Dr. Umar sat with Mouse Jones and discussed a vast array of topics, one being the effects of Hip-Hop on Black America and whether or not we have benefited from it as a whole. Mouse Jones' response seemed disjointed and inadequate to not fault of his own. He was asked on the spot and had not time…

-
STREAMS ep. 33 'Do it Scared'
Will Smith said if you can't overcome the fear then just "do it scared". I loved that saying so much, I committed it to memory. Sometimes I repeat that to myself and I've used it to help my children through scary situations.

STREAMS ep. 32 'Luck, Blessings or Intention'
Are our paths chosen for us? Is destiny real? Is it luck? Or is it simply Intentions begets intentional results?
-

-
STREAMS ep. 26 'Different World'
The world today doesn't FEEL the way the world felt when I was growing up. What changed?
-
STREAMS ep. 25 - “Fame over Substance”
Rappers of the modern era all seem to value fame over actual connections with their fanbases or substance in their art. Why is that? why are the sales in hip hop down 40%? Is it because of the economy or is it because of the massive failure of today's artist to aim for timelessness in their music?
-

STREAMS ep. 21 "realism in rap"
From the early days of rap, to now, where we over-glorify street culture and rat on ourselves on nationally syndicated radio stations. smh. How did we get here? (sorry for the late publish for anyone who may have been looking for it. I scheduled the release of this audio episode and came back to...
-
STREAMS ep. 18 'i'm a leader too'
I don’t believe that the only way to lead a nation or a community is through radicalism or strictly militant methods. Sometimes subtlety is just as effective as an overarching display of protest. Raising our families properly as black men and women is just as effective and just as positive for…

STREAMS ep. 17 "oversaturation of the arts"
There are many of us practicing expression in many different fields. Music, Painting, Podcasts, etc. It's hard to cut through all of the noise but my philosophy is that the noise is what gives value to the masterpieces. For every one great work of work there are dozens of others that aren't so...
-
Streams ep. 15 "change your heroes"
As a community, black people's priorities have long been misplaced. We worship things that are detrimental to us and talk down about upstanding men and women and label them as "corny". We must change our heroes.
-
STREAMS ep. 14 "the quality of our service to others"
"The quality of our service to others determines the kind of life you'll live" was a quote given to me by my father. I don't know it's origins, but it inspired me nonetheless. All of our contributions to the world, big and small, lend to the kind of "karma" we might have....

STREAMS ep. 13 'why is life worth living?"
Moment of silence for the foreword: Less than 24 hours after recording this episode I had a pretty realistic dream. In the dream I watched my first born son die in my arms. I have an idea of what might've caused the dream but I'm not sure. This dream almost served as an answer or a direct…

STREAMS ep. 12 "do for self"
More things are in our control than we think there are. The reality is we have the ability to change a lot of our circumstances but we simply choose not to. That's something I had to learn over time and take risks to try. Change and improving our circumstances is not always easy, but is sometimes...

STREAMS ep. 11 “the no days off mentality is dumb”
I’ve heard the mantra “no days off” and “I’ll sleep when I’m dead” all my life. After working many hours in my day, losing loved ones without saying goodbye and missing out on key moments in my loved ones lives, I whole heartedly disagree with both of those sayings. There is not achievement in…

STREAMs ep. 10 "parenthood"
Raising kids is the hardest thing I've ever done and probably ever will do. The amount of sacrificing that it requires on a daily basis is something that nothing else in life has ever required of me. It has tested all of my limits, mentally, spiritually and emotionally. The important part is that…

STREAMS ep. 9 "time and the poverty mindset"
When you're in survival mode you view money as less than a tool to simplify your life and more like an ever-elusive resource that is to blame for all of our problems. Sometimes peace is more expensive. In my personal experience, I changed barbershops at the cost of more expensive service only to...

STREAMS ep. 5 "choosing partners & cheating"
Low self esteem leads a lot of us to poor relationships with others because of the poor relationship we have with ourselves. Sometimes we subconsciously seek reiterations of past traumas because we are addicted to the feelings it invokes in us or we believe it is all we deserve. We suffer...

STREAMS ep. 4 "overly masculine men"
Some of us have been taught incorrectly what defines us as men. It stifles our growth and it narrows our perspective so much so that it hinders us in our development. Learn to challenge your ideas and comforts in the name of being fluid in your application. Streams is what I call a 'solocast'...
-
STREAMS ep. 3 "can money buy happiness?"
Can money buy YOUR happiness? It's really up to our own personal philosophies and perspectives. I'm sure money would solve lots of peoples' problems, but for many others money is not necessarily the solution because their battles are more internal than anything. Listen to my perspective and give...
-
STREAMS ep. 2 "your ideas are good enough"
"Your ideas are good enough" is self explanatory. We often times doubt that our ideas can be executed or that the idea itself is worthy of exploring.
