Never heard the song, but now that I did I found it extremely offensive.  I can't believe he would say that all white men should be percieved as a threat in today's society.  What the fuck?  He spouts off a bunch of complex definitions and conspiracy theories to try to get people to believe his points, but in the end the song is close minded and ridiculous.  I've always thought Ras Kass was a talented, intelligent, and clever MC, too bad he thinks like this.

Seriously.  I just deleted all of his music from my computer.  And its a damn shame because he's made some good songs, but I can't knowingly bump and support the music of a prejudiced asshole like that.  Merry Christmas Ras Kass, you just lost a fan.  Oh, never mind, you don't celebrate Christmas because it supports slavery.

I would do that shit too if I disagreed with it enough. I do think alot of his (and much of rap culture) thinking is ignorant but it makes me pity him rather than detest him.

Yea, ok, like Game gives a shit about white people..


And look at all of you Wiggers on here getting mad like what he was saying isn't true, haha. He's actually citing European sources, he ain't make that shit up. White people are literally mutants from the Caucus mountains who mated with Neanderthals(theory) and regressed into a sub-species of Homo sapien. Their nature is not that of the original man, in fact, they've deviated so far from human origins they are simply unstable and not to be trusted. Nothing superior about them, that's all Rass is trying to say.. Whites didn't evolve anything beneficial, these are horrible, accidental mutations.. How is this racist? It's just anthropological facts, why don't you guys debate it instead of just calling him racist and ignorant.

and you'd be so fucking offended if white people were to explicate upon such similar theories in regards to black (and such theories certainly exist), so always watch for double edged swords.
and yeah they ain't superior, but they sure are darwinistically more fit than any other beings one earth, those white people, eh? that's some undeniable shit: they rule the world like lions rule the jungle, homey.

Post by: Tanjential on December 26, 2006, 11:02:14 AM
such theories? Blacks today are at an intellectual disadvantage because blacks were bred in slave times to be big and fast and not smart. Just like chris rock talks about. that's more like an engineered deviation from initial human development but natural selection relies on deviation anyway homey, all creatures are derivative of deviation. if we didn't deviate, we'd be the same single cell organism, man!

Well i know that already that we were at a disadvantage, but I mean basically theories about Blacks like Ras Kass just had on the song but about Blacks.

I know he's citing sources, but that doesn't mean that they're facts.  I think it is racist and offensive to say that white people are inferior to black people. And I'm not gonna debate all of these anthropological facts, because I don't have any knowledge in the subject, and frankly I don't give a fuck.  I think that everyone should be treated equally in the world, and he tried to logically prove in this song that black people are superior to whites.

since blacks were the first human race they had enough time to develop on their own eh ? it's not like sience started existing by the time whites began enslaving blacks. If blacks were supoerior they woulda been able to prevent black slavery now wouldn't they.

I don't even get what you just said ???  If a white guy made a song saying "I shoot niggas" I wouldn't listen to it.  If a black man makes a song saying "I shoot niggas," he doesn't use the word in a racist form, so its not racist, its just about killing someone.  My whole problem with Ras Kass is his beliefs on Black Supremacy.

By the way, that story about 'Caucasian mutations', 'breeding with Neanderthals created white people' and all that is bullshit all around. I don't know what his or your sources were but they're way off. If you want a good start you should check out the wikipedia articles on the subject of the evolution of Homo sapiens. They are quite good and much more factual and accurate then your shitty sources will ever be.

Oh and of course, damn all racism. Black racism of white people is just as bad as any other kind. If you agree to such sentiments, whom is really inferior to whom?

The song is bs and hasn't withstood the test of time.
What kills me is that Ras knows this but wants to hold on to it aside from the more racially bigoted views.
In his recent interview with Doggie Diamonds he speaks highly of the track.
He has also said recently that he wants to do a video for it.

https://www.facebook.com/pg/Tanjint-Wiggy-Woo-138000672902387/photos/?tab=album&album_id=1164458470256597

This last Saturday I was personally invited by Abstract Rude to his birthday party at Sorrel Bistro in Temecula. At his party he held a Sixteen Bar Rap Competition in which I was invited to compete, along with 12 others. Of the 13 of us invited, I was one of three who hasn't won any of Abstract Rude's regional or main Los Angeles' Sixteen Bar Rap Competitions before but I have competed in 3 before and have made it to the semi-finals. Ab Rude invited me because I had done well at these previous SBRCs.

Anyway, at this one the 4 judges were Ellay Khule/Rifelman, Abstract Rude, MC Ducer and Ras Kass. I got to round 2 of 4. Ras Kass gave me maaaad props and chatted with me for a cool minute afterwards, I talked to him about growing up on his work and what my band does and gave him my card. I also got mad props from Rifleman and got an awesome pep talk from Ab Rude before the contest.

The goal is to take the gold at the next one in April at the Flow & Tell Festival where Scarub is one of the judges instead of Kass and Khule.
