🕊️ A Reality Moment for Hip Hop.....

Was this healing… the end of an era of senseless fued inordinately fed to the demise of the world's finest...or just a moment in time?

At the 1999 MTV Video Music Awards, something happened that still echoes through hip-hop history. Standing at the Metropolitan Opera House in New York City, Will Smith introduced two women the world never expected to see together on one stage:

Afeni Shakur, mother of Tupac Shakur and Voletta Wallace, mother of The Notorious B.I.G. 🇺🇸🎤

They appeared together to present Best Rap Video—but the moment became far bigger than an award.

The two mothers embraced.
They spoke about protecting their sons’ legacies.
Many saw it as a public signal that the East Coast–West Coast war was over.

But fans still debate it today…

Was this true closure, led by mothers who lost everything?
Or was it a symbolic TV moment, powerful—but not enough to heal hip-hop’s wounds?
Did it change the culture… or simply pause it?

👇🏽 What do YOU think?

Who Killed Alfred Rewane?

Who killed a good Man? This was the song and question the warri and Itshekiri people were asking the government in Lagos and all over Nigeria when Alfred Rewane was assassinated in his residence in Oduduwa crescent Ikeja GRA, Lagos in 1995..

It was on Friday, 6 October, 1995, between 8.15 and 8.30 am, that the unexpected happened. A Peugeot 504 car screeched to a halt in front of 100 Oduduwa Crescent, G.R.A, Ikeja, Lagos, home of Pa Alfred Rewane.

Like killers belonging to the Sicilian Cosa Nostra, five men alighted from the belly of the car. They approached the sentry, telling him that they had come to see the landlord, to deliver an important message from Life Flour Mills, Sapele. Pa Rewane is the owner of the company. They shoved a document to the gate man's face. Pronto, he creaked the gate open on its greased hinges. The men entered.

A domestic staffer was on his way upstairs to inform Chief that he had some guests. Two of the men clambered upstairs with the aide. The others had held two of the Chief's daughters hostage while the others were busy upstairs with the landlord. The assailants pumped bullets into the body of the innocent old man. He died.

Rewane's full name at birth was Ogbeyiwa Erewarone, he was born in Warri to the family of Jemide Erewarone. His father was a trader who was based in Agbor when his father was away from Warri Rewane stayed with his uncle who was religious at the time and it was he who gave Rewane the first name Alfred.

He was educated at the African School and then the Government School, both in Warri. Though he was admitted to Dennis Memorial Grammar School for secondary school education, Rewane did not proceed further in his education. He started his career as a manager trainee with UAC and became the beach master, Lagos Customs Wharf for the firm.

I'm saying it boldly MTN is a scam.
You click customer.care on their app and they tell you that you sent a wrong request.
I don't blame them but our toothless NCC, in like manner as virtually every other Nigerian parastatal. Anyone can just wade into the country and shovel s**t to the fan and nothing happens.
Shame!!
