Black Twitter Calls Out Justin Timberlake For His Jesse Williams Tweet
Вставка
- Опубліковано 29 чер 2016
- Black Twitter wasn't having it with Justin Timberlake the night of Jesse Williams speech. They called out Timberlake for turning his back on Janet Jackson during the nipplegate controversy. Also his appropriation of black music and culture.
Everybody want to be "Black", but nobody want the Black struggles...
No one "wants to be black" just because they appreciate a certain derivative of black culture. If I like to sing opera does that mean I want to be Italian? If I paint in an impressionist style does that mean I want to be French? Who in their right mind would want "the black struggles?" Blacks don't want the Black struggles. It's just some thing they face, apart from any art form. It would exist whether Hip Hop existed or not. Get real.
David Smith , A Hit dog will holler every damn time..Smdh :/
Blacks aren't anything special we all have struggles. So chill
StayHumble 1017 ,If Blacks aren't anything special, why are you on a "Black" man's UA-cam channel? Get your own UA-cam channel and talk about your own damn struggles..Control your emotions, Mr. StayHumble..
@cheryl Israel Loving whiteness, lifting up whiteness, and asserting white Power can be frightening for a lot of black folks who just don’t understand, who refuse to understand...It’s Okay to Be Pro-White in a World That’s Anti-White..Because if we don’t take the time to value, empower and love up on ourselves and each other every single day, who will?
When the shoe is on the other foot it sounds racist as can be right! maybe you should redo your slogan.
Justin timber fake is like the first person that opens their mouth when a group of people are being addressed about stolen merchandise.....he responded as a means of playing ignorant to the fact that he knows Jessie Williams was speaking directly to him and a long list of white people who benefit greatly from our culture and bear none of the burden that people of African descent have always been made to endure in a white supremacist country.
Exactly!
If you think life is terrible here, I challenge any of you to go to Africa and see how it turns out. With most African countries plagued by years of corruption and civil war, I highly doubt most of us will do better. Most African leaders use their ability to get aid from America or other Western countries to stay in power while never using those funds to actually help their people. Racism and corruption knows no racial boundaries. My story is probably not even possible in Africa or anywhere else in the world and I am far from being rich. No one can argue than many injustices have been done to blacks in the past and America should be ashamed of that. However, I think black Americans the last 50 to 100 years have benefitted more from being in America than the other way around. Am I saying racism (systemic or otherwise) does not exist? Hell no. I do think that if a person is determined enough not to take his eyes off the prize or get caught in the cycle of crime, teenage pregnancy, or drugs, you can make it in America in spite of blatant racism or being raised in an impoverished neighborhood. All of this whining and complaining about whether JT or other artists profiting by adopting elements of music or culture thought to be the realm of blacks only does nothing to further anyone's cause. If anything, it makes us look small-minded, petty, and whiny. If you can prove copyright infringement, then sue. Life is never going to be fair or equal. I have not gotten advancement opportunities in my field I felt I should have gotten in spite of having more experience and education than the people I went up against. You have to pick and choose your battles and keep pushing forward. FYI, black Americans would be one of the 15 richest countries in the world if you take the assets of all blacks and form a separate country.
+DV “Eppish” Epps that said, Africa I no way is a part of the discussion here so it's irrelevant
+Don apparently u haven't heard of federal housing red lining, the GI Bill, & social security cuz black workers/soldiers were shut out of all three. when blacks finally starting receiving the benefits of Society the govt stopped providing them within 15 years. I am assuming that u are a white worker. workers of all stripes have had it horribly since the 1970s, but blacks have experienced that for more than 400 years now. when white folks realize that black oppression is also used to repress white labor or that the kkk was used not only to terrorize black southern population but also to bust unions (that's why union membership in south has historically been low), we may start making progress
+Weak people are meat. The strong will eat. thing that bugs me is that media portrays MLK like a man who turned the other cheek. he was called a terrorist by white supremacists from Birmingham to Chicago, from Atlanta to Detroit. he said, I paraphrase, "what's the good of being able to eat at a lunch counter if u can't afford the hamburger?"
I don't like Justin Timberlake anyway lol
"Inspired to do what?" I am screaming 😭😭
Actually most of these white "boy bands" are a rip off of "New Edition" (a black boy band).
Black Man I was thinking the same thing!
Let's not forget they had Justin, JC and Ryan Gosling singing Jodeci songs on the Mickey Mouse Club. LOL
Just think he doesn't want the controversy . He like black music but don't want be involved in social media.
