THE PRESIDENT:  Thank you very much.  Please have a seat.
Mark, thank you for that introduction.  I thought he was going to talk about my gray hair.  (Laughter.)  It is true that my daughters are gorgeous.  (Laughter.)  That's because my wife is gorgeous.  (Applause.)  And my goal is to improve my gene pool.

lecrae-2012-press_3.jpg
Lecrae was recently interviewed by Richard Clark, Editor-In-Chief of Christ and Pop Culture, and answered three standout questions.
As previously shared on ChristCultureNews.com, fans (or perhaps foes) seem to consistently search the Webs for info on whether the rapper drinks, cuss, smokes weed, etc. (see the pic below).
Unfortunately, Clark didn't ask Lecrae if he smokes weed, but he did touch on the cussing part.
Because of that Christian part of your audience, do you ever feel like there's

4798Despite the Martin Luther King, Jr. holiday, many of us were too busy seeing patients to hear President Obama's second inaugural address. It was less painful to read the transcript.
"What binds this nation together is not the color of our skin or the tenets of our faith or the origins of our names," he stated. Then let's end the government's obsession with African-Americans, Hispanic-Americans, and Asian-Americans (but never European-Americans). We are all Americans. I feel some moral authorit

Davon White,( AKA Dee Black), has overcome many obstacles that artists face in the music industry.  Growing up in Baltimore City, his journey of music began at the age of 16,  and was influenced by the fame and success of close friends that were in the rap industry.  It was the foundation of past experiences that eventually led him in 2002, to turn down a major label deal.  His music is a mix of hip hop, R&B, and gospel, and has been categorized as “life” music.  Promoting more of the positivi

The first Samsung Galaxy Note device was launched back in 2011 and ever since then the range of phones has proved to be a huge success with consumers despite at first there being some reservations regarding the large screen size. We saw the Samsung Galaxy Note 2 launched last year and it seems that we will soon see another such model in the form of the Galaxy Note 8.0.

It seems that the Galaxy Note 8.0 will be the bigger sibling of the Samsung Galaxy Note 2 and the name of the new device sugge

Marvin Winans Jr. as Donte Dreams. (Luke Hartley)
It's difficult to keep a dream alive while surrounded by the harsh realities of life. Still, there are those who rather than being defeated by hardships, find strength.
This is the message of "Dreams," a movie directed by Joel Kapity and produced by native Detroiter Marvin Winans Jr. Set outside of Chicago, the yet-unrated film tackles tough issues -- rape, incest and broken families who are working to reunite and repair their damaged lives.

When President Barack Obama addressed the nation the day 20 children were killed in Newtown, Connecticut, he told the nation "that we are praying for them."
The moment "Good Morning America" anchor Robin Roberts announced she had to undergo a bone marrow transplant, many prayers were directed her way.
So why is it that sports fans are upset and bothered that Baltimore Ravens linebacker Ray Lewis consistently invokes God and Jesus, and recites Bible scriptures?
We saw a lot of

4798In America, we share a dream that lies at the heart of our founding: that no matter who you are, no matter what you look like, no matter how modest your beginnings or the circumstances of your birth, you can make it if you try. Yet, for many and for much of our Nation's history, that dream has gone unfulfilled. For African Americans, it was a dream denied until 150 years ago, when a great emancipator called for the end of slavery. It was a dream deferred less than 50 years ago, when a preacher

Ray Lewis will ride into retirement as a champion.
Baltimore's standout middle linebacker began his final night on the football field with a motivational speech to his teammates. He ended it looking upward into a shower of silver streamers and purple confetti after the Ravens beat the San Francisco 49ers 34-31 Sunday night to win the Super Bowl.
Standing tall in the middle of a defense that survived a frenzied comeback by Colin Kaepernick and the 49ers, Lewis put a lovely bow on his 17th NFL s

yahoo_flaccosbxlvii.jpgA power outage at the Super Bowl put the nation's biggest sporting event on hold for more than a half-hour Sunday, interrupting an otherwise electric, back-and-forth game that ended with Joe Flacco and the Baltimore Ravens as NFL champions thanks to a 34-31 victory over the San Francisco 49ers.
Flacco, voted the MVP, threw three first-half touchdown passes to cap an 11-TD, zero-interception postseason. Jacoby Jones returned the second-half kickoff 108 yards, a Super Bowl record, to give Balti
