    there’s nothing to clarify, alicia. there’s not one white american whose ever owned a parcel of farm land, or one black american, that have not experience how corrupt this american government is.

    gangsta rap was created by american and foreign governments, and perpetuated the white entertainment industry to influence foreign trade, by demonstrating that blacks cannot be trusted.

    one example would be the alleged race riots of the 60′s that were fought by less than 1% of the african american population against the police in america, and the corrupt governments established throughout africa . . . especially in nigeria, where most black african refugees end up.

    She was pretty much spouting exactly what is in the books about the Black Panthers and updated it to include Tupac and Biggie.

    Some PR person wrote that for her so she wouldn’t pull a Britney and sound all crazy.

    I thought they just shipped everyone off to rehab when they made a PR blunder like this?

    i would think she made her ooops-i-didn’t-mean-THAT statement, less because she was afraid of sounding like a conspiracy freak or a modern day black panther, than because ooops-what-are-all-the-black-rappers-going-to-say? here’s a culture that has felt historically disenfranchised and powerless. they find their voice, a voice of power and anger that brings them fame and money, that unites them with others within their culture, that makes them objects of adoration not just within segments of the black community, but also within segments of the world’s communities. now along comes little alicia keyes who says that their voice of power is really nothing more than a little tin trumpet designed by little old white men in suits??? what disrespect. she better back pedal– and fast!

    Great point, Journey. And Herman, can you simplify the relationship between “gangsta rap” and foreign trade? You kind of lost me on that one. Oh, and how did the domestic and foreign governments manage to convince would-be rappers to carry out their master plan?

    Thanks in advance for your guidance.

    if that sister was on stage showing off her body, and selling sex with her image it would not be a big deal about her comment. however, the young lady sells music about love, looking for love, and she is not selling oversexxed filth, and she has love for her audience, so it is a big deal. maybe the establishment did not start gangsta rap, but it sure has come up with ways to exploit, and profit off of it.
