AGAIn.. PEREZ U SUCK ASS!
third.cool
YOUR PIANO IS OUT OF TUNE SPADE! how do they get away with millions and call this music. DIAF and Kelis is a very ugly example of a black woman.
i can understand where he's coming from but i still don't really enjoy hearing racial slurs every 3 seconds.
Hmm first i will start by saying that I am a black female… Ok, all that PC shit out of the way.
I only had to get 10 seconds in to disagree Perez…This is only powerful if you believe in all the conspiracy theory Nas was spitting. I am disappointed actually. Music is a powerful platform…but unfortunately he let me down. The mentality that he seems to have (as portrayed through his lyrics) that "holds our race down". Instead of making excuses for why our minority race is struggling, I wish these vocal black icons would discuss realistic ways to make changes while addressing that a lot of the shit we go through is our own fault…
Oh well…let me know when a black icon's willing to except the repercussions of our own actions, regardless of the "white mans' instigation…
nas is amazing. it's too bad most people who read this site won't appreciate it.
PIANO IS OUT OF TUNE. stupid black guys., black men arent talented and they dont even know when theyre instrument is out of tune. we should boycott this racist. and make sure Kelis gets AIDS.
please god please dont let this stupid blacks make music anymore. YOUR PIANO IS OUT OF TUNE and I HOPE KELIS GETS AIDS.
still iffy on the n word. but i liked it.
doin good nas!
not impressed. life is hard for lots of people. this isn't making it any better. its a pity party.
I THINK IT'S TOTALLY DISGUSTING HOW BRITNEY SPEARS PARENTS HAVE CLEANED HER UP AND KEPT HER OUT OF TROUBLE AND THE PUBLIC EYE.
IT'S COMPLETE BS.
It's sad that there are people still pushing the race card, instead of trying to push an agenda of success for their own people. How long will we have to listen to people blame slavery for everything in life. Worry about your education, worry about your family, make your own life your goals, be an example to other people, treat people like you want to be treated. . .and SUCCEED!
He has a point and some of what he's saying is still true to this day…however, we're not living in the 1900's anymore. Times have changed and will continue to change…its not perfect, but its like it was.
the concept is from the 25th hour