Justin need to sit down because he isn't going to do anything
He never said he was. He was speaking on the issue... You know, freedom of speech and all that?
how you know? countless celebrities donate money and other things to charities and other causes. Just cause the media doesn't show it, because its "boring" doesn't mean it don't happen. This what pissed me off about Phil, "when people say they are inspired they follow it up with actions, what are you gonna do Justin?" like damn, the man just posted that tweet, how you know what he about to do or not do?
Well, he did bring up the "wardrobe malfunction" that occurred when Janet Jackson and Timberlake were performing at the Super Bowl. They were supposed to be friends, but Timberlake didn't have a thing to say in support of Janet Jackson when Janet was being attacked from all sides. Even his family and his people were talking about how Janet was an old has-been trying to ride on Timberlake's coat tails. Do you believe that? And he remained silent, he never stood up for her.Maybe today, if something like that happened, he would respond differently. I doubt it, though. His thoughtless and condescending tweet shows that he's willing to be supportive when it doesn't cost him anything. Otherwise? Nope.
and are you going to do anything about the problem ?
justin didnt have a chance, simply because he was a white man, these people want to have a victim mentality, sit down, whine and cry about it, and then want to fight among themselves and with others and then when no one is helping them, they wonder why they are alone in their plight and no one assists them...
Timberland was quoted as saying "it's to late to apologize" in response to this. I still can't believe so many black people are defending him after Jessie Williams literally laid out a description of what white people have been doing forv500 years, then exhibit A or in this case J present itself...and people still defending him. Conprehension is something a lot of people don't have today. Scary as hell having dialog with those people because it ain't conversation or even communication!
Tell it like it is brother fight the power
Yes amen.
Lol
the power is NO MAN'S friend, by it's very nature it is corrupted. It's not a white vs black issue, it's how we are divided and conquered by the media and politics of the power structure that is the problem. Don't buy into this us vs them. The nature of the state is what is at the core of evil.
+DoYouThinkForUrselF really tbh it's not about that it's like everyone want to be black until real shit happen and it's time to be black I see what you are saying but it's not about white vs black
Stop speaking English and using the Roman alphabet please, it's racist and cultural-appropriation.
Justin TimberFAKE 😂😂😂 I love it! Call a spade a spade. That’s what I was always taught.
This video is completely unnecessary chill with the irrelevant content +1 dislike
+Cookingwith Sade I'm black....
+Maxwell 251 someone called me a wet dog a pecker wood then deleted the comment
You don't have to watch.
Seems like most comments didn't even watch the video and listen to his points.
These misinformed and clueless commenters on this thread are ignorant AF. As Jesse Williams said, "if you have a critique of our resistance, then you better have an established record of critique of our oppression!".
Just pure ignorance from the butthurt White people who don't like to be reminded that the American dream is only marketed for them and the infantilization of American history is for them to sleep better at night. Who wants to be reminded that their ancestors were greedy, murderers, rapists and complicit in the torture of human beings?
great video brother
great video and commentary. clearly he didn't listen to anything Jesse Williams said or maybe he did and it was a hit dog hollering.
I never understood why there was such an uproar over the super bowl incident with Janet and Timberlake. She was on board with it. She's on board with most things that have to do with non black men.
And as far as him "appropriating" black culture, yeah he makes "black" music and he doesn't address social issues. But neither do 90% of black artists who market black on black crime, promiscuity and chaos in their music! Come on man...
Exactly! Why get so pissed when most black people don't speak out either. This s#!t is counterproductive, what white celebrity in their right mind would even bother after seeing how it worked out for JT.
Testos Tyrone I think 🤔 that you missed the point with the Janet Jackson Super Bowl performance. This dude was in on it. When the media jumped on him he immediately said it wasn't me it was her, as if he wasn't in on it.
Here’s the thing tho: not only was Janet banned from ever performing at the Super Bowl but he literally pinned the blame on her acting like he wasn’t the one that ripped her tittis loose. But I think we should’nt hold that against him because if Janet can move past it we can too. I mean he did apologize to her. Justin grew over the years but he’s still ignorant and a culture vulture. I totally agree I know he means well. I like him still.
Matthew Hancock what are you saying?
