This reminds me of way back in the day, when kids used to think I was trying to act black just because I rapped. It was really wack because I didn't act any differently around white people than I did around black people. I hung out in the "hoods", still got some good friends out there, but it was always cool because everyone knew I was just being myself. Now there's some white people I know that will get really uneasy in those areas, and actually thouroughly convince themselves that they're gonna get shot. That's just stupid IMO.

So basically you're making a statement saying that you have things in common with or are similar to the stereotype black person. Because of this, a lot of people will see you as wanting to be "black." Thus, you become a wigger.


Truth...sometimes...i wear hoodies trackie bottoms but other times i dress more like a chav wit the football shirt lol...and other times i smarten up...but i know what i am...and i don't have a particular style of clothing...i jus wear whats comfortable for me i wouldnt say i dress constantly like a person who loves hip hop or a rapper i'm pretty much jus an average joe really...

i know what you mean, where i grew up, is rough as fuk, mainly run by yardies, shit is just a mess, cnt describe it... anyway when i moved where i am now which is some what a decent area, still has trouble but nowhere like where i lived, anyways ppl was allways like "oh u wigga" cos of how i dressed n the music i listen to... n then i started gettin "where u grew up isnt rough... u jus tryna be black cos its the image" so when i went to visit my dad i took one of them over.... and walked upto my cousins house for a party... the kid was paranoid all the way there, turned up to the house party full of yardies, n he just started gettin scared.... then a few hours in the night sum1 got shot on the street next to the one we was at, police cars n helicoptors all over.. n dude was starting to literally freak out "omg omg sum1 got shot, omg im dead" kinda shit.

kids like that make me laugh

The way you come off to people and the way your personality actually is are two different things.

You come off as a wigger....

Totally agree with you on this...cause its the same thing with me. All my white friends call me "kracka" and shit...and say that I pretend to be black. Truth is, I don't talk, walk, or even act black at all. Rap is music...OH NO YOUR CHINESE BECAUSE YOU PLAY THE DRUMS!!!

Same shit...different pile.
