Ayo this Ironman Starks again aka the Emerald Wizard aka Marcus Garvey Reincarnated. Word. Im humbled that yall little internet niggas is findin some humor in a nigga trials n tribulations n shit. The god need yall niggas to heed these scriptures but a nigga want yall to see the bright sky behind them storm clouds too yo. Cos as yall know the shit that dont kill a nigga only gon make a nigga stronger. Well unless the shit that tried to kill a nigga was a muthafuckin truck nahmeans. If a muthafuckin truck hit a nigga n a nigga go flyin in the air like a fuckin paper ball for half a block that shit gon fuck a nigga up. If a nigga land wit his shoulders all popped out n knees folded forwards that shit aint gonna just snap back together nahmeans. That shit gon fuck a nigga up. Niggas paralyzed from the neck down cant do shit. Thats my word. So as ya know there be holes in theories like that in actual fact. Word. Matter fact if a nigga get shot in the stomach n has to shit in a bag for the rest of that nigga fucked up life thats actually some tragic shit too yo! Im sayin how you gon roll up on a broad n try n pull that bitch when you got a bag of shit tied to ya waist nahmeans? That shit gotta fuck wit a nigga confidence namasayin. Like you got a bag of shit on ya waist n how you supposed to pounce on a bitch n be like word yo you look good n shit how bout you let a nigga buy you a drink n shit? Bitch gon look at you like nigga is that a bag of shit on ya belt yo? Meanwhile there 200 niggas in that fuckin club that aint got no bag of shit on they belt nahmean! Thats some real fucked up odds for the nigga wit that colostomy bag yo. Ayo I aint even know how a nigga got on this topic but rest assured the god thankful for makin it thru some hard times nahmeans. A nigga done slept eight to a bed when we was kids namsayin. A nigga had hand me down draws n shit. Niggas was rockin 3rd n 4th generation draws that cousins done worn n shit. Elastics all stretched out wit the permanent skid marks inside n shit. Once again that kinds of shit fuck wit a nigga ego nahmeans. But a nigga emerged from the ashes like an iron phoenix n shit. Nigga done took bullets. The god done got shot the fuck up n alla that. But I aint like to brags about none a that namsayin. Cos that shit aint nuthin ta glorify to the tadpoles nahmeans. Ayo the cubs look up to the lions in the jungle namsayin. Word. N the god be tryna set a positive example n be a good role models for these young muthafuckas. The little bambino gambinos nahmeans. They the future. Word yo.
Aight peace.
Shit is ill
9th Fell off? Get outta here
Ghostface runs 2dbz now iSwea lol
Shake and Meka need to allow Ghost admin rights, NOW.
Marcus Garcey wasn’t the man who taught about the Talented Tenth. It was W.E.B. Dubois you “smart-dumb mothefucker”. Meka, if you’re gonna preach at least get your facts straight.
Yup ,Sift is right. The Talented Tenth was WEB Dubois. 10% of all Black men have the power to be leaders in this world but most Black men at the time didnt have the time to engage themselves in education, be involved in social change, etc. so they couldn’t use that natural talent that they have. So That Marcus Garvey pic is kinda irrelevant
thankyou theadore (G.FACE) HAHA
Sift < lol u went jessica fletcher oh Meka there ha.
Alfie 0 <co sign.
but first we need a G.F top 20/30 rundown of best albums of 2010 as a litmus test lol.
Like you got a bag of shit on ya waist n how you supposed to pounce on a bitch n be like word yo you look good n shit how bout you let a nigga buy you a drink n shit? Bitch gon look at you like nigga is that a bag of shit on ya belt yo?
^^^^^
ahahahahhah
Pretty Dope…beat reminds me of some old Busta Rhymes Intro/Flipmode Sh!t from the 90′s…
9th Fell Off U Buggin This Shit Is Bananas Act Proof Is Fuckin Next Yo
hey Sift….i guess for all..the “SMART Muthafuckas” ..instead of you doing a fuckin “Wiki” Search on the Talented Tenth, and seeing that WEB Dubois wrote a thesis on that….you might wanna come to the conclusion that Marcus Garvey would be considered in that Tenth Percentile of BLACK LEADERS!…get your facts straight..and think outside the box…. “smart guy”. Lemme put it simple and plain for you….. MARCUS GARVEY not the one who TAUGHT about the Talented 10th…but actually IN THE TALENTED 10TH IDIOT…. ..catch up…damn.
Hot shit. I’m feelin where 9th is goin wit the new label. I hope a mends can be made wit Little Brother.
They really don’t disappoint.
And 9th fell off?? Wow, I swear anything for a negative comment right?
THANK YOU WHATSMYNAME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
^^ LOL I think 9th just commented on this joint
@whatsmyname yes what you say is true about Marcus Garvey being in the tenth percentile of black leaders, but if you really wanna get smart with it, Marcus Garvey was not aligned w/ the “talented tenth”. The talented tenth favored integration over separatism, elitism over working class leadership etc… Marcus Garvey did not associate w/ the “talented tenth” even though you would consider him b/c he was a black leader. Him and W.E.B Dubois were at odds b/c of these ideological differences.
act proof is ill
I never comment here…but BEING the fact we are talking about MY people…I believe I have to say SOMETHING….
Actual Proof and I decided to choose individuals who represented the Talented Tenth of our people……leaders, musicians, activists, public servants, ANYONE who displayed a different way or expressing art or method of thinking, and had a mission that was visionary. I am fully aware of WHAT the TT is and WHO created the ideology, but at this point we feel that all of our black visionaries belong to that 10 percent of individuals.
Don’t be surprised to see a picture of GWENDOLYN BROOKS tomorrow, or Robert Sengstacke Abbott the next day…..or Ms. Fannie Lou Hamer the day after that….
Thanks for listening…
Thanks, Paul F. Tompkins.
Whatsmyname, lol decent argument but ehh not there yet
“In his later life, W.E.B. Du Bois came to believe that leadership could arise from many levels, and grassroots efforts were also important to social change …..”
Thank you 9th!
This beat is too dope
THANK YOU BASEDGOD
No prob sift and no snark to whatsmyname, lets just be clear. @9thWonderful, I appreciate the angle you’re attacking this concept. Don’t let the alias fool you, I as a black man understand the significance of this concept. Back to the music, 9th you did it again. I’ll be anticipating the FreEP.
9th Wonder fell off. GTFOH I admit this far from his best beat
im feelin this
that werent 9thwonder -____-
terrible mixing..
This is crazy! Why are there people in here spreading hate? I mean if you don’t like it, then keep that to your self. I have a little nephew and niece that are now learning to read, and when I share this stuff with them, I hate that they can now understand what you all are saying. Sew that up or save that for your private convos.
