It Must Be ya Ass...



After watching that Deelishis (did I spell that right?) video, I must say that I enjoyed the visuals (the song was pretty whack though).

Aside from the 25% hard on, it also put the nail in the coffin on what used to be one of my humanitarian efforts.

The relationship between women and Hip Hop (today) is like Ike and Tina... and that's putting it mildy. I bet that Ike and Annie Mae had a a lot of happy times, but the only thing we remember about those two is rolling rivers, throwing punches and "eat ya cake Annie Mae!" Hip Hop is a lot like that. We had our Queen Latifah, Ladies First, U-N-I-T-Y moments, but when all is said and done, "it must be ya ass cause it ain't your face" and "back that azz up" will FAR outweigh the positive female contributions to the game.

A lot of this is the fault of women.

It's hard to have sympathy for, or take up for a group of people who have none their damn self (and yes, this can double as a message to Black folk in general as well). I apologize in advance for not being compassionate about the plight of Karrine "Superhead" Steffans or any other video vixen/turned industry jump off who sold some T&A and a wet tongue for fame. I apologize for no longer giving a fuck about the video models mistreatment and I apologize if, as a man, I can no longer take your "it's more to me than a pretty face and a phat ass" comments seriously because... well, you made a name for yourself BECAUSE of your pretty face and phat ass.

I've come to the conclusion that certain women just don't give a fuck about being degraded and I honestly believe that deep down, some of them actually like it. It's certaintly no surprise that sex sells, it sold yesterday, it sold today and it'll sell tomorrow.

Hell, prostitution is older than Jesus.

However, when one continues to play up ASSets and play down everything else, it's no wonder why I can't look at a woman like Deelishus, or Superhead, or *insert name here* and don't automatically see the Mother Teresa in them that must be dying to get out underneath the lack of clothes.

On the flip side, that's not to say that the women who do choose to act like they weren't raised by wolves deserve to be disrespected by us men folk. In fact, I believe that those who, by choice or plain ignorance fail to make the distinction between a classy lady and a jump off missed a couple lessons of home training (and perhaps the jump offs did too, so maybe they were made for each other... alas, the Circle of Life)

In this life, you reap what you sew and if the seams of your jeans are busting out, you can't be surprised to feel a palm on the back of your ass.

Maybe we were just trying to fill the void.

And now, back to the show...
