Bizzle, a self-identified Christian rapper, was not too satisfied with Rick Ross and Jay-Z’s recent ‘Free Mason’ song — a track off Ross’ ‘Teflon Don’ that strove to address the many accusations that both are involved in Illuminati and free mason secret societies.

From TheBoomBox.com:

In a new diss track, Bizzle hops on Nas’ ‘Ether’ beat. He mimics Jay-Z’s flow and lyrics on ‘Free Mason’ and goes on the offensive.

“They talk about the ‘Free Mason’ record and they sayin’ Jay denied it,” Bizzle raps. “But what did he deny because to me it sounded like this/ Rumors of Lucifer/ A devil I’m, not though/ But if you listen I said he wasn’t the devil on my song/ He didn’t say he ain’t no mason/ He said he never said it/ Put the devil on you/ Ain’t nobody make you wear that sweater.”

People seem to think that President Obama’s remarks regarding a Mosque beeing built near ground zero is unacceptable.

In President Obama’s speech yesterday, he gave an honest answer on whether or not a Mosque should be built near ground zero. The site where the Mosque is causing contreversy is an old abandoned Burlington Coat Factory.

Many people, especially Right Wing conservatives are using this as ammunition against the President whom we hope will be re-elected for another term. The issue appears to be that Muslims i.e. Al Queda were allegedly responsible for the 9/11 attacks, therefore it would be wrong to let Muslims practice their religion near Grond Zero. Here is the Presidents response regarding the Mosque possibly beeing put near Ground Zero.“As a citizen, and as president, I believe that Muslims have the . . . right to build a place of worship and a community center on private property in Lower Manhattan, in accordance with local laws and ordinances.” I agree with our President. What do you think?

Legs covered in skin-toned stockings, her skirt crisp to the knee, Patty Davis slips on the black heels she has shined for the day.

“Got to look good in the Lord’s house,” she says as she spritzes her neck with White Diamonds perfume and exits her black Lincoln Town Car.

Davis, 46, of Union City, Georgia, has attended African Methodist Episcopal churches since before she could crawl. She sits proudly in the pew every Sunday for service and is among the first to arrive for bible study each Wednesday.

She moves swiftly, with confidence, a weathered Bible clutched in her right hand, the day’s passages dog-eared and highlighted. She’s the type of woman who can recite scriptures with ease, her love of faith evident in her speech.

“Every day is a blessed day for me,” she says. “Jesus is the No. 1 man in my life and any man who wants me must seek me through Him.”

The unmarried Georgia native is a committed follower of the Christian faith, striving to live and breathe the gospel in her daily life. Yet, according to relationship advice columnist Deborrah Cooper, it is this devout style of belief and attachment to the black church that is keeping black women like Davis — single and lonely.
