Not trying to be rude, but what do you mean when you say "Akron needed us"? You & Akron both come from immigrant backgrounds, right?The irony is that Akon got his fame and money from black America. He wasn't saying all this slick sh*t when he needed us in America to make it. He didn't go back to Senegal to make it.
He started all this slick sh*t AFTER he made his money off us. I have zero respect. I'd also have him name the most famous born and bred African talent and do a global poll and see how far down the list before that name is recognized more than even a B list black rapper or singer in America.
Akon's words and actions (he spends his money making only Africa better) makes the case for delineating. Unfortunately. His fame and money makes him the more dangerous. He's off code, and thinks now that he has the money he made off us, he's insulated. He feels it doesn't matter how we take it, he made his money off us and made enough where he thinks is 'f*ck you' money. It's reputed to be about 60 million and that can last you a few lifetimes in Senegal. One day though he may lose enough of that trying to build Akon city and doing too much and I hope Black people remember when he tries some concert tour to make money.
No offense taken. So, no offense given if you think that all immigrants, non FBAs, whatever, are one big group who rock with each other, such as a Somali and a Trinidadian, that would be the the farthest from reality as if all FBAs rock with each other from Larry Elder to Jason Black.Not trying to be rude, but what do you mean when you say "Akron needed us"?

The background may be similar but the acclimation is different. That's why he Akon doesn't respect the architect. White supremacy has taught everyone worldwide to hate FBA. Younger immigrants have fallen for it hook like and sinker. FBA are the cream of the crop of black people worldwide. The revolution will start with them.Just go to an NFL game or NBA game. You can't see it on tv. These men are HUGE. Just watch an NBA dunking contest. The white boys in fact all other races have to SIT THEY ASSES DOWN. I submit to you we as black people were that way in the classroom as well but that growth was nipped in the bud Dr Amos Wilson. Dr. Ray Hagins explains it best he says. The rat (white man ) saw the caterpillar ( black man) turn into a butterfly. He was jealous so he figured out a way to interrupt the process. Starting by preventing us from reading. Then creating an entire school system designed to dumb us down. He then backed that up with Christianity, then the modern media. This is carried out worldwide .This why I personally have a seething for the British & Jews. The situation is dire. Now you have Spanish immigrants going on TikTok and a bunch of other non-FBA, speaking AGAINST reparations for black people. I am a Jamaican living in Jamaica watching the Chinese rape us economically. I grew up in the Bronx acclimated by FBA. I Saw Grand Master Flash and the Furious 5 live ( I'm of that age) many FBA can't say that. (no Puerto Ricans by the way). My heart breaks for my people. But like Nipsy said it's a Marathon not a sprint. So we prepare the children and keep that jad in their faces.Not trying to be rude, but what do you mean when you say "Akron needed us"?

I understand you clearly. As a Jamaican who grew up among FBA, I am proud to see black Americans delineate, and stand up for themselves. It is that Jamaican thing that has helped to keep us proud, like the reggae music, the track and field dominance, and our famous on-code riders like Marcus and Bob, despite our flaws. The white supremacist media has done such a thorough job of destroying the FBA image and black people in general. A Korean living in Korea who had never met a black person can have a negative opinion. If the people orchestrating this ruin aren't the devil I don't know what is!....also, by 'us', I mean, Blacks who spent their lives in America. On code and were all cool as one, no matter where you originated from. I have zero issues with the lineage thing. None at all. It's a necessity in the fight against white supremacy. I get it.
However, pre FBA, etc, in most areas with few exceptions, no one tripped on any homie in the hood, if they were an FBA from Jamaica, Queens, NY, non FBA from Jamaica, the Caribbean, who may have an accent, FBA from Jackson, Mississippi with a southern drawl or Johannesburg, South Africa. If you grew up with brothers, and brother, he was from your hood and everyone rode for each other.
Hopefully, that doesn't change.
Today though, we gotta handle business and that means doing certain things that make SOME of us automatically separate on lineage instead of code. No offense was given. I've seen the same happen in black countries I've traveled to the other way around so, I am not meaning solely about America.
There's more Black Americans in sports & entertainment than there are Africans, but whose counting? The fact is we're Black & we ALL have multiple levels of talent.#dna
Black Americans have the same "intelligence" that he's speaking of ... That sports acumen, that's intelligence , entertaining, that's intelligence ... I believe melanin gives us more powers than we realize.
Its said that our ancestors had more DNA strands ..

I just re-read the title ... I question ppls motive nowadays (like Kanye, his intent was to sabototage or gain influence on his app, not to trash those ppl, imo) ... He's catering / borderline trying to exploit. I know the game ... Oh well#dna

So why can’t they be more talented in their own country? Why come to the country black Americans built and died fighting for? Why eat off us if you’re more talented and smarter? Now if you genuinely want to enlist in our struggle, that’s different IMO.
He needed our style and our approval before he could market himself to white society. We also supported him with that under age girl situation which I think the belief was he didn’t know she was 14 although being much older idk how you don’t know but maybe. He didn’t get popular in the states like Shabba Ranks or El general although the latter did admit he was influenced by AA music. Akon came out here and followed our formula and collab with the same artists that he’s basically attempting to shame.Not trying to be rude, but what do you mean when you say "Akron needed us"? You & Akron both come from immigrant backgrounds, right?
YepI'm guessing all those jokes and memes about his newly purchased FBA/ADOS hairline finally got to him. Now he's out here being passive aggressive and trying to demean and take jabs at us "akatas" as some form of "payback."
And then Akon spews white supremacist and racist dogwhistles like "pull up your pants?" Him talking smack about us with a fake FBA/ADOS hairline on his head is not a good look for him (no pun intended).
Say less. I will cover Detroit. Someone better let him know what happen to Aaron Hall here. He was never right afterwards. Detroit doesn't play that coming from anyone.If Africans are so talented,why are they singing broken versions of our music? You would create your own sound from scratch right? Akon has disrespected for the final time. We need to make him real uncomfortable when he comes to our cities.
AmeriKKKa did Shabba Ranks wrong as all hell but I am glad he stood firm on his beliefs.He needed our style and our approval before he could market himself to white society. We also supported him with that under age girl situation which I think the belief was he didn’t know she was 14 although being much older idk how you don’t know but maybe.

What did Aaron Hall do?Say less. I will cover Detroit. Someone better let him know what happen to Aaron Hall here. He was never right afterwards. Detroit doesn't play that coming from anyone.
From the tip of his head and his artificial FBA Hairline all the way down. I smell envy and jealousy with this level of obsession. I never heard any FBA/ADOS person disrespect Akon and we helped put him on, so what gives?Akon Says Chris Brown's Hood Ties Prevented Michael Jackson-Type Legacy Black Americans are always on his mind.
Isn't this the same MoFo that's always in jail? He & his brother.
