Clueless coonette Chrisette Michelle x The Breakfast Club…

[#1hiphopjunki3]

India Arie is speaking facts like an adult. The world today is full of adult-aged children who never outgrew high school.

It's all, very clearly, her opinion, nothing necessarily "factual" about it.

If you want to agree, say that - but to say that people who are voicing their dissatisfaction with CM, are adult aged children, is itself childish.

People flaming India behind this have a point too. For example -

India spoke tons of facts in her post. And yeh, most of yall act like high-schoolers. "You sang for Trump, so I can't deal with you", how fucking childish does that sound? I've lost so much respect for society after the last few years, we really are becoming a joke. Anyone over the age of 25+ who is on this shit needs to seriously needs to re-evaluate what they're really about in life.

So what are you "about" and what you think a lot of people think about what you "act like" ?

Also, India Arie said that she wouldn't have performed and she doesn't agree with it either... which is pretty much what people are saying here. SO how can you agree with her, yet think everyone who disagrees with CM is childish ?

I think the whole coonhunt thing is what makes it childish.

Not sure what you mean by coonhunt, but if it's to say that calling her a coon is childish, then I gotta ask is she a coon or not ? If she did some coon shit, then what's childish about calling her a coon ?

The term is thrown around too much and here recently, it's not even representative of what the fuckin word actually means. In the rise of "black twitter" in the last 9 years, the word "coon" has taken on a new meaning altogether.

I think the word gets overused because there's so many coons out there.. from Kanye to Sheriff clark...

Chrisette may not be a coon, but she did some coon shit for cash, so she's definitely a Sellout if nothing else

I agree that it's a lot of sellouts and it might even be a decent amount of (so called) coons walking around in this age but I honestly feel it is more misguided souls.

I feel from watching The Breakfast Club interview that Chrisette believes she is more important than what she really is. I feel that a lot of these entertainers in general may have good intentions but go about trying to do things way over their realm of knowledge because of their deluded sense of self importance.

She, just like those other entertainers got played because they allowed themselves to be used as a mere photo op. They went to talk to Trump because their deluded sense of self importance made them feel like having a conversation with this man would actually make a difference. They think he would actually take into consideration what they had to say when he hasn't even given respect to actual people who have real knowledge of how the government should work for the people, how the environment is reacting to how we are effecting it and so forth.

He used their arrogance that he would actually value their opinion as a way for him to try and validate that he is far from being the bigot, racist and xenophobe that he portrayed himself to be during his campaign.

I didn't even need to see her interview to understand her perspective

I didn't have to hear No political genius to know where she was coming from

you literally sound like a dumbass "I'm not fucking with her cause she performed"

On one hand, you say stop putting entertainers on a pedestal but get mad when one don't act like a politician(full of shit)

Nobody got the answers or we wouldn't be having this argument but a bunch of weak mufuckas think they got the right to look down on her or take her imaginary black card

How fucking dare you...don't dare talk down on my lil bitch or shoot down her way if you don't have a counter that's been proven to work

Weak ass niggas sitting on your rose covered pedestals, throwing stones behind screens while you don't do shit to move the needle

A lot of people branding her names probably didn't vote in the presidential elections and secondly with Trump 'the monster' as Prez... what are you as an individual (Black American) gonna do about making his tenure cut short in office?

Looks like this place is gonna be filled up with threads about "coons" more often than not... getting tired

My bad if this was posted already, but here she is on CNN...

This shit was a bad idea from her and her team. If yall listen to every interview she has done you can see that she is promoting her new album, her tour and this new tv show she trying do.

Performing at the inauguration was the wrong way to try an reach the masses and promote her new stuff. She actually turned off more people to her new stuff than she actually got to give it a listen.

In the breakfast club interview she plugged her CD, tour and tv show she trying to start filming. She just plugged the cd and the tv on this cnn interview.

She was on Ricky Smiley show yesterday as well. I haven't listened to it so I can't say if she plugged anything or not.

This got her name out there but not in the way that she wanted. Her talking points for why she performed are just fucking dumb and make absolutely no fucking sense.

I'll give this coonette credit she's trying really hard to milk this thing for all it's worth...

 

[babelipsss]

It was my idea

 

[AZTG]

She coulda just said it was for respect for the office and she woulda performed for any president and how she is happy a conversation came out of it.

But instead, she is really pushing that im going to fight Hate with Love shit.

To say that means that she knows this dude, Trump, hates her black skin, and his supporters hate her black skin, but somehow she is going to show them that they are wrong by loving them.

I didnt really lose any respect to her for performing. I mean, I was at the gym running on inaguration day, looked up to the tv and saw her and shook my head, but was like fuck it, get that check mama. Idk what financial hardships she going through, and 750k aint nothing to shrug your shoulders at.

But, now she talking that I did for a specific reason, to make a change, to show love for people that hate me for my skin color shit and needs to shut the fuck up.

 

[i ro ny]

She said maxwell gave her love and support. U guys gonna boycott Maxwell and India Arie too now? Keep it consistent.

Also, her parents and siblings were supportive of her performing it was her older relatives that werent

Well, I'll start by saying that my parents and my brothers and my sister have been incredibly supportive. But I do have those older family members who understand the climate of civil rights and understand the activism of the '60s that only see this moment as hopeless. Those people were on the fence about anything American or anything progress in general. Many of those people don't even refer to themselves as Americans. While I love and adore them and I'll always appreciate them, I don't expect them to understand 2017's kind of civil rights activism.

i remember when maxwell tweeted something along the lines of "all lives matter".

that nigga got destroyed that day.

 

[rip.dilla]

Maxwell, India and Crisette all on that smooth soul non-mainstream lane musically...

They probably look up for each other... in times like this

The bolded is my takeaway from that interview. I lost the little false respect I had for her. I thought she was a somewhat intelligent artist when I first heard of her. But after hearing this shit, I feel like this bitch been full of shit the whole time and probably why she didn't blow up like I thought she should have.

Just sounds way too - either fake, air-headed, or thick-headed.

Instead of saying something concrete, she's talking about she was trying to accomplish some intangible bullshit.

There are frustrated people about their own lives and choices so they try to misplace it to her choices. It says a lot about people's characters and outlooks on life when they insult and call people names and all that type of thing for them doing their legal job (which is the situation in this case). Like they say point one finger 3 more are pointing at you. Everybody aint gon agree on everything but The people doing all that have issues and its not CM's fault or doing. Like she said black twitter isnt everybody or all black people its like 60000 or whatever. I never been on twitter or none of that I avoid all that insanity. I think she should too. Some people have issues she cant fix. Ultimately thats their issues not hers. They wish she could be their scapegoat but ultimately that type thing doesnt work and they stay in the same place. Gotta understand that.

United would be not agreeing but having her back and supporting her intent, whether agreeing with the method or not

Who'd she hurt by performing

Oh no, white folks going think less of us now

 

[nex gin]

The zero fucks Donald gave about y'all black asses before Chrisette's performance...

The zero fucks Donald gave about y'all black asses after Chrisette's performance...

Nigguhs always try to justify their bullshit w/ more bullshit. I would've respected her more if she just said she did it for the $$.
