Michael B Jordan wins an Oscar; Lori Harvey is where she wants to be; Ava DuVernay debuts her “honey”; The Male Loneliness Movement co-opts MBJ; Teyana Taylor is criticized for being too… happy?; Matthew Knowles is a bitter old man; "Blue Therapy" on Netflix is hot trash (that I could not stop watching); Jamal Bryant is not who he thinks he is.
