Chic with Nile Rodgers, People, CNN, ABC, BET, FOXRobin Roberts & Whoopi Goldberg LOVE Them!!Music & Munchies is My Show Theme This Week: Soul Snacks Cookie Company!Music for this Segment: CHIC featuring Nile Rodgers - Let's Dance(Live At The House Sídney 2013)Everyone wants to be a leader in a world where people don't often possess the experience or expertise to be in the lead. That is gained from mastering the skills and learning to follow. Ralph Rolle is a prime example of learning to follow becoming born to lead.Ralph followed his older brother in learning the drums, but that he led him to becoming a premier musician, who has created music with everyone from super producer Nile Rodgers and his iconic disco/R&B group Chic, pop legends Sting and Bono, the 1st woman inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame Aretha Franklin, hip-hop giants Biggie Smalls and Queen Latifah, jazz superstar Chris Botti, the queen of Neo-Soul Erykah Badu, Vanessa Williams, soul crooner D'Angelo, songstylist India Arie, Lady Gaga, Dolly Pardon, Bono, Roger Daltry, John Legend, Joss Stone, Elvis Costello and playing in the resident band for N.B.C. ‘It's Showtime at The Apollo' for over 15 seasons. Ralph has also served as the musical director for syndicated “The Caroline Rhea Show” and he served in the same role for Japanese R&B/soul superstar Toshi Kubota.Ralph took the time, any time he had the time, to stop and cook and enjoy life. It helped him to come down from the tension and time on the road that was always in motion. Cooking, another gift he received from his mother, gave him the peace of mind he needed to slow down and breathe. And in learning his way around the kitchen, he started to bake. hat stayed with him and when he was hanging out with his musician friends, he would have his signature cookies. At first they laughed, but quickly the request became “please bring those cookies with you!”Over time, his cookies found their way into the hands of clients such as Westside Market, Franks Market, and many more. Good Morning America host chose Soul Snacks for her holiday gifting in 2011. In 2015, Bette Midler and Ralph met when Nile Rodgers and Chic were the guest artists and Ms. Midler's annual Hulaween Charity event. Ralph had his “cookie calling card” with him. Ms. Midler loved Soul Snacks so much that she placed orders for her family and friends. Soon, he was selling his cookies at Melba's, a legendary soul food restaurant in Harlem. The orders poured in and soon, he was featured in CNN, BET, ABC and FOX networks, in New York Times newspaper and in The Source and Vibe magazines. From there, Ralph gave birth to “SOUL SNACKS.”SOUL SNACKS offers a variety of delicious cookies such as Georgia Oatmeal Raisin, Peanut Peanut Butter, Down Home Double Chocolate Chip, Ebony and Ivory Almond Cookie, Grampy's Chocolate Peanut Butter Cookie, French Cocoa Chocolate Chip, Miami Raisin Walnut, Chunked Up Chocolate Walnut, Cranberry Oatmeal Raisin, Joyful Gingerbread and the most recently added, but now #1 seller, Sweet Potato Cookies. “Inside of every cookie is years of heart, soul and lots of pride that has been the main ingredient of SOUL SNACKS Cookies for over a decade.”All Rights Reserved © 2025 Building Abundant Success!!Join Me on ~ iHeart Media @ https://tinyurl.com/iHeartBASSpot Me on Spotify: https://tinyurl.com/yxuy23baAmazon Music ~ https://tinyurl.com/AmzBASAudacy:  https://tinyurl.com/BASAud

The Notorious B.I.G. entered adulthood as a crack dealer and left this world as one of the most famous hip-hop stars of all time. He was murdered mysteriously and before that was arrested almost too many times to count.

But that whole saga almost never happened. Find out what changed the course of Biggie Smalls' life and ultimately led to his untimely demise in part one of The Notorious B.I.G. story.

