We open with the funniest chaos of the week: Captain Durag. Black Twitter detonated over a Disney Jr. character with a durag and a dream. The creator — allegedly a Black woman — instantly got labeled a tether by the FBA crowd. Boule Twitter went straight to the playbook: digging up old tweets, calling her a coon, and running the usual “we’re upset” tricks.

So what is it: representation or cooning.

Next up, Grandma hopped on the mic during a Black History Month event at the White House and told folks to back up off Trump and let him cook. The comments were wild — white women saying she moved them to tears. First Nicki, now Mom Mom. Sisters showing Trump love is becoming a plot twist nobody expected.

Then we get to Vlad. On Valentine’s Day — when he should’ve been somewhere in some yams — he fires off a “satire” tweet claiming he’s exposing Roc Nation secrets. Fourteen million views later, the internet is in a frenzy, and Vlad is suddenly cop‑plea‑adjacent.

Some say it was just trolling. Others — like Unc with the Kufi strapped tight — think it was a strategic distraction to take heat off Roc Nation.

We close with some fantasy‑fight energy: Floyd vs Tyson, Ronda Rousey vs Gina Carano, and a moment of respect for RIP Jesse Jackson, marking the end of an era.

The Hoteps hit a major milestone this week, celebrating 400 episodes and looking back at the wildest, funniest, and most legendary moments from their journey. From early chaos to cultural dominance, Unc and HJ take a well‑earned victory lap through Hotep history.

Then it’s time for the long‑awaited official HBTY review of J. Cole’s The Fall Off. Enough time has passed — what’s the final verdict. Unc stamps it as mid and not for him. Was it good, great, HBCU‑boule rap, or just clean boom‑bap cosplay. The room breaks it all down, including Cole’s strange post‑release marketing run — genius or performative.

Meanwhile, Sexy Red has officially violated the peace treaty with Hotepistan. Two weeks into Black History Month, she drops a remake of Michael Jackson’s “Beat It” called “Eat It.” HJ gave her a pass… Unc wants her deported back to St. Louis.

The timeline also serves up some premium elder chaos: Ja Rule, Tony Yayo, and Uncle Murda allegedly reignite 20‑year‑old beef on a first‑class flight. Black Twitter immediately asks the only question that matters — who won. Ja for causing a scene, or G‑Unit for making him catch a different flight.

And finally, sports talk gets spicy as Nick Wright proposes the most unhinged — yet undeniably entertaining — idea to save NBA All‑Star Weekend: Whites vs Blacks. A racial Hunger Games on hardwood. Families glued to the TV. Adam Silver… do the right thing.

Shawn Carter’s name hits the Epstein files and the internet loses its mind. Unc gets the iso he’s been waiting for as the Jay‑Z discourse turns into a full‑blown Hov Hate Super Bowl — theories, half‑truths, cap, and back‑kicking from every direction.

Then the timeline serves up something even crazier: a white man (allegedly) builds a website to help people “avoid Black folks” by showing how many are in your area. The coon in Unc thinks it’s genius. The real one in him thinks the same. A digital sundown town in 2026 — you can’t make this up.

Super Bowl Sunday is here, but the game ain’t giving the juice it should. The real entertainment is coming after Bad Bunny’s halftime show when the backlash, thinkpieces, and tears start flowing. Predictions fly, and the crew breaks down the elite foods you must have on deck for the big day.

Meanwhile, Kid Rock is throwing what can only be described as the Coon Halftime Show, and the question is simple: are you tuning in out of curiosity or self‑respect.

Shaboozy talks heavy, then apologizes, and FBA plus Tariq jump all over him. Another day, another cultural scuffle.
