That’s a soft, politically correct comment as it’s laughable to imply generational trends are wholly independent of “ethnic background”.

Otherwise feel free to explain the top comment on ig ‘Ant so Atlanta’, or the title of the thread “YN energy”.
They are entirely mutually exclusive in this context. The sentiment you presented is about youth dynamics, not cultural. And certainly not characteristic of black culture as a whole.

Typing this comment, I was about to say there’s no way you’re black(American) even thinking that but recalled you said you weren’t in your post.

It shows.

I don’t think this is the clearest example of disrespect; Ant wasn’t disrespectful he was just being himself. I do believe certain people/positions/situations are deserving of a different kind of tact, but this seemed to be more of a casual environment.

President Obama didn’t seem to be put off, so I don’t think anyone else should be.

I dont care to get in a squabble about the topic, but off topic, why do other peoples hair lines bother some guys on this forum?

It's not extending their life or their wallets. Its like taking up issue with a thin mustache or thick mustache....... to each their own.
If we all had the same hair lines we would be boring... like a few years ago when everybody and their young uncles had the fukk boy hair cuts, following the crowd.

Black people are diverse, we are all different, hair lines and all.
You don’t care to get into it over the topic but THIS you care about?

As someone who is dark skinned and born here but not “ADOS”….all you kneegas have blood on your hands. The anti-black self hate roots started in grade school and it’s STILL embedded in most American black folk.

Let a “FBA/ADOS” debate pop off and all that anti-Africa anti-melanin self hate will come screaming out :scust:

I say all that to say…I’m quite amused at all these holier than thou comments :childplease:

Sabonis aye? :mjpls:


Hey I’m not trying to be an a$$hole but…where’s that “ADOS” energy :skip:

That man daddy name is ARVYDAS he ain’t American bruh

Oh no, the point was already made but why’d he go into detail :snoop:

Coli xenophobic “ADOS” gang when they saw Africa

mad-face.gif

It’s very cringe once diaspora wars go public, when ‘ADOS’ start getting petty and desperate for credit.

I would prefer he stop the sampling also. Bc Afrobeats is already a wave. Doesn’t need rap. Mfers are hurt—-bc rap isn’t selling—- so now they gonna start itemizing

It’s silly bc there’s too much shyt in black culture that doesnt have ‘ADOS’ origins if we wanna start being petty. Even rap itself ain’t ADOS :pachaha:we did just celebrate the 50th of hip hop going by the date of Kool Herc’s party didnt we?:wtf:

Or, Wait for You was one of the biggest rap songs in recent years sampling Tems wasn’t it….and actually Future is a real ‘different’ lookin mfer so I did a quick search:

Nayvadius DeMun Wilburn was born in Atlanta, Georgia of Haitian parents.

:gladbron::laff::dead: Lmao Foh

Oh you dialed up a good one. Perfectly divisive for no reason

The irony is here’s this icon who will be in history books for hundreds of years, yet current ADOS ideology would spit in his face.

‘Don’t confuse ethnicity with nationality…you’re black’. “ADOS” dont even agree with him. Y’all don’t even know who to be mad at in this scenario :snoop:

Clown ass title. And I hate Akademiks

1- I know damn well most "ADOS" dont know wtf a gulli geechi is

2- The man said they are closest to their culture, which is the absolute antithesis of "ADOS" ideology. He also said they speak patois.

By you goofy nggas lothic they aren't even fukking "ADOS" :mjtf:

Not anymore. ADOS/FBA/Aziatic/Anunaki/Original Man for life :obama:
Bro just has an issue with African Americans no matter how you slice it. There’s at least 6 pages of dude airing out his grievances

Pardon me?

Which part of the UK are us Black people calling random women 'Julie'?

Nah bro, where most Black people stay, in London, it's an auntie or uncle ting if you're Millenial and younger.

Julie ya kna, did I just read a statement from Ali G or something?

:mjlol:


I would say auntie or uncle if you known my family from I was small but nah
Random strangers it wasn't until I visit family overseas and that's America, Africa and Caribbean where I saw people calling other Elders that they just met or were just neighbours with 'Ms'

The only Ms I knew prior was my teacher in school.

Maybe I grew up unruly tho.

So in other words, you agree with my statement Simple logic excercise from YOUR own words
1- Your words: People that grew up in “villages” are different (read: more deferential) than those raised in “cities”.
2- Fact: People raised/from the US are more likely to be raised in/influenced by cities
3- Fact: People raised/from other countries are more likely to be raised in/influenced by villages
Conclusion: people from other counties are more likely to be more deferential.
-Lets use this. It's doesn't take a genius to understand that people in different places defer to their elders differently. Being an outsider some of the things we do in the city you might see as disrespectful but that's just you being ignorant.

-It's like swearing while talking to our parents in conversation & swearing "AT" them are totally different but outsiders can be confused by it. If you're not familiar with how a group operates you can judge their level of deferential to elders.

Yeah as an African American it is confusing hearing people trying to advise African Americans about our customs and culture. ..
As a kid in America you didn't grow up calling adults by their first names, even if you grew up in the cities. Your mother or Grandmother would've knocked your teeth out if you disrepected like that. Adults were always called Mr. or Mrs. somebody or another. African Americans used to be raised to be very respectful to adults, especially the elderly. That was all over the country.
Cities are the reasons customs changed and that is the case in the Caribbean and in Africa too.
-Like this was definitely not a universal thing when I was growing up. Almost all adults were referred to by their first name or family nickname & the only time you used Mr/Mrs was when you didn't know their name. Seniors maybe but most adults would correct you with "Call me ___" immediately.
