Release Therapy

Ebony magazine has decided to pull Ludacris from the June cover of "The New Black Fathers" issue and have replaced him with actor Boris Kodjoe. The decision comes at the heels of the Don Imus fueld controversy over misogynistic lyrics in hip hop.

"Something has changed in America in the last few weeks," said Bryan Monroe, editorial director of Ebony and Jet magazines. "I think the media is being called to account in these areas."

Monroe also adds that there is an opportunity to "transfer the conversation around language, race, inclusiveness and diversity." (source) I am praying for Titty Boi and the rest of the DTP family to come out of this rough patch unscathed. Amen.