Welcome to this week's Indie Artist Music hustle with Blonde Intelligence. I am your host, Ms. Roni and I always seek to give you exquisite cranial repertoire. Producer and artist 705 takes us on a fascinating journey through his musical evolution, from his childhood in Lagos, Nigeria to becoming a rising star in London's vibrant music scene. With a sound he describes as "Afrofusion," 705 seamlessly blends hip-hop, R&B, and Afrobeats to create something uniquely personal yet universally appealing."It's a fusion of everything," he explains, detailing how Western influences like Biggie Smalls and 112 mesh with African icons like Fela Kuti in his music. This cultural hybridity shines through in tracks like "Filmtrick," where English rap meets Yoruba lyrics over infectious production. What stands out most is 705's commitment to musical authenticity in an increasingly artificial landscape. When discussing the rise of AI in music creation, he stands firm: "The human mind is smarter than AI. AI is supposed to help you, not do it for you."Throughout our conversation, 705 shares valuable insights about the music industry – from his preference for genuine collaborations over paid features to the evolving importance of visual branding. His business philosophy echoes that of his musical hero 50 Cent, focusing on longevity and authentic storytelling. "Music should have a purpose," he insists. "You shouldn't just make noise in people's ears."As 705 prepares to release new summer-ready tracks that further explore his Afrofusion sound with Yoruba rap elements, it's clear we're witnessing an artist who honors his roots while boldly pushing forward.

In which The Curmudgeons examine the last great era for hip-hop, namely the years between 1999 and 2008. After the catastrophe that was the murders of Tupac Shakur and Biggie Smalls, hip-hop could have imploded and or lost its footing--or even its respect as a genre. Instead, the movement throughout the 1990s, in which the hardcore went mainstream, carried over in the new century. In fact, hip-hop as a popular music genre exploded, becoming more successful than ever. In the process, genuine pop superstars like Eminem, DMX, Jay-Z, OutKast and Kanye West rose to glory. We discuss those artists and much more on this episode.    Listen to all the great music of this last stand for hip-hop by accessing our special Spotify playlist: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/79etpkKGK52DHWnj0xsPU8?si=725307acab964915   Here's a handy navigation companion to this episode:   (00:52 - 04:24) - Arturo Andrade sets the parameters for our discussion of real hip-hop's last stand   (05:27 - 16:45) - The Parallel Universe, featuring reviews of new albums by Benjamin Booker and Squid   (17:45 - 01:32:31) - We discuss Eminem, DMX, Jay-Z, Kanye West, OutKast and more   (01:34:05 - 02:30:06) - We blaze through a lightning round of 54 top hip-hop singles from this era   Join our Curmudgeonly Community today! facebook.com/groups/curmudgeonrock   Hosted on Podbean! curmudgeonrock.podbean.com   Subscribe to our show on these platforms: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-curmudgeon-rock-report/id1551808911   https://open.spotify.com/show/4q7bHKIROH98o0vJbXLamB?si=5ffbdc04d6d44ecb   https://music.amazon.com/podcasts/5fea16f1-664e-40b7-932e-5fb748cffb1d/the-   Co-produced and co-hosted by The Curmudgeons - Arturo Andrade and Christopher O'Connor

Sign-up for my free 20-day devotional, The Word Before Work Foundations, at http://TWBWFoundations.com--Series: Mere Christians in the BibleDevotional: 4 of 5In the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, we command you, brothers and sisters, to keep away from every believer who is idle and disruptive and does not live according to the teaching you received from us. (2 Thessalonians 3:6)We're in a series exploring wisdom for our work from some “Mere Christians of the Bible”—believers who did not work as pastors or donor-supported missionaries, but as shepherds, winemakers, and more. That would have described most of the believers at the Church of Thessalonica, whom Paul rebuked for idleness in 1 Thessalonians 4 and 2 Thessalonians 3.Why were these mere Christians idle? The Theology of Work Project suggests they fell for “a common, but false” idea that “Christ's coming into the world has radically diminished the value of everyday labor,” and that some believers were “using some aspect of Christ's teaching—whether it was his second coming, or his commission to evangelize the world—to justify their idleness.”But Paul rejected this outright. As he made clear in nearly all his epistles, mere Christians keep watch for Christ's return not by sitting on our hands but by working with them.If you're reading The Word Before Work, you likely don't need to be told to work hard. But even the hardest working can slowly slide into subtle slothfulness. How can you and I avoid this? Here are three ideas.#1: “Tape the audience.” The rapper Biggie Smalls once gave some surprising direction to his videographer. Instead of filming him, Biggie said, “Every time a song drops, tape the audience. I wanna see their reaction.” Because Biggie was committed to working hard in service of his customers. Avoid idleness by metaphorically “taping the audience” of your work by regularly asking your boss or customers for critical feedback, shadowing end users to see where your product creates friction, or tracking the customer engagement metric you've been avoiding for fear of what it might say.#2: Audit where you're busy but not productive. Review tasks you completed 30-60 days ago and ask, “Did this move the needle?” With some distance, you'll spot where you're frantic with activity that's leading to nowhere.#3: Make a grand gesture to break bad habits that tempt you to idleness. Last year, I struggled with apps that tempted me toward subtle slothfulness. After setting and failing to keep “screen time limits,” I made a grand gesture and spent $50 on this device that solved my problem overnight.Whatever works for you works. But do whatever you must to avoid the slow slide to subtle slothfulness. Strive, as Paul did, to “strenuously contend with all the energy” you have—for the glory of God and the good of others (Colossians 1:29).

