Truth or Consequences
“In the great words of Erykah Badu, ‘We are artists and we are sensitive about our shit.’”
black performers are “disrespected” by the National Academy of Recording Arts and Sciences.
“That stops right now. I’m officially starting the clock. Y’all got 365 days to get this shit together,” Combs warned, who’s been known as Puff Daddy, P. Diddy, Brother Love, and Diddy at varying times during a 26-year recording career.
Combs, an earner of more than $825 million in the music industry, received the 2020 Grammy Salute to Industry Icons Award at the event held before a mostly black audience at the Beverly Hilton Hotel.
Combs dedicated the award to Michael Jackson, Prince, Beyonce, Missy Elliott, Snoop Dogg, Kanye West, and Nas, winners of a collective 72 Grammy honors.
“So I say this with love to the Grammys, because you really need to know this. Every year y’all be killing us, man. Man, I’m talking about the pain.
“The amount of time it takes to make these records, to pour your heart into it, and you just want an even playing field,” Combs whined.
He received a standing ovation.

“Hip-hop has never been respected”: Diddy slams Grammys in scathing Clive Davis event speech
Sean “Diddy” Combs, winner of the Industry Icon award at the Clive Davis pre-Grammy Gala, challenged the industry to get its act together in the next year when it comes to diversity. “I’m being honored by the industry that I love, the family that I love, but there’s an elephant in the room and it’s not just about the Grammys,” Combs said well ...

Earlier in the evening, Puff Daddy’s son Casey Combs performed.
Other acts included Faith Adams, Mase, Lil Kim, John Legend, Chance the Rapper, and Wyclef Jean.
Tonight’s 62nd annual Grammy Awards will air in prime time from Los Angeles' Staples Center.
Hip hopster Lizzo is widely expected to collect the most statuettes.
Record-low Nielsen ratings are also anticipated.
N.S.: Sean Combs has killed at least nine people (and maimed app. 29 more), including:
Sonya Williams 20
Sheila [?] Williams
Leonard Nelson 17,
Dirk Swain 20,
Charise Noel, 26,
Jubal (or Jabal) Rainey 15,
Yul Dargan 24, and
Darren Brown 29
On December 28, 1991, Sean Combs and the late Dwight Arrington Myers, a partner calling himself “Heavy D,” claimed to be holding a “fundraiser” celebrity basketball game and noise bash (alleged rap “concert”) for “AIDS Education.” In reality, it was a typical black “charity” event, like the one Wyclef Jean held, ostensibly for Haitian hurricane victims, where the sole beneficiary was Jean. Combs and Myers sold twice as many tickets as the City College auditorium could hold, there was little or no security or organization, and chaos broke out, causing the death of nine paying customers in a stampede.
Needless to say, though they were sued and had to pay settlements to people they’d harmed and to the survivors of their negligent homicide victims, Combs and Myers were never prosecuted. Why would they be? They were black, or black enough.
Combs says that black performers get insufficient “respect.” Obviously, he lives in a parallel universe.
But let’s get specific about Sean Combs. Combs has no talent as a:
Singer,
Dancer,
Songwriter,
Choreographer,
Music producer,
Movie or stage actor,
Clothing designer,
Concert/basketball game promoter, or
Public speaker.
And yet, he is a multimillionaire. Why are any blacks not millionaires?
I may have left out some of Combs’ non-talents. Feel welcome to add some in the comments.

Orlando, Florida Easter Bunny Antoine McDonald, 21, is back in the news.
Readers will remember McDonald when he was arrested last year after brawling [N.S.: brutally attacking a white drunk] outside a downtown nightclub:

“Easter Bunny Fights in Defense of Woman Outside Orlando, Florida Bar” | NBC News
A man in an Easter Bunny suit came to the defense of a woman outside a bar in Orlando, Florida. The altercation was broken up by a police officer on patrol in the area. It is unclear why the fight [sic] started and no one was arrested.
When McDonald returned to the scene the following day to bask in social media adulation, Florida authorities arrested him on outstanding warrants from New Jersey and Delaware.
A New Jersey court sought McDonald for his role in an auto-theft ring, identity theft, and driving to endanger.
Now the bunny bandit has been arrested on multiple violations including hit and run, leaving the scene of an accident with property damage, and operating a motorcycle without a license.
Police found McDonald hiding in the back of his brother's car concealed in his now familiar costume.
McDonald is currently at Advent Health Hospital in Altamonte Springs, Florida recovering from injuries sustained in the crash where he damaged a condominium's fencing and carport.
He is expected to be arraigned in an Orlando court tomorrow.

How did we get to a point where an African American multimillionaire, blessed with opportunities that the United States affords blacks, grouses about a dearth of recognition?
How did we get to a point where black males commit dozens of crimes in multiple jurisdictions wildly disproportionate to their numbers?
Why are they so often excused?
How did we get to a point where “diversity” takes precedence over merit most everywhere?
Tobias Langdon has some answers at the Occidental Observer, today:
“Humbug, Hypocrisy, and the Dismantling of White Western Identity” – The Occidental Observer
None of my best friends are Jewish, but two of my favourite authors are. One of those favourite writers is Larry Auster (1949–2013) from New York, who wrote some of the best and clearest analysis of liberalism and the American immigration disaster. Although he often criticized Jews for their central role in both, he also condemned Kevin MacDonald’s ideas as extremist and unacceptable.
