who cares what this man has to say smh u fail if u take advice from bowwow dude takes dildos in the butt he needs to wake up and gucci and wayne are both dumb black men, saying “nigga” is your lines or interviews isnt helping either smfh, and its not the police idiots, being a police officer is a job there normal people, grow up nothing wrong with snitching but i can see if u live in the hood (hood folks are broke) you may have a problem with it but a wealthy man in the suburbs doesnt care about snitching know why? cause hes living the life in a safe environment THINK!
smart.
Why single out black men? i kno hip hop is mostly black but damn racism will never end if black people can’t stop pointin out color for everything….ex:kanye, now bow wow…cops come in all colors & they have a job to do
Yea that whole race talk is played out..corny shit
actually racial profiling is big in chicago just happened to me 2 weeks ago the state of illinois is tryin to rob me right now wat he sayin is true and is happeining everyday.
Yawnssssssss
HFM2 Nov 22
who cares all of the lights leaked and the banks & em track
They do be targeting blacks though… bit really anybody successful and has money… FREET.I FREEWEEZY… I dont like to see anyone go to jail even the people i dont like
I’ve always wondered who are “They” as in “They lookin at us like we dumb” and notice how he dick rides Kanye. He’s all of a sudden talks with so much passion and uses “good music” and “power” in the interview. It also sounds like he doesn’t have any credentials on the topic of going to jail and the struggle of avoiding it.
MAN.. YALL ARE SOME STUPID ASS BOYS ON THIS SITE LISTEN TO WAT THAT NIGGA SAYIN HE 23 NOW HE AINT 12 NO MORE STUPID ASS BOYS.. AINT NOBODY TELLIN DAT NIGGA TO SAY DAT AND HE SPEAKIN REAL SHIT RETARDED ASS NIGGAS
Yall some stupid ass niggas step ya game up and listen to the nigga trying to kick knowledge
I wonder who that is directed to?
thissite has some dumbass bloggers, for real. Like go back to school.
straight dumb ass people on this site the man speaking the truth black men do need to step up we are the ones killin the black family’s real talk. 90 something percent of black family’s are ran by single parents.
Real Talk @That Nigga, YoungMoneyGoHard and ME.
To that dumbass above wanna know why hip hop is black? because IT CREATED BY US Dumbass Bow wow was speaking truth but these fools dont understand. I’m a Black Man and the dummies that saying negative shit about this post is niggas
I can’t believe niggas because that what some of you are who posted not black men you’ll niggas wether you like it or not they target black people and the more successful you are the easier the target. Hip-Hop especially T.I, 50 Cent,Jadakiss,Lil Wayne,Trey Songz, Ja Rule the list is endless and not forgetting Prodigy. Black men are more likely to go to jail than go to college I’ve bin hearing that recently don’t know about the statistics but I wouldn’t bet against. Bow Wow giving you some advice and If one person sits out and takes that advice good but you’ll just full of hate fuck Bow Wow blah blah he speaks the truth and you’ll hate on him for it why ?
its not only black men my fellow hispanics are being locked up alot too n its not becuase of the color of our skin its the road we decide to take in life. we dont vote because we say our vote dont matter.we drop outta school because we can make more on the streets..we need to start making better choices in life cops are doing there jobs arresting those who are doing bad shyt n when they catch the wrong person they find some1 quick cus we all dress n act the same we need to become more educated stop dressing like we belong in jail n everyone stop thinking you the next rapper go to college n be somebody
Why are y’all on here arguing about this nonsense I mean if you do dumb shit then most likely you are going to get caught up that’s all races of people not just blacks!!
andres – Cops come in all colors, but who do you notice being put in jail the most & have you ever seen a white person wrongly convicted & spent years in jail?? Wake Up
We do need to step up but its easy for a rich person to look down and say that. Bow never had to struggle a day in his life so he wouldn’t know a thing about the system. First we need to better our communities and stop letting gangster movies and studio gangsters influence our youth. People need to learn that there’s more to life than selling drugs, rapping, and playing sports. We need more business men out there. I shouldn’t have to ask a peer of mine where he is and he says the “studio” or the “corner”. Instead of going to the studio go to school. Once you’re in the system there is no getting out. A black man with priors is like a death sentence.