Wonder if Dr. Pepper got PAID??
I have spoken…

HILARIOUS!
that was the biggest piece of crap I have seen in a long time. what a disappointment from Nas..and do not call me a guinea just because your black…
Geez, do black people ever think about anything except how they used to be slaves?
dumb song dumb video. he just wants to gain atention for shocking us. he's just another famous dumb ignorant black rapper making blacks look even worse. too bad there's ony one will smith. to think that many pathetic blacks feed into this and look up to him is disgusting.
the pianos supposed to be of tune yo retard your missing the point
Be careful kids not spending your life being a color. I am as white as it gets but we all must take PERSONAL RESPONSIBILITY for every single action, every single second of every single day for our entire lives.
Crazy Americans,,,,you guys will never find your way…you're always talking about how fucked your country is and you don't even realize it or really care or better yet how bout coming together to change it rather than pulling apart.
You usually post alot of BS we indulge on on a daily basis about who's wearing what and how many pounds and what a mess, d list… BLAH BLAH BLAH… BUT WHEN YOU POST REAL MUSIC, REAL PEOPLE, REAL NEWS, I REALIZE YOU'RE NOT JUST A GOSSIP BLOGGER… YOU'RE INNOVATIVE!!! Who else would post this video??? how else would I have seen it? NO television network would have posted it and nowhere would we have found it without being censored… SO YOU KNOW WHAT PEREZ… F*CK YOUR HATERS, SPOILED "STARS", UNTALENTED BITCHES (avril jijiji), AND KEEP ON SPILING THEIR MESS OF LIVES SO YOU CAN ENTERTAIN US ****AND**** THANK YOU FOR ENLIGHTNING ME WITH THIS MUSIC… I WAS NEVER A FAN UNTIL TODAY! XOXO
Re: shanno –
well put!!! why doesn't he use some of that fucking money he has and go adopt a hood….hmm
this music is from Yann Tiersenn's soundtrack of Goodbye, Lenin!
Nas stole it….what a cunt!!!
cunt cunt cunt cunt cunt
ARE YOU BEING A DELETE WHORE AGAIN PEE-REZ? IT'S REALLY NOT ATTRACTIVE!!!!
I HAVE SPOKEN… AND HEED MY WARNING.. OTHER WISE IT'S NOT JUST THE HOT TOPIC LINE THAT WILL FAIL!!!
Post Script:
While not necessarily my views, this is proof that music is powerful. I bet this video never gets played, I bet this song never gets played, I bet it makes a lot of people think, I bet it pisses a lot of people off, and that is what music should do.
Foot in mouth, I will say it's powerful…mainly because i'm already seeing the dumb borderline racist comments. For the few post above me…if you dont' like the song how about tell us why intelligently. It's a bit hypocritical to tell the "stupid black man" to stop making music while you nitpick over the piano pitches and wish AIDS upon him and his wife…(at least come up with a clever original racist comment)…
Not impressed!
Re: Lilya – perez is based out of the usa in case you didn't know…shut up and go back to wherever you came from…no one cares what you think about america
lame
tHAT SOUNDS LIKE A SERIOUS THREAT TO ME pEREZ!
a black man is going to win for president of the united states, move the fuck on. it's people like this who only ebcourage racism to prevail.
wow. actually hate this. it glorifies everything wrong in the world today. personally i see at as the world taking a leap back, not a step forward. im kinda embarrased…. love you perez, but not lovin this in the least bit.
Honestly, I wanted to hate it but found myself listening to the end, yeah. So anyway I do like the music but not so the lyrics. I mean really we're suppose to teach our children to never use that word, and as long as it's being repeated in lyrics we're never going to move forward!
I don't like this video…I'm a black female and it just leaves a bad taste in my mouth…two thumbs down…I can't support that…
WOW WHAT A RACIST PIECE OF SHIT WE NEVER SHOULD HAVE SAILED HIS GRANDFATHER OVER HERE
uhhh …. wow!
awesome beat! but of course, it's nas.
I liked the 99 problems video by J better…but I respect NAS in general but not really connecting with the video/song…then the lynching scene…I could have done without but A for effort on the shock value. I just wanna bring back the "A Tribe Called Quest Days"…
Re: HUNTER –
that's harsh!
i'm really very concerned about the gas prices rising every second. what r we going to do? that asshole bush put the u.s. in debt. he has got to be he worst president in history.
i am so tired of the slavery input. that did not happen in this lifetime and nobody in this lifetime is responsible. furthermore, how about just one time somebody acknowledging the fact that the almighty AFRICA is who SOLD the slaves to america (and several other countries) in the first freaking place.
that was a hot track..Nas is the king…….everyone knows how ill he is with his lyrics LOL.
Watch naked Britney Spears music video on defSpot com if you are not into Nas damn
Re: CHRIST –
I think i'd get a restraining order if i were you perez!
Oil is up to $135.00 a barrel right now!
..is that
…. is that HAROLD, from harold and kumar?!
06:42
Perez you dumb shit, ah, really moving…. if it was 1950, maybe then it would have some relevance, now it's just a black rapper who is worth millions pretending it's 1950 to sell CD's and promote black grievances.
I was 10 or 11 when I first heard the "N" word. my step brother (who was visiting and 22 yrs old) called me that after he saw my friend Malcolm and I playing in the back yard. I didnt know what he meant by it but Malcolm did and left to go home. When I asked my parents what that word meant I almost got hot mustard on my tongue. They asked me where I heard that word and I told them that my brother said I was one. He got told to leave and he did. My parents called Malcolm's parents and totally apologized, but Malcolm didnt tell his parents what had happened. He was was afraid that his parents wouldnt let us play together anymore. His parents had said numerous times that it is okay to be friends with me but white girls are not good enough to marry …. keep in mind we were like 10. Everything worked out. 19 years later … Malcolm and I are still friends!
I love and respect Nas but I dislike that he is painting all caucasians with the same white brush. Not all think this way, not even most I hope! I am ashamed of those who do … all shades that do.
I am white, and have many black friends, but this is not a step in a right direction.
All it does is add more fuel to the fire, especially since black culture is already shunned upon by many.
Yes a powerful song, agreed. But this just brings out racism more, he uses sexual slang.
He did this song out of money, not of soul.
Rappers like him DO NOT make it any easier for black people.
Re: loon –
I know right…why do ppl come on here and talk shit about perez…yet they are probably on here every day 24-7…GET A LIFE!!! PEREZ ROCKS…if you don't like him….then……heres the kicker….DON'T GO ON HIS SITE!!!
LOVE YOU PEREZ…YOUR THE FUNNIEST MOTHER FUCKER OUT THERE
come on. enough of this kind of crap. Step up to the plate people. There are plenty of us white folks that know your pain, and realize what you've gone through and will be here to back you up if you give us half a chance. But, you gotta stop defeating yourselves first, and this is not it. The past is gone, step up, you who have the courage.
The words and delivery are well done, but that damn music is wack as hell. No lie.
get a real job you ass licker.
Great way to remain ignorant, and divide people. This isn't empowerment. This is more hate. I am so sick of this "holding a n*gga down" bullshit. If my son ever says this word to someone or about someone or himself, I will beat his ass. He is black btw. We don't 'slave talk' like that. We keep him educated and above this trash right here.
I Love This Song, And Those Who Say They Hate It, Secretly Love It Even More!!!
Typical garbage.
Next.

