Don't turn this into a fuckin' Diana Ross thread! OK? Thank you!

But, you meant it some of the time, right?

Kam,

Just because Deen is a product of the south cannot excuse her behavior, and I believe she could probably have used the "n" word as recent as yesterday.

I can't say if she's a racist, but...

Old news, actually. In 1979, when Nile Rodgers and Bernard Edwards heard "Rapper's Delight" and wanted to sue the Robinsons for ripping off "Good Times" and not giving them songwriting credit, they...

First, of all, if you look at the title of that song, and listen to the lyrics, he is NOT proclaiming himself god. The title of that song is "I Am A God" , not "I Am God".

Second: I did listen to...

I never saw any of them. I just remember that it seemed rap, as we first knew it, was unraveling in the mid-80s when Sugarhill stopped producing records. Grandmaster Melle Mel (He legally couldn't...

And, for the U.S. customers:

I was a senior in high school in 1979 when "Rappers Delight" hit. It was wildly popular. The pastime used to be trying to rap the entire fifteen or so minutes of the record. Sugarhill Records had...

Lesson: pay your artists, don't live beyond your means, and stay away from the mob.

I was born in the early 60s, but, for the most part, I am glad the time has come where men can truly start just being themselves, and damn whatever anyone else thinks. We really don't have to live...

I can't do just five.

I My father was a huge Impressions fan when I was a little tyke. He used to tape all of their albums on his reel-to-reel deck. I still have the first four ABC-Paramount albums plus the greatest...

Why are there two threads about this? What was wrong with the first one?

The definition of masculinity is changing, though. Problem is, I live in a very red state, and, like everything else, the red states are lagging behind the rest of the first world. In other words,...

http://youtu.be/8iwZ68VH8QgThe song that was playing as I got out of the car a few minutes ago was "Keep On Lovin' Me" by Johnie Taylor.

I guess I gave up my man card when I proudly admitted that I don't follow any sports. I don't even watch the Stupid...er...Super Bowl.

No, you didn't stir me up, but I have met so many people...

David was in when they got the contract with Motown, wasn't he?

That's right! I used to work graveyards unloading trucks. The main reason I got into them was because my mother had me tape them while she was at work. Then I got into them.

When you think...

Yeah. I have since the mid-80s. My mother and father did too. Never miss an episode. Gotta problem with it?

The commercial is now running on CBS during The Young And The Restless, at least. Let's see if CBS gets any backlash, and if they will cower to the racists.

Some butts can be too big!

If they are really cute and aren't religious, all good for me.

Just going by your words, I can tell you are immersed in urban or Black culture. I am not, and have never been. The best I can do to stay abreast of what the mindset is, is to read The Grio, and...

Thanks, Jerry. You nailed it. But, I don't have a cause, i'm just stating what works for me.

We all choose what we are comfortable with.

Most talk about multi-culturalism, but what about...

Hey, man, please re-read what I wrote. No where did I say that she should be white.

No, I never had a relationship with a Black woman. I dated one in high school, but it didn't work because of...