E$…..T.i., ray lewis & OJ got off pretty ez plus the president is black…such a racist country right???
On some real shit, he is right about taking responsibility for your actions and giving them powers that be more power. That being said, those of you that know that should try speaking to the ones that don’t quite get it as opposed to speaking at them like they are retarded. Just sayin’.
@ andres – You do realize there are tons of wholes in your logic. Might I suggest brushing up on your history, arrest rate percentages, unemployment rates (for college educated and non-college educated) blacks in the country. That is just a few of the wholes you have in that rationale. Peace.
I’m tired of posting on this site and trying to drop knowledge on most of you, so I’m going to make this as brief as I possibly can:
Every fucking person who posts in these comments are fucking idiots. ESPECIALLY the white people who post here that do not live in, what is arguably defined as, REALITY.
White People (all of you): ACCEPT REALITY. This is a racist country. PERIOD. There are no objections, no alternatives, no excuses. Racism exists in us all. No reverse racism (because in order to redirect racism, one has to EXPERIENCE IT FIRST, so stop telling black people they are “reverse racists”. No such thing. We are racist toward you, because you were racist toward us first). Don’t run from your past. ACKNOWLEDGE, ACCEPT and REPENT for what YOUR PEOPLE did in the past. ACCEPT IT. Stop trying to move on when you sit IN BETWEEN. Either be complete racists or look past skin color PERIOD. NO IN BETWEEN. You’ll never know what it’s like to be black, so stop telling us shit like “stop complaining, stop playing the ‘race card’.” There is no such thing. WAKE UP.
Black People: GET RIGHT. And naw, I ain’t talking about with God, Jesus, Allah, blah blah blah. Get right, as in, recognize self-worth, self-respect, discretion, support, love, etc. We can’t grow AS A PEOPLE until we grow AS INDIVIDUALS. Yes, we all want to live our lives, but our lives have no substance, no meaning unless we’re doing something for something and not something for nothing. There are no excuses, even if someone doesn’t give you a job, give you a house, give you this, give you that. Go out and take it. By any means. It’s there for you. White people will try by all means to stop you. Don’t let them. But stop making asses of yourselves and start accepting PERSONAL RESPONSIBILITY for your actions. Also, a MAJOR reality check for all you fools: Obama cares NOTHING about you. It’s just the way it is. Don’t listen to Jay-Z, don’t listen to Will.I.Am. Your president has his own personal agenda. He cares nothing for you. The fact of the matter is, government is not here for you. Plenty of back channels of the rich-elite and government have conspired to destroy your lives. You may not see it with your eyes, but it is there, in all things. The way they guide you to live, the way they guide you to think, the way they guide you to eat, using manipulative methods, such as TV, News, Media, Video Games, etc. Learn to think and do for self.
In response to Bow Wow: Man, I was just remarking the other day how you need to brush up on your acting skills, if that’s what you want to do, because the Lottery Ticket was not your best work, but I liked you in FF3. But what you said in the video, the realest shit any single one of us could say about ourselves. You could’ve been more contextual with your words, but the bulk of it is clear, and for what you said, you have earned 1000000% of my respect. We do need to recognize, as black men, that the shit that we do is NOT COOL. That notion is ABSOLUTE. And apparently great minds think alike, because when I read about Gucci the other day, I thought the same thing: Stop giving the cops a reason to come down on you. True, Police officers are nothing more than Pawns involved in a bigger scheme to “cleanse the country of undesirables” (and it’s funny, because most police officers don’t even know they are being used this way, they just blindly follow what they are taught at their training camps). But, we don’t have to give them a reason to direct it toward us. And that’s all we seem to do.
This wasn’t short, but I said what I had to say. I hope somebody reads it and wakes up.
Peace
I woke up…………. Real Talk NY = Black Racist Radical Extremist Movement.
I’m a white puertorcian & i been to jail not for my color obviously but 4 my actions n i live in the hood my whole life. ofcourse racism exists but its def overrated because most of the time its ur actions not ur skin color. Also slavery was over 50 years ago let it go u didnt live it n most of the white people now r not guilty 4 ur past so stop takin it out on them..that’s reverce racism which is RACISM eighter way. i don’t look at people for their color so maybe im not the right person 4 this. i’m just against anyone who brings up race in any case shit is wack its weak n its played out..MOVE ON stop complainin n take control of ur destiny
Andres, you obviously did not read what I said.
