George Bush doesn't care about Black People........
09/09/05
George Bush doesn't care about black people. Once again another hip-hop artist opens their mouth and the world receives a valuable nugget of knowledge---not. Okay, since when do intelligent, rational human beings get their social political advice from a hip-hop artist?
Kanye West is just another in a long line of artists too ignorant to realize their own stupidity. I will say this much. There was a time when hip-hop was relevant. Yes, I know a lot of you are choking from seeing me make that statement, but let me elaborate.
Hip-hop in it's early years was a creative, ingenious, insightful, just plain dayum fun genre of music. The artists were individualistic, charismatic--shit all the things that captures ones ear and imagination.
So what the fuck happened? It's my opinion that when hip-hop artists were elevated to prophet-like status they started to believe their own hype,(sorta like Bono of U2), that plus the fact the motherfuckin' thug as gangsters took over the music. The result is a uninspiring, self-centered, materialistic, sadistic, chauvinistic, racists--yes racists, music suitable only for strip club booty-shaking.
Let's get back to Kanye West for a moment. Like most hip-hop artists these days, Kanye probaly is in possession of a 10th grade education. Also it can be safely assumed that he is not exercising a fundamental skill--reading. How else can you explain dumb-ass comments made during NBC's live concert fundraiser to benefit the victims of Katrina. Personal beliefs aside, why didn't the Bastard think for a moment about the possibility of his beliefs discouraging donations?
Why get up there on live TV, supposily begging for donations, and in the same breath alienate a segment of donors? Dayum, I'm sorry. I asked a couple of questions that would require a logical thought path. The answer can only truly be expessed in the vernacular of Kanyes contemporaries, " Kanye don' no' no logic".

There is plenty of decent hiphop being produced if you look oustide the American mainstream.
I don't disagree with your assessment about the timing of Kanye's accusations, but I think he's just expressing a quick-glance opinion when the real sad part is that when the hurricane wiped out the command and control chainf or first responders, NO was left to rely on big government to bail it out. And as any libertarian would know (and Kanye, it seems did not), big government moves s-l-o-w.
per Mark Twain-In the real world, nothing happens at the right place at the right time. It is the job of journalists and historians to correct that. Ron got it right: MOST opinions are formed from a quick glance.

I like how you said "Once again another hip-hop artist opens their mouth and the world blah blah blah" and then you followed it up by saying "NOT!" LOL your sooo funny and sooo orginal...omg i mean where do you get this sense of humor from ....gee i mean your right up there with Sinbad and Bobo the clown.... but anywayz to the point ...
Look it's nor our fault that 30 percent of New Orleans lives in poverty or that tens of thousands had no transportation to get out of town. C'mon, they're black! I mean, it's not like this happened in New Hamphsire or Maine. Can you imagine leaving white people on their roofs for five days? Don't make me laugh! Race has nothing -- NOTHING -- to do with this!
No one had their panties in a bunch when he was supporting gays, why start bashing him now? He said what was on his mind and people got a little uncomfortable...the question is why?
Very interesting blog. I've read most of it. Are you a "black conservative?" I thought they were a myth.
Thanks for the very informative insults via ABB.
I posted them. Hope you don't mind.
I "tagged" you as well which means you have a few more questions to answer if you are up for it.
