Well, I must say some were not flagrant but they're were some that were just darn nasty. And he got calls on him for just breathing.

"Though Kueis video does not attempt to speculate on the root cause of Lins perceived treatment, much of the ensuing discussion has gravitated toward Lins race."

I saw this in the article.....

This won't be discussed of course here, because there aren't any cool Asian rappers;)

Hahahahahaha I like far east movement. Especially turn up the love.

Wonder how this is going to pay out in the NBA. Never hear Asian people speak about racism. Wonder are the same vjers going to call asians cry babies now?

Wow, never heard of this guy. Did you read the story? He grew up a poor area of drugs in crime on the outskirts of Tokyo. I'm unsure as to why rap is so appealing to the poor. I guess it's the idea of an outlet, a way to tell your story, but some hand just turned it to money making only.

I just read it as well. I think rap is just something that people are drawn to since it's outside of regular life.

It's really simple if you think about it. Most rappers that talk about poor living grew up in a place most poor folks can not only relate to, but are still living there. You know rappers love to say what street they grew up on and so forth. Nelly had folks for the first time being proud they were from STL and that country grammar talk is STILL being used back at home to this day.