the beat was alright,
but the song itself…
it doesn't progress, at all.
kinda sucks.
by the way, the thing right below the box to put your comment in reads:
"comments to "Wow!""
so stop talking shit about Perez,
Who the fyck talks shit about someone but helps them get even more famous by visiting their website and helping them get more hits?
you're an idiot if you talk shit about him and then comment about him ON HIS OWN WEBSITE…
think about that shit.
Wow, I wish people could stop living in all this hatred and move on. Everyone says they want shit to change but when we constantly hear this degrading stuff it doesn't help the situation. It's like you keep living in the past rather than just moving on. Back in the day people on the street wouldn't even acknowledge a person of color. Now? It's completely different. Everyone is viewed equally, sure there are some racist people, but the majority could give two shits anymore what color your skin is. Just because there are racist people who are white does not mean that all white people are racists, get over it. I also agree with Mary. Slavery didn't happen during anyone's lifetime nowadays and no one from this lifetime is responsible for it. I can't help what happened in the past, and neither can anyone else so what's the point in living in it? It was extremely horrible and we all feel bad about it, but the past is what helps change the future. If the people from back then came to the world we live in now, I think they would all be extremely happy that the pain and suffering they went through led to where we all are today. While there are still a ton of problems we all face today we should all take the time to realize how much the world has changed for the better, and who knows? maybe in 150 years life will be a million times better than it is now. We all just need to stop the hatred against one another.

