With over 70+M global streams to date (25+M U.S.), and a newly announced slot on Lollapalooza’s 2021 bill, NJOMZA shows no signs of slowing down through this LIMBO era.

With the CDC loosening the safety protocols surrounding the novel pandemic, it seems like society is on its way back to normalcy. Though, people still need time adjusting to the revised safety protocols. Nowadays, businesses have their own set of rules and requirements for how to keep their workers safe.
Like any business, the NBA released their own safety protocols to keep players safe. Though, Lakers player LeBron James recently landed himself in some hot water with the NBA after attending a public event. Sources note that the player violated the NBA’s safety protocols and faced suspension. However, the NBA decided not the suspend the star player in the end.
Did LeBron Violate The NBA Safety Protocols?
via Yahoo Sports
In any line of work, safety comes first. However, the NBA doesn’t mind breaking the rules for a few of its star basketball players. When it comes to their greatest asset, LeBron James, the NBA will do anything to keep him on the court. Recently, the 38-year-old attended a May 17th promotional event for Lobos 1797 Tequila with Drake and Michael B. Jordan. The NBA received word of their star player’s outing and a rogue spokesperson immediately reported that James violated the safety protocols. Furthermore, Chief communications officer Mike Bass explained that, “James attended an outdoor event that required participants to receive vaccinations or return with a negative test result.”
However, the NBA countered the spokesman’s earlier statement. The organization stated that a “consultation with medical experts” determined that James case hadn’t been severe enough to suspend him for the season. Even more shocking, the NBA admitted that they allowed several other players with a similar situation to play the rest of the season. In other words, the NBA isn’t abiding by their own safety protocols.

The NBA may have allowed LeBron James to keep playing ball. However, everyone’s still wondering if the Lakers player received his vaccinations. During Sunday’s game, a reporter inquired James if he’s been vaccinated. Though, James seemingly dodged the reporter’s intrusive question, noting that “anything I do off the court is predicated to my family.” Basically, the 38-year-old told the reporter to stay out of his business.

Rap music has always been regarded as an unapologetic music genre. For years, the music genre has received criticism for using sexual slander and violent imagery. Fortunately, some emcees have decided to change the game for the better. More importantly, they have refused to use offensive visuals and verbiage in their bars. However, Jay Park clearly isn’t apart of that movement. Recently, the Asian rapper came under fire for using an offensive lyric in his remixed track “Mukkbang.” Some rappers just take things too far.
Jay Park’s Offensive Lyric
via Allkpop
Despite having successfully integrated himself into the rap culture, Jay Park just took two steps backward with the release of his remix for “Mukkbang.” Recently, the star faced immediate backlash after comparing himself to the Islamic God Allah on the remixed track. Even new artists know that mixing religious figures with rap isn’t a good idea. Furthermore, critics criticized Jay Park for his lack of respect towards the Islamic religion. One disappointed fan wrote, “When will these artists stop using Islamic things for their aesthetics and have a basic decency for our religion ? Its too normalized and they sweep it under the rug everytime :(.” Unfortunately, artists don’t do their homework recording a lyric. Making matters worse, Jay Park tried to defend his usage of the offensive lyric. “It’s not a big deal.” Clearly, the Asian rapper addressed the backlash with the wrong response.
Fans School The Rapper
via Koreaboo
Jay Park didn’t see any harm in using the offensive lyric in his song. Though, fans made sure to school him. Moreover, his earlier response immediately changed after the rap star issued an apology to his fanbase last Thursday. “As I read the comments (not the hateful ones but the ones actually trying to educate me on it’s offensive). . . . It’s not my place to use something that means so much to Muslim people in my rap lyrics freely. I apologize to all my Muslim fans,” the rapper tweeted. Hopefully, he’s learned a viable lesson.
In today’s world, pop culture has a heavier influence in the face of politics. President Obama and Biden released several playlists during their presidency. Even politicians have referenced song lyrics from HipHop artists during Donald Trump’s court proceedings. The unthinkable happened once again when NYC mayoral candidate Andrew Yang revealed his favorite Jay-Z song during an interview. The politician’s answer will surprise HipHop fans.
The NYC Mayoral Candidate Reveals His Favorite Rapper
via The AV Club
It’s always interesting to learn the musical taste of our favorite politicians. As Andrew Yang makes his rounds around town in an effort to win the vote for New York’s newest Mayor, he drops a few details about himself. Particularly, during an interview on Ziwe with host Ziwe Fumudoh, Yang revealed his love for HipHop music. “I listened to a lot of hip-hop in the 90s and 2000s,” he said during the interview with Ziwe. When asked about his favorite rappers, Yang mentioned Nas and Jay-Z. The two legendary emcees have been regarded as the rap kings of New York, making Yang’s choice all the more fitting.
Furthermore, Ziwe insisted that Andrew Yang name his favorite Jay-Z song. Of course, no one can be a Jay-Z fan without naming their favorite Hov song. In a leaked clip from the interview scheduled for May 23rd, Yang shared that his really loves “Numb/Encore.” Technically, the song belongs to long-time rock band Linkin Park and featured Jay-Z on the track. Fortunately, Yang made up for his earlier answer by adding “N***as in Paris” as his back-up choice. Careful not to offend anyone, Yang immediately referred to the title as “Ninjas in Paris.” He has got good taste in music, that’s for sure. If Yang becomes the next mayor of New York, he’ll be one hip politician.
Jay-Z’s Not A Fan Of Andrew Yang
via BrooklynVegan
While NYC mayoral candidate Andrew Yang fanboys over Jay-Z, the rap mogul certainly isn’t a fan of him. Back in April, Jay-Z cast his vote in former CitiGroup CEO Ray McGuire, in an effort to replace the current NYC mayor at the time. Other hip-hop greats such as Nas, Diddy and Steve Stoute helped endorsed the CitiGroup CEO as well. There’s no information yet on why Jay-Z didn’t support Yang but we’re sure it stings a little. Hov clearly doesn’t see Andrew Yang as leader material.

