he’s not incorrect;

Both Jay and Beyonce very visibly have some white admixture in their genes (like majority of african americans do)

in the Caribbean, theres alot more black people who have 100% african dna (and also alot of mixed of course). The line wasnt a diss, just saying he (the Dominican) should take pride in his blackness seeing as how strongly african his genes are.

A typical Dominican is probably more mixed than a typical African American. Most black Dominicans have visual admixture too. In some places in the USA like in the South there are African Americans that are 90+ percent African.

….Yeah i’m half rican, i know what Caribbeans look like.

All Thats irrelevant, since the person who is rapping doesnt look like Alex rodriguez, but looks fresh out of nigeria. (Based on average looks)

This was your statement: "Both Jay and Beyonce very visibly have some white admixture in their genes (like majority of african americans do)"

I am trying to point out to you that on DNA tests show that Dominicans are more admixed than African Americans. As a matter of fact other parts of the Caribbean are more admixed than African Americans too and in some parts of the USA (in the South) African Americas are 90+ percent African, which rivals or surpasses some Black people in the Caribbean. So what you stated was not accurate.

If ARod and and Pujols didn't look like the rapper then someone like Beyonce was not a good comparison either.

youre actually playing into the whole point of the song breh.

when people say Dominican, yall automatically think of lightskin mixed people, these brehs in the song are all real Dominicans but not/barely mixed, straight up black. But the world never acknowledges them as being “real” Dominicans/Ricans.
Thats the whole point theyre making in the song.

But it wasnt deep to begin with, peace breh,

It wasn't deep to begin with. I am glad to see them arriving at cultural awareness. I was just pointing out what you stated was inaccurate. Moreover, as an African American this man is Black
