ICE CUBE - BLACK KOREA LYRICS

Quote:

"Twenty D Energizers."
"Twenty, C Energizer?"
"D, not C, D."
"B Energizer?"
"D motherfucker, D! Learn to speak english first, alright? D!"
"How many you say?"
"Twenty, motherfucker, twenty."
"Honey..."
"Mother-fuck you!"
Everytime I wanna go get a fuckin' brew
I gotta go down to the store with the two
Oriental one-penny countin' motherfuckers
They make a nigga mad enough to cause a little ruckus
Thinkin' every brother in the world's out to take
So they watch every damn move that I make
They hope I don't pull out a gat and try to rob
They funky little store, but bitch, I got a job
{Look you little Chinese motherfucker
I ain't tryin' to steal none of yo' shit, leave me alone}
Yo yo, check it out
So don't follow me, up and down your market
Or your little chop suey ass will be a target of the nationwide boycott
Juice with the people, that's what the boy got
So pay respect to the black fist
Or we'll burn your store, right down to a crisp
And then we'll see ya
'Cause you can't turn the ghetto, into Black Korea
Asshole, fuck you

Excerpt from that song

Quote:

Fuck a (white)devil, fuck a rebel and a yankee
Overrun and put the Presidency
After needin' that, I'm down wit O.P.P., yeah

And now you ask if I'm a five-percenter, well

ICE CUBE LYRICS - Cave Bitch

Quote:

---

[Intro: Dr. Khalid Muhammed]

Give me a black goddess sister I can't resist her. No stringy haired, blonde
hair, blue eyed, pale skinned buttermilk complexion. Grafted, recessive,
depressive, ironing board backside straight up and straight down. No
frills, no thrills, Miss six o'clock, subject to have the itch, mutanoid,
caucazoid, white cave bitch...

[Verse One: Ice Cube]

Ease back white bitch, I don't play that
Just because I got on my L.A. hat
Stalkin' walking in my big black boots
Is my jingle, now you want Mandingo
Big, black and handsome
I should hold your devil ass for ransome
Sorta like Patty Herst, but I'll burst first bitch
And you know what's worse
I'm coming from the land where the choppers roam
So phuck you bitch and your Coppertone
Stringy hair - no derrier - frontin' and fakin' with your silicone pair
Do I wanna phuck? Not hardly
That's kinda like Barbie phuckin' Bob Marley
It ain't gonna happen, I keep rappin'
Muthaphuck Teniell, but see I'm the Captain of this ship
And I'm true to the game
Ya all look the same
Standin' by my backstage door, hopin' that'll switch
Spread out you little cave bitch

[Verse Two: Ice Cube]

Why everytime we get famous
You wanna play us like Andy and Amos?
The devil sent you to try and tame us
But you can't tame me, with no bitch named Amy
Lookin' for the dark meat
But ho, I ain't tryin' to go out like Barkely
Cuz everytime I turn on the TV
I see several brothers with she-devils
Smilin' cuz you out on a date
But sooner or later, the bitch'll yell rape
Soon as daddy found out you a jigaboo
He'll kill like he did Emmitt Till
Yah, he tried to kick bass
But the bitch probably threw it in his face
Sargent Bale ain't nothin' but a trick
Nasty as hell, stanky little cave bitch

[Verse Three:]

Now don't think that I hate you
Cuz I won't date you, bitch I gotta stay true
You can be a fan, but don't expand
And try to get my dick in your hand
You better run to the minute man
Pale as snow, so act like y'know
Cuz if I slap it, flip it, and rub it like that
Yeah, it gotta be black
Plus yo ass too flat
I need a butt big enough that can clap
Rat-a-tat-tat
You can't get mine ho
I'd rather phuck an albino
Atleast I know, she's comin' from the Nubian
And not the Ku Klux Klan that you be in
And I don't give a fuck if your family is rich
You're still a little cave bitch

ICE CUBE LYRICS - Enemy

Quote:

And here's Ice-T crying about Rush Limbaugh. Old story from 2012...

Ice-T: Rush Limbaugh is a 'racist piece of'... - POLITICO.com

Here's some of his lyrics - "Now I'm black but black people trip 'cause white people like me; white people like me I but don't like them. . . . I don't hate whites, I just gotta death wish for motherfuckers that ain't right";

I find that highly amusing...considering that fool's skin tone is butterscotch ;D

And superwhore "V.Stiviano" (soon to be a reality tv star....yeah I'll go ahead and call that one) walks around like this...

....soooo either she just got done welding or she is actually Michael Jackson

Funny how she wants her privacy :rolleyes:



I wonder if the players who are now happy with him (Sterling) being gone...would also be okay with being secretly recorded without their knowledge?

Call me crazy but I think there would be some players caught saying some not-so pc things ;)

The point being this man who is a multi millionaire has probably been discriminating minorities for years and imagine the damage he must have caused to people lives.

