its also funny how you totally ignored the best music thread as well. Knowing caribbeans would get their @ss handed to them lmao Just an observation

Crayola1:
Okay. So what's next?
I'm Black American/African American and I find you hilarious like your thread on Lipstick Alley, really dude. If you the Best it goes without saying in my opinion

Whats your member name on that site? Oh and everything i've said was true here and on lsa

And to A6-

You learned that in history class? Give me a break. If blacks have invented more than how are we only entertainment. Our biggest contribution the the diaspora overall, is the fact that a black culture and black influential figures whether they be entertainers or not- Are showing black people in global culture in a way that africa and the caribbean is not

You are in no way knowledgable about history. Werent you the one that said 70% of civil rights leaders were caribbean. lol. More like 7% lol

A black american telling a Nigerian to get out of a Nigerian fourm, LOL, what a joke

In a Nigerian forum, I think you should take that advise and GTFOH because you are the delusional black american to be going on a nigerian forum and criticize Nigerians or africans on issues we don't care for.

All the other stuff you are saying is irrelevant, I don't care; if it makes you feel better make yourself a award. You talk as if black americans are the kings & Queens of the Black race because your music is admired worldwide and africans should bow down to you guys and we don't, is it by force?.  GET OVER YOURSELF


I think you are blind or have hard time reading because this is what I said about about black american entertainers like Jay-Z and beyonce because of their music they will get admiration but a regular african american that is not a entertaineer no, LEARN HOW TO READ because you just played yourself
I guess it is hard for you to tell the difference when somebody says a African american entertaineer(like Jay-Z, beyonce, and etc) is admired vs. a regular african american person that is not

If you dont care for black american issues than why are you so knowledgeable about them? When i said blacks have done more in the past 100 years, i wasnt talking about entertainment. Stop thinking all we are is entertainment. Black americans have created a culture more relevant than african culture worldwide. We have made more inventions, or have had a hand in more inventions/innovations than africa in the past century. The only reason a black face can have worldwide notoriety is because of black americans. Your hatred for black americans as an african is delusional

GTFOH this is why i say africans are delusional.

Black americans and africans have separate lanes that much is true. But black america has done more in the last 100 years to "uplift the black man and women through out the diaspora" than any other african group. Much of africas praise comes from black america in the western world at the same time. All the ills you accuse the black american community of having is worst tenfold in africa. The only reason africans can break bread in the first place is because of black americans hardwork. Without the efforts of black america the diaspora would be looking crazy right now. True story

And your lying to yourself if africans only see dollar signs when it comes to black american entertainers. Dont play yourself

Absolutely.
In everything it's been remixed in the states. America is not just a melting pot interracially speaking but also within the races. African American culture is no exception. Doug E Fresh was born in Barbados for instance and his superior beat boxing skills are definitely attributed to his cultural roots in the caribbean where drum beats and rhythm syles brought in from Africa is evident and highly influential.  From music to dance, American black culture is a fusion and mix of all black ethnicities. A lot of black Americans have this 'superiority' mentality and end up shocked when their activists, actors, musicians, dancers; etc are actually Caribbean and/or African in origin. The ability for Africans and Caribbeans to assimilate to the American way is largely due to our similarities as a race as opposed to our differences. This is undeniable.

The beatbox in the context of hip hop, like almost everything else, started in the states. Doug e fresh got his skills from harlem not barbados lol.


The dominating black culture in the us stems from the descendants of slaves here in the US. Most political,social,civil rights cultural etc figures are american descendants of slaves. Sure you have so called "caribbeans" here and there. But the fact is the overwhelming majority are americans. And americans are more relevant period


Most that were successful anyway completley absorbed themselves into african american culture anyway. Just like obama

From harriet tubman to mlk and all the americans inbetween- carribeans are not on our level

This song is crack. Nas and damian marley. Repping that african sh.t

cap28:
i have to agree with one other poster here, african americans never bother with africa when they are making money in america but when everything suddenly dries up for them in america they suddenly fall in love with nigeria, these are the same people who go crazy if you dare refer to them as being african and yet still love african money, why are st.upid nigerian promoters wasting money on people who dont even want to identify with africa[b]? nigerians are forever following and copying african american entertainers instead of carving their own niche like the jamaicans - these people dont even like you and prefer to allign themselves with whites.[/b]

Almost everyone copies black american artist. The asians,whites and jamaicanss included. And i've never heard a an american artist talking bad about africa

MsDarkSkin:
Being caribbean tho Rick Ross does need to lose weight.
Unfortunately our men in the Caribbean ignore vital signs
and fail to take advice that pertain to health. Pr0state cancer
and [obesity] high blood pressure/ diabetes are the top killers
of our men. 

lol you stay reaching with this caribbean sh.t Rick ross is a fat black american man from the south/florida. No more "hatian" or different than the average dude down there lol.

The best soundtrack album is Prince's "Purple Rain"-the end

As an american, specifically a black american, my first intial thought was to respond to this.

But you know what, your right. America is the last country to talk about greed

Theres nothing remotely watered down or commercial about black entertainment. Most of our dances come from the street and are completely "original". Hence its popularity in the first place. African and caribbean dance are more tribal in comparison, doesnt mean its more "original" lol

Keep it real. Black americans keep black people worldwide relevant. Add on. If you feel some type of way about that than state your peace

physics put me on to felas best song, or whats your best fela song.

The marvin gaye whats going on album is like black american music bottled into one
