Im reading this and you guys are accusing her of racism when yall are responding with just as much hate and even more. Even though I agree her statements are wrong she never said " I hate white people because of this and that"..but yall are accusing her of being uneducated and racist because of something she directed toward the government and the media. She is just defending MUSIC which is under constant scrutiny but you guys rather take that and use it as fuel to express your own biases and personal feelings which you already had deep down inside. If a rock and roll band accused the government and media for saying it was "devil music", I wouldnt be taking it as a racial insult just freedom of speech. Its 2008 and yall ready to boycott Alicia Keys, its not that serious.

Hey Yak-3,
Way to go! You just lowered yourself to Alicia's level. Both of you sound a bit crazed. |
|
|
What a load of crap...Alicia needs to stick to trying to sing and keep government issues alone.
|
|
|
This is a complete nut job. And by the way I'm sure she thinks the goverment is following her as well. Just shut up and play some music and stop spouting off crazy accusations.

ROFLMAO!!! HOO, that was good! LOL! |
|
I think it was the part about the government conspiring to get blacks to kill each other that sounded kinda racist. Oh, and the bit about Tupak and what's-his-name...something about the government keeping a "great black leader from existing".....something like that. Sounds racist to me. And your comment about "devil music" doesn't even match this issue. Now if the rock & roll band said the government *encouraged* devil music to keep white people out of Heaven, well then THAT would sound racist. |

Another brain dead actress spaeks up!

PE nor NWA were Gangsta but folks labeld them that way..I have no problems with Alicia.. |
|

What? She has got to be kidding. Another "it wasn't our fault" cry.
Seems to me the stories of threats, stealing, shootings, etc. coming out of the "gangsta rap" world were not due to government fabrication or instigation. Of course, her attitude of what she believes is power proves that the government had nothing to do with this. Bunch of crap. |

So I guess since the racist keys says it's o.k. to openly display her gold-plated AK-47 which she attests symbolizes "strength, power and killing 'em dead" that it is o.k. with her and her spiritual advisor and mentor jeremiah wright that people of other races can now wear sterling silver or white gold noosependants symbolizing "hang 'em high"? Keys is a walking hate crime by her own admission and should be arrested. Piece of trash.

Well, it is just another excuse for why things are they way they are. We certainly would not want people to take responsibilty for their own actions, oh no we cannot have that. Blame your woes on others rather than acting like an adult, your behaviors are everyone else's fault but your own

I HOPE THEY ARE MIS QUOTING HER. IF NOT AND SHE REALLY FEELS THIS WAY THEN, SHE STUPI$. NOBODY TOLD DR. DRE,ICE CUBE, SNOOP DOG, EAZY E, AND THE REST WHO STARTED WITH NWA TO JUMP UP AND START GANG BANGIN ON THE RADIO. JUST BECAUSE AN OPPORTUNITY IS THERE DOES NOT MEAN YOU HAVE TO TAKE IT. THEY SAW $$$ AND SOLD US OUT TO GANGSTER RAP. JUST BECAUSE SOME RICH WM FRONTED THEM THE $$$. WE ARE ALLOWED TO HEAR SNOOP AND 50 AND DRE BUT, PUBLIC ENEMY, SISTA SOULJAH ARE OFF LIMITS. GANGSTA RAP WAS CREATED AND DISTRIBUTED BY BLACKS FOR BLACKS. SHE HAS A CHARM AROUND HER NECK LIKE AN AK-4# I REALLY HAVE NO RESPECT FOR HER. DO SHE KNOW HOW MANY PEOPLE HAVE LOST LOVED ONES BEHIND THAT VERY G*N. THAT IS THE PROBLEM BLCK PEOPLE PROMOTING VIOLENCE LIKE SHE DOING. THERE IS MANY YOUNG PEOPLE THAT LIKE HER. NOW THEY MIGHT WANT AN AK-4* NOW THAT SHE IS PROMOTING THEM. SHE MADE SMOKIN ACES AND THINK SHE A REAL GANGSTA NOW!! STUPID BI$%^

Hype. Publicity stunt. Marketing 101. All of this attention will sell the music more.

Let's see...govt. conspiracy, so in order to combat it I'll wear a chain with an AK-47...sounds like she's in on the conspiracy, too. If she wants to show strength, power, and killing 'em dead, wear a pendant of 'Raid' instead

She is absolutely correct, and BET is also responsible for teaching young Blacks to run around with their pants falling off all day with ridiculous kiddie sideways caps and promoting sexual prowess without character.
Pedestalizing fools like sixtycent and snoop puppy as receptacles of knowledge. No wonder they are the bottom of the totem pole. Very sad indeed. :( |

No matter huh, just listen to another rendition of "Back that bu~tt up...", and continue to let the illegal aliens take your jobs and ostracize you from the rest of society.
Tragic. :( |

alicia is right because i know the media is how we get our information and again this is wrongful doing to our black people. alicia keys is absolutely correct , we need to uplift our people the right way because the media will try to give what they call ''gangsta rap'' the mistaken identity of being and showing the act of violence. So more power to my girl Alicia keys.
