  • It’s ok

    I enjoy the show for the most part, but I don’t like the question of the day. It always ends up with a bunch of folks calling in talking down on a BW. Even on a question about a man loving his wife, and putting her first, most of the callers was mad about a BW having a man that loves her like that. Bringing the Bible in to it and everything. Everybody doesn’t subscribe to that, and he didn’t mention anything about the bible. Any reason to disparage Black women. I wish the questions would sta... more

Full Show | Bimbos, Grammy Winners & Shoe Booty
Q: How do you think it is to navigate that space where all of a sudden you can be in all these different worlds?
Robert Glasper says the internet helps him reach different audiences, but his genre-crossing grew from years of performing and recording within jazz, R&B, and hip-hop communities.
DLHS HOUR 3 | Robert Glasper, The View & Shoe Booty of the Week
Q: How do you think it is to navigate that space where all of a sudden you can be in all these different worlds?
Robert Glasper says the Internet helps him reach audiences in different genres, and that he earned credibility by spending years working with artists in those musical communities rather than suddenly crossing over.
DLHS HOUR 2 | Do Women Still Need Men?
Q: So is this chick right? Do you guys not need me anymore? Because you're providers now.
Callers debate whether women's financial independence changes their need for men, citing companionship, love, family responsibilities, and the importance of working together when one partner earns more.
DLHS HOUR 2 | Do Women Still Need Men?
Q: Do you agree, Skip, do you think they don't need us anymore because they're providers?
The callers offer differing views: some say women do not need men financially but value partnership and support, while others argue that love, family, and shared responsibilities make people need one another.
DLHS Hour 3 | Actor Wendy Raquel Robinson Joins DLHS Crew
Q: Have you ever been kicked out of a bar?
