Simply put, Happy birthday and I love you Hip Hop.
Watching her grow has been one of the greatest joys of my life! The way I chose to make a living often times didn’t afford me the chance to see her. So when I do see my daughter, I don’t take those occasions lightly! Hug and love your kids as much as you can while you can!
Even tho we’ve been doing this for years, we never cheat the game. We rehearse! We perfect. We prepare! We do all this to give you the best possible show every time! No matter if it’s for 1 person or 1 million people! Shoutout to my brother @questlove and @theroots for always loving and respecting the arts!
Off the top of the dome! A lost art!
I am extremely honored to be chosen to talk about Hip Hop turning 50 and black men’s health. These are two topics I’m very passionate about. Link to full article in stories and bio.

Last Night in my hometown, I got to see one of my favorite and one of the most gifted and dynamic vocalist and artist I’ve ever seen. @bilalmusic . We have been brothers and worked together for a long time since he was a youngin and I was almost a youngin. It was a pleasure and a blessing to see him rocking Chicago and to get to rock with him. Love
A message from the Greatest!!! Friendship! Cherish them!
This weekend I was able to experience some of the greatest music and culture at the highest level in the purest way. Music that changed my life and shaped me. Thanks to everyone who was a part of the Hip Hop 50th celebration at Yankees stadium. A special thanks to @jenyameggs for including me and producing a great and epic event! One of the greatest moments in the history of music! 📷 @misshattan

📚 Exciting news, fam! I’ve got a new book coming in January 2024 called “AND THEN WE RISE.” 🌟 It’s all about health and wellness, inspired by the tough times we all experienced together a few years ago when everyone was thinking about staying healthy.
I started sharing my journey on @Instagram – working out and sharing healthy food recipes– and folks started asking for advice. So, I decided to put it all in a book to spread some good energy and love, especially in my communities.
This book covers it all: physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual health. It’s got my journey, from diet changes to workouts and even therapy for my mind and soul.
Remember, small changes can make a big difference. You don’t have to go from zero to a hundred. Find what works for you, fam, and you’ll be a better you. Pre-order link in bio.
Brown Sugar had the world asking, “When did you fall in love with hip-hop?” @common stopped by our #HipHop50 celebration and talked about writing a song for the film and his classic collaboration with @erykahbadu.
Happy birthday @nas ! There is so much I could say but I will spare the readers of this post the time it would take to read my remarks. Just know that NaS is one of those ones! Enjoy it brother!
Good day to all!!! My song “Find Your Peace” featuring the one and only @common, @robertglasper and @jeanbaylor is finally out! It is also my sincere pleasure to announce my new album titled ‘Foreverland,’ which will be out for you and the world this coming January!!!! I appreciate everyone of you who has supported me for so long and to now get to this place!