Matthew Hancock yes black people had to learn how to read and write because it was foreign language that was beat into them not their native language so we can't be culture valtures because we haven't stolen anything from anybody and named it as our own
Excellent broadcast brother
The only problem I had with JT is the fact that when Janet Jackson got criticism for the costume milfunction that happen during the Super Bowl halftime proformance while JT turned his head and did not take responsibility for his part. He should have stood up for Janet by saying it was an accident it was not intentional, we are both sorry, leave Janet alone, that's it and that's all. But no, he turned his head while Janet took the all of the backlash. Not cool...
*"Justin TimberFAKE" LOL!*
An excellent post, Phil. So much, in fact, that I will send this to Timberlake via Twitter. This needs to viewed. Appreciation to you.
I don't get it... 😒 what exactly happened? I just don't understand why this is a big deal ...
He's white!!
White man agrees with black man about the state of the world
Black people call him racist... legit
and fyi, Disney doesn't allow people to take creative control of their sound... you do as you're told until you fulfill your contract... When Justin got out, he did HIM... it's stupid to think that an artist shouldn't evolve over the years to match what society wants
love your show
I love your show! Keep opening people's eye's and raising awareness. Thank you for all your efforts in bringing the TRUTH to the light
Do you guys realize that Justin Timberlake and Jesse Williams are really good friends!!!
But when Kanye wears a kilt and every rapper follows we don't call y'all swagger jackets oh wait would it be culture vulture Jessie Williams ain't even black wtf
To think that I honestly liked his music from back then...
+Grim Reaper your a racist asshat.
I literally threw out his cd's. Especially after hearing the shit he said to Prince years ago. Oh fuck no.
+Grim Reaper there can only be 1 reaper on UA-cam. Change your name
+Gen3ralGrimReaper well said
What did he say to Prince? Hopefully not something racist
Thanks for speaking for us Phil.
Keep Up The Good Work: Advise Show TV.
Come on man he's just a music, just because he makes music that relates to a certain type of ,genre doesn't mean he has to become an activist, that's not his job. And I feel you on a lot of subjects Advise Show but you're wrong for calling Justin Timberlake out.
This dude has a huge chip on his shoulder
We are the same but we’re definitely not treated the same
Absolutely Bro. Phil. I agree with you. Thanks for this video.
TKO for Justin Timberlake
Damn if he do, damn if you don't. He would have been called out if he did speak up on other issues.
So on point on this commentary !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Yes that's true my bro,they always take what we have done,patent it take it as their own and leave us out.But the problem is we let them.
Hell he couldn't stand up for Janet, so what will he do?
The right complexion gets the connection.
It's our fault because we made them feel comfortable with taking our stuff
THANK U FOR THIS!👏👏👏👏👏
Playing the race care is impossible when the deck is loaded. I've been watching this channel for a few years...Still waiting to hear something that isn't true. Good Work P.
Actions over words... I'm up for that... I'm far away but am ready to continue the fight I began April 4th, 1968.
You speak very great truth, but I am going to have to disagree with this Commentary. Yes, Hip Hop, R&B, and Urban Gospel are our music genres, and our culture. But with me, music is music. Chris Brown, Usher, and Ne Yo had a few Pop Songs. And Darius Rucker is a Black Country Singer. So, what's the difference ? But that's your opinion, and I respect that. Now, I do have to call out Justin Timberlake on one of his Comments, that we are all the same. Because we are not the same. We cannot get away with some things, that he can get away with. We African Americans have been unjustly treated so cruel and wrong in this Country for the Last 400 Years. So, we are not the same. Now, I know that Mr. Advise Show have done this Two Years Ago. But, if these people want to go after somebody for disrespecting our culture, go after the other Justin. Which is Justin Bieber, for putting all of those Tattoos on his arms, and making racist jokes about African Americans. But Justin Timberlake, Robin Thick, Jon B, and George Michael, you all shouldn't go after them. I have not seen them disrespecting our culture one time.
In case you didn't know Mozart and Beethoven was were half black in other words mixed race so the music from then had black roots
Justin and Jesse might as well be White brothers...lol
Agree with Phil's argument; don't agree with the degree of response. If Justin Timberlake made an offense it was extremely slight.
Another Elvis with the BS
should be going after tomi lahern instead of Justin. What she said was far more out of line
+Non Violence Exactly. The 90s were the best. It wasn't this bad.
+Bloombaby99 I'm sure it was, it was hidden more. Now we have social media to expose everything and it waits for immediate emotions, actions and reactions that can't be taken back or sugarcoated once unleashed.
