This is the Dominique Foxworth show.

Welcome to the Dominique Foxworth show. I got a hmm.

I like a hmm.

I didn't know that one.

Yeah, it was a black national anthem now, but yeah, it got repurposed and turned into a song and you about to hear somebody sing it before the Super Bowl. I don't know who's singing it this year. Oh, Audrey Day, I think. Lift every voice and sing goes harder than the Star Spinkle Banner.

It goes really hard.

It's a set up.

Who's singing a national anthem? No idea. Well, we'll figure it out closely
