Jason Weaver, known for his unforgettable role as Ernest in the iconic 2002 film Drumline, just hit a new milestone! 🥁

Weaver has officially been inducted as an honorary member of Kappa Kappa Psi National Honorary Band Fraternity, a perfect full-circle moment for both Weaver and the HBCU community, in which Drumline is an all-time classic film.

If you remember, Ernest was one of Devon Miles’s closest friends in Atlanta A&T’s marching band and famously joined Kappa Kappa Psi at the film’s end. Now, years later, Weaver joins the real-life ranks of this prestigious fraternity. 👏🏾

Four years after graduating at the top of their middle school class, triplets Aaron, Brandon, and Christopher Williams-Orr have now crushed high school — and they’re headed to the next level together.

This fall, all three will attend the University of Illinois, each pursuing their own academic goals, but staying united in purpose and brotherhood.

“We won’t leave each other behind. We’re all at the next level together,” Brandon shared — echoing the same bond they’ve had for years.

Back then, they said it best:

“We always have someone to talk to. Whether it’s homework, sports, or life — we teach each other, support each other, and show up for one another.”

Talk about strength, unity, and excellence. ✊🏽📚

Baltimore, MD — Hip-Hop legend Rakim received the George Peabody Medal from Johns Hopkins University’s Peabody Institute, becoming the first rapper ever to earn the conservatory’s highest honor.

The award, presented during Peabody’s 143rd graduation ceremonies, recognizes Rakim’s groundbreaking contributions to music and culture. He also addressed graduates, reflecting on hip-hop’s journey from the streets to prestigious institutions.

“To see this culture embraced in a place like this means everything — for me and future generations,” Rakim said.

The honor comes as Peabody launches a new Bachelor of Music program in Hip-Hop, marking a major milestone for the genre in academic music education.

While separate from the university’s 2025 honorary degrees, Rakim’s recognition highlights the growing respect for Hip-Hop’s cultural and artistic legacy.✨

I came across this post the other day.

Made me wonder… do y’all think this is true?

Here’s some context:
• Psychologists have studied teasing in friendships for years. Research shows that playful teasing is more common among close friends and can actually strengthen bonds.
• A 2015 study found that when teasing comes from someone you’re close to, it’s interpreted as more positive and well-intentioned.
• More recent reviews (2024–2025) highlight that playful teasing is linked with trust and closeness, while harmful teasing often targets sensitive traits and creates distance.

So while the viral “300% more honest” claim might be a stretch, there’s real science showing that when it’s done with respect and care, roasting between friends can build connection.

What do you think — does playful roasting make friendships stronger, or can it cross the line too easily?

When 5-year-old Michael Clark Jr. was officially adopted, he wanted his entire kindergarten class to be there for the big moment.

And they all showed up — cheering him on, holding paper hearts, and filling the courtroom with love and support. ❤️

A powerful reminder that community and belonging matter at every age.

These men are part of and came together for their annual Back to Books initiative.

This year, YES Prep Southside expressed a significant need for backpacks and school supplies. District guidelines required that all 75 backpacks be either clear or mesh, so they made sure every single one met the standard—and filled them with supplies to support families who need the extra help.

“Last night, we packed each bag with care. On Monday, they’ll be delivered to our partner school so students can start the year prepared and confident. It may look simple, but for a student walking into class with dignity and the tools to succeed—it’s an investment in their future.”

Big shoutout to the brothers who rolled up their sleeves and put in the work. Leadership isn’t just about titles or being in the spotlight—it’s about doing the work that strengthens the next generation.

In a world full of noise, the greatest impact comes when we focus on meeting real needs and uplifting real people.

For those unfamiliar, is the young professional auxiliary of the 100 Black Men of America, Inc. They are committed to mentorship, education, and community service—helping to build the next generation of leaders.

The Weeknd has set another record in music history. 🎶

He became the first artist ever to have two songs on Spotify surpass 3 billion streams — Blinding Lights and Starboy.

This milestone cements his status as one of the most successful artists of our time, continuing to push boundaries and dominate global charts.

Our Story

It began with a question... Where can I find black role models?

I didn’t have an answer. In fact, instead of an answer, I ran into more questions: Where can I find positive black news? Why don't I feel inspired after scrolling through social media? Where can I find black success stories of non-athletes and entertainers? As I delved deeper It came to me.......

Black Success Today was created to INSPIRE, UPLIFT, and EDUCATE Black people through positive black news. Black people around the world are doing great things every day, and we help share their stories.

"Our people perish from lack of knowledge". Together I believe we can help save our people.