Master, I am not going to defend Donald Sterling's views however you have to think a few things through here

#1 The tape used against him was a private conversation.
#2 The NBA and everybody who is anybody knew Mr. Sterling wasn't racially kind from the get go.
#3 Sterling lost the largest court case ever on HOUSING DESCRIMINATION in 2003 for not wanting to rent to latinos and/or black people (so apparently that was ok for an NBA owner to do)
#4 Donald Sterling might have racist views, but HE owns a team paying millions of dollars to black athletes who ACCEPT that money

and #5 he's a billionaire not a millionaire...kind of a big difference



Not saying Donald Sterling isn't an asshole, but if you use the same tactics used against Sterling against shit anyone else you're going to dig up trash that the general public might not like.




and #6 It only really became an issue when the Clippers started winning, coincidence????

Floyd says he is interested in buying the Clippers.

True...and he has.

In 2006: U.S. Dept. of Justice sued Sterling for housing discrimination. Allegedly, he said, “Black tenants smell and attract vermin.”

In 2009: He reportedly paid $2.73 million in a Justice Dept. suit alleging he discriminated against blacks, Hispanics, and families with children in his rentals.

Also in 2009: Clippers executive (and one of the greatest NBA players in history Elgin Baylor) sued for employment discrimination based on age and race.

People apparently knew he was like this and still chose to play/work for him. That's why I was :headscratch: when I heard he was getting a NAACP award.

What for? Most improved racist ;D

With all his billions he isnt really bothered.

Being jewish himself he should know better..

The NAACP LA Chapter said that they looked the other way because of his donations. The President of that chapter has since resigned.

The guy's an asshole and deserves to be banned from the NBA. Bottom line.

The fact that the NBA and all these outraged groups are a bunch of phony motherfuckers who knew he was a racist and are only now reacting doesn't give the guy a free pass.

True....but again tapes from a private conversation. That is a slippery legal slope. Want to ban him? Fine, ban him in 2003, 2006, 2009...don't wait for this shit. The other owners won't open themselves up to be ousted in a similar manner. Rachel Nichols of CNNSI already said the next target might bethe owner of the Orlando Magic who all he's done is just oppose gay marriage which like it or not is a legitimate standpoint or at least used to be. we've just seen the CEO of Mozilla get kicked out for a similar point of view nothing else nothing criminal just that it's beginning to encroach on free speech. Harry Reid wants to go after Dan Snyder just because the name of the team he owns is the Washington Redskins which he considers racist so he wants to remove the owner forcibly if necessary. I'm sorry but I consider that wrong

It's not really a free speech issue, as no one is really trying to censor Donald Sterling. But the league and any other employer should have the right to terminate an employee if they deem that their actions or ideologies are harmful to the company.

The privacy issue is the more interesting discussion. On one hand I feel bad for Sterling, because we've all said horrible, politically incorrect things in the safety of our private lives, completely off any record.

But how do you put the toothpaste back in the tube? We all know he's a racist (those of us who never heard about his housing scandal were brought up to speed), so how do you undo that? It's a tough situation. We're not dealing with a criminal case where, because the evidence was obtained illegally, the case is thrown out and everything's hunky dory. This is public perception, and I can't fault the league for banning a guy who's prejudice against an entire race, especially a race that has historically been dominant in sport in question.

Donald Sterling is not an employee of the NBA he is the owner of a franchise. Mr Sterling could shit all over the NBA's plans to remove him from by just giving the franchise to his wife. Judging from how he has handled previous court cases he will not go down without a fight he is going to be very stubborn and very difficult. It is not an easy situation obviously but to use recordings of a private conversation as the main reason to remove him from ownership is a slippery slope. The NBA new about what kind of person Donald sterling was when he bought the team and if not they knew very soon thereafter what kind of person he was to be outraged now is ridiculous and phony. He's a morally reprehensible character no doubt about it but you should always go about these kinds of issues in a proper way so as not to set a bad precedent.

after Donald sterling is removed from ownership what next where is the line? what can somebody say what can't somebody say are private conversations acceptable as reasons or evidence to remove someone from ownership? People are getting caught up just wanting to read the NBA of Donald sterling and I think it's set up for precedent going forward and other NBA owners agree and will not sign the documents or agree to have Donald sterling removed from that quickly and for something that is not admissible in any court room because they have too much at stake to let something that in essence is legally trivial doom their respective personal empires.

Again though, we're not talking about something that has to be admissible in court. Public perception is, for better or for worse, beyond the scope of what's legal. OJ Simpson was found innocent in a court of law, but did he go back to his movie "career" and endorsement deals with Hertz and other companies? The public perception was that he got away with murder and those companies wouldn't dream of touching him. Right or wrong, it is what it is. If Donald Sterling was tried in court on the count of being racist, he'd walk because the evidence was gathered illegally. That's irrelevant to public opinion: the only thing that matter is what he said, and that it was indeed him saying it, which of course has been confirmed.

There seems to be this notion that free speech means that you can say whatever you want, free of consequence, and that's just not how it works. Free speech gives you the right to say what you want (within the law), but people also have the right to respond to what you said either positively or negatively. NBA is well within it's rights to ban Sterling and fans are well within their rights to protest, boycott, ect.
