From what I understand about American History, African Americans weren't allowed to be 'famous performers', so white people would just put black makeup on their face, and pretend to be black ppl. They would basically 'mock' black humans, resulting in a 'hella racist' display. It seems like at the VMAs, a pretend awards show/meme generating event, Will.I.Am wore a 'blackface costume' even though he is already black.
Sorta weird how African American artists are more successful than white artists [via hip hop music]. Still confused by Mikey Jax going all 'white face' before committing suicide, but still seems like Will.I.Am is 'mad controversial' [via already being black]. Do u think he 'understands what he is doing', or is he 'just trying to look cool.'
Feeling kinda confused. Maybe some sort of 'self-aware' commentary on how he is a black performer, and he is 'in black face' according to white people. Maybe he just got off some sort of 'time machine'
Wonder if Will.I.Am is 'the ultimate blipster.'
Think he is probably just from the future or something. Seems to have brought back a futuristic black woman who is 'trying to ride the slutwave of the future.'
R u pissed at Will.I.Am?
Is what he did 'unchill'?
Do u think he is a 'pure artist' and h8rs just don't 'get' him?
Does this mean 'blackface' will be a chill Halloween costume?
Should the African American community 'banish' him from their clan, and make him wear white face?
Will MTV ban African American artists and force Justin Bieber to wear a blackface costume?
In the future, will all 'black people' merge with robots, and have post-black skin?
Will Will.I.Am ever top his hologram appearance during Obama's election?
Should Obama wear post-blackface to win the 2012 election?
