Hmmm...I got nothin but praise n daps from da black folks I encountered all throughout mah life and eam nikkas on mah block for mah art shyt and stayin outta surrus trouble.

I had homies on da block dat were slangin n bangin but dey knew I wasn't down wit dat shyt & about mah art grind and dey respected it and looked out for a nikka. :yeshrug:

Eam had a homie once jack a shyt load of random art supplies once and gave it to me so I could do somethin nice for his moms for mother's day. Dead ass. :mjlol:

No kid is being forced to hide his genius anywhere. Youre such a scumbag.
sorry but you're \EXTREMELY out of touch. Kids pretend to be something their not ALL THE TIME. Ive seen it firsthand. Cant remember the poster name but he was saying how he used to "dumb" himself down purposely to make himself seem like somebody he wasn't when he was in school. I worked in a youth detention center for 2 years and i had numerous kids confide in me how they had to "hide their intelligence" to seem more down to the homies. It happens quite often. Log off sometime and gain a sense of the real world.

Amongst black people?

Like i think about it and its depressing. Amongst every other race of people the best and brightest are held in the highest regard...when it comes to blacl folks our best qnd brightest are ridiculed, tormented, ostracized for not being "black enough" because i guess intellectualism is something that black folks dont possess, and basically led to be loners and outcasts.

shyt...even look at how damn near every nikka jocking basquiat now cause jay z mentioned him in a verse...guaranteed that dude did not have any sort of black fanbase or following when he was alive. It makes me smh and just :mjcry: at the same time. It usually takes outsiders before black folks recognize greatness amongst our own outside of sports and entertainment and frankly im fukking sick of it.

Oooh... @No_bammer_weed negged me. Oh my god...what am going to do? Its a tragedy!

My thread obviously gettng under people's skin cause ive lived it as a suburban bred black male in the country. Some of you really dont want to hear it and thats alright...whatever.

But the fact of the matter is when we do have exceptional black talents, like a scientist, like a figure skater, like a golfer, like a dj, like whatever outside of the atypical realms that dominate black culture...black people the last people to support them.

I make techno and dj...before i used to get ridiculed for playing "white people music" without even recognizing that house techno etc came and originated from the black community. Even on here...you got people that refer to anything with a house beat as "euro"...:why:what type of BS is that? Black folks still will support techno and house and whatever in bigger cities...but i bet you amongst those not really in the know they're automaticly going to associate with gay white europeans.

shyt go to any edm festival...you can count the number of black people there on one hand and all of these chicago and detroit legends are playing to predominantly white crowds.

It's crazy because I'm from and stay in the hood and I go to a local university. I get more respect from non-blacks on campus than I do from blacks in my hood with exception to the OGs. Misery loves company homies. That's why I'm in the gym every night. nikkas trying to squabble out here:wow:
