This is the point of the game: “Once you’ve been tagged, you have to write a note with sixteen random things, shortcomings, facts, habits or goals about you. At the end, you have to tag 16 different people.”

3. I am a very meticulous person.
4. I actually had to work and practice dancing before I get into the club.

2007-2008 is the Crank Dat era of hip-hop.

Crank Dat Army Boy, Aqua Man, Batman, Forrest Gump, Iceman, Incredible Hulk, Jump Rope, Lion King, Michael Jackson…..(gasp for breath)….Crank Dat Peter Pan, Road Runner, Ryu, Spiderman, Spongebob, Super Mario, Weezey Wee, Wonder Woman, Yank….and last but not least SOULJA BOY!

No disrespect to the new wave of the 21st century at all because I WILL DANCE MY ASS OFF IN ANY CLUB I’M IN! I’m not much of a club hopper, but I try to keep it lively every now and then.

K, back on topic. I’m just posing a question for the world? What will we crank next?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well, at least we dancing and cranking instead of trying to kill one another or talking about how many people we beat up, how many drugs we sold, and how many women shaking their behinds (no disrespect to the ladies with that one, cuz God knows I care for mine!).

I gotta say, this one is a good read. It’s a little long, but read it nontheless. Basically, it’s about interracial relationships, which is still a touchy issue in the world today. Give it a read, definitely. I’ve seen it around on several sites, but I had to post it.

Check this out,White women’s opinion of black women & a brother’s
response. Please take a moment and read this. Pretty
Deep! Thumbs up to this black man..
It seems that an article was written to Sister 2 Sister magazine
by a Caucasian woman who requested a response from black men. I’m so glad she got what she asked for (and more) !!!Enjoy

Dear Jamie:

I’m sorry but I would like to challenge some of your Black male readers.I am a White female who is engaged to a Black male-good-looking, educated and loving. I just don’t understand a lot of Black female’s attitudes about our relationship. My man decided he wanted me because the pickings amongst Black women were slim to none. As he said they were either too fat, too loud, too mean, too argumentative, too needy, too materialistic or carrying too much excess baggage.

Dear Jamie:
I would like to respond to the letter written by A Disgusted
White Girl. Let me start by saying that I am a 28-year old black man. I graduated from one of the most prestigious universities in Atlanta, Georgia with a Bachelor of Arts Degree in Business Management. I have a good job at a major corporation and have recently purchased a house. So, I consider myself to be among the ranks of successful black men.

I will not use my precious time to slander white people. I just want to set the record straight of why black men date white women. Back in the day, one of the biggest reasons why black
men dated white women was because they were considered easy.

The black girls in my neighborhood were raised in the church. They were very strict about when they lost their virginity and who they lost it to. Because of our impatience to wait,
brothers would look for someone who would give it up easy without too much hassle. So, they turned to the white girls.

Nowadays, in my opinion, a lot of brothers date white women because they are docile and easy to control. A lot of black men, because of insecurities, fears,and overall weaknesses,
have become intimidated by the strength of our black women. We are afraid that our woman will be more successful than us, make more money than us, drive nicer cars and own bigger houses. Because of this fear, many black men look for a more docile woman. Someone we can control. I have talked to numerous black men and they continuously comment on how easy it is to control and walk over their white women. I just want to set the record straight. I want A Disgusted White Girl to know that not all successful black men date white women. Brothers like Ahmad Rashad, Denzel Washington, Michael Jordan, Morris Chestnut, Will Smith, BlairUnderwood, Kenneth “Babyface” Edmonds, Samuel L. Jackson, and Chris Rock all married strong black women And, to flip the script, there are numerous white men, in and out of the spot light, who openly or secretly desire black women over white
women. Ted Danson, Robert DeNiro, and David Bowie to name a few.

I just don’t want a disgusted white girl to be misinformed Stop thinking that because you are white that you are some type of goddess. Remember, when black Egyptian Queens like Hatsepshut and Nitorcris were ruling Dynasties and armies of men in Egypt, you were over in the caves of Europe eating raw meat and beating each other over the head with clubs. Read your history!

It was the black woman that taught you how to cook and season your food. It was the black woman that taught you how to raise your children. It was black women who were breast feeding and raising your babies during slavery.

It is the black woman that had to endure watching their fathers, husbands, and children beaten, killed, and thrown in jail. Black women were born with two strikes against them:
being black and being a woman. And, through all this, Still They Rise!

It is because of the black women’s strength, elegance, power,love and beauty that I could never date anyone except my black Queen. It is not just the outer beauty that captivates
and draws me to them. It is not the fact that they come in all shapes, sizes, colors and shades that I love them. Their inner beauty is what I find most appealing about black women. Their strong spirit, loving and nurturing souls, their integrity, their ability to overcome great obstacles, their willingness to stand for what they believe in, and their determination to succeed and reach their highest potential while enduring great pain and suffering is why I have
fallen in love with black women.

I honestly believe that your anger is geared more toward jealousy and envy more so than snotty looks. If this were not so, then why do you continuously go to tanning salons to
darken your skin? If you are so proud to be white, then why don’t you just be happy with your pale skin? Why do you continue to inject your lips, hips, and breasts with unnatural and
dangerous substances so you can look fuller and more voluptuous?

I think that your anger is really a result of you wanting to have what the black woman has.

BOTTOM LINE: If I were looking for a docile woman, someone I can walk over and control, I would give you a call. But, unfortunately, I am looking for a Virtuous Woman. Someone that
can be a good wife and mother to my children.

Someone who can be my best friend and understands my struggles. I am looking for a soul mate. I am looking for a sister and; unfortunately, you do not and CANNOT fit the bill.

No offense taken, none given.

Signed, Black Royalty

Released Rage

It’s just some heat that I had to spit. I know the first lines were a little rude, but it’s what I feel at times.

I feel like truly exploding and just losing all containment and control, but I know that it is not right. A lot of people say a person may need to bite his or her tongue at times. Honestly, the tongue gets tired of bite marks to a certain extent. Mine just got tired, that’s why I wrote this rhyme. I really do hate how some people always talk dumb shit and speak of that petty shit. Honestly, there is a point that guys actually gossip more than women. It’s an annoyance, that’s for sure. Then again, gossip itself is an annoyance.

I did the rhyme off Yo Gotti’s “That’s What’s Up” beat. The final verses were basically from a side of me that I realize is the true side of me. I like the compassion, the soft-heartiness, any form of respect that I can show to anyone. My grandparents were instrumental in teaching me that way of life.
