All you people need to drop the small probs (is Mos Def threatening, or not . ..), and get at the real prob, stupidity. It is the rallying cry of the majority of today’s youtes. I thought that it (STUPID) was on the run, but it’s back bolder than ever.

LOL do you even listen to yourself talk or do you spew broad, stereotyped, masturbatory theories unbeknownst to your weak mental on your own. People don’t listen to Mos Def because he is non-threatening, every rapper is non-threatening, the “hood” rappers just adopt a persona that less intelligent people such as yourself get off to vicariously. People listen to Mos because he makes good music, it’s intelligent and aesthetically pleasing unlike Lil Wayne for instance. I suggest you leave the pseudo-intellectual, self-reassuring physcobabble to Dr. Phil.

I remember when I was in high school in the late 90’s and early 2000’s, all the corny uber-white kids that did not usually associate with any colored people always brought up Mos Def in conversations about Hip Hop. It’s obvious why sheltered white people like Mos Def. He is one of the most non-threatening rappers in the game. Most of the time, Mos Def dresses like a nerdy white hipster and doesn’t wear the hood uniform of mlb fitted hats and gang colors like a scary, angry thugged out Black dude that hates White people. And he doesn’t rap about selling dope, robbing and or killing people. These topics tend to alienate White people who have always lived comfortable lives free of the relentless daily hardships of being a disenfranchised minority in a Euro-centric White Supremacist society. Whites who listen to Gangsta rap are mostly greasy angry teenagers seeking to piss off their parents and elders, whereas White Mos Def fans are grown up college-educated cookie cutter suburbanites with money, cozy job security and perfect lives.

Older white people like “safe”, “conservative” black celebrities who don’t cuss or use slang and display family values. That’s why my mom loves Will Smith and Wayne Brady, even though she can’t tell them apart and always calls them Denzel Williams (A hybrid of Denzel Washington and Montel I guess)…

Wanna see a white guy squirm? Try giving him the latest black handshake combined with the single arm over the shoulder hug. Ha Ha…

Damn white people are funny in our ignorance of anything black. But the book seems to poke fun at us educated left-winged white liberals which do not represent the core of white America; that is made up of mostly conservatives, rednecks, and bible thumpers.

[...] just smoked some Killa Cali and I still don’t have a damn clue what Mos Def is spewing on about. I have concluded that rumors about a 2010 Black Star drop are in fact [...]
