:yeshrug:Those are those White liberals y'all loves so much

they can't co-exist with anybody. they have to run and take over everything they involve themselves with - it's the same mentality that fuels imperialism

this is something they can't deny and it's not a racist statement at all.

they loved bluegrass? - take it.
they loved rock n roll? - take it.
they loved the civil rights movement? - take it (lgbt community)
they loved jazz? - take it.

now we're seeing it with R&B and Hip Hop - the "old" way was terrible and they didn't get it (because it was too BLACK)
ever notice these new publications never talk about THE WEST COAST ALL STARS - ALL IN THE SAME GANG or THE STOP THE VIOLENCE MOVEMENT - SELF DESTRUCTION
it's like they never happened, why? b/c it's not their concern...they don't "get it"

but they "get" chief keef and ed sheeran though :stopitslime:

Flip it: imagine two young Rae shremmund looking brothas clowning rock legends like AC/DC under Rolling Stones/SPIN twitter accounts

You think that would fly? :francis:
Complex and its affiliate twitter handles catch that block from me on social media, I dont fukk with them at all. They have a plantation mentality about hip hop, their condescension level is through the roof, and they stay talking down to the artists and the listeners in their writeups. Complex and publications like them are why Kanye said he only wants Black writers reviewing his music, these White run hip hop sites have lowkey contempt for Black culture. They try to hide it but it spills out in their commentary.

:hhh:I shot for complex a few times. They pay good money but I didn't see any blacks there and it was a cac who got me the job.

Did shyt with fader and vice but they were always freelance gigs. Never been offered a permanent job.

:ohhh:


Not sure why you hate on white organizations tho.., where are the black organizations giving opportunities?

I mean there is some guy a few posts up campaigning for non paid work.

I'm cool on that :hubie:

Bruh they hire more arabs, hispanics and racially ambigious "exotical" people than black folks.


It's disgusting

But at the same time I don't really remember getting any money from black folks in the entertainment/media industry.

To be honest a lot of black people in these industries including the entertainers are c00ns and would rather give money to their useless homies or white people or Asians. I see it all the time.

I worked with a bunch of people for peanuts before they were famous but once they got paper they had upgrade to white folks.

So... yal ain't hear about how Ebony hasn't been paying their black writers that have done cover stories for them?
:wtf:

I saw an article yesterday about it. Chance's cover is coming up and he shouted out some of the people he worked with on the cover and people started going off about how Ebony hasn't paid them for work.

EDIT: http://thegrapevine.theroot.com/ebonyowes-ebony-magazine-is-blocking-writers-they-sti-1795683051

That's a link to what I'm talking about
Yeah, this has been going on for over a month. Ever since Ebony got bought out back in 2011, they've been hot garbage. So folks aren't losing sleep of them going down the drain.
