Lionel Ritchie on Kanye's Brit performance: I Don't Think It's OK for a Black Man to Use the N-Word

[Premeditated]

He doesn't even like Black Women...

I'm pretty sure his current girlfriend is black, but imma let you cook though.

I am positive Bro... nikka or even ****** is laughable at best as a derogatory word now because we embraced it. It is a made up fukking word...if you believe it means ignorant then you also shold believe it means King from the 13th sun meaning...you smack people based on their disrespect...not their words.

 

[Onlooker]

Old head doesn't know it's been this way for decades now. He clearly has
no contact with black people. This is phony as hell.

More black celebrities saying things to appease white people, nothing new here.

 

[TRY GOD]

Dude's can't even just disagree. They gotta call him all types of bullshyt as if his life has been peachy and all he does is kiss white ass. The biggest problem with this generation is they have all the answers. They don't even take the words of the elders into consideration before telling them how wrong they are.

the elders are why black america is in the situation we are in. they failed us.

 

[Kitsch]

Neither does Lipstick alley

 

[Higher Tech]

the elders are why black america is in the situation we are in. they failed us.

Whatever dog.

 

[KOohbt]

Brehs saying nikka has been the norm for decades. Don't be dense y'all.

 

[blackestofpanthers]

Now we're shytting on Lionel Richie? Yall really are the lost generation.

Which generation does chris tucker belong to?

 

[KOohbt]

Whatever dog.

Point out what they did to set us up for success. Collectively.

I'll wait. Not really cause I'll die waiting for that answer.

 

[Cat piss martini]

Kanye or Lionel Richie?

thread/

 

[TRY GOD]

Whatever dog.

Am I wrong? What did they make or leave for us?

 

[RebelX]

i agree the use of the "N"-word on the song was way too much. too much shock value with this dude


but he probably lost his shyt when ye' said that "the light skin we in the house"line. Also i don't think brits really get down like that...it was too much for them to handle. there not used to artist like that or black folks like that

That was the point...

 

[I love Latina women]

how his new wife looking like..u gonna post his white kids

damn shame y'all playin' lionel this but i guess that's this new generation and the way of the world now. no respect and zero fukks given

he has no "new wife". last time i checked lionel won't married. but if by his "new wife" you mean his last ex wife, this is her

smh at goin' at his kids now. yeah, he's got kids that are mixed and? they still human beings and are no different than anyone else

nicole richie is his adopted daughter. nicole richie is actually peter michael escovedo, a musician (sheila e's brother) and karen moss (sheila e's executive assistant) biological daughter. it's been said that both peter and karen didn't think they could financially provide for her so they trusted that he and his then wife brenda could provide for her a lot better than they could, so lionel and brenda adopted nicole

 

[Sk3ptical]

I will interpret for those who are slow... Lionel said, "Kanye has to start behaving if he want's to be accepted. He gotta stop saying words or he is no good..and he wonder why they don't like black people"

ol i want to be accepted by the cacs

Am I wrong? What did they make or leave for us?
