He is. He is also the textbook definition of the word "c00n" also. People like him are the ones that would alert massa of fellow slaves planning to escape for an extra blanket.

That doesn't make him a c00n. A c00n is someone who shucks and jives to entertain whites. A c00n also portrays and perpetuates negative stereotypes. L.A. Reid by your description is the textbook definition of an Uncle Tom. They aren't the same thing.

Usher's "I Don't Mind" peaked at #11 on the Hot 100 which means they helped the song become a hit on mainstream radio. Therefore, "I Don't Mind" is a song that is liked and played on their stations as well. "I Don't Mind" is a bigger hit than the Martin Garrix song.

Also, this is an uneven argument. You can't just pick a solo Usher record and compare it to songs he's featured on. An Usher record is already going to be embraced by Urban radio because that's who he's built a base with. On the same token, Garrix and Guetta are going to be played on mainstream radio because that's their base. If we're going to discuss how destructive Usher's song is, do that, but you're nitpicking and grasping at straws with the uplifting half of the argument. You picked random songs that he's featured on and compared them to his own song.

Then, people are out here like songs like "Happy" weren't #1 on the R&B/Hip Hop charts and there's proof of it. Aloe Blacc's "The Man" peaked higher on the R&B/Hip Hop charts than it did on Top 40 and the mainstream chart.

Im going to assume that you arent black since you seem to be ok with the one-sideness of negative, poisonous music on urban radio compared to the positive, clean music. Theres no way you can be black, have an understanding of how media propaganda has been used against us and still come in here:cape: for this destructive genre of music controlled by white supremists. You cant be.

They cant help themselves. They dont want us waking up:francis:




I'm hip. It's all about Power and Sustainability Of Their Way Of Life.




The whole "market dictates the entertainment" cliche' is such an ignorant blanket statement that it's not even funny.



There's so many ways that you could attack that "argument" that it's crazy we're even having one

yea, im still tripping over ol boy earlier saying that black people dont like positive music. Its literally like a twilight zone breh. We sing and dance along to music that promotes all of the destructive things that will lead to the demise of any culture. I cant imagine Asian or Jewish artists making music disrespecting themselves as such. Even if they wanted to, it wouldnt be allowed out in the mainstream to be seen by the world. Yet here we are, actually having to CONVINCE people that something is wrong with our airwaves being flooded with this poison. Crazy how brainwashed we are as a people.

you still are putting your effort into just throwing salt on a culture instead of promoting a counter culture for youth to latch on to instead
