TRAYVON TRUTHS pt 3
I
love the whitest white people and the blackest black people. Ya'll know,
we hung out, partied, drank.smoked, talked and helped one another. Some
of the BEST friends I ever had ARE White. The truth is the TRUTH no
matter what! Black people defend everyone and wrong is wrong, since our
ancestors were slaves. White women talked to black housemaids when they
husbands were beating they ass. But I just
feel bad when white people turn they back when something happens to
black people, like we deserve that shit. We don't think white people or
anyone deserves to be Killed, Raped, Abused, Molested. Even if you don't
do if yourself, If you defending Zimmerman, you condone it. I'ma be
done soon. I just saw news reports, comments, and the case itself these
last few days, and I just couldn't take it!
TRAYVON TRUTHS pt 2
TRAYVON!
This is one example of a problem that continues everyday! This is just
one case! There have been 10 or more publicized examples of Black
blatantly murdered by fairer skinned races since Trayvon and nothing
happens. Its just funny that SOME, not ALL, but a large SOME non-blacks
come out and seem to always defend the person who killed a BLACK person.
Like its in they DNA from slavery days. YA'LL KNOW that shit is DEAD
WRONG! Then they try to cite the .0005% example of a Black person who
killed somebody white. GET THE FUCK OUTTA HERE WITH THAT SHIT! If we
keepin SCORE ya'll DEFINITELY gonna LOSE!
TRAYVONS TRUTHS pt 1. Vick got 18 months for dogs!
Remember!
Vick for 3 to 6 for killing a dog! You can kill a Nigger and Get
famous! Anyone who defends Zimmerman is saying we are still NIGGERS and
anyone with fairer skin can kill us with No consequence! We less than
Dogs! You scared to say it but I ain't. #FUCKIT #WESTILLNIGGERS #BLACKLIFELESSTHANDOGS #REALSHIT

For the Love of Hip Hop Music - MCFC Series 1 pt 1
Can hip hop music include love of oneself, ethnic background, community, family, or education and still thrive in today’s commercial market? Some would say no. Actually most would say no. People today seem to give more thought to what color shoes they would like to wear than who and what they Love. Even in its most popular urban form, Hip Hop, LOVE is as taboo as searching adult sites at work. Both can end your career before it ever even starts. In fact, when asked how they felt about the L word, 4 out of 5 artists said they would love to use “love” in their music but no one would listen if they did. The artist, “Seven da Pantha” stated, “I am what I consider a real emcee. I hold hip hop in the highest regard and give it the utmost respect. Violence, for some reason, is a preferred topic in hip-hop. As a father and leader of a household, I try to be a strong, firm example for my seeds. I always express my love and affection for my wife and children. In my craft though, I rarely feel it appropriate to express my love over a track, although I do proudly. I can talk about self defense with fire-arms and its ok though. The hip hop community as a whole seems to dislike love. Even non hardcore emcees don’t particularly support songs about love. It’s crazy.”
What do you think?
