Today, we celebrate what would have been the 86th birthday of Idris Muhammad, a wonderful drummer who played professionally since he was 16 years old. I had the honor of playing with him many times... Including on the album you see here.

At 16, Brian Banks was one of the best high school linebackers in America. USC had offered him a full scholarship. Pete Carroll personally called him.
One afternoon at school he made out with a classmate. Consensual. By the end of the day he was in jail, charged with kidnapping and rape.
She said he dragged her into a stairwell. It never happened.
The DNA came back negative. His mother sold her house and her car to pay for a lawyer.
He couldn’t make bail. He spent a year behind bars waiting for trial.
His lawyer told him: plead no contest, or risk 41 years in prison. He was 17. He took the deal.
He did 5 years in prison. Then 5 more on parole. Registered sex offender. GPS monitor on his ankle. Couldn’t go near schools or parks. No one would hire him.
Meanwhile, the girl and her mother sued the school district for not keeping her safe. They won $1.5 million.
In 2011, a Facebook friend request popped up on his screen.
It was her.
She wanted to “let bygones be bygones.”
Brian went to a private investigator. They hid cameras in the office and invited her to talk. She came by bus.
On tape, she admitted it. He never raped her. He never kidnapped her.
Then she said she still wouldn’t tell prosecutors the truth. Because she’d have to give back the money.
In May 2012, a judge cleared his name. The hearing took less than a minute.
10 years of his life. Gone in one lie. Erased in 60 seconds.
A few days later his phone rang. “I’m looking for a linebacker. You know where I can find one?”
It was Pete Carroll. The same coach who recruited him 10 years earlier.
He finally signed with the NFL’s Atlanta Falcons. At 27. The dream he had at 16.
She was ordered to pay $2.6 million back.
What should happen to someone who steals 10 years of your life with one lie?

2 Chainz got into a DEBATE with Keith Lee after bringing up the BAD REVIEW Keith gave his restaurant, with Keith arguing that his reviews should reflect how REGULAR CUSTOMERS are treated, while 2 Chainz insisted celebrities EARN special treatment 😳👀
2 Chainz also questioned whether Keith’s strict diet as a former athlete affects his TASTE in food and how he judges restaurants.
“I’m an entertainer, and obviously we get perks that other people don’t get. That’s just period, my boy. I don’t stand in line at the airport. I don’t do none of that because I done worked my ass off to do this.”

92年ルイジアナに高校留学中、ハロウィンパーティに出かけて間違った家を訪れただけで家主に射殺された服部剛丈(よしひろ)さんの事件、当時一緒にいたホストファミリーの息子のウェブさんが2022年に46歳で自死されていたこと初めて知った。家族の話ではサバイバーズギルトに長年苛まれていた。事件当夜
Yoshihiro Hattori was a 16-year-old Japanese exchange student living in the United States.
On the night of October 31, 1992, he and his American friend were dressed in costumes to attend a Halloween party in the Baton Rouge area. Due to a mix-up with the address, they rang the doorbell at the wrong house.
The homeowner, startled to see two people in costumes on her dark porch, called her husband. He came out armed with a revolver and shouted at the young man not to move (“Freeze!”). Hattori, who didn’t speak English very well and thought it was a joke or part of the party, smiled, said, “We’re here for the party!” and kept walking toward him. The homeowner shot him point-blank in the chest.
The young man died in the ambulance, marking one of the most tragic and shocking real-life Halloween incidents on an international scale

Last year, when Black Revolutionary elder Jamil Al-Amin died, NOLA native Cierra Chernier noticed the lack of coverage or commemoration offered by the Louisiana press given Al-Amin was born and raised in Baton Rouge. She’s here to correct the record.

A Converse ad shows a woman wearing white attire lit to form what looks like a KKK hood.
Sneakers dangling beside her, read by many as lynching imagery.
This wasn’t hidden. It was styled, lit, and approved by a creative team.
Someone signed off on this.
Converse says sorry. The image was still up hours later.
An apology doesn’t undo what got past legal, marketing, and leadership at every step.
We keep having this conversation because corporations keep failing the same test.
Do better means catching this before it airs — not after we’re offended.