#238: Tupac Shakur kommt aus der Bronx und wird mit Anfang 20 zum Rap-Megastar. In den 90ern feiert er in Los Angeles riesige Erfolge. Am Höhepunkt seiner Karriere lernt er den Rapper The Notorious B.I.G. kennen. Schnell werden sie beste Freunde – und genauso schnell erbitterte Feinde. Ihr Streit steht symbolisch für einen noch viel größeren Konflikt: die Fehde zwischen dem Hip-Hop der West- und Ostküste der USA. Auf der einen Seite: P. Diddys Label “Bad Boy Records” in New York. Auf der anderen: Suge Knights “Death Row Records” in LA. Die Spannung zwischen der East und West Coast werden immer deutlicher – bis sie am 7. September eskaliert: Tupac wird bei einem Drive-By in Las Vegas erschossen. Bis heute bleibt die Frage: Wer steckt hinter dem Attentat auf den Rapstar? Auf Social Media habt ihr euch eine zweite Folge zum Fall P. Diddy gewünscht. Aktuell gibt es noch nicht genug öffentliche Informationen, um eine weitere Folge dazu zu veröffentlichen. Deswegen besprechen Linn und Leo heute einen Fall, der eng mit P. Diddy verknüpft ist.

In this commentary episode of the Patrick coffin show, Patrick does a review of the players and principles surrounding the bull's eye of the target known as Sean “Diddy” Combs, arrested last month by Damian Williams, the United States Attorney for the Southern District of New York, and William S. Walker, the Acting Special Agent in Charge of the New York Field Office of Homeland Security Investigations.   Diddy was charged with a three-count indictment for racketeering conspiracy, sex trafficking, and transportation to engage in prostitution.     But this case is not about celebrity gossip or the downfall of one or two bad apples.    It is a revelation of the depth of depravity and denial that has always characterized the entertainment industry. The Diddy indictment alleges that between 2008 and 2024, he abused, threatened, and coerced women and others, and led a racketeering conspiracy that engaged in sex trafficking, forced labor, kidnapping, arson, bribery, and obstruction of justice, among other crimes.   In the Hollyweird orbit of Epsteins and Weinsteins, why would a Combs indictment for similar behavior shock us? There are more questions to be asked.   Topics covered in this episode:   Why is no one talking about the “family tree” of mentorship and manipulation by the man who discovered Diddy, R&B producer Andre Harrell, and the man who discover Harrell—the creepy self-described bisexual Clive Davis, founder of Arista Records. How did Diddy's career really start? The litany of people connected to Diddy who showed up dead or seriously ill, like ex-girlfriend Kim Porter, JayZ's pregnant mistress Cathy White, singer Aaliyah, and radio host Wendy Williams. Former insiders to follow: R&B singer Jaguar Wright, comedian Katt Williams, and former Diddy bodyguard Gene Deal. Troubled rappers connected to Diddy: JayZ, Drake, Usher, 50 cent, Tupac Shakur, Biggie Smalls (aka the Notorious BIG), R. Kelly   Rappers are black proxies for largely non-black owners, who seem always to escape justice   Puff Combs' Bay Boy Records (owned by BMG, sold to Sony in 2008, CEO Rob Stringer; Travis Scott's Cactus Jack Records, distributed by Epic Records, owned by Sony Music Entertainment, CEO Rob Stringer; Drake's OVO Sound, an imprint of Warner Records from its formation until 2022, CEO Aaron Bay-Schuck; Tyler, The Creator, Odd Future Records, parent company, Sony Music Entertainmen, CEO Rob Stringer; Legendary DEF JAM records, parent company Universal Music Group, CEO Sir Lucian Grainge; Jay Z's Rock a Fella Records, owned by Universal Music Group, CEO is Sir Lucian Grainge; 50 Cent's G-Unit Records, owned by Universal Music Group, CEO Sir Lucian Grainge; Usher and Justin Bieber's RBMG Island Def Jam Music Group, run by Tunji Balogun, but the parent company is Universal Music Group, CEO Sir Lucian Grainge; Yo Gotti's Collective Music Group CMG, owned by parent company, Universal Music Group, CEO Lucian Grainge; Dr. Dre's Aftermath Records, a subsidiary of Universal Music Group, and distributed through Interscope Records, CEO Sir Sir Lucian Grainge (Dickon Stainer in the UK)   The grandaddy of all the non black music executives is Clive Davis, the main puppet master of Diddy, and the man who launched careers dating back to the 60s, from Tony Orlando, the Bay City Rollers, Aretyha Franklin, Whitney Houston and many others up to: Justin Bieber, perhaps the highest profile troubled artist in this toxic space.

