Lord Jamar: Rihanna Shouldn't Disrespect TLC

[Danie84]

These young fukks have no respect for the people who came before them, but one day they'll learn

[TELL ME YA CHEESIN FAM?]

so this nikka's career has been reduced to this?



where Puba at?

The reason why I respect older RnB female artist is because they did cover up, it left a young male roaming in his imagination. The suspense and imagination kept us glued to whatever they did.

Just them dancing in Waterfalls is sexier than anything Rihanna has done in regards to classy sexiness. I browse online and it's nearly a million women showing their bodies but ultimately it leads no nothing. They aren't cakin' like that off their physical alone period. And a lot of em' stop just at that..pictures on the internet. Rihanna is puttin' herself in a whole where its classic radio hits, black eyed up turnt fake smut......a lot of celebs cape for her because she is "cool" well shyt nikka that ain't nothin special most of the coolest chicks i knew were smuts

You can't save Rihanna or any artist like her. TLC probably was just saying for up and coming artist you don't HAVE to go that route to get what you want. And if you do go.... ahead. Getting naked to just make it simple is a faster route to success if you have enough of whatever to back it up, but the tortoise wins the race so hold dat shyt

This is what's wrong with American culture. The obsession with youth and disregard for one's elders.

nvm TLC and Rihanna cause i dont know whats good there but man Lord Jamar saying some real shyt. Why resort to the petty name calling and disrespect

 

[Ohene]

TLC did not diss Rihanna per-say.

Rihanna has caught feelings.

Lord Jamar spoke nothing but the truth. Especially when he broke down how the youth blocks elders from giving them knowledge by calling them old, broke, flabby and sick. All that is doing is disconnecting the youth from the elders.

its fukked up but thats what happens when youre so high on the totem pole and everyone's below you i guess.

I''m sure you and I've always been one to soak up game from elders and truth be told I'm sure when Rihanna was young in the game (Pon de replay era) she probably would've too. Money brings out a persons true colors though

c/s

and u see since the 70's how black artist continue to get fukked over and over on contracts cause nikkas don't want to listen to the older artist who try to tell them about contracts... it's like " fukk YOU OLD nikkaS, I KNOW THE BUSINESS WAY MORE THAN U DO NOW AND I REFUSE TO GET fukk " 3 years later it's " I SHOULD HAVE LISTEN TO THE OLDER HEADS, BU I THOUGHT I KNEW EVERYTHING " and this shyt happens every fukking day to black people and we don't even learn from it

Man its crazy the discussion that you all are generating right now. My brother and I have an idea that combats JUST THIS. I'm afraid we wont move fast enough though

tlc and jamar need to shut the fukk up and leave the whore alone.

I hate when black people do this shyt, we are not all responsible for each other. You think all white people and artists feel responsible for Miley Cyrus or Gaga? No they fukking dont. Rihanna has her own lane, her music isnt comparable to TLC's, she makes strictly club music. I could compare her to Gaga easier than I could to them, so they shouldnt be speaking on her period

This is like Will Smith getting on rappers for cursing. TLC didnt have to act like whores to sell, GOOD FOR THEM.
That doesnt mean everybody can or needs to try

i agree with this