And I’m not familiar with any point in history where “white puerto ricans” were required to undergo a series of moral violations to actually exist in this world.
Slavery was not 50 years ago. Get it right.
And again, you may not see things with your eyes, but it exists.
No, I wasn’t persecuted and treated inhumanely 50 years ago. But, I am persecuted and treated inhumanely TODAY…
I’m happy that you don’t have issues with your skin color in everyday life.
But DO NOT BE NAIVE. Just because it’s not happening to YOU, doesn’t mean it’s NOT HAPPENING.
That is called selfishness.
I acknowledge that you don’t have the same issues as me. Now ACKNOWLEDGE THAT I DON’T HAVE THE SAME ISSUES AS YOU.
And now, after we combine our experiences (yours where a world can exist without racism and mine where a world currently exists with racism), let’s focus on making the world the best possible place to live.
And that will not involve sweeping all things past under the rug and forgetting about it. Life doesn’t work that way.
Or, maybe for some people, who would just love to deny the reality of things.
If you don’t mind me answering this ImME but just out of curiosity how are you treated inhumanely today?
Im sorry asking this not “answering this”
who would ever listen to this guy. Straight up switched his style so shamefully. This guys looks exactly like wiz. Idk what it is about him but real recognize real and this dude is not it. Those pussy ass faces he makes to emphasize his point. Swear to god i want to fight this guy. Taking his shirt of for 14 yr old bitch on corny ass 106. Name one REAL rapper/person who would do some shit like that…go ahead just one…
EVERYONE gets locked up no matter the color. its not the color getting locked up its the people making stupid ass moves getting locked up. stop being soo damn ignorant people.
how are u gunna say its the cops fault or the white people fault if u doing sum stupid shit and get caught? it yur fault no one tell u to be a criminal
E$…..T.i., ray lewis & OJ got off pretty ez plus the president is black…such a racist country right???
out of 44 presidents & only one minority? Are you for real? Ray lewis never did a day in jail…..try again
Go to a blk neighborhood & i’ll bet my house you will see white cops policing it
Nigga tryna kick knowledge when its rappers that need two step up they influence people more than any1 90% of rap is about gang bangin and violence nothing positive
^^ That’s very true. Rappers do need to step it up.
IMME u have a point when you say racism still does exist it will never go away…but to say white people need to repent is just stupid racism is completely different nowadays ppl rarely act on it racist are cowardly ppl now n if u havent been chased down the street by a group of whites tryna kill u been forced to work on a plantation for zero dollars.arent being given the right to vote or share the same class room as white ppl then stfu cus you dont know racism..n by ppl using the word nigga you not letting racism go away becus calling some1 nigga is actual reverse racism. n all races have gone thru injustice my people were forced to work on citrus plantations, in my true puerto rican race was pretty much wiped out n mixed with alot of other races.we were slaves to the new world
What he’s saying is right. It don’t matter who the messenger is as long as it’s honest. He hasn’t been arrested ,he doesn’t do illegal stuff on camera. He’s 23 years old and well paid.
And “Skratch” commenter said not to be advised by Bow Wow because he uses dildo but you took a story from KAT STACKS and believed it lmao. She has no credibility. She’s a liar with a bunch of contradictions in her stories.
And who says Bow Wow hasn’t struggled “a day in his life”. Bow Wow didn’t get money til he was 14 so he grew up without much. His mom just worked too jobs which is every other person in the inner city’s story.
He’s talking BLACK MEN, because he’s black and Wayne’s black. Because black people hardly voted, because a bunch of black men are incarcerated for things they haven’t done and charged harsher for crimes regardless.
This country was built on racism and it hasn’t gone away. If you think it has then you’re retarded and must not try to get work ,a house, or much of anything.