+Non Violence ignoring what happened or changing the truth aren't going to help either
+Non Violence the only butt hurt person in this thread is you and it's hilariously obvious. BTW they did speak on this back then but since that was pre social media it wasn't as loud
troublemaker574 ✔
I love you videos Mr. Advise
Thank you, well done
I wasn't aware there was specific music only meant for certain races. When did it became taboo to make certain music? It is this type of complaining that segregated us all.
Create something instead of being Imitators of other people's voices in white face...looking like y'all playing the role of Pat Boone in a TV movie about how imitating black musio styles made a no talent white man famous and wealthy off of singing karioki and looking creepy while doing it.
You don't seem to quite understand music history in thid country. There is space for many people but when black people get pushed out of spaces or genres of music that they help create, that is a problem.
Shut your dumb ass up!!
Of all people, we're going to critique and get upset over Justin Timberlake, but we are okay with the demonic, misogynist, and violent and divisive musicians that get celebrated at these award shows. Why can' t we focus on issues that actually matter? We're really wasting our energy on trying to find an issue with Justin Timberlake, expecting him to understand the context of the speech, when as a white man he obviously would have a difficult time relating to many of the things that Jesse Williams brought up. You're mad at him because he doesn't understand what it's like to be black. Of course he doesn't. Is there really what this has come to?
...I was getting ready to be mad at this man and then he started speaking the truth. Preach on bruh. ✊🏿
Phill do you know what went on behind the scenes with Janet Jackson?
I don't see wat jt did wrong
So why did he apologize!!
Nah bruv. I'm not with you on this one.
Yes, he should do something, but we should chill on non-issues.
Roland Taylor because they are practing black music they should to fight for black people this make no sense
This was a very good point! Many non-Black folk are not as understanding to own the level of responsibility that comes with the challenges that this music brings for Black artists and people of color. Historically, this music has political attachments to it.
Justin and the rest of them are opportunistic because the truth be known that many of the masses would rather buy the music from a White person anyway, then a Black artist. That’s why a Chuck Berry, Fats Domino, or Little Richard would never be as famous as Elvis Presley who copied them. Yet, artists like Diana or Tina are inimitable then and even now.
I am not saying that whomever is not good, then the music should not be enjoyed, but it should be honored, otherwise you are not being honest, fair, and authentic, because that’s the same standard that you would hold to the Black artists who make it mainstream.
While I don’t think Justin meant anything by it personally, he did use that moment to capitalize off of it, so he is aware of the attention and payoff, as he, is opportunistic. Thus, he should be held accountable if he acts in that capacity. Otherwise, you are only trying to take away from this man’s speech. Likewise, he only used Janet to promote himself, without helping her when she had a legitimate issue at the game.
Not interested in defending Hollywood rich folks but DAMN, the man literally criticised him for tweeting the word "inspired".
I like justin. give him a break he liked the speech. come on my people lets direct our angry toward the right people. we make the best music so if I was him I would want to be like us. He should however speak out more so should alot of people. Hope one day we can be the same not there yet,but he was trying to be nice.
maaan JT didn't mean anything bad with his comment. I don't get why people mad
Nobody with a brain gets it.
I know, right?! I don't know why people are so damn uptight, geeze! A man can't say anything because then people want to start a war over it, good god!!
fr
He's white!!
@@tooniemama6959 not what he's saying, it's what he's not doing!!
👏👏👏👏👏 Thank You!! You always speak the truth!
I heard Justin Timberlake on an interview with Steve Harvey say, "Im black like you." I think "J.T. may be a "one dropper" living as all white.
You really have taken everything timberlake said out of context. You either misunderstood his statements completely, or you did what many media organizations do, and that is to "color" his words the way you want them to look.... Dont be a shill, it is easilly recognizable by anyone born before 1970
Janet Jacksons ""wardrobe malfunction""nobody believes that,do they?
I know this is an old story but running across it makes me can't stand Justin TimberFAKE even more! He is a snake.
bro your blowing out too much carbon monoxide on JT. who's to say that particular speech didn't inspire him? you have some whites that admire the black culture and music more than black folks.. so was Tina Marie a thief? what about Hall and Oats? Eminem?... so it's okay for Rick Ross, Lil Wayne, and the pranksters to say their inspired "which btw I haven't heard anything from them or a peep from them as far as standing their sellout asses up like JW.. but any ways the Wyte Boy can't be inspired. you do know when MLK marched there were INSPIRED Wyte boys and Wyte girls with him?.. oh and furthermore the crowd JW was talking to did all that clapping and still didn't get the full measage.. he was talking about them too....