Then, Dexter pushes to create some distance from them but reassuring he would join them later.
A crucial driving force in this finale was his guilt and his sister Deb. The knowlege of what became of his inaction crippled him.

What Does Michael C Hall Think of the revival?
Michael C Hall says countless times that timing was a key role in why he decided to revisit his role of Dexter. The timing was write and the original showrunner, Clyde Phillips was back on board so it was a no-brainer for Hall who is excited to jump into the new season and fix the errors of the Season 8 finale. Hall recently explained why now was the right time to bring Dexter back saying,
“This one is based on the passage of time. It will unfold in real time, as if a significant amount of time has passed since the finale.”

So, I assume everyone is watching The Boys and are eagerly waiting for any crumb of news they can sink their teeth in, like the cannibalistic vultures they are. Wait, there’s people who haven’t? Well what in the vought, F***sakes, are you waiting for?
The Boys is some of the best programing out there that bases it’s story in the comic book of the same name. However, it turns everything we know about supes on its head. Who can you trust, if you can’t trust the Superheroes “made to protect you?” Jensen joins the cast as Soldier Boy.
The Boys, Season 3

Eric Kripe did a podcast were he talks about the show. It’s an hour long but worth a listen. For those who want a quick idea of what to expect for Season three, read on.
What to expect this season on The Boys?
In Season 3, we’ll delve deeper into the origins of Vought and the Seven with the introduction of Jensen’s Soldier Boy. Vought is never as it seems and Soldier Boy, is a catalyst for that exploration.
The Boys Season 3 / What to expect Amazon Prime | Dynamite Entertainment
Not the Idyllic Past that Vought’s pushing with propaganda
“We’re introducing Soldier Boy and the team Payback in Season 3 to explore how we arrived at this point.”
Kripke told Entertainment Weekly. Soldier Boy was part of an original team called Payback. Additional members of said team are Stormfront, Eagle the Archer, Tek Knight, and Chrimson Countess. Those characters will get fleshed out as the viewer learn about Soldier Boy’s past.
“By exploring the supes’ history, we can shed light on America’s past and the circumstances that led us to our current situation. Soldier Boy provides the perfect opportunity for us to delve into that.”
More blood and violenpce
Season three will be a bloodbath. If Alonso’s intel is right, it will be all about the gore and shock factor. Laz Alonso, who plays Mother’s milk, has confirmed to Collider that there will be at least three times the amount of bloodshed this season.
“I had a chat with the lead makeup artist who handles blood ordering among her many tasks. Surprisingly, in Season 2, they didn’t use more than a gallon of blood in total. However, for Season 3, we’re already at three and a half gallons. That should give you an idea of where things are heading.”
Soldier Boy, “The original Superhero.”
The Boys Season 3 Amazon Prime
Soldier boy played by Jensen Ackles is a soldier who was seemingly one of the first recipients of Compound V during World War II. He represents Vought’s beginnings. Reportedly, he fought on the Allied side, since Frederick Vought switched sides. Soldier Boy supposedly served in war but Butcher discovers evidence to lead him to have some doubts.
Superhuman strength: Soldier Boy is not as strong as Homelander, Stormfront, or any other supes. However, his strength is similar to that of a super-soldier.
Soldier Boy possesses: incredible speed, effortlessly evading both bullets and physical attacks.
Skilled use of his shield: Soldier Boy is an expert user of his shield, which he uses as a melee weapon.
Expertise in hand-to-hand combat: Soldier Boy is able to be in control and alongside his speed, repeatedly throwing blows that stun opponents.
Although, he has one glaring weakness: Cowardice. Soldier Boy is naïve and eager to please others. Hmmm… that sounds like something that will be exploited next season.
Stay Tuned for a Vought broadcast…
Erik Kripe revealed in his twitter, a new twitter account, Vought International. It appears this twitter will be where they tease Season 3. It’s a clever way to promote the season given how they have used the propoganda to drive the show.
There is no official word regarding a possible release date for The Boysseason 3 but everyone is on the edge of their seats ready for our boys to take down some corrupt supes.

