Basically, they think because you have a certain skin tone, you should be listening to people who share that skin tone. BS
Oh goodness. I was ...( 1 month ago by chan25)
Oh goodness. I was not trying to go there, but since YOU did, I'm going to clear some things up.
I DO NOT give a shit about what people think about me listening to whatever. I'm a black female, who's got stuff on her ipod for various genres of interests. BIG DEAL. Why does it ALWAYS have to come to this? Really? I also have a white boyfriend, how 'bout that?
My point with my comments (part ly in response to the vid) was that there are many genres that get or have gotten criticism.
I was using an ...( 1 month ago by chan25)
I was using an example of myself, (because people who like different genres get shit for that reason all the time). And being a fan (who could care less), I happen to understand the criticism of the culture of the genre.
I'm sorry but I think you were wrong to say those comments. It was never about skin tone. Skin tone doesn't equal music genre. With certain genres do certain races dominate? Yes! But that does not mean that people who 'match' have to ONLY enjoy them. Geeze.
Oh come ON. You ...( 1 month ago by oibk367)
Oh come ON. You knew palecabbage directed that comment to YOU because of your race. Next it's gong to be the slayings of R&B. LOL That's because people think R&B is artists like ciara and rihanna. They don't know real R&B like Jill Scott, India.Arie, Terisa Griffin who are MUSICIANS as well as singers. Oh, and who all DON'T shake their asses in music videos.
My point is,it's a cycle. This show is about people who don't want to be stereotyped by people. But THEY DO IT TOO. Same nasty ignorance
CHAN, it's been ...( 1 month ago by oibk367)
CHAN, it's been proven by the comments. No one is saying you must like a genre. But don't make others out to be inferior and stereotype because they are not the same as you. Isn't that what you people fight for?
CHAN, I truely don't know why you even deal with people who think your Black father is a rapist, and you are a loud, fat obnoxious black girl. Because I bet more than half of these people commenting think you are one. Because of their SURVEYS.
Wow... this is a ...( 1 month ago by PaleCabbage)
Wow... this is a long discussion i've missed. I apologise to all people who thought I was being racist, or insinuating that rap music "commands" you to commit crimes. I listen to rap and many other genres, and am a friend of several international classical musicians. I was only making the point that many cultures are maligned purely for their initial appearance. I'm sorry that in trying to defend one culture from discrimination, i overeacted and discriminated against another
You didn't offend ...( 1 month ago by chan25)
You didn't offend me. I had nothing against your comments. It's that oibk367 person who decided to take the conversation to a place it wasn't necessary...I apologize if you felt in any way, I was trying to counter you. I was just trying to relate some other points.
I personally didn't ...( 1 month ago by chan25)
I personally didn't see any racial comments in your posts. They were fine to me. I really hate when people like oibk do that.
Ok Chan, I'm Asian, ...( 1 month ago by oibk367)
Ok Chan, I'm Asian, and I think I took the conversation to where it is necessary. I'm a fan of various styles of rock too. But I can't stand some of the people who listen to rock and are a part of the culture, and think they are better than everybody else and their style of music.
And some people do use their "dislike of rap and hip hop" to BE racist. So...you should be happy Chan, that I was calling it out. Not ALL rap is about shooting people, and stealing, and bragging about cars.
In fact the reason ...( 1 month ago by oibk367)
In fact the reason why people think what they think about rap, is because the REAL rappers that DON'T rap about money, sex, cars, clothes, and violence. They are the ones who do NOT get played. So people don't hear their stuff on the radio or advertised, so ofcourse they're going to chastise the genre because of the cliche rappers. The whole situation is sad.
Then they think that cultural music from the Caribbean like dancehall is 'rap' HAHAHA, and Soca is 'hip hop'. I laugh.
So basically to be ...( 1 month ago by oibk367)
So basically to be on the topic of this show:
--EVERYBODY gets it. No matter your age, or what genre you listen to. Every generation and genre gets chastised by others. Some for plain old stereotypical reasons. It's sad.
