[Native American]

something different, I personally am getting tired of these recycled song's ov west coast artist trying to convince us about how blood/crip they are. I'm not twenty-young anymore can't be listening to songs that constantly say blood or crip affiliation.

FIRST DEGREE THE D.E.’S “LISTEN UP, YA HONKEY!” IS DEDICATED TO THE RACIST AND INSENSITIVE.

If you are a respectable, understanding, White man or woman, THANK YOU VERY MUCH! You make America proud with the understanding and compassion that you show for all, no matter the color of their skin. You are more important that you know.

Your wisdom and leadership are needed in times like these. Our president’s citizenship is questioned, because he’s Black, and to prove he doesn’t belong. Minorities can’t get home loans and White home loans have increased 300% since the crash. Inner city schools loosing funding three times faster than suburban schools, I can go on forever.

This song isn’t about respectable Whites. “Listen Up. Ya Honkey!” is to those FEW White HONKEYS AND CRACKAS that disrespect Black people because of fear.

HONKEY: A White person that hates (fears) because of race. As a result, this hate (fear) makes life harder for everyday people, a downgrade on the World.

CRACKA: A White person that makes comments and forms opinions insensitive to the plight of the minority. Whites have had QUITE the head start here in the grand ol USA .

We have come a long way as a nation. It’s hard to believe the civil war was only 150 years ago. Unfortunately, there are still leftovers of that “I’m a White person, so I’m better” mentality, stinking up the internet and social groups. Worthless honkeys!

This racial guide isn’t about fans, sales, popularity, money, or me, its about respect. However, I do hope my White fans understand why I had to do this. I had to make clear what is OK, and what is NOT OK, and I had to get folks attention. Chances are, if you are D.E. fan, you are strong-minded and this song isn’t intended for you.

“Listen Up, Ya Honkey!”, is truly about God telling me to use this new found attention (Lynch’s “Coat”, Tech’s “6s & 7s”) to deliver a message of peace, respect, and understanding the way only The D.E. could. So I did as told, as The D.E. would .

“Listen Up, Ya Honkey!” will be on the TV news, papers, and hot net sites. The message of respect will spread worldwide and the video comments will serve as a worldwide forum on race, in which I control. Lucky for the World.

Just like a cracka, some of you will take offense to my message, and “discredit the messenger” by talking bad about me. That’s what you honkeys do when you get your feelings hurt. You discredit the messenger to put your paranoid cracka peer’s minds at ease. You will actually be against respect. You will be identified as a cracka, ya cracka!


With this one song, I will gain a million fans, and a million haters. So be it.

Minority home loans are down huh?  And im sure it has nothing to do with financial status and everything to do with race....smfh.  Banks are out to make money, if you got what it takes to get a loan, ur gettin one.  I like First Degree and respect him as an artist, but that part right there is ridiculous and ignorant as shit.  PS Phonk Beta is always nice on the boards.  And yeah I listened to the song.

I notice how you avoided that "White home loans have increased 300% since the crash"........not to mention everything else !

we can bring the "BANK's" into the conversation but that would be exhausting as they're activity is protected like a NBA Officials' a$$.
a lot more things come into factor then the minority home loan part you singled out. maybe the chorus got u, i dont know. i think he was planted the seed to set the track up not write a bible.

I will never support a D.E. project again.  I thought dude was smart but he is same shit different toilet as those crackas and honkey's he speaks of.  Opportunity is here for everybody.  If you hustle in the classroom as much as you do on the streets you might find yourself in a postion to make cheddar like those honkeys he is putting on blast.  Carry yourself with some respect and digniity D.E.  You look stupid as fuck in your video and the reason white, black, or brown fail in this society is they listen and try to look like people like you.  Shit might intimidate and get you places in the street but in real life where real money and longevity is earned, you are laughed at.  Whats with bringing Eminem into it as well?  Dude didn't steal your art...He showed you how it should be done. You were on your way to being someting in the Southbound Planet Zero days but now your shit sucks!

I didnt avoid anything i said that people getting turned down for a home loan is because of financial status and not because of race.

If youre trying to use that "stat" as proof of a sign of racism than thats not really accurate because it doesnt tell us WHY they arent getting the loans.

I got turned down for credit cards before, loans, etc and Im white.  If you have a shaky financial record these banks aint giving out shit especially in this financial climate, and California is not doing well right now.

And what else did he really say?  He was talking about people questioning Obama's citizenship.  His dad was from another country, which adds fuel to the fire for people who dislike him because of his politics...he's seen as a hardcore liberal (thats pretty debatable though).  Having personal shit brought up to damage you is part of being in the White House, white black or asian.
