Welcome back. In this week's episode Whitebeard takes to the mic solo once again. His topics are a long time coming. We have talked about many of today's thoughts over the past few weeks. As he was working on today's show Israel was attacked by Hamas and Israel returned fire. However today's show is about a growing concern over the decline of morals and decency in our elected officials. As well as the decline and current direction of western Christianity. An online debate between Christian rappers, Lecrae and Dee-1 over the possibly of being both "righteous and ratchet", push dad over the edge. It's a long one, so feel free to pause if needed. We hope you enjoy today's thoughts and leave a comment or questions we'd love to hear your thoughts as well. So, are you ready? Then let's talk... --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/t-anthony-bland/support
Baby don't hurt me for the cheesy (but very appropriate) title. You'll just have to listen in. Talking points: love, family, growing up as an immigrant, community, vulnerability, business, self-love vs self-respect vs self-esteem Huge honor to sit down with Humble the Poet last month. This was a fascinating and engaging conversation. I deeply appreciate his creative, spiritual, and energetic approach to one of biggest human questions: what is love, really?

Humble's next book Things No One Else Can Teach Us was released in the fall of 2019. Humble emphasizes the importance of making the relationship you have with yourself the best among all the relationships you currently have. This is because knowing your own self worth will make setting boundaries easier for you and for the people around you. We exchange thoughts on what makes us resilient, why self respect matters more than self-esteem, the constant validation we seek from others, and what makes love so simple.

Originally released: June 2018. Humble The Poet joins Special on The Special Delivery Podcast to break down 'Righteous/Ratchet'. The two talk about his song 'Mrs. Doubtfire' about mental health and how we judge celebrities struggling with mental health. They also spoke about 'I Will' being inspired by an experience with The Rock and the video being inspired by the movie 'Warriors'. The two also discussed wanting to make a music video for every song, his conversation with Lindsey Stirling about being patient with your craft, him writing about feelings instead of subjects, figuring out things about himself while writing the music, and being inspired by Outkast and Pharrell. When it comes to 'H.A.I.R.' he details what the acronym may or may not be and talks about how everything feels different in California. The two also talk about him only being 50% of the song, how important good engineers are, and the spoken word track 'Blame Muslims'.

This week The Righteous Ratchet and The Gangsta Geek discuss Chris Stylez' Twitter charges of sexual abuse, Instagram music battles and our KickbackBattles every Friday at 9PM on IG, ‘Rona updates, the Murder Hornets have invaded America and all the shit you should be watching and listening to so that you can give your mind a break.
I'm joined by the host of "I've Got Something To Say" Serena Boyd! We are wrapping up the the "Righteous & Ratchet" talk, discussing how the meaning of ratchetness has changed over time, the balance of the two concepts and the beauty of the wildness in being ratchet.
When looking at the definition of "ratchet," I think it's safe to say we can all find ourselves in the phrase "righteous and ratchet." Let me explain...
Many people struggle with living in a posture of worship and not feeling like they can't be themselves....human and sometimes (or all the time ratchet). Is it possible to love Jesus and listen to hip hop? If you live in worship, are you allowed to have a busy lifestyle or are you expected to lay on the floor praying day and night? Join me and Pastor, entrepreneur, husband and father Dezimon Alicea for part one of the discussion on Righteous & Ratchet. Learn more about Dezimon Alicea and Move Church at https://www.facebook.com/Movechurchgary/posts_to_page/. You can find out more about Christal Luster at www.christalluster.com.
