Have you ever felt the weight of expectations pressing down on you, dictating who you should be? Jamar and I peel back the layers on this very topic as we confront the complex issues of Black stereotypes and identity in our latest episode. We're not holding back as we lay bare the struggles of those who don't quite fit the traditional mold of what it means to be Black. From the bullying and gatekeeping endured by individuals who defy cultural norms to the intricate dance of moving in predominantly white spaces, our dialogue is raw and real. We share our personal journeys and the broader societal observations that call for an inclusive understanding of Blackness, far removed from the shackles of aggression, poverty, or any other stereotype.
Our candid conversation doesn't stop at identifying the problems; it's about shattering them. In this heart-to-heart, I confess my passion for white water rafting—a love that doesn't fit the stereotype—and express my own insecurities, such as not being the 'handy' man society often expects. Together with Jamar, we challenge the idea that Black identity is a one-size-fits-all label. It's a call to action to break free from generational curses and to embrace the rich tapestry of individual experiences that define who we are. We extend an invitation to you, our listeners, to join us in this important conversation, to reflect on personal biases, and to cultivate a space where diversity in thought and experience isn't just celebrated—it's the norm.

Intro Lyrics
It’s Medium Ghetto
Intelligent, hood conversations, so why don’t come hang with the gang
Relatable topics, form coming up broke to the nonsense that all come along with these dames
From trust funds to trappin’, we cover it all, and with laughter
So, why don’t you come grab you a seat
From o’s to Othello, you know that we Medium Ghetto, and nothing can even compete
Outro Lyrics
It’s Medium Ghetto
And we thank y...
