Harlem reacts to the Harlem Shake meme

[itsyoung!!]

what if the new term for blow job was 'the mtu wa chuma throat cum extraction' you be perfectly fine with ur name being synonymous with homosexual activities?

You are on a forum under the name Pablo Escobar with the picture of him in your profile...... its no different from the harlem shake shyt, actually its worse..

here you are trying to say people are making fun of a cultural part of a city, but you are doing the same thing with your user name and avatar

But X10000000 for people defending the honor of the OG "Harlem Shake"

Tyrone Biggums was the GOAT Harlem Shaker, btw.

.....Just watched the original video for the first time......and like most all memes, I'm just @ the fact that it got so popular. The beat is "aight" at best and sounds like any given dubstep/techno song IMO. So I ask.......why is this so popular? Seriously? I been hearing about this shyt for about 2 weeks now and I thought they were talking about that other harlem shake. But then I see this and I'm just like......:milehighflabbyness:

The thing with these meme's is that no matter how stupid or silly they are, if enough people or celebrities do it, everybody will jump on. Its the dikkriding mentality of America.

I don't know why posters are so irritated at the fact that people from Harlem were presented with a video of people doing what was called the "Harlem Shake" and were asked what their OPINION was of it. All they were told is that these were people doing the "Harlem Shake", of course they are going to react that way because they know that isn't the Harlem Shake. They are just random people on the street asked their OPINION about a video in which case you are going to get all kinds of reactions when you do that.

I think the black folks in this video have a valid gripe. This "new Harlem Shake" does not represent them and the original Harlem shake. That is the main issue. If this "new Harlem shake" was called the "Go Crazy" or "the Wild Man" or some shyt like that, there would be absolutley no issue at all. But when u attach a name to something that has already been established, then u are goin to have people that will feel some type of way.

Imagine if there was a new sport that involved say "Trampoline jumping" and they called it Football. Don't u think that Football fans would have a legitimate issue with a trampoline sport adopting a name of an established game already called football? Of course they would.

He issue is the misrepresentation of the name of "the new harlem shake"


Let's take it a step further, since a lot of cats on here love the hell out of Nas. If some white House/trance/electroinica artist caled himwelf "Noz" and his debut album totaly riped of the real Nas "it was written/Illmatic Cover" with the baby picture and all. And this album went on to sell millions of records and people were calling Noz an innovator etfc. Would Nas hip hop fans have a valid gripe or argument?

this shyt exposing all sorts of ppl on this bytch. I can tell off the reactions who's really from NYC, who's in their 20's, older or younger. If you lived through the era when harlem shaking was feverish in the city you'd understand Lol

Video of some people in Harlem's reaction to Harlem Shake and Coli posters start making statements about how black people always need something to be mad about.

Is this the Yahoo comment section?
