“Out of All the times the internet tried to tear me down…I held my spot down head up through it all and came out smiling on top,”

It’s so sad he got his mother’s face, he’s hard to look at.

The viral footage is a reminder that folks feel way to comfortable stealing from our culture—and we need to continue to call them out on it.

“Never underestimate the arrogance of white people,”

The real arrogance is thinking people in other countries should be educated and adhere to the cultural rules of other places.  Do you get offended when women you know go out without wearing Burkhas, that offends the Taliban after all.

You black folks really are mad at Asian students over affirmative action ending, huh?

So only Black people are allowed to dance now?

So, what you’re saying is, a bunch of Asia frat boys got together one day and said, “Hey, let’s erode the significance of what Black people have fought for because racist institutions and structures gave them no choice.” Really?

Thats not blackface... This is blackface

Exactly! They like to pretend that Em isn’t even a part of the conversation. He’s a top tier lyricist who is highly respected by most of the artists that The Root puts in these lists. Rakim even called Em one of the greatest emcee’s that he’s ever heard.

Blackface doesn’t have negative history, or any history at all in Poland and Eastern Europe. They probably don’t think it’s offensive in this context.

Right? He’s more than proved his rap prowess. I think only 2pac and Ice cube could have went toe to toe with eminem. Not alot of people could do that. Even a somewhat lazy diss track like “Kill shot” was enough to end MGK.

They never put Eminem in any of their lists. It’s crazy to me.

I’m sorry, no Eminem’s “the sauce”, or “The warning”? the warning was especially crazy considering he dropped the voice recording Mariah did in the middle of the song. I know this the root, but come on now.

She attempted to run over a police officer who was standing directly in front of her car.

Philipinos? Twenty years?

How the hell did you even read through that shit?

Damn! Might be the best wall of text yet! Gawt damn I wonder what it’s like talking to you!

As my partner likes to say, “Why do you have to bring up old shit?”

West has been a joke for sometime.
