Interesting track. Well written. Worthy of discussion. No jokes in it though. Average beat, too. Snotty little white children are the naturally
the shittest at talking about racial issues, so I'm not angry with you. You just keep rocking that FUBU and fighting the power, lad. I'm proud of
you, in a weird kind of way.
I'm super glad we could have this little talk. |
it doesn't have to have "jokes" to be "funny" |
So you're laughing at him you're saying? When he's being completely earnest and trying to put you and your mutant people in their place once
and for all? Fair enough. You should keep listening to hip hop and join one nation.

You're one of those cunts who aren't very good at insulting people by demeaning them through impromptu speculation, on account of having no
imagination.

Curb your enthusiasm has quite a lot of jokes, you know. |
it's funny because it's true
i have a lot of "imagination" actually  |
= pretend imagination.

True. But being able to work that out doesn't help defeat the pervasiveness and toxicity of the triviality.

Mess is blasting this thread.
PS It's always nice when homophobia is thrown into the mix with racial agendas, rounds it out.

pretty much the same as the album, only production vibe stopped that lyrical gem from getting 5 mics back when.

Now, I'm nowhere near informed enough to comment on most of this but at least I'm pretty sure humans evolved at least 60 thousand years ago, or else
we'd have had not the requisite time to evolve into all our variant splendours.
Also I found this line pretty amusing:
"Blue eyes, blonde hair and white skin
Albinism apparently was a sin to the original man, Africans
So the mutants traveled North of the equator
Called Europeans later, the first race haters" 
From this we clearly see Ras Kass is at least a little bit full of shit, but I was wonderng if any you fine people would be in a position to help me
quantify exactly how full he is...
Little help? |
It is interesting that the only use of the word ‘apparently’ in the entire song is in reference the Africans shunning the white people, then two lines
down he calls the Europeans the first race haters as you’ve pointed out. Everything else he claims did happen (not to say that it didn’t but who
really knows?).
Very interesting shit though. Too bad this thread didn’t really provoke the discussion you were after.

So after listening to the song and reading along with the lyrics and then reading through this thread, I must say; this is quite possibly the most
enthralling shit I've read recently.
Regarding the catching feelings business, I can't say I did, but instead I now have an increased thirst for knowledge to know if it is the truth, or
what really happened.
But I'm lazy as fuck so that probably wont occur.
Cheers mess.
the whole "I don't have time/give a fuck" thing doesn't work when you got time to post YouTube videos of goats on a hip hop forum

Looked like a much better thread before it stopped.
But what I was really going for with this thread was getting everyone else here to tell me which bits are good and factually valid points and which
are self serving pap.
Ras Kass is a very good rapper and obviously earnest about his beliefs, but that doesn't mean he's not also a bit of a dick. Or that he is. Needs
verification.

Anyone looked further into this? Still interested to know what is fact and what is fiction.

Yup.
This topic has been flogged to death. White folks often tend to catch feelings of this specific track. |
hehehe

lads,
for the last time. this is standard black history viewpoint (US angle), as opposed to the more common white history viewpoint (US angle), and the
reality is - the truth is somewhere in between, if you mix it with dinosaurs and leave out Joseph Smith.