Investigating for the hidden truth, putting the puzzle pieces together, building a strong case, leading with objectivity … you might be thinking of the responsibility of business leaders. But today, we're exploring these same familiar elements from the perspective of a field where this holds greater weight. We're speaking about investigations & interrogations with private investigator and retired LAPD detective, Greg Kading.After 25 years working homicide in Los Angeles, Greg hasn't taken off his detective hat, even after retiring. Instead turning to the PI world and storytelling, speaking about and writing of the cases he's worked (and solved). Today, Greg is well known for writing Murder Rap, a recount of the cold case he and his task force took on to solve the Biggie Smalls case. A three year investigation that ultimately led to the discovery of Biggie and Tupac's murders. It's a case that's thrust Greg into the spotlight, a shift from private case work that he's taken easily, led by the resolution that the truth should be shared, wherever possible.It's also given Greg an opportunity to shine a light on the real life challenges of a detective, past the glamourous portrayal in books, movies and TV. Greg underpins the patience required of a detective: not getting evidence analyzed instantaneously, answers not revealing themselves easily, sometimes needing to start at the beginning and retracing your steps to see what you missed. Police work is naturally full of departmental procedures and red tape, which makes it even more imperative not to rush into short cuts or false conclusions. Maintaining objectivity and removing ego are two critical aspects of doing great police work. Greg stresses that sometimes we become entranced with an idea of what the truth is and lose sight of what the facts are actually telling us. The process for a detective is therefore quite scientific, in forming a hypothesis and working to disprove it. Instead of what most may imagine - working to prove a hunch. “Within reason, all things are possible” - Greg's says this theory of openness is critical driving out bias in the investigative process.But this all takes time. You don't become a detective once you get the badge; you get there through experience, learning, and building your natural instincts. While that feels very familiar for those of us in the business world, who are often placed in role without learned experience, it's also in Greg's world rife with deception, after all, suspects have motive to lie and misdirect. It requires careful study of human psychology to spot the red flags that may point to that deception, and perhaps surprisingly, it also demands empathy. While technology has advanced and will continue to progress the fields of forensics, profiling and surveillance, in his decades-long experience investigating crimes, Greg has been led by human psychology. He says it's important to marry various human insights and technological resources at your disposal in gathering evidence to form a hypothesis. And of course, then working to disprove it, in the search for the one truth.>>>To look outside, Greg goes back into nature and spends time with the people close to him – without a phone or work on the mind. >>>Greg Kading is an American author and former Los Angeles Police Department detective best known for working on a multi law-enforcement task force that investigated the murders of rappers Tupac Shakur and Biggie Smalls in the mid-2000s.Read Murder Rap: the untold story of the Biggie Smalls & Tupac Shakur Murder Investigations.Listen to

When a musician dies and leaves behind unfinished music, what should happen to it? Shelved forever? Released in its current state? Completed by someone else?  On this week's episode Greg and Stu get into when posthumous albums are a good idea and when they most certainly aren't, from last week's SOPHIE album, to work from Michael Jackson, Tupac, Biggie Smalls and Elliott Smith. But not before sharing the week's headlines about Radiohead going Shakespeare, Tears For Fears going AI, and Green Day going anti-Vegas.  You can watch clips of the podcast online now, just give us a follow on Instagram @midnightchatspod.  Further reading/listening/viewing Listen to our new Beat the Algorithm Spotify playlist Hamlet Hail to the Thief tickets Credits: Editing by Stuart Stubbs  Mixing and mastering by Flo Lines Artwork by Kate Prior  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

