"i feel he (belafonte) went about it wrong. and then he bigged up bruce springsteen.
you're this big civil rights activist and you just bigged up the white guy against me to the white media. thats just the wrong way to go about it"
I'm gonna post the whole comment:
I’m offended by that because first of all, and this is going to sound arrogant, but my presence is charity. Just who I am. Just like Obama’s is. Obama provides hope. Whether he does anything, the hope that he provides for a nation, and outside of America is enough. Just being who he is. You’re the first black president. If he speaks on any issue or anything he should be left alone…I felt Belafonte he just went about it wrong. Like the way he did it in the media, and then he big’d up Bruce Springsteen or somebody. And it was like, “whoa,” you just sent the wrong message all the way around…Bruce Springsteen is a great guy. You’re this Civil Rights activist and you just big’d up the white guy against me in the white media. And I’m not saying that in a racial way. I’m just saying what it is. The fact of what it was. And that was just the wrong way to go about it.
jay could
possibly have a valid argument, but at the same time he's so vague with his.
It would have been better if he said "my arrogance is charity"..smh.
I guess Jay didn't like the fact that Belafonte called Bruce Springsteen "a Black man".
"My arrogance is charity"?? that isnt even coherent, I have no clue what that means, so no, it would NOT have better if he said that
I understand exactly what he said, the way he said
