan) or The Boogie (the Bronx) back in the day. 

 

What say you @Delano?  You grew up down the street from Spofford, what do you think those brothers would have thought?

I was only in the South Bronx until 5. No I hadn't seen that commercial. 

For me it is so bad on a couple of levels. The only thing I liked was the swirling chocolate.

I guess if you don't have a

Sexual chemistry or vibe than a substitute is they way to go.

I think there is a certain dynamism when your not by yourself. It's like the difference between McDonald's and fine dining. You know what you get at Mickey Dee's. But you it can't compare to a good meal cooked with feeling.

It could be that some people see there partner as a sex toy. However I if you love or even lust your partner that's better than the mechanical. 

Ghetto Heaven is a really Funky Track. I saw them play live and the female lead singer pulled me onstage and sang Fienin to me @ProfD

I saw them once. You should check out the Family Stand album Connected @ProfD

I've been listening to Professor Black Truth and Tariq Nasheed and Mint Condition.

Definition of a BAND by Mint Condition was one of my traveling tapes that and Abraxas by Santana

Dick Cheney received blood money. He literally shot someone and it wasn't news until later.

Well-deserved and long overdue. She clearly loves books

@Delano what do you think about the numerology of "AI?"

 

"A"=1 "I"=9 1+9 =10 =1 = "The One" or God (assuming I remembered that correctly)

AI is a nickname I would use Artificial intelligence .
 

 1  9 9 91  =  29 / 2              9  5  9 5  5 =  33 / 6  =   62 /  8 / 8
    ARTIFICIAL                        INTELLIGENCE
    1929693913 =  52 / 7              952533975535 =  61 / 7  =  113 / 14 / 5
     92 6 3  3 =  23 / 5               52 33 7 53  =  28 / 1  =   51 /  6 / 6

 

Physical plane      =    5      0 - 4's     * 5 - 5's
    Mental plane        =    2      2 - 1's       0 - 8's
    Emotional plane     =    8      2 - 2's     * 5 - 3's       1 - 6's
    Intuitive plane     =    7      1 - 7's     * 6 - 9's

It is missing 4 and 8. Four is about structure and  is power or control. So missing those numbers it lacks those qualities or it will have an over abundance of those qualities. Although AI may have both of those qualities. In that it is ubiquitous yet there are no limits placed on it.

speaking of propaganda. Some feel man-made climate change is propaganda.

I think you know my position on this issue.

I post information that I think is useful. Which isn't really self centered because I am not trying to create agreement just thinking. Which is more altruistic. I don't see communication as propaganda. I am not a teacher, that doesn't mean someone can't learn from my posts.

@Troy what would you say is my position.

a way I'm OPPOSITE of @Delano who puts out information and could care less whether you accept it or not.

That's because I am focused on my learning. People understand based on their experiences. My goal is to be open an accepting. What is the value in getting converts to my way of thinking?

Happy Birthday Cynique.

Glad your just holding the bucket.

Being gangster is cool being a nerd is not cool. But they make more money overall and have less bullet holes.

Are they selling out or buying in?

I think alm people have a right to live freely and with dignity. However history has shown that not everyone feel that way.

Your wrong, no people's really die.

Where did I say that?

I don't know. Nelson Mandela was peaceful. Winnie was handling out necklaces. And avoided a murder charge.

Black people in America weren't meant to survive. One South American country kicked out all the former slaves , after slavery was abolished.

I would make a distinction between power of people and control over them.

Other Astrologers don't believe I can predict specific events. However he is neither my audience nor my client.

would be similar to me putting those who don't believe in the concept of racial classification in the same category of those who deny the existence of racism period.

No all three of you share a common trait you're misinformed. 

 @Troy generally I am unsuccessful in getting people to see my point of view much less change their mind. So I don't discuss much and now I also talk less.
