While interviewing Soulja Boy for his Black Carpet show last week, Toure found out what a pathetic sambo Soulja Boy really is. Toure had asked the kiddie rapper about his most hated public figure. He couldn’t think of any public figures, but he sure had some well thought-out praise for the slave masters.
So,
Toure called him out:
I asked him, What historical figure do you most hate? He was stumped. I said, “Others have said Hitler, bin Laden, the slave masters…” He said, “Oh wait! Hold up! Shout out to the slave masters! Without them we’d still be in Africa.” My jaw, at this point, was on the ground.”We wouldn’t be here,” he continued, having no idea how far in it he’d stepped, “to get this ice and tattoos.”
Wow. Never mind that diamonds come from Africa. Never mind that there were many generations of pain in between leaving Africa and getting diamonds. Never mind that the long-term cataclysmic effects of subtracting about tens of millions of young, strong people from Africa over the course of a couple of centuries is a large part of the reason why Africa now appears so distasteful to you. Never mind all that, Soulja Boy. You put country first.
To his defense, Soulja Boy’s all around ignorance may not be his fault, because along with having no brains, an average jelly fish lacks the capacity to process any information that involves current events or knowledge of one’s history.
