You want me to get a vlad interview from some random celebtrity like you?not one link or fact
no our church and style of worship is black american culture
i know when i’m in a black american church, a white american church, or a jamaican church etc
we know our proverbs and sayings. and i know enough to keep something’s in house.
nobody ever asks for these in depths dives into caribbean culture because y’all equate shaking ass on beaches in feathered clothing to be culture and that’s it.
i know our traditions, our superstitions, hoodoo etc.
it’s for us to know we’ll keep it in house.

So only black Americans have the intellectual capability to develop their own culture. All other black people, besides Americans, are stupid.
Why does this white supremacist drivel slide?

he’s a godfather not the creator
all four elements of hip hop predate him even coming to the us
graffiti / rapping/jiving / djing and breakdancing all predate 1970.
he gets credit for setting the table for allowing these sub cultures to merge: not for the creation of them
who said that? weirdo
fact is a jamaican chinamen and all the indians in trinidad have as much claim to those cultures as the blacks
we don’t have that here. black american culture unlike trinidadian and jamaican culture is an ethnic culture not a national one

They think black Americans don’t have culture because they live in a predominately white country. But black Americans DO have culture, music, arts, dance, fashion, slang, I can go on and on.
NAUGHTY
All Star
Man look…. Lol
As an AA who came up in Florida for most of my life, if I told y’all how much I find been through the diaspora shyt… man look lol. Mind y’all, this was before this shyt became internet. The same shyt these nikkas are saying now, they said back then.
“Black Americans have no culture”
It’s always the Americanized Caribbeans and Africans who say this shyt. Lol. They either moved to the US young or they’re born here from immigrants parents. They get raised around the culture; they know the tv shows, slang, music etc. Cool. But then, something happens. They get that ego crushing reality check.
You ain’t one of us. Something about you is different.
What’s ya last name again?
Aye Why ya mama sound like that, bih?
A who?? nikka that’s a banana ol stupid ass boy
So of course when these nikkas go back to their respective countries to visit family, they see how folks is really living back home. They develop this sense of cultural pride that really stems from shame. They start looking down on nikkas that come fresh off the boat. As if they’re making them look bad. Seen it so many times, swear.
So now, you have someone with an inferiority complex towards the dominant culture they’ve been exposed to and live in, but a superiority complex towards their ancestral culture. And this creates a flip flopping mf who embraces both sides when it’s convenient. They’ll fukk with AA culture until carnival or some cultural event come around lol. Oh, now you wanna throw that flag up even though you was turning your nose up at ya peoples. Ashamed because a nikka accent is thick or they dress different. They reminding you of where ya roots are really from, and you don’t want them mean ol “yanks” to know you come from that. But you see how we live here in the US. The good AND bad. These nikkas are cultural tragic mulattoes lol.
But this is the funny part that drives all this shyt home. They got all this cultural pride but yet…
They don’t even wanna date folks from their home countries The fukk are you throwing that flag up for and you don’t even like the men/women from that country. I’ve met so many mfs who say they don’t date folks from their home country. And, AGAIN, it’s this new generation, Americanized ones who mostly say this shyt. These folks are a mess LOL.

no i didn’t.
trinidad/jamaica/guyana/dominican etc are nationalities
curry wasn’t made a staple by the blacks in jamaica
the same way roti wasn’t made a staple by the blacks in trinidad
those are shared cultures that transcend race
black culture in america is for black americans only
i don’t share a culture with chinese americans at all
go into a soul food restaurant that is for black americans and is made for and by black americans. it’ll be just us in there plus whatever people like our food
everyone else has to share their culture with people of all races. if i go to the dominican spot there’s white dominicans; black dominicans all sharing the same food.
not the case for us
i look at streetwear the way i look at graffiti. the manufacturer doesn’t change its place in our culture and how it’s used
because cornbread was using krylon to spray the graffiti on the walls doesn’t not make it a black american art form
because streetwear is not made by us doesn’t mean we don’t make it our own
a durag itself has no meaning into its put on a black americans head and the social context of socioeconomic disadvantage and government policing is applied
without that it’s just a head tie and not a durag

Tell us you're Jamaican without telling us you're Jamaican
And even if we were to entertain the idea of hip hop coming from Jamaica it would be hilarious that they chose to sample African American music for the first 20 years of it's existence.
