Charlamagne Tha God Explains Why More Black Men Are Supporting Donald Trump

People called Kanye West crazy when he put his full support behind President Donald Trump, but there has been an uptick in Black men who endorse the controversial world leader. We recently watched as 50 Cent publicly endorsed the President after looking at a news report of former Vice President Joe Biden’s tax plan, and Waka Flocka suggested that Trump is a better president than Barack Obama. Charlamagne Tha God recently sat down with Fox Business’s Lisa Kennedy Montogomery and spoke about the surge in Black men standing behind the President, saying that by “reaching out and advertising directly to young Black male voters, yeah, it’s effective because we don’t get courted.”

“When it comes to Black people you see who maybe are showing support for Trump, I think it’s because Trump is actually talking to young Black male voters,” Charlamagne said. “He’s directing ads toward them. They are a group that never get courted… Black people don’t get courted either as a whole. But that old Democratic regime speaks to old Black men and they think everybody else in the Black community and Black families are going to fall in line.”

 

Charlamagne did add that even though he believes that to be true, he can’t side with Fif on this one. “It doesn’t change the way that I feel, because unlike 50 Cent, I can’t pick racism and bigotry and fascism,” he added. “I can’t choose that over my finances. My finances might just have to take a hit. We got to get that fascism out of the White House. I’m not mad at 50, honestly, 50 just said out loud what a lot of people were thinking. When I saw that, I thought that. I didn’t think I would vote for Trump, but I was like, Jesus Christ, I live in New Jersey and work in New York. I’m getting hit in both states.”

The Real Mack The Knife honors memory and spirit with soulful release “Rio Grande de Loíza”

The Real Mack The Knife

The song “Rio Grande de Loíza” by The Real Mack The Knife is a powerful tribute to Puerto Rico’s history, memory, and sacred spirit. The track transforms nature into something spiritual, intimate, and timeless, inspired by the legendary river and Julia de Burgos’ immortal voice.

The song “Rio Grande de Loíza” has an old, alive vibe from the beginning. River water, moonlight, desire, and cultural memory shape a song that seems to rise from the ground. The Real Mack The Knife uses the river as a living, symbolic being, unlike the original work.

Julia de Burgos gives the piece incredible depth. She sees the river as a witness, a mother, a wound, a mirror, and a prayer throughout the song’s emotional landscape. The literary and spiritual connection gives the track a haunting beauty beyond music.

The Illumin8tives

With “Portland,” Devan Ibiza creates a warm, thoughtful, atmospheric hip-hop record rooted in boom-bap’s deep, reflective energy. Soulful production and introspective mood make it a quiet moment of thought rather than a distraction.

“Portland” embodies classic hip-hop. Boom-bap gives it a rhythmic foundation, and warm, soulful production draws listeners in. This beat is perfect for contemplation, letting emotion and thought flow.

The single’s mood adds interest. Devan Ibiza values subtlety and atmosphere over loudness and trends. The song’s restraint is its strength. Late-night thoughts, personal memories, and quiet realizations make “Portland” contemplative.

Devan Ibiza’s release is well-paced emotionally. Since the song is never rushed or crowded, its atmosphere can naturally resonate. That patience gives “Portland” a timeless quality usually reserved for classic hip-hop stories and soulful underground records.