Bow Wow changes his clothes like everyone does every year. Wiz Khalifa didn’t invent hoodies and hats . Bow Wow was wearing what he wears before Wiz came out. He puts on a snapback ya’ll calll him Tyga. Tyga didn’t bring snapbacks back the coast did. When grills were hot Bow had a grill. It don’t make him fake to change with the times. He’s young that’s what we do.
What the hell does his clothes or music have to do with what the fuck he is saying? Instead of getting your shit together you want to talk about his clothes?
Well if all you want to talk about it clothes then pull your skirt up B.
most of these comments here have a sensible message in them….you all should stop fighting each other down just because someone doesn’t have the same views as you do. This is a very touchy subject which could cause a DEBATE from now until kingdom come……and still things won’t change…..at the end of the day we are all individuals and through our upbringing, personality and experiences in life WE WILL SEE THINGS DIFFERENTLY…..jus sayin
PEACE!!!!!!!!!
I see a lot of whites posting let me tell you this YOU HAVENT LIVED THIS LIFE WE LIVE SO SHUT THE FUCK UP also if you wanna call this site racist GET THE FUCK OF BLACK MUSIC obviously ya’ll have forgotten HIP HOP IS BLACK MUSIC
I havent lived your life “DRE84″ lets be specific and just because your black doesn’t mean every black person lives the way you do and don’t tell me to leave this site because American desegregated a long time ago. Something your people fought so hard for. So deal with it.
@ Andres – Just based on your statements I can see that you are not the sharpest tool in the shed. What is scary is that I am not sure that you know how stupid your statements come across.
This isn’t about racism. It’s about our black men/youth following the wrong path(s) in life. Go to any prison and 55% are black men. The title says “Urges black men to step it up.” That says, black men need to get off of the bullshlt, and stop trying to be gangstas and clowns living in a hip-hop fantasy world. Stop increasing your chances of getting locked up and do something positive with your life even if it means, workign at Mc.Donalds, atleast you aren’t on the streets running around like a bafoon. Go to community college, talk to these young black kids about street life and how to avoid getting caught up with these low life knuckle heads. Raise your children the correct way, guide them through school, etc. Bow wow is kicking knowledge, because we as a culture is looking bad right now.
woww bow woww .. yu gotta point .. but theres crooked cops out there .. pullin over only colored ppl .. most whites get away with anythin .. bow wow dont kno nuthin bout tough life … he makin dumb decisions too .. just hasnt been caught yet
bowwow met snoop at around age 6 he didnt put out an album till like age 13, but was being promoted at age 12, bowwow never lived the life of struggling like i siad at the top, i dont take him serious he doesnt know what hes talking about, racism will always exist but to say blacks are the only going to jail is stupid, im black we do dumb things so we deserve to go to jail, bowwwow is sayin that were going to jail for the heck of it, NO! were going to jail cause where not educated and were being caught up doing stupid thinks like wayne, gucci and T.i and path will continue because we dont have real role models, this rap music does play a factor in how we behave, listen to what your listening to, the radio doesnt promote positive music neither do record labels soooo things like this will forever happen
This all would of been prevented if Bow Wow wouldv’ed said EVERYONE has to step it up..white, blacks, latinos, everybody has to step up & become better people…instead he singled out black men which sounds pretty racist…so fuck u lil ignorant ass bow wow lol…bringin race into anything is the ez way out but hey when in doubt just pull the race card out huh? Lol
i think its good but great feel my frame stick to reading on the reach of the church but…c’mon stick with all some more getting quick perfectly! I think
Its a statistical FACT that black people (partically black men) are being put in jail at a higher ratio (relative to the population) than any other race (including Hispanics). Yes black people do be doing a lot of dumb shit (ahem T.I.) but at the same time black men are also TARGETED. This is not news. This has been going on for DECADES. They quick to stop a nigga on the street. Quick to harrass people that just be minding they business, and they quick to put a nigga in jail.
I completely agree with Bow Wow. We have to start doing better as a population, a culture, and a society. Its gotten so bad that its actually uncool to say you graduated from high school. And fuck saying you actually have a degree. Being dumb is actually glorified in hip hop. And that shit don’t make no kind of sense. I’m glad niggas like Drake and J.Cole are coming out and showing that you can speak properly and you don’t have to spend 10 million on jewelry or look all tatted up to be successful and respected.
i cosign “Aces Up” hiphop plays a major factor on young black teens and it just continues
InMe – You trying to kick knowledge but say some shit like — “I’m not familiar with any point in history where “white puerto ricans” were required to undergo a series of moral violations to actually exist in this world.”