If a country singer came out with a song with lyrics, "I'm a cracker, he's a cracker, she's a cracker, we some crackers, wouldn't you like to be a cracker too?" they would be ostracized by our society — and rightfully so. There should be no room in our society for songs that throw around racial slurs with such ease. How is the future of race relations ever going to improve from the past when people cling to previous generations wrong doings? Songs like this don't promote change, they just widen the divide… And since when is 8 minutes of a derogatory term repeated OVER AND OVER considered insightful, or music for that matter? If this song isn't a form of self deprecation and racism I don't know what is… This is nothing but downright offensive.
#1 - Very ignorant for a gay man to support this
#2 - The track was ripped off
#3 - Using Black & White to symbolize a song about racism? Wow! Director deserves an Oscar…. please - what a joke - far from brilliant, However, I am sure BET will mindlessly give it video of the year
#4 - I'd prefer Kanye's narcissism to this junk and Im not a fan of Kanye. At least Kanye's is a publicity stunt that doesn't invoke hate. I can only imagine how many young black males are sadly brainwashed as a result of this into trying to immortalize the uzi toating behavior encouraged here
#5 Nas, a seemingly a creative person completely resorted to encouraging violence which is counterintuitive to any notion of creativity. violence is a result of not knowing how to express yourself thus the easier path in life. challenge yourself and your followers by creating something profound not an old piece of garbage that's been recreated over and over
#6 Guarantee you Nas will have very little if any to say publicly about this. In my opinion he doesn't even have a real message here, simply just trying to be cool at the expense of those who he is claiming to be behind. Of course in his supporters views he'll be considered a genious for saying nothing
#7 Complete cop-out and a miserable creation for such a verteran artist.
#8 Only way this would have been interesting is if Eminem sang it
#10 I truly feel sorry for people who think this is compelling work/art. Truly!
Re: Cherie –
I don't recall that we ever had a 22 yr old step brother or a black friend named Malcolm.
You don't hear Jews screaming,"I'm a Jew Bag, she's a Jew bag, wouldn't ya like ta be a Jwe bag too?" I hope Dr. Pepper sues him BROKE.

A person would have to on some serious drugs to think that Perez was the "funniest mother fucker out there". SEEEERIOUS DRUGS!

Obahma is tryin to move us forward and NAS backwards. I never seen NAS pickin cotton or me standin over him making him.
We all just need to stop the hatred against one another.
Heed your own advice and stop spreading cruel rumours about ppl like Ashley Tisdale why don't ya?!
How is this song powerful?
I am a fan of rap and hip hop. I have heard so many different sounds and different topics on all ranges.
But, this is nothing new. How is this powerful when all he does is spout N-words over and over while looking into a mirror with the N-word written on the mirror?
So unoriginal. I can't believe I even watched the whole thing hoping something would strike me.
That photoshopped picture of Kathy Griffith is more powerful than that video!
They had to make it black and white just to try to achieve some level of drama.
Lame.

so sick, so sick, need a doc yes
Re: mary –
lol
Awesome video… just because a person makes you think about race relations from another perspective besides your own does make him racist. Stop being afraid of analyzing yourself and the culture of the USA.
i thought it was amazing, i listened to it twice
seriously - this is pretty lame, no one is oppressed that much anymore. We need to unite instead of tear apart - SHAME ON YOU NAS
Re: rosend –
For God's sake GET A LIFE!
Re: traci –
Geez, YOU TOO!
Okkay.. I am black and I agree… step in the wrong direction.
yes.. it's powerful.
yes.. there is still racism.
but I can attest that there are ton's of accepting people out there.. especially in our generation. The only way we are ever going to get past it is if everyone (including us african americans) can truly LET GO of the past and quit harping on it over and over and over.
I am a successful african american college graduate with an amazing job and lots of friends of every background. I think many people of "color" spend too much time focusing on fighting and in the defensive mode rather than focusing on how to progress.
My grandparents came from Norway and never owned slaves. My other grandparents were German and they didn't own slaves either. Stop painting all white people with the same brush you dumbass. I would buy Kanye's album before I would ever consider this. Kanye is about empowerment. This is a waste of talent and at best, good for the garbage can. I expected so much more out of Nas. Well, he has always kind of been a racist bastard so… there you have it. This is not brilliant. This is degrading in more ways than one to every set of ears it falls on.
NAS STOLE THIS SONG
www.cuntthis.com
Um…this is no way to get Obama elected…
Just sayin…
Re: dd – he isn't glorifiying racism …. he's putting it out there… everyone likes to ignore racisim like it doesn't exist and it clearly still is a problem in America
WHOOOAAAAA NAS..IT MAY JUST BE THE BOTTLE OF WINE IVE BEEN ENJOYING, BUT THE VID GAVE ME GOOSE BUMPS ALL OVER MY BODY!!!!!!!
