- See if you agree with me on this....Everlast is a'ight, whether he is
- Irish, Italian or fucking monkey...and the fact that he glorifies his
- ethnicity is something we should admire because that is something that
- most wannabes won't do in their struggle to be "black", this to me is
- one of the easiest ways to cross the color barrier.... be proud of your
- culture and of who you are,people will respect you for that, I damn sure
- am and why shouldn't anyone else be? (I'm Nigerian by the
- way)...Everlast has remained true to both his peeps and to hip-hop,so
- 'nuff respect due!
- In short, don't look at him as using it to get loot, 'cos a lot
- emcees do anything to make ends(sellouts etc.), he is glorifying his
- culture, just like James Brown (Say it loud...I'm black and Proud!) and
- many emcees have done and will continue to do.....