I love this channel and I will continue to stay subscribed......but I have to respectfully disagree with Phil on his stance in this episode. Is this really news with a COMMON SENSE approach? I challenge Phil to stay true to the roots of what this show was supposed to be all about. Peace & Love 2 all
Stop stressing if white ppl donate. Ask black folk to donate. Artists, actors, athletes etc.
Stop worrying about others. Ask each other to stop killing, drug dealing, and stealing.
Start there. Or stay on this cycle that has lead you no where.
Phil you are so on point....Thank GOD for you.
i disagree with this vid...ive never known jt's name associated with no racial issues....this is beyond ridiculous and what i consider a reach...
yup
Exactly!!
+Ryu Panther smh bless you my brother
This is just some black people going crazy over nothing.
+Shukulo agreed... there's bigger issues to deal with rather than talk about a guy who never showed any signs of racism
Black people aren't even gonna help black people, so why are you criticizing Justin Timberlake. And Timberland is giving him the music to do, Yes he's black so take it up with him!
Think again chuck! my people dont always get along do to white people brain wasing over centuries but they will heed the call when needed! not www.people.com/article/jesse-williams-greys-anatomy-petition-bet-speech-shonda-rhimes
Camille Fedrick Yes they will come together,becauese these white supremacists are going to kill us all just about.
Make no mistake black people have virtually made all forms of rock n roll country music hip-hop r&b jazz the list goes on and on.
That punk Justin needs to be, as the kids now say, Emmitt Tilled!
what is wrong with writing "inspired"?
From what i gather it's because apparently JT has been silent in these matters...something about not defending Janet Jackson's wardrobe malfunction fiasco...and all of the sudden he tweets his '2 little 2 late' tweet which is being taken as him sort of barging in and including himself in a 'private black' moment; a moment that felt good and induced pride in the black community. So they are peeved. And i can see that point, along with his "sweet soul" being taken as condescending, but the extremeness of the backlash he got is just evidence of how racism can come full circle. While JT was a little oblivious with his comments, they were well-intentioned and meant to be an expression of solidarity. To call him a racist & HATE on him, is just what happens when activists don't check themselves and focus on division rather than unity. Alienating whites who aren't ignorant assholes is counterproductive! and how racism comes full circle. It's very disheartening & concerning because it means racism will always be a vicious cycle of blacks vs whites; like the Hatfields and Mccoys; just never ending. I have experienced this too when i speak out in solidarity with black causes on twitter. And i have ALWAYS been very vocal against ALL racism . Yet many blacks will get pissed and talk shit to me because i happen to have white skin. I had someone tell me to "save my white tears". It's fucked up.
+Sierra Jones I didn't read all of that. too long. anyways I'm black and don't understand why folks had such a problem. sometimes I think people things the wrong way.
mizzhllywd haha, ok, but you missed out on my genius ;)...which essentially spelled out that yes, it's people taking things the wrong way...
+Sierra Jones well it was long lol.
mizzhllywd
i know, but it's a complex issue and i wanted to be thorough... i skip long-winded comments to though #guilty
As-salamu Alaykum!✊✊✊✊
preach my brother, I said the same thing!!!
Amen! Brotha speaking the truth a prime example of a true "culture vulture".
Normally you sound logical and educated. To say if Justin is going to sing R&B then he Has to deal with "the struggle". What? It's a type of music. Don't try to make more of it. It's a way that he and anyone else with that talent can make a living. Nothing more. He also doesn't need to tell anyone what he was inspired to do. But you can assume that he isn't doing anything I guess out of anger. I hope these are not your true colors starting to shine through because as i said you normally sound like you have a good head on your shoulders. This isn't about a difference of opinion, what you stated was truly moronic.
I don't agree with this video. That's all I'm going to say.
yup with you on that.
yup with you on that.
yup
yup
***** Guy Faulk? Cute, but try again ma'am... and your opinion means as much to me as mine does to you so BYE
We are the same. He replied that way as a joke to all the backlash.
Justin was embarrassed/ jealous because he didn't write that speech but he can be on the radio station that plays hip hop, rap and r&b. Now black people are getting mad at Justin, Iggy,Kylie Jenner and JB because they can act black but not talk about Black issues like Jesse did.
Well Phil I guess you can probably tell by now this is one of your most disliked videos. You tripping a little bit on this one. It ain't dude responsibility to do all that.
