Why It Appears That Women Are Taking Over Everything

Who Defined “Jewish”? The Deeper Battle Over Identity and Divine Authority By: Michael Taylor | ThaWilsonBlock Magazine In today’s world of rewritten truths and rebranded identities, few topics are more misunderstood—or more manipulated—than the question: Who is a Jew? For centuries, institutions, cultures, and religious authorities have claimed the right to define Jewishness. But beneath the noise of tradition and politics lies a deeper issue—a spiritual one. Because the question isn't just how “Jewish” is defined. The real question is: Who or what has the authority to define it in the first place? --- The Origin of the Covenant When we go back to the beginning, the answer is simple and undeniable. The Most High—YHWH—established a covenant with Abraham, reaffirmed it through Isaac, and fulfilled it through Jacob, who was renamed Israel. The covenant was not based on culture or customs.

Brother Ali Announces “Secrets & Escapes Tour” Dates

Brother Ali announces his “Secrets & Escapes Tour” which launches in February 2020, making 30+ stops across the U.S. with support from Open Mike Eagle and DJ Last Word. The tour is inspired by the title of Brother Ali’s new album, Secrets & Escapes, which was dropped as a surprise to fans last month, and was produced entirely by label mate Evidence. General admission tickets are on sale now, and a limited number of VIP tickets are available for each date.

Secrets & Escapes is a compendium of Brother Ali’s time spent with Evidence, over the course of three trips to California, recording in a Venice garage with no regard for pleasing the internet or competing with the music industry. Evidence chopped up records on old-school samplers and ran them through a compressor (2 track) so they couldn’t be re-arranged or mixed. Brother Ali sat with the mic and spit rhymes as they came to him, without writing or organizing them into songs. Ev smoked a lot of weed, Ali prayed extensively, and their influences on each other can be heard in the recordings. Any time they made something that reminded them of what they’ve become known for, they threw it away and started something new. Talib KweliPharoahe Monch and CS Armstrong came through to bless the project with contributions, too.

Secrets & Escapes is the result of two friends making rap music for no other reason than because it’s what they love to do.
