Better yet.

What would you do if some suit wearing, university graduating, well spoken politicion discourse using black people started to run rap.

Theyd probably do the exact same job as the white guys are doing now.

They'd just have a different skin color.

Would that be ok for you then?

Well, I don't really have the energy to explain..


But of course white people have more money, and when hip hop started off they went to white labels (which was most of the labels out then). So its not exactly all white people, but since most of the country is white, white people will sell more. And white people have always been richer in America so they'll most likely own the labels. Dunno if I'm making any sense, its not like theres soem secret cult out there for all white ppl wanting labels. It's just how shit is. It's not really something to be debated. I don't see why white people have a problem with admitting the extra boost they'll get. OF COURSE I KNOW NOT ALL WHITE PEOPLE WILL GET THE BOOST, just you know... but black people wouldn't run it any different, it's just the money.

yes true i was correcting you cause you made it seem like blacks where the poorest race

Indeph 05-25-06 10:36 PM

Well my neighborhood is poor and I'm black. Most black people in this country are poor. And I dont think you can count the numbers, its a matter of percentage. Theres not alot of black people in the country, theres like 12% black ppl. And most of them are poor so they're the poorest race.

Bro... Its the CEO's, reguardless of color that control rap.

I mean shit, if we were running a mile long race and 3 or 4 white guys won while everyone else (black and white) all were lagging behind... Would you sit here and complain about the entire white race over that too?



Listen brothaman...what i am preachin on is that White men has always dominated am speaking all the way from the Indian to slavery...etc White supremacy still continues not as the same form as it use to but just a little twist for example government is majority is controlled by white. and am not sayin entire white race is but the facts of the mather is when people say fried chicken people stereotype it with blacks even though the maker of fried rice is white...another example is Wellfare no one points out that most well fare takers are white midle class single mothers!! etc.

And so?

I think its merely a matter of first in best dressed...

While our cultures were expanding and taking over, your cultures were chilling back in stone age nomadic tribes.. Thats the difference...

Sure you can say its fucked up, but at the end of the day the white nation is doing its best to give other races (blacks, hispanics, etc) a chance, but there will always be that "we got here first" type vibe... And thats just life...

Its not even politically correct what I'm saying right now.. Its just the cold hard facts.. Take it for what you will...

Indeph 05-26-06 05:25 AM

Rofl white people didnt get anywhere 1st but around europe. White people in America at least are like robbers breaking into people's houses and actually living there. Then having the NERVE to complain about people not washing dishes. And the white nation is NOT "giving people a chance" it's actually doing the exact opposite. Do you have ANY idea why the other nations are poor in the 1st place? They've done alot more harm to the human race than you're saying. It's not just politcally incorrect its just completly wrong, but you being white I dont expect you to ever say that.

it'd be exactly the same if black people "dominated"...because people gotta realise that humans are humans fuck skin colour...omg...

shit we should all be skinned @ birth then we'd have nothing to be racist about

Indeph 05-26-06 05:37 AM

That didnt really make sense. Of course it would be the same if black people did what white people did, but.... we didnt. How do you know black people as a race would do something like that. Its just seen completly different from a black persons perspective since we're directly affected by it. I wish race didnt matter either, but the fact that you quoted what I wrote and didnt say shit about Nos's post which was so completly amasing, shows SOMETHING. You can't even lie.

If you were white, you wouldnt have a chip on your shoulder either...

Where your philosophy is wrong though is when you realise not all white people are benefitting off the few... Really were all just in the same mess, with different skin colors....