Nas has signed a deal with Sony Music, which also includes releasing his own music through the label. This marks a significant milestone for the Queensbridge rapper as he returns to Sony Music, the same label he worked with for his early albums like Illmatic, It Was Written, and I Am…, before joining Def Jam in 2006.
Nas expressed his excitement about this homecoming, calling it a full circle moment. He sees this partnership as an opportunity to continue pushing the culture forward, educating, and inspiring. Nas is thrilled to be a part of this initiative and is looking forward to the journey ahead.
Perks of Being With Mass Appeal Records
Founded in 2014, Mass Appeal Records’ entire roster will be able to access The Orchard’s label and artist services. This includes everything from distribution and marketing to licensing, videos, data analysis, advertising, rights management, and radio promotion.
Mass Appeal CEO’s Excitement
Mass Appeal CEO Peter Bittenbender offered his opinion on the deal.
“We’re excited to be back with The Orchard team. Brad and his staff have done an amazing job, and we’re eager to bring our exceptional talent and projects to further elevate their presence in the Hip Hop industry. We have big plans, including a significant project for our Hip Hop 50 platform.”
Nas Discusses Rap Culture Trend
As a result of a shift in interests and business power moves in the industry, a lot has changed in 15 years. During his December 2006 interview with Complex, Nas explained how rap music was a priority for Def Jam, more than Sony Music.
“Things are going well,” he said. “Sony is a big company, not really known for rap music. Def Jam, on the other hand, is more involved in Hip Hop, more genuine, if you know what I mean.”
Later in the interview, Nas revealed he mentioned his decision to turn down the opportunity at Atlantic records. The offer was for him to be co-president of Atlantic Records alongside current CEO, Craig Kallman.
“It is a big position for Craig Kallman or for Irv Gotti, but I rap,” he said. “A president is something to do when you’re in somebody like [JAY-Z’s] position. Jay had hit a moment where he felt he needed to take the time off, so then it’s a great position. That’s not where I’m at. I don’t want to deal with artists, artists are fucking crazy. They want to blame me for shit and I can’t deal with that right now.”
A Fresh Vision for Nas
Previously, Nas made the decision to refrain from working with other artists. Now he’s spearheaded a new record deal. Stay tuned for what greatness comes from an artist being under his tutelage. And in the meantime, listen to “Sorry Not Sorry” if you’re in need of a pick-me-up.

The Confirmation: No Executive Plan to Cancel Student Loans
President Biden was adamant about relieving $50,000 of student loan debt for undergraduate and graduate students. However, he quickly changed the maximum amount he will approve to $10,000. In addition, he prefers for Congress to approve the legislation needed to roll out the plan.
“President Biden is awaiting reports from the US Justice Department and the US Department of Education to evaluate his authority to forgive student loan debt through executive order,” Kantrowitz explains.”Once he receives the report, which is expected to state that he doesn’t have the legal authority, the final decision will be in the hands of Congress.”
Student debt forgiveness has not been present in Biden’s proposed stimulus packages and his infrastructure package. Moreover, Forbes contributor Zack Friedman argues that “the number one reason Biden is unlikely to cancel student loans is simple. If he wanted to, he would have done it already.”
Experts Hope for Student Loan Forgiveness in The Future
Persis Yu, from The National Consumer Law Center’s Student Loan Borrower Assistance Project, is optimistic. Yu believes that Biden’s memo will confirm the president’s power to forgive student loans through executive action.
“Student loan borrowers are eager to see President Biden fulfill his campaign promise of widespread debt cancellation, especially as the payment suspension is approaching its end on September 30,” she explains. “Biden is currently reviewing the legality of student debt cancellation, and we are confident that this review will confirm what we believe: that the President already has the authority to cancel student debt on a large scale with a simple action.”
Biden Supported Student Loan Relief
People are critical of his limited action as president. Yet Biden used his executive authority to pause student loan payments during the year-long pandemic.
