most of these black feminists love jay, they always looking the other way when he say dumb isht. if wayne or one of these southern rappers had said it, we would never hear the end of it. would be boycotting.

While you do have a point, I think people are smart enough to understand the lyrics of beating the p*ssy up like Ike and eatin the cake, taking a rather abusive(and humorous in it's absurdity) moment and making it sexual. Cake being considered p*ssy nowadays.

There's just nothing sexual about Emmitt Till and referring to vagina. How does your thought process even connect the two? When I think of Emmitt Till I think racism and brutality. When I think of Ike and Tina, I think of Morpheus and Katherine Jackson. Ike and Tina's abuse is so far removed from the public mindset it only exists in a movie. Emmitt's death will never be forgiven and never have any place in music outside of "fukk, white people" following it. I could be a little bit of a Jay and Yonce' stan though

thanks for a serious reply.

still, to me, ike turner is known as a brutal woman beater. that has overshadowed his great musical legacy. and i dont neccesarily care about the line, just looking for consistency from the outrage brigade.

I understand. Fair or not Lil Wayne is much more visible musically. He's had a target on his back for a while. "bytch look betta red" really made people with black women. With all the the hate Jay gets it's more his actions and inaction then his lyrics.
