Marlon Wayans has been involved in the entertainment industry for decades. Experiencing the shift in culture throughout the years, he is now calling for peace among hip-hop artists. In an interview for Sway's Universe, he discussed his thoughts on the current status of the hip-hop industry and more specifically the amount of beef between artists.“All this beefing and all this nonsense, yo, it could escalate,” said Wayans “We too old to be that dumb, and then, kids, stop with this stupidity. Life is so precious. I’m so grateful to be able to be 51, right. To be able to have lived a long life, my parents would have wanted that,” https://www.instagram.com/reel/Cz3zpwYOrkD/?utm_source=ig_embed&ig_rid=f90a46a4-55fe-43f6-8375-582ad914b55dHe joined Sway while he is currently on a press run for his latetst comedy special Good Grief. Wayans' career spans several different eras of hip hop and back when he first started, the genre was mainly focused on positivity and story telling. “I just think about all that nonsense, and it’s like, let’s kill that noise. They need to bring positivity back to hip hop. I miss that old school,” Marlon continued before rapping “Self-Destruction,” a 1989 song by the Stop the Violence Movement. His new comedy special is about dealing with the feeling and coming out on the other side of grief. In a recent interview, he shared that he has experienced the death of 57 family members. Speaking about the heartache and intensity of losing so many loved ones, he said, “I’ve been through it. I’ve been at rock bottom, I’ve been in darkness, I’ve been in dark times. People don’t know what I’ve been feeling. They don’t know the pain that I’ve been going through and what’s happening in my life ’cause I always <a href="https://madamenoire.com/1333045/bozoma-saint-john-fashion-style-through-grief/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">find</a> my smiles.”“When you get laughs, it makes you come out of your own funk,” he explained.

Comedian <a href="https://www.wbls.com/wbls-news/marlon-wayans-kicked-off-united-flight">Marlon Wayans</a> says he is being unfairly prosecuted over a dispute with a United airline employee who he alleges targeted him because of his race.As we previously reported, the White Chicks actor was cited for disturbing the peace, a municipal violation, back in June.According to the <a href="https://fortune.com/2023/10/19/marlon-wayans-united-airlines-discrimination-lawsuit/">court filing</a>, a United Airlines gate agent told him he could not get on a flight to Kansas City with three bags. The gate agent apparently tried to physically block Wayans from getting on the flight after he consolidated his luggage into two bags to conform with airline policy, the filing said. He boarded anyway and was later asked to get off the plane before it departed.While Wayans worked to rearrange his luggage, the gate agent kept allowing white passengers with three bags to board the flight, according to the court filing, which included still photos of surveillance video of white passengers with yellow arrows pointing to each of their bags. About 140 people boarded the flight, it said, many with three bags and oversized bags which violated the airline’s policy.The defense team for Wayans accuses the gate agent of racial discrimination against the actor. By continuing to pursue charges against him, they argue that Denver prosecutors perpetuate that discrimination and deny his right to equal protection under the law. “The City of Denver’s position is an affront to constitutional and social equity principles,” Wayans’ legal team said.A telephone message and an email to the city attorney’s office were not immediately returned. United did not immediately respond to an email seeking comment.
