I ain't trying to be Donkey of the Day no more.

They should be embarrassed by what they already did. I'm not making these people do these things. They called Donkey of the Day and it really caught me off guard. Damn, Solomon. Who got the Donkey of the Day today? Well, just hilarious. Donkey of the Day for Monday, February 5th goes to the LAPD, who decided they needed to detain and then arrest my good brother Michael Renda,

a.k.a. Killer Mike. Drop on a clue bomb for Killer Mike. You know, we've been celebrating the good brother Killer Mike all morning because last night he swept the Grammys. He won all three categories. He was nominated in Best Rap Performance, Best Rap Song, and Best Rap Album. He won all three. Drop on a clue Bomb for Mike again.

To all you naysayers out there, don't tell me Killer Mike shouldn't have won Rap Album of the Year if you didn't listen to Michael. Because I've been telling y'all for months that he should win a Grammy for Rap Album of the Year. And he did that. But then we heard the news that he was detained and booked for battery just hours after winning three awards. Let's go to WSB TV Channel 2 Atlanta for the report, please. Police detained rapper and Atlanta native Killer Mike in the middle of the Grammy three awards. Let's go to WSB TV Channel 2 Atlanta for the report, please. Police detained rapper and Atlanta native Killer Mike in the middle of the Grammy Awards show. It came moments after he

swept all three rap categories. His first Grammy win in more than two decades. Details on exactly what happened are still limited, but videos spreading online shows Killer Mike being escorted out of the arena in handcuffs. The AP is reporting a police spokesperson said it stemmed from an altercation

inside that arena around 4 p.m. local time. In a text to our partners at the Atlanta Journal Constitution, he said it was quote, an overzealous security guard, but I am good. A source told Channel 2 that he did confirm that he was held, but has since been

released. Now all you Negroes out there who be wearing tinfoil poosh icy mask all you folks will be on youtube with every single conspiracy theory under the sun where is the conspiracy theories about this you can't tell me this is not a conspiracy i don't know what the conspiracy is yet but the fact that killer mike swept the grammys last night every rap category and none of the rap categories was televised and then he got detained and arrested killer mike was about to buy nbc okay all right at least at the least bet all right now we we all know killer mike is a radical black man great human being one of my top five favorite rappers of all time

but an amazing human okay philanthropist entrepreneur morehouse graduate everything y'all negro say black men should be killer mike is and he got a black wife drop on the cruise bombs for shade bigger okay there's nothing i wanted more than to hear killer mike's acceptance speech live on tv and i believed that the powers that be had to keep killer mike from that stage at all costs okay at least on the live television portion i believed that as soon as they decided he was gonna win those awards then immediately they devised a plan to keep him from spreading his unapologetic blackness to the world first you know they just didn't televise the award then he just mysteriously gets handcuffed and detained over an alleged physical altercation and then released you know right after the awards over

this is why i wanted jay-z to go further in his speech last night in light of those circumstances. OK, when he won the Dr. Dre Global Icon Award, you know, he did acknowledge that they didn't televise, televise when the Fresh Prince and Javi Jeff won an award in the 80s. They didn't televise when Jay-Z won a Grammy in the 90s. And now it's 2024 and y'all didn't televise any of the rap categories. How did we make progress all these years only to go back to doing what caused us to boycott y'all in the first place? I would have liked for Jay-Z to make that statement and then called a good brother killer Mike up on stage, you know, to give the acceptance speech live on TV that he should have gotten to begin with. But we didn't get that opportunity because the LAPD decided to detain Michael Renda for some BS.

OK, LAPD, when have y Michael Rinder for some BS. Okay. LAPD. When have y'all ever arrested an artist at the Grammys? Huh? Will Smith smacked Chris Rock at the Oscars. Love Will Smith, but that's assault. He didn't get arrested. They let him sit there for the rest of the show and accept his Oscar when he won.

Killer Mike couldn't get that same type of courtesy in LA. Huh? I'm looking at the charge and it says a physical altercation inside the arena involving a third party. What does that even mean? Third party leads me to believe it wasn't even Mike who was involved in the physical altercation. And the LAPD says somebody, you know, complains. Obviously, we have to do something about it. Really, LAPD?

Really? You question them, book them, embarrass them by walking through the crypto.com arena, got them handcuffed like he just shot the place up for an unspecified misdemeanor. YouTube, y'all know every damn thing. But all of a sudden, you don't want to speak to the injustice that happened to Adamsville's finest. Huh? LAPD, y'all should be ashamed of yourselves. Show me a time when an artist gets arrested from an award show for a misdemeanor. As much as y'all don't like doing extra paperwork, hell, it's understanding as some of y'all officers are. Are you trying to tell me that a misdemeanor as much as y'all don't like doing extra paperwork hell it's understanding as some

of y'all officers are you trying to tell me that a misdemeanor warranted the nonsense y'all put michael rinder through last night nope nope it was a conspiracy i don't know what the conspiracy was but it was a conspiracy was it the white supremacist power structure keeping mike from saying something that was going to shake up black america last night huh was it democratic operatives mad at how killer mike spoke truth to power on bill maher friday night about joe biden huh was they upset about that huh was they upset he might go up there and say something that could impact the upcoming election negatively or was it the barbs who were mad that the grammys announced nicki minaj and ice spice barbie world his best rap song but they were wrong because killer mike won i don't know

why y'all would get mad at mike about that but was it y' mike won i don't know why y'all would get mad at mike about that but wasn't y'all all i know is lapd y'all didn't have to do that okay it could have waited and i hope y'all don't arrest me for some nonsense next time i'm in la because i just gave y'all the credit y'all deserve for being stupid please give the lapd the biggest it was a conspiracy that was well put charlie i like that thank you yeah i believe so as well i believe so as well all right well thank you for that donkey today donkey today is sponsored by renowned personal injury attorney michael the bull lamin soft don't be a donkey when you need a fighter on your side.
