Michael Blackson is prospering because he always represents the continent. Unlike other Africans in the diaspora, Michael never changed his identity no matter how unpopular it used to be. The man loves the continent genuinely and that's why God would continue to bless him abundantly. Love

The thing is that they go to school not for real education but to be disciplined so they can be the best slave labor for America and Europe and they will leave their homes and family members and go to other countries that are using their own country for wealth and white people are trying to become the new original of Africa population, and own the best country in the world,in those schools they are learning English language so they can make money in America and Europe and they are learning French, people are blind to this fact

if u knew how much it cost to build a school over there, vs over here, you would probably build one as well. thats why oprah built one over there, as opposed to in america. its way cheaper and streamlined. building a school for poor americans means youll have to put in more work and resources.

It's amazing to see how his background and experiences have shaped his comedy and allowed him to connect with people from all walks of life. N.O.R.E. and DJ EFN are the perfect hosts for this hilarious and insightful conversation. Cheers to another great episode of Drink Champs!
