Don't try to qualify it now. I said the same thing for the last page and half and you've been beating your chest about the 3 main tribes. SO I reworded and that's all you have to say.
Would a Dominican be lost in Nigeria (all areas) yes or no. You can go anywhere and find similarities but you're arguing on the side that specifically said there's a DIRECT link. A direct link isn't a few similiarities - if you can't admit that then I won't respond to you and you take whatever Victory from this conversation to appease you.
YOur statement is back tracking but then you beat your chest about going toNigeria - does that support the point of the arguement?? NO, it doesnt but you continue to do it. Strawman fallacy!
Where is the backtracking? I didn't ever take position on what was said by Azealia Banks, so I am unsure why you ask asking me to take a position now. You used Nigeria as an example, that is why I questioned you (If I might add, a question you haven't answered). Whilst you are at, stop spelling similarities incorrectly, it irks me.

breh, I'm not proofreading for you. Good I'm glad it irks you, you irk me asking me personal shyt every post.
Breh, if you didn't have a position why would you come in here asking me questions. PM if you wanna get personal info - so I can tell you to u to fukk off. You derailed and wasted my time for 2 pages and don't even know what the argument is.
Like I said, you just came in here trying to beat your chest regarding the 3 main tribes , which has nothing to do with or disproves what I've stated. Troll!
Tell me one thing I said incorrect - quote one thing.
You used Nigeria as an example, that's why.
Weirdo.
Good.
False.
Who's beating their chest? You used the term "Nigerian culture" and cited it as an example. It is bizarre because it does not exist. That is why I questioned you. Instead of admitting you were wrong for using it as an example, you decided to double down (making yourself look foolish).
I feel like I am being trolled.

I didn't use the phrase "NIgerian Culture" in the initial post you resonded to. I use it later as a collective - there is a such thing as nigerian culture, which is collectively the several different cultures. American culture isn't homoegenous either, neither his nigerian culture.
You're playing a game of semantics to make you seem like you're right and you weren't. Now trying to twist the argument into some semantical b.s.
This is true.
This isn't true, you only acknowledge that after me pointing out that it didn't exist.

You are correct about American culture not being homogenous but there are things that are culturally American, the same cannot be said for Nigeria.
You began the games when you were asked you a simple question you refused to answer.

Nigeria has a culture and it's heterogenous, each othose ethnic tribes makes up Nigeria's culture as a collective - don't be thick headed.
You responded to me when I did not use "Nigeria Culture" and only nit picked it because you had nothing else to try to engage me on.
you have no idea what your'e talking about , if when you're right (3 ethnic tribes in NIgeria) - you're wrong (there's no such thing as NIgerian Culture). No different than American Culture which is also heterogeneous.
Will you stop or are you going to challenge the definitions of Cultural heterogeneity too?

She got mad that her album isn't selling, and somehow blamed Action Bronson for being a culture vulture
Despite differences, America is still united as one America and there is an American culture, values and ect.. The main thing (some would argue the only) that unites Nigerians is they live in the federal republic of Nigeria. The North want their own state (Hausa and Fulani) and at a time the Igbos wanted their own state (some still do, see Biafra). There is a political power struggle (regions take it in turn for presidency, meaning one tribe has a president for 1 or 2 terms and then presidency is allocated to another tribe). Tribes act in their own interests, Yar'Adua died a few years ago and the vice president became president (Jonathan).
That's one of the main reason you have been hearing more from Boko Haram these last few years, the North feels like it didn't get theirs. My point is there isn't a Nigerian culture, it is just a group of people living together as consequence of the partitioning of Africa.

At the end of the day, Azealia is an artist and she's sensitive about her shyt.
Her and Nicki are similar because they are confident in their talents and feel like as black women they have to fight for their right to be heard and to maintain creative control. Where as a man is seen as assertive and a boss, a women doing the same is mostly seen as bossy and a bytch. Some women overcompensate and see arrogance and bytchiness as a way to get respect.
Then both are NY girls and NY culture is full of arrogance, dissing and being loud and opinionated. I think the difference between them is Nicki is in the game for the money and fame and Azealia is in it for her art and to perform.
Azealia has no filter/ no chill and uses twitter to voice her opinions. She loves the interaction. I don't think she is trying to be labeled a militant or anything. This is just whats on her mind.
Also, Azealia fought for her rights and control, which is what got her dropped from her label but she is better for it. People do know her. She's been touring for the pass couple years and has a net worth of $3M. She's pretty much an independent artist and can afford to say the things she says.

Oh look, another thread about Azealia's twitter rather than her music. Action went in though.
