I agree with you on many of ya points. There are too many grown ass men who think keepin it real is dressing like a thug and not talkin with proper English. Yeah, his money and long and ppl are gonna respect that but when ur making power moves like that ur representin all blacks in their eyes. Look at ppl like Will Smith, Jay-Z, LL, TI, and Luda who’ve grown up in the hood and know when it’s required to adjust to their enviroment. Grow up and stop using ya upbringing as a crutch.

You have a point Juan, however, we live in a society where we feel the need to find fault with everyone and everything. Could he be more polished..perhaps, are we asking that he act more white as to come across less intimidating. He’s trying to help his community the only way he knows how, with sincerity. Personally, I refuse to knock the guy, he’s been a good example to his son Romeo. The kids in college, doing well in school, and playing Basketball.

Yeah he may not dress appropriate at times or speak as well as the next man, but I think that what makes him a real person who’s trying to do something for a community.I applaud him for standing up I’m pretty sure he knows he’s not the most polished guy in a room full of suit and ties but its his message is what he’s tryin to get across not how he looks while he’s speaking!! As for the kids if you put Roland Martin,Master P,or Tavis Smiley in front of them who do you think they would listen to and identify more with??

[...] this morning, I was reluctantly criticizing Master P. for his lack of sophistication with his philanthropic game. Although he’s a mess I did [...]

I’m going to try and touch base and see what’s good. I feel horrible criticizing the guy but…

Ever try reaching out to him? Let him know what’s good?

I’m with you on polishing his appearance. I’m also feeling he needs to grow up a little in terms of his wardrobe. But who am I to talk about age appropriate gear?

Exactly…that’s the unfortunate part about the whole thing. He’s needed but its embarrassing.

All I can say on that although there are many that are more qualifed than Miller is. BUT HE IS THE ONLY ONE STEPPING UP.
