In the latest episode of his powerful podcast on Black men’s mental health, host Casanova Williams delivers a raw and thought-provoking reflection on a troubling trend: Black men going on platforms like No Jumper and VladTV to openly confess to crimes — and then acting surprised when those words come back to haunt them.

Casanova doesn’t sugarcoat the reality. “Let’s be clear,” he says early on, “we shouldn’t be out here doing crimes, period. But when we do, why does the confession come so easy — especially when there’s a white man holding the mic?” This question sits at the heart of a broader conversation about trust, trauma, and the need for validation in spaces where we often aren’t seen.

He breaks down how systemic oppression, poverty, and unhealed trauma lead some Black men into the streets — and then how fame, ego, or a simple desire to be heard push them into the arms of interviewers like DJ Vlad, who are all too eager to let them incriminate themselves for clicks and content. “It’s not just about self-snitching,” Casanova says, “it’s about how easy it is for us to drop our guard when the attention feels good — even if the consequences are life-altering.”

The episode doesn’t just critique — it offers healing. Casanova speaks directly to his brothers: “Your story matters. Your pain matters. But there are safer places to process it than a YouTube interview designed to go viral.” He urges listeners to consider therapy, peer support, and Black-led spaces where vulnerability isn’t weaponized.

What makes this episode special is how Casanova combines street wisdom with clinical insight. He names the internalized beliefs that make some Black men crave approval from white platforms and reminds us that true healing doesn’t come from exposure — it comes from community, accountability, and self-love.

This episode is a must-listen. Not just for Black men, but for anyone trying to understand the complex intersections of race, media, and mental health. Casanova Williams continues to be a vital voice in a conversation too often overlooked.

Dr. Umar has built his platform preaching about the importance of Black men protecting and uplifting Black women—but recent revelations about his own personal life tell a different story. It turns out he has three kids he hasn’t been present for, and instead of taking accountability, he blames the mothers for why he didn’t marry them. In this episode, Casanova Williams breaks down the hypocrisy, the dangers of performative pro-Black rhetoric, and why men need to practice what they preach.

Is Dr. Umar just another example of a public figure failing to live up to their own message? Or is this a wake-up call about blindly following leaders without questioning their actions? Let’s talk about it.
