Who remembers “Dial My Heart” singers, The Boys? They’re kind of hard to forget, those young brothas were killin’ it in the 80’s. Nowadays, their lead singer, Hakim Abdulsamad, is 43 years old. Okay, I’ll pause to let that sink in, because, yes, it’s been that long and we’re really THAT old school now.

Back to Hakim…in February 2017, he took to social media to give his take on strip clubs, his concept of what he refers to as “bad b%^ches,” and the state of of our society, which were pretty interesting statements.

In his Facebook post, Hakim first started off by explaining that he’d recently visited a strip club for ‘researching purposes’:

Hakim’s post- “My brother said ‘Yo I gotta take you to the strip club. Not to see naked ladies, but to see how the music is being used to support the strip and alcohol industries. And to see how the sexual energy is being misdirected.’ He knows I’m not that type, so he said ‘just suffer through it so you can see how it all works.’ I went with him.”

Hakim’s conclusion after exiting the strip club- ‘Strippers are unhappy and trashy’ and ‘Good girls are classy’:

“I left thinking about how African girls wanna be like ‘bad bitches’ not having a clue what the real life is about. I also had the thought that some ‘Good Girls’ feel like they get the short end of the stick, because ‘bad bitches’ appear to be enjoying life, getting attention, money and hanging out with celebs… I don’t know, maybe thats why they wanna dress as naked as possible; from classy to trashy. Thats a hustler’s life. Those girls didn’t look so happy to me. Again ‘all that glitters ain’t gold.’ No offense to anyone; just pointing out my observations from a global perspective. American dream or nightmare?”

a) In your opinion, do you think Hakim only went to the strip club to research the ‘misdirected sexual energy’ and how the ‘alcohol industry is being affected?’ OR…

b)  Or do you think Hakim had other intentions as well- you know, the kind that men typically have when visiting a strip club- to check out the lovely strippers inside of it…and not for research purposes?

For the record: Anything’s possible…it’s an honest question…I mean no harm…no judgement…just saying. Hakim, I still got luv for you fam.’
