[fairfax12]

Some real c00n sss nikkas on here

Oh, I thought you were referring to me for a second

 

[Evil Grandson]

Probably because she's black.

Both of her parents look like mixed with Black. Cardi is definitely partially Black, and you can tell that just by looking at her.

What it comes down to is do you consider mixed people to be Black. If you're one of those that don't consider mixed people to be considered Black, then she's not. If you do, then she is

The thing I've noticed is a lack of consistency when it comes to Mulattos from the U.S. and Mulattos from Latin America. The latter is not given the same leniency as the former when it comes to being considered Black. But yet, they're both in the same boat.

Good example of this...

Here we have Derek Jeter and Alex Rodriguez. Anybody that knows Jeter obviously knows that he's mixed with Black and White, making him a Mulatto. A-Rod is Dominican. And all you have to do is take one look at him and you can tell that racially mixed with Black and White, making him a Mulatto as well.

Yet of the 2, Jeter is the only 1 that is widely considered to be Black. A-Rod is not. Yet both of them are racially mixed. Why is that? What's the difference between a Mulatto from the US and a Mulatto from Latin America If 1 of them is considered to be Black, then the others should be too.

It's the same in Hip-Hop. Latin Mulattos (Cardi B, Fat Joe, Big Pun, etc) are not afforded the same lenience as their American counterparts (Cole, Drake, etc).

I'm just saying, let's keep it consistent

You speaking too much facts here

I wouldn’t claim neither of them as Black
This is not difficult to me

at this post framing this as some long fought battle from Ricans and Dominicans to have their "blackness" acknowledged...and comparing mixed race Americans with one white and one black parent to Caribbean Hispanics who would have to go back hundreds of years to find a "black" or "white" parent... Get the entire fukk outta here...the vast majority of them would get offended if you called them black...damn near the only time you find this "well, technically Cardi B is 17% black" shyt is when they're making money off hip hop and wanting a pass to say nikka (which has more to do with NYC culture letting basically EVERYBODY say it than some "oh but there's traces of African ancestry from 4 generations ago so it's cool" bullshyt)... outside of that for the most part it's "me no black papi" territory and them clinging to Spanish ancestry...hence Cardi out her own mouth saying she's not black barely a year ago...but now it's "I shouldn't have to tell people I'm Black cause it's obvious" after she blew up as a rapper

If we’re keeping it real, Cardi looks as black as someone like Beyoncé who clearly is just as mixed being creole.

But i agree she ain’t “African American” black if that’s what people mean.

There’s no comparison between the two

Look at Beyonce parents and then look Cardis

nikkas just claim Cardi because she has that racially ambiguous look but shes not black

I agree with everything you said but u don’t necessarily have to go back hundreds of years to find a black or white carribean Hispanic parent

Them white people awards got y’all really worked up huh?

Cardi is clearly black... you sound dumb as fukk tryna slice it up into percentages and dumb ass rules. nikkas be so ignorant if somebody speak Spanish they automatically wanna throw em away.

And yall gotta be smarter than to engage with people that’s got these internet agendas. Because a nikka is willing to spend 3 hours arguing his point against strangers online don’t mean that he is right nor does it mean you need to change his mind... Let that nikka be dumb

neither of her parents are black, and she is some how black?

 

[Kuwka_Atcha_Ratcha]

The coli that calls Rita ora black is the same coli saying Cardi B is not black

rita ora is white, so yeah she ain't black neither

 

[Pop123]

I've literally never seen anyone say she's black, lol
