give me a break with the Jay gives back shit, everything Jay has done he has done for publicity and promotion, not to mention it’s all a tax write off, also yeah he has given back more financially than KRS and Budden combined cause he is taking most of the money in hip-hop, they don’t have it….. also I wasn’t even talking about giving back or trying to uplift people with money I’m was comparing bars, what KRS raps about to what jay-z raps about, again I’m just talking emcee to emcee here I’m not talking about how much money they have or anything else I was strictly talking about why I prefer KRS to Jay-Z and that opinion is mine to have regardless of whatever bullshit you wanna throw at me ….
^again i aint telling who to prefer. I’m saying you argument is full of shit. stop perpetrating lies. you dismiss what jay has done as publicity. but what has joe budden or krs done publicity or not? and does it compare to what jay has done?
has krs been to africa? has joe done anything for new jersey? you are a fuckin hypocrite. i love krs and like i said he was central to my development but you drag jay into the argument and its a lie, simply.
… Iceberg asked me if I would put KRS ahead of Jay-Z for GOAT, how is that me trying to drag jay into the argument? Again my point is only about the music you dragged Budden into this conversation I was comparing why I think KRS is a better overall emcee than Jay, so my comparisons are about the music nothing else, end of story stop trying to bring shit outside of music into a debate about music ….

To say “you’re not black” cause you did’nt grow up in America is a false statement in itself and can not be argued upon…heriditarily all blacks are connected.
Now “people” may not “refer” to you as black..but people can be idiots most of the times.

I bet that Italian American had some form of his culture handed down to him, I bet he had a great grandma that can remember being a little girl in Italy before coming to America, I bet he can trace his bloodline back to Italy without science…..Go ask any random black person what tribe, region, country they come from in Africa…..Black people’s heritage is unique in this country in the fact that it was ripped to shreds mixed around and hidden for hundreds of years so that it couldnt be passed down.
October 20th, 2009 at 3:21 pm
Africans have a totally different culture heritage than black people….black people are the descendants of american slaves whose african heritage was erased thru the process of slavery

Some niggas (i will now increase my use of the word 10 fold after this fuckery, no more ninja bull) families take them to trips to Jamaica or France or some shit.
My moms took me and my sister to both Gambia, Freetown, and the Bo islands, and I seen the houses my mom and did lived in.
And when I came back to VA I still was under the same rules and culture norms as the previous nigga. How I or anyone else was raised in our houses nonwithstanding, how are OUR culture truly so separate?

^^I dont dispute this..my main argument was by saying “you’re not black your African” that u made a false statement since you were comparing a RACE to a NATIONALITY.
I don’t dispute the fact that our culture has been fucked up..but our heritage..which we inherited thru birth links us forever.
As a RACE we are linked hereditary
As a NATIONALITY (black American?) we have nothing in common with Africans.
THAT was my point.

^yeah the meaning behind shit, but the form remained. like i was in the market and met with a woman from the north of ghana. she was rockin a gold tooth. but her tooth signified she had gone to mecca and so she was called haijiya as a sign of respect. in america that gold tooth is still there its just that we dont know why we feel that in our culture. all the whys in black culture can be answered in africa. its stupid to think otherwise.

Shoutout to all Asians that are lurkin. I see you *squints eyes even more* *sees complete blackness*
October 20th, 2009 at 3:36 pm
so basically, you’re saying the white man CREATED “black people” through slavery…? before that we were just “africans” right?
Never mind the fact that “African” is not a race, it is a nationality. So what race were these “Africans” if they wasnt “black”?
October 20th, 2009 at 3:36 pm
I’m just sayin if you’re a Black American and you think you’re the same culturally as an African then show me your mom who can speak an African language or your Grandma or Great grandma or great great grandma
If you’re an African and you think you’re culturally the same as a Black American then show me your grandma or greatgrandma who can remember their mother being a slave in America

See you’re drawing alot out of this conversation that i wasn’t saying…I didn’t say Africans couldn’t relate or were somehow less or better or whatever…I just said We not the same, there’s a difference between an African and a black American in terms of culture and heritage…but i’m sure you can relate, Africa has its own history of slavery and rape

^there are many black people like the geechies and all the west indians that can show a grandmother who can speak africanized french, africanized english, patois etc. but that’s even beside the point. the bigger point is believing that slavery is where black people began. its just a falsehood created by slave owners. If somebody cuts you off from your roots they will all be able to control you.

Black is the term picked by Black Americans to identify themselves…but we don’t go around saying black American all the time, just like an Italian American will just call themselves Italian most of the times, This conversation NEVER had anything to do with color of skin….it started cus a African said nigga and was questioned about it and thought that being African equated to being “black enough” as in black American as in freely able to use the word nigga without reprecussion..yea it had a petty start, but still..
October 20th, 2009 at 4:57 pm
You’re all Americans, Africans are born in Africa…its pretty simple and you show your reverse racism when you ignore this fact. Black people continue to claim heritage to Africa, but are you from there? Were your parents born there? No? Then you’re American.
I am white, I never owned a slave and I don’t owe anyone anything. We’re all Americans and shouldn’t expect handouts due to issues that our great-great-great grandparents created…they’re dead.
