If you want a school plan check out DR Umar Johnson

I got an business idea I will be sharing later but hopefully this will help us as a whole.

 

[AP21]

i just pressed play and let it play in the background like a podcast

Dude really needs a podcast

 

[whatevathehell]

BETWEEN HIM AND KILLA MIKE... WE STILL GOT HOPE OUT HERE!

I wish they would do an album together.That would be nuts if they had beats from dude from Run your jewels and Banner.

naw, like somebody already said his music so so and he like to say suck a dick bitch boi a lil too much. I personally think the interview was overhyeped he made some key point about not integrating and being stornger by making it on our own but some of it was too broad.

Wish i had people i could bounce views Intelligently with on topics like this in real life .

It's kinda irritating when it is hard to find people in my generation with an intellectual mind because I might jump into a deep conversation & they won't have the knowledge to contribute to it. So they'll be there & looking lost then say "Sanford, you are smart". I'm like "mmmm yea, but it'll be good to feed back me knowledge to, so our opinions can bounce off each other". I have one friend that she is pretty intellectual tho but we hardly talk because we both be busy with our separate lives but whenever we get on the same call then we drama game on each other for hours.

Spoke a lot of powerful topics but realistically...

How is segregation even possible in this day and age?

Its impossible

my point is how can you have segregation with all the mixed families and children?

You cant

-Nat Geo on mixed marriages

-average American will look in 2050

of course jewels was dropped. a lot of which the IC been dropping for years though.

i think the bro would be more powerful if he sacrificed them worldly pleasures he mention he like indulging in though. until then, he'll never go full Super Saiyan lv4 and his message will not have the full potential impact it could have. we understand you human and no one is perfect, but main part of the message is encouraging ppl to be the supreme being that is in them, well you can't do that without self control. and you can't have self control without sacrifice. Sacrifice them pleasures. and really do it. Like you said, you gotta suffer a bit. A god that make a habit of indulging into any 1 worldly pleasure is no god; that's a slave. The pleasure has more power over his body than he do, so that's his master. Even Guru kicked knowledge about that...

knowledge of Self is a start, but it don't necessarily translate into power. Especially if you still refuse to break free from them strip club traps. lol. Qtip and them niggas don't be knowing everything. The only true power you gonna ever have is in the control of your own body G. That is the #1 reason why niggas is stuck in them cyclones in the hood, doing the same crap over and over. lack discipline. It's not because we forgot we had ancestors in Egypt.

So basically a person hasnt reached their full potential until theyre perfect, no shit.

If you think having knowledge of self and knowledge power is being perfect, you've been sadly misinformed.

Lol @ "Q-tip and them niggas dont know everything", bruh where are you getting this information from that has you thinking niggas should know everything and be perfect?

Knowledge of self is meant to bring a sense of balance ,consciousness and confidence in your life , which ultimately helps you control your temptations and prevents you from indulging into worldly pleasures. There's many examples I could give,but Ill share one. In a capitalistic society that is based upon becoming rich off the esteem of the population, where people purchase things they truly dont need to fill a void within themselves because they have vacant esteem. Through knowledge of self and knowledge power , confidence and esteem is already instilled. A person with knowledge of self wont go out and purchase frivolous things to feel whole, because we already do.

So to say he should sacrifice his pleasures as if youve been living with him to see if has or not is foolish.

didn't said we supposed to have all knowledge of everything. More so im saying i understand knowledge of self have a lot of benefits but be reminded that knowledge of self ISNT everything. Dont forget once you have the knowledge then that mean now its even more responsibility to DO know you know u gotta do with it. so here self control comes into play. Im just dropping extra jewels. And a lot of people hang on to what these celebrities say because they're famous. but quick to forget when people right around the corner said similar things. im not here to knock the brother I did say of course he drop some good stuff.

and He mentioned he have a line saying he don't cuss but he like to fvck. Ok, thats wassup. do what u gotta do. Lol. but I just thought that it be cool if he mention we need to learn to be better self controlled than even that while on subject of being conscious and a supreme being

Brazil here we come with a tyrant mulatto class.

 

[So ILL]

46 minutes, though. One of ya'll give me a summary, I ain't going lol.

Brazil is mixed as fuck yet still segregated.

Majority of the ppl there regardless of how pale r dark there skin is are mixed. Yet it's segregated as hell. From hair color etc.

Yes u can, but some niggas are looking for excuses not to.

The same way they were free blacks n enslaved blacks. Slavery wasn't for every black person go ask the Haitians and freedom wasn't for every black enslaved person go read the john Brown story.

This shit ain't for every nigga.

This is for the niggas who wanna own shit, for the niggas tired of being underemployed n unemployed. This is for the niggas who wanna leave their kids with something . Niggas who wanna rebuild their communities.

You need a new circle, fam. If you're always the smartest and most intelligent person in a room...you need to visit some new rooms.

 

[mryounggun]

Next to Killer Mike, Banner definitely be dropping the most heart felt knowledge to black people and to just Americans in general.

 

[loch121]

Hold up...

Batman beats his momma?

that's fucked up

It was a dark night

yeah Banner is one of the realest out here and plays this game well.

 

[mryounggun]

Glad he mentioned that shit about a lot of the conscious music being trash. I be in the reason and a nigga will post some conscious shit with a good message but shitty lyrics and production. The convo usually goes like this:

ME: Nigga this shit is trash.

THEM: Nigga grow up? It's trash because he ain;t talking about killing niggas and fucking bitches?

ME: No, it's trash because this nigga can barely put to words together and this beat is terrible. Just cause it's uplifting and shit doesn't mean it gets a pass on the actual entertainment factor.

THEM:...Nigga shut up.

 

[BoogaSuga]

Hold up...

He a true American Psycho

I wish I could GOAT that video a million times. So much truth being told by Mr. Banner! A lot of things I say and feel was displayed by him in the vid

I agree 100% fam. The question Sway asked was where do we start tho, and he said we should start with finding our God and knowledge of self. Knowledge of self is a multiple hr conversation alone, but I agree knowledge of self isnt the end all be all.

Im glad you mentioned it tho, because conversation is key. One person cant do it alone, but if we come together, we'll be able to make changes.

 

[CapitalB]

finally got a chance to listen to it in its entirety..

glad he said it..

seein as people seem to respect titles..

and only wanna listen to people "branded" a certain way..

some things he said its not that i dont agree wit.. i jus think its unnecessary.. but he aint sayin nothin new we aint been sayin here..

alot of what he sayin i and a few others was jus sayin in the black vs niggas thread but i digress..

a few things i took from this interview.. the rest i already had.. dooe none the less..

Knowledge Reigns Supreme

He gave a lecture?

 

[fuc_i_look_like]

^^^^here niggas go getting giddy and shyt about the idea of america becoming more mixed race. idgaf, that shit aint a good look for black ppl when our population has stayed at a stagnant 12-13% for years. its always strength in numbers. but too many niggas aint thinking bout the improvment of the black race, just looking for an excuse 2 have mixed mutt babies w/ non blacks.
