"For the Love of Money (FTLOM) is Eshon Burgundy’s [fifth official project]. The record examines American culture and economics through the lens of Scripture, continually pushing back on the idolatry of riches and encouraging listeners who feel they lack wealth. Eshon argues that reliance on God is a much greater treasure than financial certainty about tomorrow." (Ezydu). Source

STREAM THE FULL ALBUM HERE

I have songs I like more than others but this album is pretty much unskippable. And that is rare for an album 20 songs deep nowadays.

A blend of dope production, deep thought provoking lyrics, and an assist from artist like Steven Malcom, Jeremiah Bligen, and S.O. make this twenty track work of art my album of the year for 2019.

MIAMI (AP) — Highlighting his record on religious liberty, President Donald Trump on Friday worked to energize a group of evangelical supporters who make up an influential piece of his political base that could prove vital in battleground states.

Trump spoke to more than 5,000 Christians, including a large group of Latinos, at a Miami megachurch, just days after he was the subject of a scathing editorial in Christianity Today magazine that called for his removal from office. Thousands of the faithful lifted their hands and prayed over Trump as he began speaking and portrayed himself as a defender of faith.

THINGS we found along the way

It’s an age-old question among Black basketball fans: Why won’t more top recruits play for HBCUs? After all, Black folks have long dominated the sport on every single level of competition — why not take those talents to a historically Black college and let those institutions of higher learning reap the same benefits that predominately white schools enjoy from the free labor of elite collegiate athletes?

MORE: The 10 Greatest HBCU Basketball Players Of All-Time

Those questions could be answered in just a few years since prep school sports website Verbal Commits reported that LeBron James’ son, Bronny James, was offered an athletic scholarship from North Carolina Central University. The namesake son of one of the greatest to ever play the game of basketball is just a 15-year-old freshman, but he already has two other standing offers from NCAA powerhouses Duke University and the University of Kentucky.

With that said, the 6-2 guard with a mean crossover isn’t even a starter for his top 10 nationally ranked Sierra Canyon High School basketball team, so these scholarships have been offered based on Bronny’s pedigree and promise alone. Duke and Kentucky will likely stay true to their offers, but if Bronny doesn’t live up to the unreal expectations that have placed on his young shoulders, he may not get much playing time during his expected one-and-done freshman season in college.

Enter HBCUs.

If Bronny only becomes half the player his father is, he would still be incredibly good — just, perhaps not major college basketball good. However, taking those same talents to an HBCU — where he could be a big fish in a little pond versus swimming among the sharks in the ACC or SEC — could equally help nurture his skills and allow him to lead an underdog team into the NCAA tournament.
