Blueliner Posted May 20, 2018 Report Share Posted May 20, 2018 I can appreciate this guy’s talent. Very creative and passionate. But this video didn’t enlighten me on anything that I didn’t already know. This the same inflammatory stuff we see and hear all day wrapped in a different package...and kinda creepy to be honest. Yet again, another sad message as to how deep the resentment is for blacks against whites. I also have an issue with the author’s broad brush stroke inference that America (all white people)hates black people. And equally as frustrating for me is there are no solutions whatsoever in this video. Tupac was all about solutions as well. A pretty cool video all n all though.

The dude that wrote this has talent. But IMHO he has no vision. Respectfully, this rap sounds like many we’ve heard in the past. He’s probably making a few bucks off it though.

II've been around the block a few times. I have extensive experience in life. I am in a position to observe attitudes and actions of others. I promise that I do my best to stay objective, and keep my heart and moral compass pointing the right direction. I can state my feelings and beliefs with conviction and I don’t take that lightly. Look at a guy like SN. He’s the epitome of what I’m talks about. Guys like that make it harder for everyone. Anger, resentment,....no solutions at all. My favorite SN quote is “America is turning brown and you don’t like it”. Deep🙄 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s a fine line of spreading the positive message of equality vs. the negative message of injustice and inequality. The artists that can accomplish this are the ones that., to me, are really talented. Agenda driven messages are death to this country. To me , these videos are compelling, but agenda driven.

Deep🙄 So you don't think there are whites that have deep resentment towards blacks and are vocal about it as well? My question is why do they think resentment is only pointed deep from blacks towards whites? i can't speak entirely for SN, but I do know based on his age he grew up with segregation in the south. So you honestly think that was some happy go lucky period for blacks? His comments could be a response to his personal experience with this country's oppressive Jim Crow system.

A message of inequality and injustice is negative? the rational agenda for those being oppressed would be equality. How is that negative?