Im not digging this one too much. Justin is a cool dude. I just feel he was giving him his props, which is completely cool. We as a black community already honestly have enough enemies. Why go creating new ones when its completely unnecessary. If we want to look at true instances of oppression? We have more than enough to pick from. Lets acknowledge our friends and work towards changing the hearts of our enemies.
Phil was right don’t be no slave to Justin
Its not up to us to try to change the heart of our enemies. Its up to them to change their own hearts. Im not turning the other cheek to get slapped again but you go right ahead.
Since they're Memphis natives, do you notice a resemblance between TimberFAKE and Elvis?
How did I miss this
I'm lost why are people mad?
USING BLACK PLATFORM BUT NEVER SPEAK ON WHATS GOING ON INNOCENT BLACK PEOPLE
Are you white?
People can't just say that someone else has inspired them without having hidden agendas? get out of here with that. JT has soul in his music.
+TheAdviseShowTV well maybe I just don't understand. but I thibk there are bigger things to worry about. so, is this about him being a liar? or about him putting his face out there without the thought to actually put actions behind their words? he's already in the limelight. it's not like he's saying things like this to become more famous. so I guess I'm just trying to understand the point behind this.
+deb davis lol. why do you say he's racist?
they culture thieves
BP have issue with everyone and everything.
Then the culture is too easy to steal. No one is else is fighting to people for stealing their culture because they have things that are more valuable.
that's not his job and he does donate money to a lot of charities.
by accusing someone like justin timberlake for being racist it undermines arguments of real cases of racism against the black community
he meant well Phil
well Phil made a good point about Justin appropriating our music.
perhaps but he didn't meant evil. stop acting like if hes supporting mercenary cops.
I get that hip hop is predominantly black, but how exactly does that make it your peoples music?
Talk is cheap
+Kung Fu Naki Are there any genres of music that you feel belongs to or culturally traces back to any race? No...none?
We aren't the same in practice but where it really matters and counts, in the eyes of the creator, we are the same. That's what ought to be our reality.
Thank you! I disliked Tank's video. Unbelievable. I appreciate you.
Jessie Williams is the Black version of Justin Timberlake-!!! THEIR TWINS !!!!!!!
This is such an unimportant thing to fuss about
Please talk about the Kanye situation. I want to know your thoughts about it.
Eminem do all the time...
He ruined Janet Jackson's Career.
Nobody thinks that they Janet Jackson's wardrobe malfunction wasn't put on for publicity stunt and it seems like with who we pick and choose who we pick on one person says the wrong thing and now he's racist we all should look in the mirror and find out who is racist know it doesn't seem to be to jumplng on one person for saying one thing everybody says stuff and it doesn't always come out right piece everybody
If you don't have anything constructive to say to help the struggle of black people just have a seat and be quiet.
Firstly all he said was inspired and everyone gets triggered and clapped out of site. He might have been inspired to take on the black plight, he might have been inspired to donate to black causes or he might have just been inspired to live a better way but did he get a chance to say his intentions before someone jumped down his throat? NO. Does he even need to justify his intentions? NO.
Secondly you say his response is condescending? what do you expect when he was replying to a stupid ridiculous tweet.
So looking at that tweet, thirdly; "apologise to Janet??" How do you know if he didn't apologise in person to Janet? plus he did apologise in public so you can't use that against him. That was yeaaaaars ago and people are still bringing it up. Janet caught the brunt of it as she was the one exposed and not him plus she's a woman living in a female image contentious society. It was bad for Janet but the backlash was not Justin's fault.
Fourthly; so anybody who is not black, needs to take on the black plight if they do music traditionally done by black musicians??? Ok good luck with that one. That is so stupid!! Anybody is literally free to do whatever they want. Thats called free will. Going by this logic then, please don't cook and sell Asian meals unless you are taking on the Asian plight. Timberland, Drake, Nicki, Flo Rida, Neyo and America please don't produce European EDM sounding tracks unless you are willing to take on the European plight.
Lastly, can we be done with "what if's" and "if it was". That kind of reasoning can't justify anything? Chris Brown beats up Rihanna and till this day still has a successful career. R.Kelly in spite of his transgressions at the time still continued his successful career. Half the rappers go to jail and come back and still have successful rap careers so you just can't say "what if"
I'll just stop there cause this is just bull
Justin who? Oh yeah forget him.
Keep it 100, Philip. I also hope you'll go off on The Blaze's resident tackhead Tomi Lahren who recently badmouthed Jesse Williams' acceptance speech @ the 2016 BET Awards.
