DON IMUS/OPRAH

Don Imus

Born July 23, 1940 is an American comedian, writer, and FORMER radio and television talk show host. BLA BLA BLA…… Note the word former, Don Imus was the don(pun intended) when it came to the radio. He has even be called the larry king of radio actually he is, well except he is dirty mouthed while larry is smart-mouthed. If you are american or lived there and owned a radio set you have to know him, Radio hall of famer.

Well the question now is, why the former in his title. I mean what could drive a man so strong and powerful to be fired from his position. Is it because of a racist comment he made? NO, Is it because he is sexist? NO, Is it because the sponsors of the TV program threatened to pull out? YES. Why did the sponsors pull out?, is because they are anti-racist NO, is it because they were threatened by the black community to be boycotted? YES. If you asked me if racism existed I woulda said no like last year but all I can say now is come and spend 8 months in an eastern european country.

For those of you who do not know what Don Imus said, He called college basketball women nappy-headed hos (click on the hyper link for meaning). This man has always been one to say very controversial things but I guess this was over the top. He calls arabs ragheads, Called jews ; theiving jews and once accepted to hiring a black man to make “NIGGER” jokes. Hey I am black but I still do not think that makes him racist, in this world a white man cannot make black jokes and get away with it but a black man can. Don Imus is a known charity giver even to black men, he is not racist. He was just stupid and dumb and in the process of trying to stir controversy as he always does, ended up saying something wrong. I definitely am not down with Imus but neither am I with the same people who ignored the KKKramer incident.

To the most interesting part of this all, OPRAH and her controllers accepting Don Imus reason being that he heard it from hiphop. I will like to know what the chances are that an old ass white man like Don Imus listens to hiphop. How can oprah take the blame solely away from this grown man and turn it into rappers and black people insult there women. Look yeah I have been a hiphop head since 2002? Not long but I damn sure know every relevant hiphop song, I HAVE NEVER HEARD THE PHRASE NAPPY HEADED(nullus). I damn sure did not even know what it meant, screw this shit. Ohh the rappers call women whores, NO YOU FOOL. They call whores WHORES, what you think that ludacris when he was saying I got whores. He actually meant he had girls? If a girl be messing around with a guy who got 100 other girls, THEN SHE A WHORE. That does not mean every girl is a whore, damn doesn’t even up to 0.0001% of them are. They are musicians half of the girls they meet are groupies(whores). I got six sisters AINT one of them whores, they proper raised up LADIES. So for Don Imus to call a COLLEGE team full of women on scholarships WHORES is unwarranted. It is in no way related to hiphop, and to end it all AINT NOBODY WANNA BE WID A WHORE(no homo)
