Remy Ma and Denzel Washington

Royals Opinion: Remy looks Nigerian....I love her Voice and Face... Her eyes are so southwest Naija, I smell Lagos funk all in her VaJina

Denzel looks like some Mandinka mixture...similar to morgan freeman ...Elongated heads..definitely sahel region brothers

~Royal~:
Curious to know, what do people think or see when certain Blacks Images are shown.

What is the first Ethnic group or Region that Comes to Mind when analyzing their Features.

So I will Post Various Images of Blacks in the New World.....And Give my opinion on where their blood could possibly be from.

Obviously this is just a random guessing game, no one can be right or wrong..But i just want to see if people see what i see.

First Up... Michael Jordan and Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce

Royal's Opinion : Michael Jordan Definitely Looks like he's some mixture of Wolof and Mandinka, SeneGambian Region.

Shelly Ann Looks like she has some Akan Blood in her, Facial Features and Body Type are Very Ghana Like.(Maybe an Ashanti Queen?)


















True!
Jordan looks very Senegambia/Mali and I see a lil bit of Akan in him
Shelly-Ann's face screams GHANAAAA! smiley
Re: ~~~~Blacks Of The New World~Trace Their Blood~~~~ by Nobody: 6:11am On Aug 07, 2012
Spike Lee, well he could be anything
50 make me think of Chamillionaire for some reason, so I think Nigeria
Flava-Southwest Ghana
Snoop: Fula/Akan mix
Kevin Garnett need to take a trip to Senegambia grin
Denzel: Akan/european, cant see anything else
Eddie Murphy make me think coastal CIV but can be any west from the coast
Whitaker: Igbo?
omar epps: very very yoruba like, could pass ghana tho
Will smith: yoruba/fula/niger republic
Mo'Nique: Liberia straight up
Lebron, who the hell knows lool, maybe Angola-Congo
Wayan Brothers-Nigeria
And yes, MJ looks definitely Akan
Re: ~~~~Blacks Of The New World~Trace Their Blood~~~~ by Nobody: 6:25am On Aug 07, 2012

Spike Lee - Mixed Nigerian ethnic groups
Flava Flav - Whirlwind Coast/Senegambian
50 Cent - Lower Guinea Coast combined with Mali
Snoop - Fula and Akan
Kevin Garnett - Senegambian
Denzel - Looks "Griffe"! I can't really place him. He looks like a West Sudanian Savanna phenotype mix!
Eddie Murphy - Unmixed Hausa from the Niger Republic mainly combined with Akan, Senegambian, Malian etc.
Forest Whitaker - A West and West Central African mixed mutt! LOL
Omar Epps - Yoruba
Will Smith - A West African mixed mutt
Monique - I can't really place her!
Lebron - A West and West Central African mixed mutt!
Wayans Bros - All over Nigeria
MJ (before he turned white) - Akan, Igbo and Mbundu (Angolan)

But wirlwind coast was West Ivory Coast and Liberia, and never in my life i've seen a western ivorian with flav's phenotype. Maybe southeastern when going toward ghana with the akye, anyi, n'zema (very likely), fanti, so southern akan but west (windward coast)? i don't think so. The likes of Moni'nique, Maya Angelou, Tyrese, Robin Givens and Oprah look east-liberian and western civ, those who are probably from other regions and could pass for windward: spike lee, 50, tyson (the boxer), trey songz, shelly ann lil bit.......
A few western ivorians (windward coast), no mixed race included

Man, Ivorian women are hot! I'm glad you didn't put Liberians. Liberians aren't all that good looking! And people say that the Ghanaian Akan have big noses. I'm not dissing Ivorians.
The Hausa have a phenotype that can fit into most places in West Africa IMO.

There is a Lot of Variety, but one that is not common is His, They slant down on the outer edges.

That's not Common for West African Blacks.

It's not really about "What look do West African Eyes Have"

It's a question of "What Eyes West Africans Don't Have"....

Good example of my comment would be..."She does not really have a West African Nose"....