We have a legend on I'd Rather Be Reading today, friends. None other than Malcolm Gladwell is here to talk about his latest book, Revenge of the Tipping Point: Overstories, Superspreaders, and the Rise of Social Engineering, which is out October 1. Revenge of the Tipping Point comes nearly 25 years after Malcolm's 2000 book The Tipping Point: How Little Things Can Make a Big Difference, a bestseller that took his career to the next level and ushered in a new genre of books. Today on the show we talk to Malcolm about what made him want to return to the concept of The Tipping Point and if there was unfinished business there; what a tipping point is, exactly; and how, as he writes in Revenge of the Tipping Point, “the very same tools we use to build a better world can also be used against us.” As he puts it, Revenge of the Tipping Point is a study of the underside of possibilities he explored a quarter century ago. We talk about social engineering, social epidemics, monocultures, overstories, his process, and how we can use tools necessary to control an epidemic to build a better world. So much here, and I'm excited to dig into all of it with you listeners today. Malcolm Gladwell is someone I've mentioned on the show before — I've read all of his books, and I'm a big fan. He is a journalist, author, and public speaker who has been a staff writer for The New Yorker since 1996. In addition to publishing seven New York Times bestselling books (and I have no doubt his latest, his eighth, will become a bestseller, too), he is a podcaster — his show “Revisionist History” is a must-listen. His work is in the realm of sociology and psychology, social sciences, and after the success of The Tipping Point in 2000, books like Blink, Outliers, What the Dog Saw, David and Goliath, Talking to Strangers, and The Bomber Mafia followed. His books are massive bestsellers, he's one of the forefront thinkers of our time, and has even been named one of TIME's 100 most influential people. Revenge of the Tipping Point marks Malcolm's eighth book, and I'm thrilled to chat with him about it today. I also want to throw this in here for good measure — he has a cat named Biggie Smalls, so that's absolutely amazing. Take a listen.   Revenge of the Tipping Point: Overstories, Superspreaders, and the Rise of Social Engineering by Malcolm Gladwell

Sean “Diddy” Combs has been a polarizing music mogul for much of his career, going back to the early 90s. He made his name by creating the now infamous Bad Boy Records on the backs of artists like Biggie Smalls. His rise to the top of the music industry was never without controversy, but over the last year, what was suspected has now turned into an arrest. Follow Joel down a path of industry corruption as he looks into Diddy's life and his impact on Hip-Hop. He presents the charges brought against Sean Combs and how much of it can be considered applicable in court. He then reviews former Bad Boy artists' abrupt departures from the label and Diddy's involvement in occult rituals as a foundation for the mogul's position today.

Patrick Bet-David sits down with Diddy's former bodyguard Gene Deal, who offers candid insights into Diddy's rise to fame, federal connections, and the night of Biggie Smalls' murder. ------

In this episode of "Hidden Killers With Tony Brueski," retired FBI Special Agent Robin Dreeke discusses the mounting case against Sean "Diddy" Combs, particularly in relation to the infamous East Coast-West Coast rap rivalry and the murders of Tupac Shakur and Biggie Smalls. Dreeke and Brueski examine the recent charges against Dwayne "Keefe D" Davis, who has implicated Diddy in offering a $1 million bounty on the heads of Tupac and Suge Knight. They delve into the challenges of proving such a case, given the credibility issues with key witnesses, many of whom are deceased, and the muddy waters of gang affiliations and law enforcement misconduct. Dreeke suggests that investigators might focus on uncovering financial crimes, such as money laundering, as these could provide a clearer path to prosecution. He emphasizes that tracking the flow of money from Diddy to those involved in the hit on Tupac could be crucial. The conversation underscores the complexities of the case and the broader implications for the music industry if a substantial connection to Diddy is proven. **Main Points:** - Examination of the case against Sean "Diddy" Combs regarding the murders of Tupac Shakur and Biggie Smalls. - Charges against Dwayne "Keefe D" Davis and his claims implicating Diddy. - Challenges in proving the case due to witness credibility and deceased key players. - Potential focus on financial crimes, such as money laundering, to build a case. - Importance of tracking money flow from Diddy to those involved in the hit on Tupac. - Broader implications for the music industry if a connection to Diddy is proven. - Complexity and ongoing nature of the investigation. #SeanCombs #Diddy #TupacShakur #BiggieSmalls #RobinDreeke #TonyBrueski #EastCoastWestCoastRivalry Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?