WOW. LOL!
The Spaniards raped every island in the Carib, including Puerto Rico. And the American government has done it’s fare share of shit to PR in recent times too. I could get into it further but whatever, just brush up on your world history.
Hmmm… interesting to know that they still had an actual COUNTRY where Spaniards actually CAME to invoke “rape of every island”.
What did we have in the 1900s?
The U.S.A.?
That was “our country”?
You missed that entirely.
Blacks would’ve been wiped out of this country had things continue to go according to the white agenda at the time.
So, I stand by my statement. “I’m not familiar with any point in history where “white puerto ricans” were required to undergo a series of moral violations to actually exist in this world.”
I mean, Puerto Ricans are defined as being from PUERTO RICO, where as we are defined as being from WHERE J.R.?
And i said “WHITE Puerto Ricans”.
I’ll leave you alone now.
You still didn’t answer my question earlier “ImMe”
As far as Puerto Rico so we get the story straight Spaniards brought slaves to the island which mixed with the native indians and also mixed with the Spaniards. So thats how you get your typical Puerto Rican. So let me give you a better visual. Puerto Rican = Spanish (from Spain)/ Black / and Indian(and this is not everyone from PR). Which is the similar story for Domincans, Cubans etc.
imma tell yall some shyt rite quick take it as you want. dude came to my school the otha day he travels the country talkn to colleges n he said that “black men commit 20% of the rapes in the united states, but they make up 80% of people in jail for it” tell me dats not racial profilin.
If an old black man, lets say 40+ years is racist, id understand, but young black people today, racist,, you havent been through shit, but act like you have… youre not slaves anymore, you havent lived like your grandfathers or granmothers…
How can ‘we’ not give the police all this power, by not “fucking up”.. So let me understand this, you guy’s don’t commit the crime, and the PO-leese won’t have a reason to arrest and charge you with the crime, being that is their job? Wow, must be something new………………………………
Take that damn mic away from this stupid little kid, ignorance is bliss though!
Racism goes both ways, I know more racist black people then white honestly. You ever tried being white and walking into a church’s chicken on the south side? Or a checkers? You better believe your shit’s gettin spit in. What about all the black people sayin ‘oh, I’ll kill a cop’. Or maybe, the one’s that actually start bustin off shot’s? You don’t think they remember that shit. I know damn right if i was a cop and i saw some dude drivin around suspicious on the south side, i would go up to his window gun already drawn. Society creates itself.
@ImMe -If you really want to get technical, Africans were brought to our country to do what? Be slaves, Okay it was wrong, so you were freed by one of our presidents and WHITE MEN fighting for YOUR freedom in OUR country’s civil war. SO, you’re no longer slaves but still in OUR country, and YOUR still not happy. So you start fighting for rights equal to ours( which you recieved ), But honestly, Who stopped you from leaving and going back? Nobody. Check the statistics anyways, Caucasians are the minority now, so any black man that wants to say shits against them, just lay back down and go to bed.
@ lolwut actually blacks make up only 14 percent of the U.S population and yet they make an impact that feels like their should be more of a percentage.
your as stupid as it gets, honestly go outside look around, look at our government, and all the celebrities and then come rephrase what you said
Why are you getting all sensitive and hostile for? and I don’t know what you mean with your last post. All I was saying (maybe you didn’t understand me) is that, fact: blacks make up 14% of the population. They make a big impact in our society and media. Which makes it seem like “they make up 50% of our population”. Hope you understand me now.
Im going to need for ya’ll to chill….Bowwow was right….it doesnt matter whether he said just black ppl or not…he was talking about black ppl thats all that matter…so i felt no need for anybody to come on here talking about race…it wasnt even about that…he feels like blacks as a whole need to step up….if you are white, latino, jamaican, haitian, and you feel like your ppl need to step it up…express it but dont try to get on us when we’re just trying to push ourselves up…another example of the other man trying to get us down!!!
