DUBCC - Tha Connection > Outbound Connection

Racism evident in Cam'ron's music

--- Quote ---I'm shocked y'all... I was recently bumping Cam's new album, and I would have said it was pretty tight. But my opinion changed when I heard these lines from track 4, called "Live My Life" featuring Daz. Read this:


"I'll be damned if I work for some white cracker (shit)
White batter, prize in the pack, fiends love
They hug it, call it Cracker Jacks, KILLA
Where the crack is at, watch me get dem dice
Throw 'em on, let me live my life"


Obscene, discriminating lyrics... it's like Eminem would have said "Fuckin' nigga" in his raps, totally unacceptable... I suggest nobody here buy this Cam'ron album ( which I regret to have:(), or even better, don't support him at all... abandon his music. At least that's what I've done.

Peace

"Y'all tellin me that I need to get out and vote, huh. Why?
Ain't nobody black runnin but crackers, so, why I got to register?" - Andre 3000

I checked just to make sure, that's what he says.

I don't really take offense, even at snoop's comment.  

=[Euthanasia]=:
Yeah, racism is fucked up, period. I hate all types of racism, it sickens me to think that it's still evident these days but thats just the way it is. Look at 2Pac, he said quite alot of racist things towards whites in his music and in interviews, but it was aimed mostly at the white supremists and the rich white folk that often misunderstood young black people and the whole hip-hop culture. I wouldn't take it personally because in many cases the artists that once made those racist comments (Cube, 'Pac, Snoop etc) grew up and now have friendships with white people. People who grow up around racist people only know of the social stereotypes of different races, but I think we all know that stereotypes are worthless, it's about the person not the colour.

i dont take offense 2 it either...i jus thinks its really fuckin hypocrtical

Trauma-san:
Yea, I feel the same way, it's hypocritical, but just like a black guy can't be president, a white guy's gonna get called a cracker, and it'll be alright in most people's eyes.
