You don't know about struggles, if you can't relate to:

P.S. 111 at free lunch, embarrassed but managed to get a plate
We was kids hungry, Mom's working I was famished, she getting home late

Here's the first trailer for Fox Searchlight's Black Nativity, directed by Kasi Lemmons, which is set for a November 27, 2013 release.

The story centers on a young black teen from Baltimore, who is sent to Harlem by his mother to spend the Christmas holiday with his estranged grandparents. The boy then learns the real meaning of faith and family when his grandfather delivers a Christmas Eve sermon and "a stylized, dream-sequence retelling of the classic Nativity story."

The film stars Jacob Latimore, Forest Whitaker, Angela Bassett, and Jennifer Hudson, in a work that's based on Langston Hughes' Broadway gospel musical.

Mary J. Blige, Tyrese Gibson, Luke James, and Nas round out the cast.

Terence Blanchard is the film score's composer, while Raphael Saadiq wrote music for it.

I think he's in it for a little bit but you can see him in the trailer

So Sincere came back from Africa older and wiser to impart knowledge upon today's young black youth:wow:

I still remember the very first time I heard this. This album came out on my bday last year. Bought the cd threw it on in my car, once I heard the piano and violins I was :lupe: , then I heard the first few bars :obama: then :blessed: inside the car. I love that intro. Good sample to kick off the album with.
