omar22:O come on man. We all know it's the same person. komokam:I'm waiting for wynton dive headlong into some sort of jazz fusion. Should be good. |
[quote author=oyinda. link=topic=313544.msg4405394#msg4405394 date=1251023217]fine i'll check coltrane n the miles davis guy out but you should start listening to some nigerian music as well. with the exception of that nigerian blood in you, your not nigerian at all what ethnic group are your parents?[/quote]Ok, I will. Kind of Blue is the album you should check out. And I really don't know, I gotta ask my parents on that one. |
THE AMAKA:Well it's not like I'm openly accepted by "my people". And it seems to me you are still scarred from what AA's did to you in the past. I wish you grew up where I did, honestly. |
[quote author=oyinda. link=topic=313544.msg4405384#msg4405384 date=1251022910]haha the closest to jazz i listen to is kenny g or similar instrumentalists like that.[/quote]lol kenny g. I mean he's ok but no where near Coltrane. |
[quote author=oyinda. link=topic=313544.msg4405357#msg4405357 date=1251022314]rotflmao. the best response from u so far! same way you can't compare p-square and styl-plus to the classics like fela, lagbaja, KSA, sunny okosun etc or even the yoruba music and other ethnic music. the popular mainstream youth culture music are usually considered garbage even though i enjoy naija's mainstream music. like stylplus etc i can't stand hip hop[/quote]Trust me Jazz is spiritual. Miles Davis's-Flamenco Sketches is out of this world. |
komokam:Illmatic and Breaking Atoms albums are good, really good. |
THE AMAKA:What rubbish? |
[quote author=oyinda. link=topic=313544.msg4405345#msg4405345 date=1251022098]you see. that's the difference! most nigerians born here have proper naija parents so they were pretty much brought up in the nigerian way and with nigerian culture. that's why they associate more with nigeria than with US. i kinda understand where your coming from though but seriously though i hope my kids don't grow up like u |
komokam:Well hip hop sucks period. But the Jazz is great. John Coltrane and Miles Davis, I could listen to them all year. |
[quote author=oyinda. link=topic=313544.msg4405327#msg4405327 date=1251021783]oh wow. u've never been there sef ![]() houston has a huge nigerian community as far as i'm concerned. and you never got any influences?[/quote]Nope. Well I did go to a nigerian restaurant on bissonet. THE AMAKA:No, well not yet. |
THE AMAKA:According to you I'm an AA. |
[quote author=oyinda. link=topic=313544.msg4405314#msg4405314 date=1251021550]u sure your parents are nigerian? and you were never exposed to nigerian culture? what did u eat in your house? what language do they speak in? what parties did you attend as a young child? what values did they instill in you you? u mean u didn't grow up with any nigerian influences whatsoever? heck what names do you have? ![]() or were your parents born here or what?[/quote]That's it, you got it. My parents have been here since they were young. |
I might have to vist nigeria one day. |
THE AMAKA:Hmmm, I thought this was a Akata vs Nigerian thread? |
[quote author=oyinda. link=topic=313544.msg4405290#msg4405290 date=1251020900]yea i would check the same box. but how lame is the box? the difference between AA and africans is just as great (or even greater) than the one between AA and latino. they have different boxes don't they? i'm sure it is. u must not have nigerian names for u to tell me AAs were always friendly with you. lol because i'm sure almost every nigerian (even ones born here) have had some cultural difference beef with AAs at some point in time in their lives.[/quote]Yep, american culture is different. For better or worse. The 4 aforementioned ones, yes. I was around AA's who didn't insult africans or anyone. I was never exposed to nigerian culture, hence why I really never had a "beef" with them. |
komokam:O man. |
komokam:Are you AA? |
[quote author=oyinda. link=topic=313544.msg4405239#msg4405239 date=1251019996]well good for you. AAs were nice to you because duh your one of them. i bet your name is lebron jackson or something like that too.[/quote]You'll check the same box I would. Ok, and if it were? |
[quote author=oyinda. link=topic=313544.msg4405221#msg4405221 date=1251019601]amaka doesn't need to embrace the akatas. she has her own story about growing up with them and the hatred they had towards her for being african @ school and such. to me she is just as nigerian as any younger immigrant nigerian. and went through exactly the same situations lol so no. she's not african american. and there are african americans that i like. just that most are usually annoying and ignorant.[/quote]I know she doesn't. Look at her comments lol. See that's it. I can count 4 people total who have ever bothered me for being nigerian. AA's have always showed me love, thats my experience with them. |
C2H5OH:It's been a long night. |
[quote author=oyinda. link=topic=313544.msg4405182#msg4405182 date=1251018936]u know i was being nice n genuine with u up until the time u decided to start spewing rubbish about nigerians. what did u expect? for us to give u a back rub? ![]() your out of your mind i tell u[/quote]What am I suppose to say? I have good friends that are AA's. I don't insult them they don't insult me. THE AMAKA:But aren't you a so called "african american"? Unlike you guys I don't embrace the stigma around "akatas". You might not like them but I do. And this guy is a troll, so why would I defend stupid comments? |
THE AMAKA:I'm not going too. I never said I hated myself did I? I guess if I lived around a bunch of poor nigerians I would be able to debate you. |
[quote author=oyinda. link=topic=313544.msg4405166#msg4405166 date=1251018707]no it doesn't go both ways. being african and african american are two totally different things. and if the virtue of being black doesn't apply, u will say by "virtue of being human". so your point is lame.[/quote]It does, you guys harbor alot off animosity towards them and they towards you. I'm witnessing now. SMH. If akata was removed and replaced with cuban this thread would've gotten this far. |
C2H5OH:Tell that to the AA's i live next too. My friend the same can be said about africans. Just differently. |
THE AMAKA:Well this thread tells me one thing, Nigerians dislike AA's. I knew it. lol I knew it. |
[quote author=oyinda. link=topic=313544.msg4405128#msg4405128 date=1251018228]that is totally believable my friend. but just stop dissing nigeria. makes you sound like a youknowwhat [/quote]It goes both ways. Call me anything you want, By virtue of you being black it's laughable.THE AMAKA:Like you I'm on this forum to chat with nigerians. |
C2H5OH:Just call Usain Bolt, he can help. |
C2H5OH:I was aking you? |
[quote author=oyinda. link=topic=313544.msg4405106#msg4405106 date=1251017919]so nigger. . . no suh lol but seriously though u're being very annoying[/quote]As you are. I'm Nigerian by blood. What you can't believe that? |
C2H5OH:And why was there tension? |
[quote author=oyinda. link=topic=313544.msg4405075#msg4405075 date=1251017443]stop being cryptic with me. are you an akata or nigerian?[/quote]Nigerian by blood. Akata? Please don't tell me that's the name you use for AA's. Nigger would do just fine. "you just said you are african american, that means, GOODBYE!!" Like you miss nigeria 2009 I DONT GO AROUND SCREAMING NAIJA THIS AND THAT!!! |
C2H5OH:Ethnic tension? Come on. No2Atheism:Wrong guy. [quote author=oyinda. link=topic=313544.msg4405067#msg4405067 date=1251017322]3spade your being very passive aggressive and it's annoying! quit it ![]() your worse than malikom even [/quote]No i'm not. |
