This is the latest, BRAND NEW (and extended) episode of the syndicated FuseBox Radio Broadcast with DJ Fusion & Ausar Ra Black Hawk for the week of Feb. 3, 2016 with some new and classic music from the international Black Diaspora, news and commentary.

This week's radio show breakdown (by minutes/hours):

0:00:00 - 1:46:47 Extended Intro
1:46:47 - 2:38:51 DJ Fusion Mix
2:38:41 - 3:49:30 Ausar Ra Black Hawk Mix

Our commentary this week touched base on:

• All of the shenanigans of Super Bowl 50 (the game itself, the halftime show with Coldplay, Bruno Mars & Beyonce showing the power of Black Music once again, the crazy racial vibes pre-game & during the event via the media, etc.) 
• The passing of songwriter, music artist & singer Maurice White of Earth, Wind & Fire 
• The upcoming Nile Rodgers & Duran Duran tour 
• Rihanna's new album dropping via TIDAL and the new (kinda, sorta) standards for RIAA platinum and gold certification with streaming services 
• Actor Don Cheadle's upcoming Miles Davis movie "Miles Ahead" 
• DJ Big Kap passing 
• Beyonce dropping her new song and video this weekend with "Formation", the Internet’s extreme responses to it and how far can a pop artist go with pushing their own definition of Blackness (whether for activist or superficial reasons) 
• Various jackassed rap beefs over the past 2 weeks (B.o.B. vs. Neil DeGrasse Tyson and Wiz Khalifa vs. Kanye West) 
• Kanye West being the embodiment of the bitter ex EVERYONE despises when you’re just moved and are living your life 
• DJ Kool Herc's old NYC block in the Bronx being now being officially called Hip-Hop Blvd. 
• Black Folks winning with the Screen Actors Guild (SAG) Awards 
• The UN talking about the need for reparations from slavery for Black Americans 
• Flint Water Crisis updates and new stories about issues of harmful amounts of lead being in the water all over the U.S. 
• Black Lives Matter’s DeRay Mckesson running for mayor of Balitmore and what that means 
• The African wife who crashed her fake funeral after her husband tried to kill her 
• And some other stuff here and there…

There is no brand new Black Agenda Report news mini-segment on this week's episode due to our extended commentary.
