Today's topic? Fox's 10 favorite quotes from black people.

If you don't know who Fox is, chances are you've seen one (or two, or three, or 10) of his memes across social media, the Internet provocateur having made iconic memes such as this one and this one.

The latest episode (which drops today) finds him speaking with bass virtuoso (and Jeopardy! answer) Thundercat.

Along with his favorite quotes Fox has also provided a quick playlist of "Blackity Black" tracks that are sure to help you ride out the rest of the month and year (if Trump doesn't lead us to nuclear warfare that is).
